I'm just glad I'm through the level 9 gap.
I just prefer lvl 9 than 10. Level 9 looks more baddass

arg, you too listend to dave >_< he was just kidding, it was put into the collection the first day it was made :P dave just said that because i didn't point out that it just hit 1,000,000 views, and i assumed people would have figured that out, if dave didn't go and be a smart ass. i bet i still get a bunch of congrats on "rhythms collection" because no one actually reads this thread. they all just copy and paste other peoples lists, and get a +1 post count and hope someone notices them.

of course i do not feel this way about all of you, i love you very much, but there are some out there... ¬_¬

oh yeah, and uhhh, thanks to you and penguin-link for the congrats thusfar, i told penguin-link via PM though :P

tripple colon : : : i hate dave : : :

The highest *Elite Guard* rank, yes, but nothing says that there can't be higher ranks that aren't part of the EG.

It is just my opinion, but I think that I'd like the status quo to remain. I know that people like you (and soon me as well) will have no further targets for ranks. To be honest, the rank has never bothered me, but look at the perspective of a n00b. When they look at the FAQ, they see 60,000 points as a horrendously daunting target to reach - Hell, there aren't many accounts to reach that, are there?

When I joined 3 years ago and I started B/Ping some 3-6 months later, I looked at the FAQ and saw 30,000 points and was stunned as to how long I'd have to work at it. I'm still here, but look at the B/P ranks list and see the users who have tried and fallen by the wayside.

(I don't see why an Elite Guard Private must necessarily be above a Police Captain, for example).

Well, generally you're in a more dangerous position, being in the Army. Lots of kids want to be Soilders rather than Police.

Indeed... but you're not an EGSC yet, so you don't yet know how it feels to have no new ranks left anymore to attain. :P Getting to the next 10k (40k, 50k, 60k, 70k) still feels like an achievement, but a) it takes a long time and b) it's only in your mind - you don't get a new icon, a new rank, more VP or anything.

Well, I'm happy to know that when I get my EGSC badge, I'll be a top 75 VPer, so that's always a comforting thought. Maybe the lure of more VP for a few extra ranks would create some ranks lower in the system and push the threshold for EGSC up to maybe 40k, with a 75% VP rise. I don't want to be greedy or push away potential B/P champs (If they want to pass me, they will)

Maybe they'll also correct the unbalanced VP shift from EG Lieutenant General to EG General. The biggest VP rise should logically be for General to Supreme Commander. Anyone else noticed that?

Ah that's pretty good. I got like 60 on the day but only 40 of that was on NGLog. I'll get about a 30/day average. Good old college exams sucking my time away. :D

Well, I had a decent day, because I didn't have much to get in my way - a quiet morning and lunch hour was really busy for the portal, a quiet check before leaving for the gym and then checking every half-hour through the evening during the break in the film - See No Evil, Hear No Evil

Start with a hatchback - Seat Ibiza, Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa, Peugeot 106 / 206 etc. Try shopping artound on Auto Trader for deals, but make sure you check the engine for oil leaks, body for rust and take it for a test drive

Thanks for the advice, I've got a few gear head type friends. I'll consult and get them to help me out, I just gotta find one now.

Well, the Parkers car guide should help - choose a car with a low IG (Insurance group), so it costs a lot less. Mine is IG 4, but the Golf I wanted was about 8.

That was a much bigger percentage of your total B/P than it was of mine, so congratulations

hard luck coop.

I call it Ironic - I voluntarily took a week off from the Sunday team to be with my girlfriend - we're going for a meal with her mum's family (My girlfriend's uncle is back from Houston for 2 weeks with his wife and kids, so we'd better say hi)

I thought "It doesn't matter, I'll play on Wednesday", but the Wednesday skipper obviously though "It's ok, Coop can play Sunday", so dropped me. I've pissed off the Saturday captain, so have probably lost my place there until a week on Saturday, when he'll be desperate, as most of the teams are running to Wembley to watch our local football team play for the FA Trophy.

Your lucky you've got internet access most of the time, I've only got it if and when I got to college. Also means I've gotta bring my laptop in, lots of hassle etc. And the weekends I'm never at home so no access unless it's really late at night. Everything is working against me ;p
But come the summer......

I will, I forgot bout insurance, god my age group is screwed in that regard. Like I'm gonna crash something that costs that much anyway :(
