Then you either made it up, or open 30 windows at a time, then vote as the panels load in which case that's not really 30 seconds. It'd take at least 5 minutes to do all that.

Forget about it Cereal and just ignore the guy. He's a failed abortion and he lives for this crap. Seriously man, if you don't respond to his posts he has nothing to feed on. The only problem is he's too ignorant to get the message. All dogs and cats have to live with fleas. ^_~

Oh dear, I seem to have finally stumbled upon teh EGPFC rank.

ABOUT FREAKIN' TIME.

:::fakes a 1000 blam/1000 save screenshot to commemorate teh moment:::

Now if only I could find a way to get more blams and ACTUALLY have 50:50 blams and saves again... I'll get 'em evened out sooner or later, I'm just having fun with teh rankups, slow as they may be coming.

I might actually get motivated, especially with Thanksgiving and Christmas related time off from work soon... to b/p a lot more for gfoxclock in the near future.

That's if FFXII doesn't eat up all the rest of my 2006 free time from 10/31 onward (which is a very real possibility #;-}>).

Thanks, my namechangery friend. I almost always look like Recon. We're both huge fans of the neutral aura, we've both got around the same amount of posts, and that's been true for over a year now... and ever since we got up high in the exp ranks, we're both often sharing the same level. He'll level up before me, of course, and then we'll be SOMEwhat different for awhile... but eventually I level up to the same level as him and it keeps on going.

It'll be interesting to see with the new 60 level system, but it's quite likely we'll be 1-2 levels apart there, instead of 0-1 levels apart like with this classic 30 level system... so perhaps there will be less Recon/gfox similarity at that point. Hooray?

(I always rely upon how sigs look to tell people apart quickly while scrolling through topics, anyway, but more avatars will certainly help as well).

YAYETH!

Hey, it's not as if you'll lose levels. :) You can count me in as one of the whiners, too, BTW; even though I'm not level 9 anymore, I'm not very happy with the current system. I don't mind others being higher levels than I am, but I'm not happy with the fact that there's half a dozen levels I will - basically - never be able to reach at all. Whether the addition of 30 more levels will fundamentally change that is another question, of course...

Of course it won't. Instead of 6 levels you'll never be able to get to, there will be 12 levels instead.

The tradeoff is that instead of getting to experience 24 levels, you'll get to experience 48 instead.

It's the same diff, relatively speaking, though. It doesn't really "change" anything. Just provides more variety.

More variety is USUALLY a good thing, especially if the design of most of the 60 levels is great. Then I'll be happy. But if there's still a buncha crappy levels like the current level 23... then it might not really improve much of anything. I remain open-minded, and we'll just have to wait and see, yanno?

That can't possibly be true.

Because according to Wade's posts about the whistle glitch fix, 99%+ of the people above a normal whistle had silver. Hardly anyone had bronze, gold, or deity.

And if the levels are fixed now... I really doubt that 99% of the people above a normal whistle have DEITY now.

If you told me 33% have silver, 33% have gold, and 33% have deity I'd still think that was likely inaccurate, but certainly far closer to the truth.

As a silver who was near gold for the past two years, I resent the implication that somehow silvers becoming deity makes deity a worthless rank now.

I kinda wish I'd gained gold at some point on my own merits, but I appreciate that instantly jumping to deity, especially when I've hardly marked any reviews in the past year... and marked NO flashes since like June 2005... = I was pretty badass in 2003/2004.

Yeah, he's just falling further and further back. It will be interesting to see if it continues.

I don't think Pimp will stop completely, but maybe he'll start missing 10 exp here and there more often.

I know I certainly plan to do that, but more intentionally than by accident, once I'm comfortably #1 on RG in exp (I'm still #2 currently, DaFreak, the legendary #1 of RG, retired in July).

Why are you talking about proof of you being the top user? I may not be around very much, but trust me... I've known for months that you had the most whistle points, you were the freakin' deity long before this change in the system happened. #;-}> See, I check 100s of profiles every month while making my pentalist.

I don't think you understood the point of my post in the slightest.

Look up at the post of yours I quoted. You said "deity is now as common as silver was and is." That is what I was saying "That can't possibly be true" in response to. I think you thought I was saying it to the "big congrats" part, which I wasn't replying to at all. O_o

I understand that the point of your post back on 10/11 was that you feel deity has been undervalued, degraded, or whatever other word you want to call it because there are so many deitys now, instead of just one, be they ramagi, you, Newgrundling, Joe, or whatever other deserving whistle heroes of the golden/deity past NG has had since 2003 when the whistle system started.

(...It's kinda like how when I hit EGSC, I was #6. And now there are 70+ EGSCes. It's just not the same to get to it now as when I did in early 2004, of course.
... But if I said "Jesus, EGSC is so worthless now. There's as many EGSCes now as there were EG Privates back before ramagi hit EGSC..."
... Then I'd be totally wrong or smoking crack or something.)

What I was contesting about your post wasn't that deity was cooler back before this change in the system (of course it was), and it's not that you weren't the one and only deity quite recently (of course you were)... it was simply this:

There is no way that, as you said, "deity is now as common as silver was and is," because there were 10s of thousands of people with silver whistles back before the change. And even if there's 100 or 200 deities now... hell, even 500 deities now. 500 deities now is still not as many people as the thousands and thousands of silver whistles we used to have.

That's all I was getting at with the "99% of people with whistles above normal were silver under the old system. Nowhere near 99% of people with whistles above normal are deity now. Hell, I doubt even 33% are. So there's no way there's more deities now than their USED to be silvers." Is that more understandable now? I thought it was to begin with from my 99% thing in the original post, but apparently it wasn't... I think that's because you totally misunderstood what my "that isn't true" part was in response to and got defensive because you thought you had "yet another doubter" on your hands or something.

Are there really that many people going around questioning that you're the #1 whistler/review marker or something? Jebus.

That can't possibly be true.

It seems about 100 users now have diety. I'm not even sure about the gold. It blew my mind to find diety on my profile when I opened it up tonite however.

(cough)deity(cough)

I've heard that "just over 100" count quoted and mentioned as well.

yes Washu you did a great job at the flagging. You were in fact my hero. I still think they should have something that shows the top flagger. When you're #1 out of more than a million users, thats something to crow about.

Back under the old system, we didn't need that. Everyone knew who had the deity whistle because they could see it in the profiles. NOWADAYS, yes... a top 50 list would be quite welcome.

But please, let's have our priorities straight. VP is a much older stat, and we still don't have VP ranks in our profiles or a top 50 VP list.

And hell, at least whistles are a sort of rank, and everyone has that in their profile... VP just gets a number, with no basis for comparison except that users like Captain Bob, Newgrundling, myself, and Wylo have been making SURE there's a basis for comparison for years now in making a user-run VP list. ;_;

So, is my diety whistle worth mentioning?

What is this "die-T" thing you folks keep talking about? #;-}>

Don't mean to pick on you specifically, Ivan, I saw at least three users in this topic in the past day or so spell it diety, but your post is the only one I'm replying to, so... ah wells.

Yet being the operative word, yes.

But hopefully by the time deity gets way too overcrowded, the admins will add new whistle ranks to the system. Mmm.. blue and green and purple and... oh my, so many whistles.

They should just add a scale to show you how many points you have, washu probably has more then double then some of the deities, but I think hey should make the old "only one person can have rank" something along the line of "sacred" or "legendary" then all the current deities would be reverted to a rank called platinium, then deity and sacred will be like the old gold and deity.
