Wales
Hey I dont care about UK so why would I bother to learn thier geogography? Xactly.......
... but... you're... FROM ENGLAND, right?
So... aside from just wanting to be educated, there's the issue of not ... yanno... GETTING LOST? #;-}>
I just can't imagine not knowing that if you drive west from where you are, you'll hit Wales before you hit the sea.
It'd be like me not knowing if you want to drive from Texas to Florida, you've got to drive through Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama first...

wow this is the most pointless thread in the world
If you based that on the first page of this thread, as so many noobs do, then you might have a point... except that all 200 pages of this topic are NOT like the first page.
Anyway, if you want to REALLY find out what's the pointless thread in the world (or at least on NG BBS), go check out several threads in the Clubs & Crews forum, including OCP, which is just like this thread, only their main focus is increasing their post counts, talking about posting, and constantly obsessing about the posts and pages in their thread (which we, admittedly, have been talking about lately, but we don't talk about it all the time, just at significant landmarks like 200 pages).
Main difference being, of course, that the OCP is like 3 times bigger than this thread.

A nice new shiny sig to celebrate another 100 reviews, 300 in total now. Curiously, my average mark only moved down 0.01, which is weird considering the amount of crap I've reviewed recently. In case you're wondering, each green pixel upwards represents one review. However, three more 5 rated reviews and I'm at the sig picture limit and I'll need to rethink. And at this rate, I'll need to redo it in a week anyway and get rid of the captain's badge. Although clock day did help a lot. And this topic finally reached 200 pages. Hooray to the topic.
Neato. Suggestions for your pixel dilemma:
1) don't rate things 5 for awhile, so you buy some time
2) change it to 1 pixel for every 2 reviews, round up when odd.
3) you could change the graph to vertical instead of horizontal. And yes, all the scores wouldn't fit front top to bottom in the sig pic, but you could split them up as such:
0 ......... 6
1 ......... 7
2 ......... 8
3 ......... 9
4 ......... 10
5 ......... total
or something. Then the 400 pixel width of sig pics would come in real handy.

He used to be that Spike J wolfwood guy, But i never heard of him....
Spike is still Spike, I've got him on my Lieutenants list and he hasn't been name changing that I've seen. Freezeman is another PID entirely.
There are, to my knowledge, 3 somewhat prominent Wolfwoods who post to the NG BBS. Spike, Freezeman, and a third I can't think of at the moment.
They're all based on a Trigun character. I'm surprised you guys (well, most of you) don't know at least one of them from general. Spike, for one, posts a lot, and has for a long time.
And thus concludes my 4-replies-in-1 multipost.
