Greatest Page requirements confusion, please.

So I read that any thread with 5 or more recs goes to the Greatest page, and yet one of mine with 6 recs as I type this (none of which are my rec as I don't rec my own threads) and yet not on the Greatest page.

Is this because I'm no longer a star member? Is there some other criteria I'm unaware of?

They raised it to ten after the election. hrmjustin Dec 2012 #1

So why does it still say 5? CaliforniaPeggy Dec 2012 #3

They have yet to correct it yet. Why they have done this I do not know? hrmjustin Dec 2012 #4

It seems as though you really need 10 recs to make the Greatest Page. But the requirement still says 5.

It has nothing to do with your not being a star member.

I am completely puzzled as well.
