There are a couple of stats that help to understand your meriting habits, which after all, are potentially part of ones credentials when postulating to become a Merit Source. Without flooding your thread with them, here are the most significant ones, that I find speak rather well as to your candidacy:
Youve awarded sMerit to 155 different profiles, giving out 496 sMerits in total (as of last Friday), with a hammer time consistency average of 1,01 sMerits per TX.
Specifically on your local board, youve sent sMerit to 68 different profiles, awarding 322 sMerits with an average of 1,02 sMerits per TX.
The above is the distribution of your sMerits over the different boards.
