God is a personal friend of mine X. Woohoo! Just cracked 6,000 blam points. Man I'm tired. Stayed up all night playing video games (FF9). Too tired to cook so it's delivery time. Just hope I stay awake long enough to pay for the order (fell asleep twice before but I order from these guys so much they didn't mind). Waiting on my relief now. I wish I had Dorothy's ruby slippers on. I'd click my heels together 3 times and say "There's no place like home, there's no place like home". Then I'd be magically transported to my house. Either that or I'd be labeled a cross-dresser.

Woah, your whistle level is already 'deity', which i presume is the same as saint. You must have been blowing the whistle a lot!

I started on the bronze level and i've seen people starting on silver. I think the number of times you've blown the whistle and flagged abusive reviews before the idea was implemented are counted.

That's correct, I did. But last night, I decided to get a head start, and obviously it worked.

how many time's do you need too blow the whistle too "blow up" any way?? =)

Man, that would suck if the whistle stat was based on a curve. Can you still get points by blowing the whistle on protected submissions that have abusive reviews?

No problems X, you know I was kidding. I just did a random assessment of your point gain within a 5 day period (give or take several hours, yeah I keep stats too), and then did the same for myself. These are the totals I got.
XkwiziTOnE: 506 points
Recon_Rebel: 573 points
You must have just cranked it up a notch. Shit bud, you shooting for the top 10 or something?

Wow I got that many? Dang maybe I should keep up with the amount of points I get in a week or so - cause I usually let the blam/protect points just roll on in......about the Top 10, I honestly dont know I want to try and secure myself at the top 20 cause I might be busy in the next upcoming weeks and I might not be here to deposit points, i hope i will but i doubt it, plus i just want to keep up with the points overall........but on another note wow you have an abundant amount of points R_R (if you dont mind me callin ya that...) you are on a roll there.....

As long as you don't mind me calling you X (lol). Nice choice of gifs bud. I put up the cheetah and you put up the bionic Sabre-Tooth Tiger. That's just a little unfair.

Haha! What's really unfair is my right clicking on that black panther of yours. Now where did you find that little treasure? I'll file this one with my other cats. You wouldn't believe how many gifs & jpgs I have of frogs. I must have all of Larry's extended family here.

Well, I went from normal to silver overnight, and I didn't blow the whistle at all, and I'd estimate I marked about.... 50 to 60, maybe more, reviews as abusive (marked 10 to 20 helpful along the way, too, heh).

For anyone who needs tips, it's actually pretty easy if:

A) you focus on the top 50 list, where reviews come in the fastest,

B) check out the top 10 reviewed movies from portal stats,

and C) if you find an outwar/whatever spammer, go into their profile (if they have one), and go to their reviews. With only a few exceptions, ALL their reviews tend to be the same exact link spam.

A couple times it was an actual normal NG user turned to the dark side after a certain date. It's creepy... like a borg invasion or something. :::shudders:::

Anywho. Interesting that it's "deity," not "saint."

Also interesting that arrows dropped so much. I'm wondering if you only drop from making unsuccessful whistles/abusive marks, or... if it drops after a day of you being inactive. We shall seeeeee... (I'll check the top 50 protectors list's profiles in a few days against the update I just made, as I noted everyone's whistle level from today, including yours)

I have finally made it! Top 200 b/s'ers! That's been one of my goals for some time now. I think I might drop in the next couple of days though, what with those days being the weekend and all... But I just have to keep the steady pace and progression will follow. w00tage!

Nicely done Mr_James! Congratulations. I've been flagging a ton of abusive reviews and I still have this shitty red whistle. I guess I'll just have to be patient until the next rollover.
