ActiveRain Milestone – 1,004 Called Shots

By Michael Setunsky

I looked back in the archives and found Brad Andersohn’s post introducing the new Called Shots feature. Here is Brad's definition:

I started doing called shots after reading a post written by Liz and Bill Spear, It Wasn’t A Perfect Game, But We Got 300! Called Shots That Is!. When they posted this on their blog, I had not suggested any posts up to that time. Their post was written on January 19, 2011, so it took me five days short of two years to hit the 1,000 milestone.

We all know that ActiveRain is more than points and Called Shots, but I thought it would be interesting and fun to see if I could pick posts that would be featured. It also gave me an opportunity to accept the challenge and meet my object to read more posts. I read a lot of great posts since I joined ActiveRain in February of 2008.

Thanks ActiveRain for making the site available so we can learn from our peers, generate some business and blog for a purpose. Whatever your reason for participating on ActiveRain, keep blogging and have a good time doing it.

Hi Judi: I'm not that busy any more. I've decided to retire from the business. Commercial real estate has been depressed in my area for a couple of years now, so I decided to retire. Alive and well doing things I enjoy. Thanks for asking.

You definitely know a good one when you see it, Michael!  I have 800+ but, can't remember the last time I called one!  I need to fine-tune my 'calling!'

Michael - that is quite a record.  I must have missed something.  Can we still do it.  Suggest is no longer there.

When Bob Stewart was introducing the changes last summer, he said taht the "like" button would be replacing the "suggest" button in order to bring us more inline with other social media platforms. 

I am not sure it we still get credit for called shots though.

Bob Crane Thanks, I wasn't aware of the reasoning behind the change.

I just checked, I don't think they are giving credit for called shot anymore.

Seeing as I have zero called shots I imagine it's going to take a very long time to reach such a milestone.
