Testing now.

And I still got the same issue, even when using IE, so it's nothing to do with the add-ons on Firefox. Either it's my ISP fucking me up or the NG servers have some issues. This problem even occurred when I was still using my old computer.

It used to work like that people shared achievements they were happy about, and discussions about those were often integrated in a constantly ongoing bigger discussion. Now it's almost as if they've been split, like the lists are irrelevant to the discussions and they have little to do with eachother.

Although I do not really like the idea of the made-up guidelines either, I do think we should keep the congrats lists or something similar in this topic.

Sure, lists are fine, but not how they work now. Now, to most, they simply work as lists summing up 'accepted achievements' people have shared. I don't see my username mentioned in a list I knew from before I was going to be mentioned in as a 'congratulation'. You could make a bot to do that automatically for you, sum up every achievement and add them to a list.

It's just mindless listing, without care or thought, that's what I'm saying. Sometimes someone adds a comment or two next to the achievment, it's a little better but it's still far too bad. It should be more about the fun with leveling up, achieving different Newgrounds stats and discussing them with fellow Newgrounds and less about just acknowledging achievements in mindlessly compiled lists.

Like gfoxcook already said, there are seperate topics for every stat already. So if you really wanna talk about your achievements you can always go to those topics. Personally I see this place more like a regulars lounge, just like all the other forums on NG have theirs.

And I stay with my opinion that this place would actually become more mindless without the list making. Of course we could stop the list making and could keep on discussing about "off-topic"-subjects, but there are probably gonna be thousands of posts in between with people who mention about every 100th post they get and other lame stuff that everyone achieves daily.

In that case I think this topic would kinda split up, so we might as well create a real regulars lounge and leave this topic for the "I just reached level 3!"-stuff (which would probably get locked for excessive spamming after a few weeks). I think the lists kinda connects both these things, making it sort of a regulars lounge and a place to celebrate your achievements.

True, it may all seem a bit robotic on the outside, but at least people read achievements which is better than endless strings of "Top 100,000 Experience" and such.

Damn straight. I just listened to all 12 tracks from Achtung Baby an hour ago.... Ultraviolet is so underrated.

I think Achtung Baby my favourite U2 album actually. And indeed, Ultraviolet is an awesome song, and I doubt many non-U2 fans know it which is too bad. Most U2 fans I know do love it, but I agree that it is kinda underrated for such a great song.

And so is Dirty Day from Zooropa. One of my faves

Dirty Day is another great song indeed, but the Zooropa song is my personal favourite from the Zooropa album. A song that I personally find very underrated.

It's a nice change and interesting but there needs to be a way to remove it for those who don't want it on the front page of their profile. I'm sure they are working on it.

Well, you can always move it all the way to the bottom of your profile page, thanks to that handy lay-out button Tom gave us.

It's going to be a while before I get my next B/P milestone :P

Woe to You Oh Earth and Sea
for the Devil sends the portal with wrath
because he knows the time is short
Let him who hath understanding
reckon the blam-count of the beast
for it is a human number
its number is six hundred and sixty six.

I lived alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see? Could I believe? That what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped SWF files staring back at me?

'Cause in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind
and brings my UJ Flash to despair

Night was black was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
was all this for real or just some kind of hell
6-6-6 the blam-count of the Beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Spam animations blazed and sacred chants were phrased
as they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires are burning bright
the ritual has begun, the Blammer's work is done
6-6-6 the blam-count of the Beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on I must inform the Lord
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream?
but I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes
seem to mesmerise...can't avoid their eyes
6-6-6 the Blam-count of the beast
6-6-6 the one for you and me

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll possess your Flash and I'll make it burn
I'll have the fire I'll have the force
I'll have the power to make my zero take its course

In case you didn't catch on, I have 666 Blams.

I really suck at modifying lyrics.

Private now.

Didn't realize how close I was until now.

I cracked the top 1000 in experience points. As I write this, I rank exactly 1000th. Since I already deposited, by tomorrow I should be in the 900s.

I will be somewhat inactive for a few days because I'm in exams. However I will come here to only deposit my exp and, possibly, make another LUL list.

1000 exp.

Good to see another digit.

Flu-Watch, Da-ah fuck it, I'm getting tired of doing this (and I'm sure you're all tired of listening to me bitch about it ;P). Basically I still have a bit of a cough.

Also, the Watchmen flash that won Daily Feature yesterday was awesome. Now I gotta find time to read the last 4 chapters of it before I go see the movie.

You might be, but equally you may very well not be.

When I cracked the top 1,000 recently, I was sat at rank #999 for about 3-4 days without moving up or down... so you might have a similar story for rank #1,000.

Congrats nevertheless.

Yeah, that and the anthology of Scary Door - I love those episodes :)

I don't have much poetic licence when we're talking about the symbiolism of some of the shitty copycat jokes that come along with these spam flash, you know :P

I think we all klnow that I could write better jokes than that myself, with a broader design brief.

Yeah, I would guess it's your ISP unless you have some exotic connection going on. I assume that you let Windows automatically chose your IP, etc, etc. Does the errors occur during peak hours, would you say?

On another note, this is the first alt that I seen that has less Exp than me. lol

The error occurs when I haven't posted in a while, like half an hour or so. However, if I make a few posts in a short amount of time, I only get the issue for the first post. It seems I'm the only one here with this issue.

Like this:
4th of March:
-You deposit (you´re now at 1,000 exp for example)
-System update, puts you in front of below mentioned guy for some reason
-Guy previously in front of you deposits (now has 1,010 exp)

5th of March:
-Guy previously in front of you deposits (now has 1,020 exp)
-System update
-You deposit (1,010 exp)

Just one of the many scenario´s that could have happened. Happens to me all the time.

NGLog usually displays that when you've logged your stats before depositing. Despite the fact that you have deposited, the system doesn't catch up until the day after.

Level 20 bitches.
