well it's allot harder too get a new level then a new rank so that's why it's so special when you level up

Yes, it's much harder to raise in xp level. It's also much less interesting of a process. Vote 5 movies every day, get 10 points a day, wait 50 days or so to rise from level 9 to 10... yawn.

B/P is a lot more fun. Watch movies, judge their quality, then wait in suspense to see if others agreed with your vote. I wish B/P ranks determined the base voting power instead of xp level, since dedicated B/Pers are probably the busiest judges here.

Level 9 and already an Elite Guard Private. Nicely done Impetus. I believe experience points have more impact on voting power than blam/protect points.

Thank you.

Yes, experience sets the base score of voting power, and b/p level adds a percentage modifier to that score. I'd prefer the two to be switched. However, that would be unfair to longtime oldbies who have been racking up experience since well before there was b/p points.

Whatever the values of these statistics, they're still a fun and clever way to get users of a site hooked. (I know I am.)And Newgrounds stats are 100 times better than Outwar-type garbage. ~_^

Congrats! Won't be long till you hit 12,500 and that nice Captain's badge.

Let's compare, shall we?

About to break 11,000 b/p points, cracked the top 600 users for experience (awhile back), will be hitting level 13 in about a month, and my popularity shot from the 200s last week to 94 today, and I also haven't posted much, so...

My guess is some 50-100 range popularity people slipped into the 100s, and made room for new top 100 popularity people like yourself and me.

Yep, B/P points are kewler to get than just depositing your points everyday...
And as you say, the real voting power should be to those, I agree. Even though exp points don't give you so many "advantage"...

i wanted too post this like 4 hours ago but i stop trying afther 8 errorsif that waould hapen it would be too easy to get a high voting power

When for the love of tuna casserole am I going to see my gold whistle? How many reviews is it going to take? As long as these outwar freaks keep hitting the site I'll eventually get there. You show 'em how it's done Whip!

Hold strong Normal Red Whistle! Toot toot!

Mr_James do you search for abusive reviews to flag or leave it to others? Your last post has me wondering.

I've never made a big effort to search for abusive reviews. Pfft, I've never made any effort at all! However, I DID just mark a submitted Flash as stolen. It was called Mr Nice and you should remember the movie Recon because I posted it in the RPG Club board where you responded with a gif of Austin Powers dancing. I really like that movie and had extreme feelings against the guy who submitted it as his own.

But yeah, I've pretty much never done any work in the area you're speaking of.

I'm still stuck at silver =)
How exactly do the whistle levels go up and down? Newgrundling mentioned something about it being graded on a curve. So if it's time based wouldn't the people who have garbage whistles eventually go back to normal if they stopped flagging submissions?

Each new level past 10 is the same amount harder than the previous, because all the levels are the same amount of exp apart, but the higher you go, the more steep humantarget's depositing is making your climb each freakin' day. Let me illustrate:

here are the average point increases to get to these levels each day humantarget deposits. (to get to level 12, for instance, it was 2 one day, then 1 the next, then 1 then 2 then 1 then 2 then 1... 2 1 1 2 1 2 1 in other words, and that averages out to 1.429 per day)

level10 0.488
level11 0.952
level12 1.429
level13 1.909
level14 2.375
level15 2.857
level16 3.333
level17 3.800
level18 4.286
level19 4.750
level20 5.250
level21 5.714
level22 6.200
level23 6.667
level24 7.143
level25 7.625
level26 8.091
level27 8.571
level28 9.048
level29 9.512
level30 10.000

As you can see, there is no major jump in the experience point increase per day to get to any of the 30 levels, as you climb the ladder. Just an approximately 0.5 increase each time.

It's just that when you add in those increases, the # of days to get to each level goes up and up. i.e. it might take you 55 days to get to level 11, then 60 for level 12, 65 for level 13, 70 for level 14, 75 for level 15. etc. etc. steadily up and up.

Oh, and speaking of levels...
