    Not a big deal but it seems that BeerAdvocate isn't counting one of my recent reviews. The number of my beer reviews was correct until around a week ago. I comment on every 50 reviews, so I counted back, and yup, off one. Wondering if this is a glitch after the server update. No biggie either way, but still thought I'd inquire.

    There doesn't seem to be a glitch, and your stats match what's in the database based on the queries being performed across all users.

    Perhaps some duplicate entries were merged (where you had reviews for both) thus changing your overall numbers?

    Did you meet the criteria for a enough characters in your review? I think it has to 250

    I'm guessing that either a beer was dropped from the database (maybe it was a cider, etc. originally listed as a beer) or that I reviewed two beers that were originally listed as separate entries but were recently combined as the same beer (one perhaps as an alias now).

    My review stats are off now (review #1350 is review #1349, etc.) and my OCD is acting up but I'll survive.

    FYI, review figures came back to "
    For wherever reason, my review numbers came back to "normal" recently. Just thought I'd give you a heads up.

    Nothing has changed on our end that would either cause or "fix" this, but I'll consider this resolved.
