Whats the trick to getting Top Contributor status?

They have no Trick to get T.C. (Top Contributor), Sorry, I wish I know and also want to have T.C. too

Starred!

Good Question!

The Top Contributor Badge is awarded for high contributions in a single category. You can have up to three categories. The exact qualifications are kept secret but rumors indicate that it is a minimum of 10% best answers and about 40-50 individual answers in a single category in a month. There are no statistics available on answers or best answers in a category. You will have to keep track yourself if you ever want to try to figure out the system.

There is no 'trick'. You just have to concentrate in a category, not spread yourself around. And don't stick to P&S (which does not give them). BTW, stars don't give anybody any points.

From the Help pages:

'A Top Contributor is a member of the Answers community who has shown that they are knowledgeable in a particular category. Each Answers user can be a top contributor in up to three categories.'

Rumor says you need around 45-50 answers in one month IN THE CATEGORY, with 10% of them being Best Answers. Updates are made on Mondays.

You have to have best answers in a certain category...........
