He distributed 7212 merits in those two meriting spree alone.
He distributed 7793 merits in total to the art thread.

And thus it will be known as the "great airdrop of 2019". Its nice to see some users who wouldn't normally get merit through a different means which still requires effort to be made. Hopefully, this encourages these users to push on, and start contributing more to the community. Bitcointalk offers opportunities to its communities that you don't see anywhere else.

I got 20 only, and I am so disappointed.
I reckon, from what I see from merit distribution, that Theymos liked some different kind of works, but to me it is beautiful, and I am using it as wallpaper on my devices (even tough I admit it's a little bit confusing).

I'm just putting an assumption out there maybe he'll be considering those with 10+ or whatever. It would be nice if he rewarded the badges to only exceptional pieces or potentially offering badges to those who excelled in a certain field of art. For example, hand painted, digitally painted, and poems Wink

Nah, I'm just kidding. Hopefully, these badges are kept somewhat rare, but enough to not just disappear because of users going inactive. I hope to see these badges in 10 years from now, and it can remind us of the 10th anniversary.
