IMO you should be a TI by now. You're the most well-versed person on this site when it comes to polypores. I think that we should have either a trusted identifier nomination thread or a poll on the issue, because democracy.

What exactly constitutes a TI badge? Mrcloudy is without doubt an extremely knowledgeable member, but mostly in the polypore area, as Maynard said. So, does the badge more reflect the reliability and accuracy of the mushrooms you DO identify, or your ability to identify mushrooms in general, or both? I would be interested to hear from you Alan, or another MH&I mod who gives the badges.

Both.
Most importantly, they are trusted not to steer anyone wrong. And they pretty much never do, I click the TI badge when I see > 99% accuracy.
