Just made Elite Guard Praporshchik. Don't know why they didn't call it Warrent Officer, but to each his own... and they do own the site (Tom & Wade). In any case my next stop is the badge I've been waiting on for a looooong time. 1,500 points to get there and I'm gonna enjoy every one of 'em.
Cause Praporshchik sounds cooler, of course. I never liked the sound of Warrant Officer. For one thing, he's not a real officer, right? For another, warrants are things police officers put out for arrests, so why the hell is a military man (who's not a MP) goin' around with it in his rank name? Ah well. #;-}>
Anyway, congrats a bunch! You've got the rank I want to get to at the minimum. I'm not even to Sergeant Major yet, though I've just passed chaotic (again), and now Spancker and Newgrundling, too. I don't know if I'll still be #29 by 6 AM eastern tomorrow when the rank #s are updated in profiles, but I'm #29 right now. :::keeps on truckin':::
Say hi to the 5 punks sitting around twiddling their thumbs between 8000 and 9500 for me, eh? (I really really would have expected HeRetiK to rank up by now, but he's been sitting in the 9300s for like a month, while helldoll and who knows who else passes him... move, man, you're almost to Second Lieutenant!)
