Color Me Purple!

[brass]

Can't believe that I was missed the moment I became an official "Preferred Member" - sometimes in the last couple of hours.
Where are the baloons? Where's the confetti? How come Kevin isn't sharing some of his dancing girls?
The following summarizes my experience over the last year with my new friends at PipesMagzine:

"Color Me Purple!"
Here you go:

Congratulations.

Well done!
There are two key things one must do to reach such an exulted position: stay alive and add very little to the threads, very often. My choice of course.
Failing in the first is impossible to overcome. If the second gives one problems, turn to the old standby and obsessively post what you are smoking.

Congrats Brass! I'm looking to that day myself

 

[woodsroad]

Now you are Preferred!

But...by whom?

 

[brass]

Woodsroad, obviously by those possessing good character and taste! :wink:
Of which there are many here. You can tell who falls into the above group by determining if they agree with me.
:worship: Over 3600 posts in less than two years?

Congrats. Now you will learn about the Sinister Six.
They have frequent ceremonies that are quite disturbing.
I reported about one here: http://pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/breaking-news-sinister-six-may-now-be-seven

I am but a piker compared to others, but I'll let you in on a secret to help you on your way: Never let anyone get the last word in!

Do double posts count as 1 or 2?
And is the elevated tag a result of number of posts, quality of posts, or is there a committee issuing invites?
Congratulations, and I look forward to crawling with you before long!

 

[puffy]

I'm working on my Exalted Grand Poobah status. The requirements are stiff. #42:Teach an Aborigine To Smoke Mixture 79 is particularly challenging.

That step sucks... fortunately the requirements on either side are fairly straightforward.
#41: French braid your daughter's hair.

#43: Kickstart a run on a previously un-hoarded tobacco
Harris and Peck tackled step #43 with aplomb in The Great Klondike Gold Rush of 2014. http://pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/klondike-gold-flake ... Shysters!
