People are moving up the ladder quite frequently recently. Congrats @dangerzone641 @8l23ub 
Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong, but rookies need 3 events to receive placement, right?

@Antares26 just so you don't think there's a problem your 3rd week is not official until the week 4 event is finished.

The leaderboards show me as D2G but I have no idea of what my handicap is. Can anyone help?

It's 1.857, look at the official gtp registry thread. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/official-gtp_registry-gt6.297257/

Positive handicaps don't affect your listed handicap. I asked the exact same question the other day about positive handicaps. Here's the relevant quotes about it:
"your handicap (hc) can only go down (with neg. hc results) and will not increase when you receive a positive hc result"
"Oh, and we do track both the published handicap, as well as what the handicap would be with positive results factored in, but don't publish this other value. It gives us a good data point when considering demotion requests (which only happens about once or twice a year)."
So, if your handicap is listed as 1.857, then you are D1...maybe there is a delay or something in it...if it only became that last week, then it won't be effective till this week I think as everything is always one week behind (if memory serves). Hope that is understandable and explains things

@Jfrod what @nursemorph stated is correct except when determining someone's initial rookie placement. That rule does not (or could not) apply since the results of the first 3 completed events are used to determine it.
But I think that is irrelevant in your case because you have not been a rookie since week 92.
I'm not sure what the explanation is but we can ask the expert for clarification @Vaxen.

@Antares26 @Dragonwhisky and @G_Parrilla congrats for your promotions mates

I know for a fact that you and @Ph1sher are aliens disguised as humans. I was just abducted.
Just look at week 101, first time in a while you entered a WRS event and then you finished on the podium.
