10,000 exp, perhaps. But 10,000 reviews, that's a long shot.

And a profile picture, but I still think those alts will never get UOTD. Maybe my alts Toohot100 and Bahamut7 will sometime.

Just a quick note, folks... if you want to get in touch with me, do not PM me.

The reason for that is quite simple - NG's PM notification emails regularly get put into my spam folder, so most of the time, I don't see them. If you want to get in touch, IM me, or leave a message for me in this thread (I usually try to check this one at least once a day).

Otherwise, you may have to wait weeks (or possibly even months) for a reply, depending on how often I remember to check whether I've got any new PMs.

Coop congratulates while hugging the radiator:
RupeeClock: 25,000 B/P; 10,000 Saves; Doublelisted

Without wanting to discourage him from writing more reviews, 250 is a long, LONG way away from 10000. I don't know what his pace actually is, but... well, let's wait until he's sustained it (on average) for half a year or so. Then we can talk about whether 10000 reviews is realistic or not. :)

Well, considering my own target would be 1,000 reviews... maybe it's best if you looked above and read those comments ;)

Any break I get, I'm on the portal. It slowed to 35 yesterday, but that's still above pace for me. Maybe I can salvage a 210 point week.

Here's a dumb question for you....

Instead of sorting through the 1700-some odd posts, can someone tell me WHY we only get 2 EXP per vote? And is there a way to earn extra exp on top of voting?

Thanks.
Eyseicle.

You get 2 exp points per vote because you only get 10 points a day and you have to vote on 5 movies to get 10 points. If you do the math 10 divided by 5 is 2.

Now for my next milestone passed I am now 1111 in EXP not really a big deal though >_<

At 3/2/07 03:09 PM, Eyseicle wrote: can someone tell me WHY we only get 2 EXP per vote?

You don't get 2 exp a vote. You get 10 experience points a day, by voting on 5 Flashes and depositing.

It's 10 a day because it's a nice, round number. That simple.

And is there a way to earn extra exp on top of voting?

Once you've signed up and created a profile, there are no other ways to get experience points, which means you can only get 10 points a day.

Boy... So ten a day... and I've got like 950 points to go before level 10... So 95 days later I'll be level 10?? Seems hardly worth it.

You are wrong there. When once you get to level 9 the EXP you need to get is on a sliding scale so by the time 95 days pass you will need more exp to get to level 10. as you level up even more you will need even more exp and the sliding scale will be even higher then the last level.

Define "sliding scale". Does that mean my EXP goes down over time?

No, there's not (anymore).

At 3/2/07 03:51 PM, Eyseicle wrote: Define "sliding scale". Does that mean my EXP goes down over time?

No, it doesn't; however, the requirements for the various levels slowly go up. If you deposit every day, you'll never actually lose a level (at least not once you have reached it for good), but reaching higher levels will become more and more difficult. See http://planetbob.net/ng/ngxp.php .

On a side note, there's many people who think that this system is ridiculously broken and that it should be changed - not only because it discourages people from keeping on depositing after they reach level 9, but also because it's unfair that a small number of folks get a big bonus in terms of XP (= level = VP) simply because they were here when the XP/level system was still very young.

I'm one of those who've been complaining, myself, and I've been making suggestions on how to change the system, too, but so far, no change seems to be in sight. Oh well.

Just gotta ticket for the biggest Irish festival this year, Oxegen, It will be mental and will mean I will miss my depositing, but It ain't till July so I'll be like level 23 by then

I guess that anything where one person can be on top and make it harder for anyone else just by getting more points would make any system broken. Even without the bonus the few people got when it was possible to get it people would still be complaining because of the increases.

I'm one of those who've been complaining, myself, and I've been making suggestions on how to change the system, too, but so far, no change seems to be in sight. Oh well.

The changes will evenually happen just not right away I just hope I can get to atleast the next level before the changes do happen but I highly doubt it though.
