Come on theymos, I think it's time to add few more merit sources on the forum and strongly believe that "Last of the V8s" should be one of them. I can't remember if I was the last person who was added into merit source at May 14, 2019. So it's almost a year I can't remember if admin added any new merit source since there is couple of well deserve users including OP in waiting list. Users are increasing rapidly and its quite necessary to genarate more merits as well.
Support OP, hope you will get in soon.
On November 14, 2019, there was a pretty big change in the number of merit sources (from 90 to 98.. some merit sources were removed as merit sources, too on that date, I believe) and the quantity of merit sources in the allocations of various merit sources were increased by 175% of the average monthly amount that they had been using in the previous 6 months (something like a use or lose adjustment).
