I just made Level 10 about a week ago YAY!!!!! I'm currently approaching 1,100 BLAM/PROTECTION points so I'm doing well I guess

There's something I Don't understand about leveling up. Why does the total needed for the next level keep increasing by like a point every day or two??? It makes leveling up harder. Anybody out they know why

Because the required amount to get to a level greater than 9 is calculated using the highest (humantarget) user's exp points, so when they deposit it will go up a little.

I'd have posted this about half an hour ago, but a batch came through that I needed to get past Cap'n_Bob.

IMO this looks much better

really at what rank do you start needing 2000 points too rank up?

Elite Guard Lieutenant Colonel, which is reached at 15500 b/p points.

In fact I think he's a n00b seeking for attention ... did you see his post in the B/P 51+ thread?

No I didn't. I tend to try to ignore such attention seeking posts. Apparently my shield worked over on B/P 51+, even though it failed here in level up! #;-}>

hey gfoxcook i looked in your profile a few minutes ago becouse i wanted too know were you lived and it said that you live in Texas and i all way's tought you lived in canada for some strange reson =P

I think lightning got confused because you said congrats on getting LEVEL 10, and then right afterwards said you're not far from the next RANK, and since you'd just mentioned level 10, lightning assumed you meant level 11, not elite guard private by "next rank."

Because there are 600 points between all the LEVELs right now, and that's surely what lightning was referring to. Cause if he meant EG Private, that's only 400 from 1100 points, not 600. O_o

anywho. #;-}>

You silly boy! I never said anything like that. Maybe you confused my location with Recon's or redrum's?

Anyway, no... I've lived in Houston, Texas, in Kobe, Japan, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and back in Houston, TX my whole life. Might be moving to NYC in a few years, but not anytime soon. No Canada. Been there, though. Just ain't lived there.

Yeah... that ya do! #;-}>

But in this case, I can understand why. And if Crono had written "next level" or "next step" or "next one" instead of next rank, then it would be even more confusing, as he'd be REALLY deluding the poor level 10 guy into thinking level 11 was right around the corner.

When of course it isn't. #;-}>

But EG Private is another matter. :::salutes:::

Speaking of rankups, BTW, I'm motoring along, despite a weird lack of new entries to vote on this afternoon, and I should hit 14,000 (Elite Guard Major) sometime tonight. Trying to hit it before the GG day ends, but if I can't, ah well. I'll definitely get it by the exp and b/p rank updates a few hours later.

Cheer me on, guys! Well, 'cept for Recon. I know he won't be. #;-}>

Congrats to everybody who leveled up in one way or another. Not too happy about missing my deposit yesterday but life goes on. At least I didn't slip back to level 13.

Hey hey hey, what's wrong with 13? #;-}>

Anyway, your missed deposit now means you're 500 points exactly ahead of me (3000 and 3500). Seeing that in your profile also showed me that I have 1082 points (and that's just right now, it'll probably be 1300-1400 points by the time I get to it) until I get past the damned pipe and get to level 15.

(sob)

:::less than 20 points till rankup to EG Major, woot!:::

Oh believe me I won't.

Isn't it just so satisfying to vote 0 on a movie and then see the little BLAM animation of the film getting shot down:o)

That's one animation I don't see too often but yes, it's nice to get the 100th vote once and awhile.

Yup ... the animation's pretty cool ... but after seeing it a hundred time you get bored :P

It's weird but I like the save one (even if it isn't an animation) way more ... I prefer to save something than destroying another :\

'twould be nice if there WAS a save animation, that'd be even more cool. Anyway, I screenshot all my blam screens and save screens. Just another crazy thing I feel strangely compelled to do.

Anyway, I guess the board's gonna stay dead for awhile due to the BBS being dead for over 3 hours. Goddamnit unplanned outages. At least profiles and top 50 lists and flash pages were working, so I could keep racking up the points.

Yep, that's right, during the BBS outage I hit ELITE GUARD MAJOR. 14,000 points and climbing (more like 14,030 right now, in fact), with no one in my crosshairs at the moment but Recon himself! mwahhaahahhafihasdfoiwhgw.

In passing him, just a few weeks ago I would have been crowned the top blammer/savior in the Wi/Ht, but now there's Crono to have that honor, so bleh. #;-}>

Anywho. New sig and sigpic to match. I be going to bed, wake me up when the forum revives! 2468 (posts), who do we appreciate?

So THAT'S why I couldn't get onto the BBS for a while! Ah well I'm here now. Congrats gfox on your achievement, I'm sure there are many more to come ;)

HOLY SHIT ON A STICK! Our old friend Gozzy has become UOTD! Wow... pity he left...
