As it turns out, this is a good time to revisit the topic of mayorships in Foursquare. But first, a recap of what I already wrote.

And if you stop visiting there, and someone else visits, then it's quite possible that you can lose your mayorship to someone else. I used to be the mayor there, but as I write this the current mayor is Lauren D.

However, this is partially my fault. I'd often stop at that Starbucks on my morning commute, but this year I often use a different route for my morning commute, which means that I don't go by that Starbucks as frequently as I once did.
