Since eMiLy has been doing a great job in the recent weeks, it seems like we are piling up on upgrades.
Since, well me personally I haven’t had to use them on nominations in a hot minute.
I would love to see how many Upgrade all you explorers have banked up. I usually use mine as soon as I get them.
So having 6 upgrades is a LOT for me.
I know @Aquablast64, @AgentX1976 and @Glawhantojar have a metric ton of upgrades. But I’m wondering, does anyone have over 100 banked up? #LetsSee!
I used to have to use them to get a decision. Now I don’t. Every now and then I will throw some on some nominations I want to be first on, but mostly, they just sit now.
I would have had over a hundred except for a few recent experiments. Will let you know when I get there … assuming I remember 
@Trollfarer was aiming for a thousand
I’d be interested to see the upgrades that normal people have not any of you lot 
I didn’t tag you on purpose!! I knew your number would hurt my feelings. And I was 100% RIGHT!!
To be honest, I think my banked upgrades is relatively small compared to people like @Trollfarer. I only recently started banking up upgrades this year, but last year, I spent them like crazy. Ever since the Wayfarer Challenge, I hardly needed to use them, because my turnaround times have been crazy fast.
Hi
I have 1. Already used 3. Started feb 2024
I started in December 2023. I have 10 available (will likely get to 11 today, as I’m almost to the threshold and I’m waiting for agreements to come through) and I’ve used 12 so far.
That you are not normal. That’s a compliment though.
I have had very few upgrades, and it feels like a very low number of agreements vs reviews (and yes I know I’ve not done many reviews overall either).
Whenever I used to try to do a lot of reviews, eg over the pandemic when not much else I could do, I got cooldowns all the time, so now I do like, 5, 10 reviews at a time and then stop.
At this point, i have few reviewing goals. 1000 banked upgrades is next
Whenever normal not-we ask how many P0kerst0pz I’ve made I usually just say I see Wayfarer as collaborative rather than competitive. 
I think there is just not the scope in my area for making hundreds of new waypoints… and I dont travel around tonnes. Most of my gameplay is in quite a smallish area and although Ive done the odd bike ride/walk out further to submit new things, its not a constant hobby of mine. I find so much of the effort is wasted due to rejections (often further out, the only thing to submit is trail markers), so that stops me.
And honestly? I’m trying to give back what I put in, so if I’m submitting, I review, if I’m not, I might have a review break.
I was waiting for you! You are the gold standard! #amazing
