Like I did with the Black Belt I'm making a thread so we can keep track of the Coral belts as people reach this great milestone on Tapology!

The next closest to get Coral are the following, in order of closest to furthest:

  • R1zla
  • Poir420
  • Kalibo
  • OldManGloom
  • CashBrewyn
  • PiercerDan
  • Trevpicks

After those few, everyone else is at least 50,000 points away.

After this coming weekend, you will have 3 new Coral belts!  @R1, @Poir and myself should all obtain one during and/or after this coming weekend contest!

For my 800th post, I shall do a charitable deed for Kalibo and bump this thread, instead of posting in the milestone one.
