Certainly, but I doubt most people who're active today will still be in 20 years. :) Or, for that matter, in 50 years (again, assuming NG itself survives for that long).

I didn't mean it like that, Recon and you know it! I'm not trying to pension you off, but you are probably the only user on NG above the age of 30 who actually admits it. I'm not knocking you for it, I'll admit how old I am when I get there, but at 23, I'm already admitting it.

I'll be above 30 in the not too distant future, too. :/

Correct! *hands you a coconut*

Thanks. :) Now I can play King Arthur's horse! ^^

I was only gone for a day, but I did lose internet connection yesterday because of some workers outside trying to fix a water leak in the front garden accidently cut the cable wires thinking it was a root. :S Good thing they managed to fix the cable today.

Today's a great day in NG for me!

14,000 EXP and Elite Guard Major General.

I've been burning the track on getting blams and saves this week. Thanks to the large amount of school-related work that I've been doing on the computer, the NG portal was always a click away.

As of last night, I've been going at a pace of 107.6 points a day.

OMG!!! I got gold and i didn't even know. I just went to my profile and found it. COOL

GOLD WHISTLE

Now for DEITY

. Here's the kicker; only one person could get the blam point... and there was NO such thing as protection points. For example, if you were the 24th person to vote on a crap movie, you wouldn't get the point, but if you were the 25th person, you would.

Oh yeah now I know what you mean, I read about that a few times. I heard that M14-Real-2001 used to #1 back then with several hundred blams also.

20,000 Blams.

ramagi and sizzler were tied for #1 with 1,337 blams each when the system changed to the current one.

It's not my fault that simple things easily catch my attention. And I didn't think that grin was stupid. :(

It's not my fault I've always been bad at playing hide n' seek.

I agree, they should add more whistle levels or make the gaps larger, ah but it's still good to have

LOL! That would be great wolfie! NG could replace the current blam video tune with a revamped version of the hammer song. Even better if they found someone to update the animation too.

the hammer also is a symbol of blacksmithing, of forging and creation - and thus, ultimately, a symbol of purification, too, of cleansing, but also of growing. Rather philosophical, I guess, but that's the associations it evokes for me. :)

I understand the connection with blacksmithing and creation, but you kinda lost me on the purification thing. Are you making reference to the Norse god Thor and his hammer Mjolnir?

... but with the hammer, you can actually work on stuff. It seems like the most appropriate icon for NG to me really. :)

... and the official logo for Newgrounds is a tank. One's purpose is to destroy while the other's is to create. This Yin and Yang philosophy can have you running around in circles if you're not careful. :-P

(Kinda reminds me of Lortzing, too: "Wenn Redlichkeit käme als Waffenschmied / Und schlüg' auf den Amboß, von Glut umsprüht"... :P)

Sorry wolfie, my German is a tad rusty. How about a translation?

OK, I'll stop already, and I'm not actually a fan of opera music, either.

The Song of the Volga Boatmen is awesome on a good set of headphones. Not sure if it qualifies as opera though.

But I do like the hammer, and it certainly seems to say "don't mess with me", too. :)

Also great for cracking walnuts at Christmas!! :-)=

Isn't a Q-tip the same as a cotton bud?

You're right. I stand corrected. *hangs head*

I know Coop. It is Coop, isn't it? Damn. Can't be sure. This premature senility really sucks. ;-)

I'm not trying to pension you off, but you are probably the only user on NG above the age of 30 who actually admits it.

Heh, I've seen a number of people in their seventies but I doubt the age is legit. It's my opinion that most of the users on NG are sixteen and under. Spelling is a big giveaway, haha!

I'm not knocking you for it, I'll admit how old I am when I get there, but at 23, I'm already admitting it.

Heard you had a nasty bout of arthritis recently. Cleared up has it? <3

Roughly eight hours per day, five days per week. I like the way this guy put it better (let me clarify this comment was directed at me).
