Damn straight! You gotta keep it suspenseful. Creep up right behind the guy you wanna pass, let him see you standing there... let him feel the fear... then slam him down and jump past him!

Like I'm doing with Nemesis right now, you see. I'm around 20 points behind him, maybe less... he knows I'm coming. Oh yeah, he knows it. No need for stealth here. #;-}>

Anyway, you, Dogma, and alex... could really shape up to be somethin' if Dogma woke up.

Like the olden days of Recon, Drimarki, and spancker competin'... only Recon's still goin' of those three. (sniff)

But back in the day... leaping over two people at once... yeah, that was fun. Or even getting passed by chaotic and alex, waking up and finding out it had happened, thinking "grrrrr... damnit!" and passing them right back. Thems were the times. Enjoy it while it lasts, man! Once you get to the top 10, the air up here is so thin, it's weeks and weeks and weeks before you're even NEAR another molecule. #;-}>

Wow is it serious like that up there - i be seein the numbers and i be like ok whats good and all that but i had no idea it stale and quiet like a hyberbolic time chamber or something........

Well, I dunno if I think of it as serious, but... well, here, let me put it into perspective for you.

How many days I was at each b/p rank (that is, had the number as my b/p rank IN MY PROFILE, not on the top 50 list), from #50:

#50 - 1 day
#49 - N/A
#48 - N/A
#47 - 2 days
#46 - 1 day
#45 - 4 days
#44 - 1 day
#43 - N/A
#42 - 4 days (hit EG Sergeant First Class here)
#41 - 1 day
#40 - 1 day
#39 - 1 day
#38 - 4 days
#37 - 4 days (hit EG Master Sergeant here)
#36 - 1 day
#35 - N/A
#34 - 1 day
#33 - 1 day
#32 - 2 days
#31 - N/A
#30 - N/A
#29 - 5 days
#28 - N/A
#27 - 8 days (hit EG Sergeant Major here)
#26 - 1 day
#25 - N/A
#24 - 2 days
#23 - 4 days
#22 - 1 day
#21 - 3 days
#20 - 6 days (hit EG Praporshchik here)
#19 - 2 days
#18 - N/A
#17 - 14 days
#16 - 3 days (hit EG Second Lieutenant here)
#15 - 10 days
#14 - 17 days (hit EG First Lieutenant here)
#13 - 20 days (hit EG Captain here)
#12 - 5 days
#11 - 9 days
#10 - 6 days (hit EG Major here)
#09 - 29 days (hit EG Lieutenant Colonel here)
#08 - 26 days (hit EG Colonel here)

and that number for rank #8 is accurate, as I'll definitely pass Nemesis today, barring him turning into fixit. If I had to guess, I'm going to be at #7 for at least 90-100 days.

i.e. over 3 times as long as I've been at ANY OTHER RANK. And that's kinda insane, yes. As you'll notice from up there, the last time I had a "N/A" (not applicable = didn't have that rank in my profile ever... may have had it on the top 50 list, but that doesn't count for this list) was when I skipped #18 by flying straight from 19 to 17.

Since then, it's been slow going aside from a few places where people were clustered, as you can see by any of the numbers after #18, where the amount of days is less than 10.

Also, note how I rank up at every single rank now. Hit a rank while I was #10, hit a rank while I was #9, hit a rank while I was #8. Probably gonna hit 2 or 3 ranks while I'm #7, we'll see....

when ranking up becomes more common than passing someone on the list, yes... you know you're in the upper reaches of the atmosphere at that point. #;-}>

but it's not all bad. As you pointed out, you do have the super nifty high blams and saves and overall counts. It's just that it's a major marathon up here, instead of little sprints like it is further down, that's all. And yeah, it's kinda like being on a starship voyage to some distant star at a fairly slow speed, and being in the deep freeze till you get to your destination. You only get woken up by the ship's computers when you get within 100 blams/saves of another object, and that happens... fairly rarely. #;-}>

Haha.
I feel so ... loved ! I don't know lol. The way you talk about meh it's like I'm so luuuuved and I'm happy of being loved.
Dude, if I wouldn't have gone to my holidays, I would have blasted the top 10 of those rankings ... :)

But it's not sneaky! That's my point. I'm walking towards him in full view, daylight, not hiding behind anything, crouching or lying down... got my weapon out... he knows what's going on.

They gotta invite themselves. Dogma needs to wake up! Anyway, Dogma IS getting some points, just not posting AT ALL. I'd rather Dogma post than rack up serious blams and protects, but whatever.

I don't really keep track of it exactly. I made that list just for the reply to you based on information I keep in a big text file with all my blam/save counts every day and my ranks and exp amount and so forth. Handy for making new lists from, that's for sure. #;-}>

anywho, I don't know how much it will affect my blamming and saving, but having been named the newest mod might cut into my blamming and saving time a bit. Well, more likely than not I'll just go and search for bad posters and topics while waiting for new movies to pop up on the portal. Might miss a few blams that pass quickly, but I probably won't miss any protects. So actually, it should help keep me neutral and increase my saves more. Nifty. #;-}>

Nice to see they made you a mod. Don't go power crazy or anything!

Yeah, I like level 18 more than 17, and it looks better against a dark aura than 17 does. I'll probably move up a few places from #131 in experience, because theres only about 120 exp difference between me and #123 and at least ONE of the 7 people between us probably isn't depositing or not depositing daily. I've been at 131 for about 1-2 weeks now.

I was just wondering....Did you (Brian Griffin) Have any other usernames before TheJoe? Thats what I knew you by for a while (since I posted in level up! for the first time), and you keep on changing it.

Anywho, I don't find it THAT surprising. I mean, olskoo's not around... some of the other mods don't tend to be here much. Shrapnel for one, and I believe I've read Ted_Easton saying he's busy IRL for awhile and won't really be modding, so...

I think I'm #11 if you don't count admins. An even dozen wouldn't be a bad number to stop at. But speculation is futile and unnecessary, I suppose.

No names before TheJoe324, only time I've been anything different was when I made my name "TJ32" for about a week in december/january. Then went back to TheJoe324 until August (September?) When I changed to MagicalMusicalJoe, then to PimpMasterJDOG, then Conan_Obrien, then Brian_Griffin.

I've been wondering that too, I mean, olskoo is a great guy and all.. but he's pretty much never on, and hasn't been for months. Then there are mods like Freakapotimus and Ted_Easton that I hardly see on (And HAQ isn't on that much either.)

I'm just wondering if it was recomendations that gained you the upgrade, or just an admin noticing you. Or maybe something else completely unrelated...
