Now in second place because he was “having all the sex”.
I’ve probably made it plain how I feel about achievements. Namely, I don’t really care for them. But some do, like Raymond “Stallion83” Cox and Stephen “smrnov” Rowe. In particular, Rowe surpassed Cox’s 1.5+ million Gamerscore this 4th of July.
Cox had a good reason, however; Having recently got married, he was on his Honeymoon:

Cox, who owns the Guinness Word Record score (Rowe has stated that he won’t challenge it) has previously stated that he wants to crack a score of 2 million at some point. Considering that he got right back to it as soon as he got back from his honeymoon, I don’t doubt it. Rowe acknowledged his accomplishment in a blog post, stating:
“First off, thanks to everyone who sent messages of congrats, I appreciate it. I think it surprised most of you and myself really as it was never my goal to overtake Stallion83.”
In 2013, just ahead of breaking 1 million Gamerscore points, Microsoft gave Cox a lifetime Xbox Live Gold account, along with an engraved card. I mean, you dethrone the king, you might deserve one too, right? Or not? I don’t know. Rowe does take pride in buying all of his games that he plays for achievements, though. He might’ve helped the economy enough to earn one, all I’m saying.
