How did this question get closed by two diamond moderators? I was under the impression that a single diamond moderator vote to close immediately closed the question.

In January 2012, I didn't happen to be a moderator yet.
Since the ♦ is added to the user names wherever they're displayed, this also retroactively affects all "closed as" messages, leading to:
closed as off topic by slhck♦, Mokubai, Journeyman Geek, Nifle, Sathya♦
Free unicorn for somebody who finds a question closed by five diamond moderators.

3This is the closest I can get to a free unicorn: closed by 4 diamonds, before any of them were moderators.– nhinkle ModCommented Jan 19, 2013 at 21:25

2@nhinkle It's a trick. There are no such questions on SU. Nobody will get a free unicorn.– Daniel Beck ModCommented Jan 20, 2013 at 12:45

@DanielBeck dang. I was wondering if there was a data query for that but I couldn't find it.– nhinkle ModCommented Jan 20, 2013 at 18:03

@slhck I'd argue that the one I found is better, because even though there's one non-mod close voter, none of the mods had diamonds at the time of the closing. IMO that makes it better.– nhinkle ModCommented Jan 20, 2013 at 18:04

SO unsurprisingly only has a maximum of 3, while SF has one question with four moderators, impressive considering they only have 7 moderators total. Now they just need to elect EEAA in the next election.– Daniel Beck ModCommented Jan 20, 2013 at 21:13
