Hi All,
The big green guy here, just wanted to let you all know that we now have the reputation system in place, the reputation system allows you to give a visible pat on the back to those that have helped you or whose information has been helpful.

You will see an icon in every post (Light Blue scales), click this to give the reputation point to whom you think deserves it, a green square appears for a reputation with more and more adding over time.Pretty soon you will see a string of green squares appear in the top right of your posts as your reputation grows and your forum presence!

Good Luck!
The Hulkster!

another option might be to have cell D 242 count C column using the same formula that the yellow conditional formatting uses in D column. I just can't seem to get the formula right.

OK, I figured it out. I created a formula on another sheet to read as follows:

=IF(AND((TODAY()-'Medal Tracker'!C3)>=1095,TRIM('Medal Tracker'!D3)="",NOT(TRIM('Medal Tracker'!C3)="")), 1, 0)

then I did a sum in D242 of all the 1 results.
