Thats when my greens started to die, so don't use more then one green going up the wall.

Because I never had time to complete all of the facets of the post-spider queen Level, I never got up as far as the Auto-Save. Fortunately, when I did, I'd only lost about 6 greens >:(

I was quite frustrated, by the time I got to the top.

I'm tempted to save up enough cash for "The Exicutioner" now :)

I don't know. 9.00 Base Voting power should be within your grasp in about a year, shouldn't it? CaptainBob is less than 3,000 ahead of you, so that's your next VP goal, since he's got 9.01 base, so you'll be there in less than 300 days!

Well, we all know that 'Pulling a gfox' would be climbing to the very top for Blams, Saves and as a result B/P all at the same time.* Either that, or your name could sound quite rude when verbalised in this way :P

*I will need to check this out...

Damn inflation. :P I can't believe that it's been already two years. It doesn't seem that long ago but I guess when you add all the things that has happen since then (medals, art portal, etc); I guess it really has been a while.

With that vote, you now have 10,000 experience points. You need 670 more to get to Level 32. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 16 hours, 4 minutes, and 44 seconds.

24,000 saves! Hooray...

Level 40 wooo, couldn't have came sooner that level 39 chainsaw thing looked pretty homo.

Also, I just noticed that I broke the top 300:
Exp. Rank #: 295

Congrats to everyone on this page also, I'd do a more formal list if I wasn't so tired... maybe later.

Yeah. :( Was this eating thing really necessary? This is the kind of realism that video games should tend to avoid.

Well, if you need any help with Opera, let me know. :)

Sure thing.

Also, I like the filter.ini MUCH better than Firefoxes AdBlock.

OK, I need to know a bit more about this filter.ini, especially if it could help me with my ad blocking.

Also, right click -> block content isn't that difficult either if you don't want to mess around in the .ini file.

True, but I liked the convenience AdBlock had by right clicking on the image and adding the URL filter.

Nothing wrong with the chainsaw.

Level 47.

The golden gauntlet... what a kickass level, I've always orgasmed over this level since I joined up back in '02 (back then level 25)and now I finally have it harharhar!

Although I have to admit the old school version was way better than this one.

Also 14.00 VP!

Have a nice day, all.

This alt has finally reached the top 500 EXP.

Sure, if you add an URL to the exclusion list, Opera won't load it. You can also use asterisks, so if you add "*.ads.*" to the exclusion list Opera won't load ANY URL that contains ".ads." , so you have to be a bit careful what you add there. But it's also possible to add the URLs of stupid layer ads to the filter.ini, so they won't bother you anymore.

Also, right click -> block content isn't that difficult either if you don't want to mess around in the .ini file.

Then maybe the program I linked you to is the right thing for you?

Actually, it took you only 115 days to get there, so it's not noteworthy. There may be a million registered accounts here but that doesn't mean they are all active in depositing experience.

aww balls. I'm not freeman yet.

And lots of these people stop depositing before level 11, or create accounts and never use them.

Now, my achievement:
2,222 saves. A nice number.

SAVES? I mean BLAMS. Stupid me.

After playing Trick-or-Treat Adventure! for quite some time I finally have 10,000 Medal Points.

Staff Sergeant and 6,000 B/P. Rather late thanks to someone but great to finally be one nonetheless.

Just got 4000 medal points...getting a bit harder now!

Oh hello there beautiful. :3

20,000 Saves. This also marks my first 20K stat. :)

HAPPY NG REDESIGN ANNIVERSARY #2, FOLKS!

New yearly newsposts going up in all three of my accounts within the hour! Get 'em while they're hot and fresh!

I thought pulling a gfox meant posting 4 straight nearly 8k-long posts in a Wi/Ht? list topic or LUL after disappearing for 2-4 weeks? #;-}>

Indeed, happy 2nd redesign anniversary! Feels like it was years ago.

I went the full greens for some reason, so all of them pretty much died. Thats when I thought it would be a good idea to go just 1 green.

Yeah, a good tactic that one ;)

I didn't play Overlord 2 yesterday, because the Secret of Monkey Island remake came out so I was playing that.

I won't be playing it on Monday or Tuesday (perhaps even Wednesday as well), as the laptop is going in for some maintenance - the screen keeps cutting out the backlight on me, so it sounds like a loose connection. Fortunately, I'm still under warranty.

I wonder if I can still take out an option to extend it?

Yep, especially the game GRID which I decided to try before getting it. I couldn't enjoy the game at all due to the extreme level of realism. One hard hit on the sides and my car was completely wrecked. I'll go back to Gran Turismo on the PS1 where the level of realism is far more reasonable.

It's a pity when some games are more simulations than proper games; funny you mentioned Gran Turismo because I bought #4 on PS2 and didn't get very far, I know that the handling physics are realistic but having played the likes of the Burnout games it was impossible for me to adjust to the more realistic driving style, sans 150MPH powerslides :(

And as promised...
