Unless he removed some movies a couple of days ago, I doubt it. The flagged review list looks much the same and there's not much in the obituaries today.

I haven't been doing great on NG today. There are a lot of moives which scores are among 1.4-1.8, and it was hard to decide if I should vote 1 or 2. (makes huge difference) In 80% of the time, my vote for such a moive failed bring me points because when I voted for a blam, it was protected, when I voted for a protect, it was blammed. (I could not check the authors' profiles because they were not clickable.) It appears that I have not been for lucky today which is really annoying.

Congrats! Yes, that did happen to me when I got a whistle level up.

Also, I got another thread about me. This was very strange compared to the last one. It was about me using a hats sig and someone trying to make a better sig for me without me even asking him, LOL. I feel so happy. Two threads about him within a month. So that's a good thing for me. Too bad it got locked. Oh well.

Thanks to Bahamut7, -Mazza- and others.

Yes, liljim actually put that up very quickly after it was suggested in the 'NG evolution' topic.

How is everyone feeling today? I had a funy day with my relatives, as we went to an island (which was properly civilized).

Okay SK, there's a number of older guards who use the site computer and their vision isn't what it used to be. Sometimes when I've gone to use Microsoft Word the letters are freakin' huge! Is it possible one of them changed the system settings last night? If so where do I look to reset it? Christ, it's like reading "See Spot Run".

In IE or Firefox, try clicking the View menu and selecting Font Size. IE's default is Medium, while in Firefox you can select "Normal" and it'll reset the font sizes.

Haha, yeah. I've done that too, and I thought the site was going through another change.

So, when are you gonna load AIM on that computer at work, and sign up, so we can talk to you, eh? That'd be nice.

Congrats Joe for level 21, and ramagi for the new exp spot :)

#22. Passing three people so close to the final rank in three days. The ranking screwed up somehow as the list and my profile have different numbers, but tomorrow it's set.

Congrats to TheJoe for leveling up (loooooooong time til the next one) and ramagi for moving up in the exp list.

That's what I thought you thought, but considering how many people have SC and the amount needed just to get on the list is over 20k, only diehard b/p'ers would look at the list regularly.

LMAO, worst movies ever lol. too funny. Actully almost ALL of my 90 Blams were accidents. about 50 of them came from over a year ago when if you blammed something and you were the 200th vote, and even though you voted a 2-5, you still got a blam point.

You poor thing, being forced to blam something. You'll never have to worry about that again.

And the rest is the movies i blammed when i started up my account and I didn't have the save passion going.

So you got about 30 blams when you didn't care about saves? You got the save passion pretty quicky then.

The only movie i remember blamming was when Mr. Rogers died, and some guy made a movie about pissing on his corpse and grave and other nasty stuff.. unacceptable :P

Indeed, your blam was highly deserving.

Not that interesting. 'More Than 100k views' sounds better than 'More Than 99,999 views' or '100,000 views or more'. Even taking into account the other gems could allow a few people to see something wrong, there's so many other people who don't notice that changing it would be a waste of time.

The portal is active today and there have been many quality entries submitted. I had a tough afternoon as 25% of my votes misfired. But I am having a serious run at b/p points right now. (Daily gain: 56) If I work late in the night, I might be able to get 3500 b/p points before sleep. By the way, congratulations on everyone who leveled up.

Took about 6 months to get to this level, and I had it figured out to be the 14th/15th back in October..

10/07/04 You now have 9,338 experience points. You need 809 more to get to level 21.
04/14/05 You now have 11,228 experience points. You need 901 more to get to level 22.

No, there is no way to get more than 10 per day. You still have a long way to go. It will probably take you another three month to reach level 10. :\

ramagi - 36th highest EXP. Hmm, if only HT and around 30 other people could stop depositing. XD
sketch0587 - 100000th viewer of MMZ - The Last Cataclysm. Now that's interesting.
Koobs - Level 9. Well, the long road to levelling up starts now.

That's pretty fun. Not much of an achivement, but a fun number. I honestly think the voice actors could've been better. And it seems like Kagome is one of the most widely used VAs on NG. Maybe she'll become a VA for a studio like Viz, Funimation, ADV, or Bandai. :)

I finally reached rank 18 (Elite Guard Captain), so I got a nice new badge and another 0.11 VP. ^^ Damn, I wish I could spend more time on the portal, though - I think I've had an average points-per-day ratio of less than 60 for the past two weeks. At that rate, it's gonna take forever (or at least almost another month) until I advance again. Bah. >_>

Congrats to:

Dream_of_Duke - 2500 blams
T-squared - Silver whistle
Mazza - top 500 XP users

War of the Portal - Part 4
2 - “Journey”

ramagi set her pace fast as she used a spell to slow time around her to speed herself up. She seemed to journey long and far, watching birds fly ever so slowly across the sky. She took some snacks when she was hungry and drank water when she needed to. She found no submissions lurking across the grassy plains, yet she felt irked at that fact.

She had stayed at Eldarion and Alkador’s house for a few hours, taking what she needed. When finished, she burnt the house which erupted in an enormous eruption of flame due to the large containment of naphthalene. Ignoring her thoughts, she continued towards the geothermal vent. Stopping just before the rise of geothermal vent, she felt the presence of powerful traps laid before the hole. But she did not intend to open it. Thoughts ran through her mind as she remembered how her kingdom, she being the queen, was destroyed by a civil war. With her and her father keeping the knowledge of the ancients themselves, he quickly made her leave the island. Yet her brother watched in anger, hurt and betrayed him greatly. She was going to marry her husband, Pure_Lionheart, who loved her very much.

Detecting the location of the teleportation took her hours and she finally located a spot two miles away. She found it without difficult and noticed the path continued to move in confusing directions, most likely to prevent anyone trying to trace them. Yet, after many days of attempt and work, she found her first clue – a portal stone. It was a very fragmented one and would shatter for those who did not know what to do with it. It had shown that Dobio and the group had been hunting for portal stones, a possibility he was trying to help them learn to wield the Power.

Finding a small grove in a tiny valley, she made her rest there, easily sleeping. She had strange dreams, dreams of YoinK_VineS caressing her thighs, her chest and breathing warm air on her neck. When she felt it was too real, her eyes flicked open and she looked around, finding no one in sight.

The next day, she found a lone submission that charged towards her, only to be destroyed by a pool of flame collected at the ground. Her anger was strong which caused deadly mutations in the Power. Of course, after the destruction of the tower and the death of the Geminus lord, half of the submissions that existed in the world ceased to be. She shuddered at the thought of the lord’s power, most likely greater than that of the black cloud.

Again that night, she had dreams of YoinK_VineS, yet her eyes flicked open and she threw her hand at the wrist that lay over her chest. She gasped as she recognised the man, who quickly stepped back, clearing his throat. He sang in a low, melodic voice.
Oh my love, my darling. I’ve hungered for your touch, a long lonely time.
ramagi sighed as she stood up to face Pure_Lionheart who tangled his arms around her body. “It’s been so long. What happened to you?”
ramagi sighed as she had no choice but to tell of everything that happened. Pure_Lionheart could tell if ramagi could lie and his insistence was too strong to escape.
“Yoink? How dare he hurt you like this?”

Pure_Lionheart stood forwards, hands on hips and head high. “I will take revenge for you; my love.” He ran towards ramagi as he pressed his lips firmly to hers, kissing her passionately, his love never lost for her. Pure_Lionheart smiled as he ran off, with ramagi standing helplessly in her spot. She sighed and sat on the grass as she waited for the air to warm and sun to rise, setting off again to find Dobio. She had to get away from her king-to-be before he did anything else foolish!

After a few hours, she found a single oak tree on a small hill. She walked towards it, finding a trap door carefully hidden beside the huge wooden roots. She used her skill to detect presence of life. She smiled as she knew; she had finally found Dobio.

Thats damn true. ah crap I replied to the wrong post. this is going to be messed up but oh well.

And I'll FINALLY rank up tonight, to Elite Guard Second Lieutenant!

Congrats. Well the next badge for us is the samething but gold woot. It will be some time.
