Why does Bob Jewett have two Solutions achievements while everyone else has one?

[Paul_#_]

If you click on the drop-down menu for Members at the AZ website, it will show many drop-down menus with one called Most Solutions (see screen shot below). In that menu, it shows how many Solutions achievements every AZer has accomplished. Bob Jewett has achieved two Solutions scores while everyone else, one.

This is probably because only Bob has answered a post presented as a Question and not posted as a Discussion or Poll. And, that the original poster of that Question post identified Bob as answering OP's question.

This post is posted as a question and I will identify responders as having answered my question and, they too, can join Bob as rare AZers scoring more than one Solutions score.

Could somebody explain what a SOLUTION is please? Everyone seems to have 1 except a member called Bob Jewett who has 2.

Well, assuming you can see some kind of checkbox by his post, which answers your question,

Has it been established why Bob has 2 and everyone else has only 1?

Brilliant, Paul.

Send me that award! And thank you.

Bob Jewett could go to 3.

 

[Bob Jewett]

I believe the answer is 42.

Send me that award!

I clicked on the Solutions button for you, Wolverine (and this says a lot for an MSU graduate) but nothing yet to show that result on the AZ Solutions page (is moderator and Solutions leader, Bob Jewett, blocking it?)

I believe the answer is 42.

Bob is right---the answer IS 42 but AZ won't let me give two AZers the Solutions achievement. That achievement is up to me and it can only go to one AZer, The Wolverine.

I'm on the leaderboard on my screen Paul. I've only been here two days and feel special already.

In XenForo forums, "solutions" refer to selected answers within question-type threads that resolve the original query. These mark a thread as solved, elevating the chosen reply to the top for visibility.
Question Threads
Question threads allow users to post queries where replies can be voted on or officially selected as the solution, typically by the thread author or approved staff. Once marked, the solution appears prominently, and the thread shifts from "unsolved" status.
User Tracking
XenForo tracks "solutions" as a user statistic, showing how many times a member's reply has been chosen as the best answer. This builds prestige, integrates with leaderboards, and can trigger rewards like trophies.
Forum Configuration
Admins enable this in specific forums by activating question types and answer voting. Unsolved questions can be filtered or highlighted, aiding community moderation and content discovery.

there can be two solutions to a problem and not only one.

for instance:

you have a pig but he has become like a pet so you don't feel good about eating him. solution one, is to not eat him.

solution two, is to only eat say, a leg.

problem solved.

bob may not have a pet pig so likely would not understand this predicament.

Only OP can choose?

Based on over 30000 comments and the next highest is under 5000 comments, i think it's obvious.
Why do you care?

Do I have one?

Thanks Paul. Glad to finally be recognized for my dedicated service.
