Well, I've now passed BonusStage. 2 rank ups in 2 days. I'm now the 23rd highest B/Per of all time.

It's going to be a while now before I pass gfoxcook, so we've got to make some strides towards that milestone. I'm somewhat peeved by the lack of Blams out there at the moment. 4 Blams in 2 days >:(

Coop tries to defrost the ice by *shitting himself, while congratulating:

* On the entrance to the main car park where I work, there is a slight hill that you have to go down, which leads to a sharp left hand turn and is flanked by a retaining wall. As I started the descent this morning, I noticed a tell tale sheen of ice. Instinctively, I pressed the brake and started to skid, straight toward the wall. After furiously pumping the brake pedal, I came to a stop and was able to rescue myself with no harm donw, save for a little damage to my pride and possibly a change of underwear.

Does that count?

Logged my stats for the first time in months using NGLog, and since the last time I've reached level 18, although I think that one could have been half-way through 2009, I'm not sure.

Anyways, I did reach 20K total stats yesterday. That was my goal for the end of 2008, but the start of 2010 works too.

I might restart on my listmaking soon. I quite enjoyed it back when I did it all that time back ago.

Exp. Rank: #699 (+2 move since last log)

So top 700 for exp.

I suppose so.

So it isn't dragon porn. . .

Though, if you have automatic brakes you shouldn't pump your breaks. Just hold it down since they will automatically release in intervals to help stop skidding.

Hey, Ice Ice Baby is a great song!

I didn't say it wasn't - the riff used from Under Pressure by Queen was brilliant. It could have been a lot worse than that, but personally it's not my thing.

And that's how to crash.

"The primary benefit of ABS on such surfaces is to increase the ability of the driver to maintain control of the car rather than go into a skid - though loss of control remains more likely on soft surfaces like gravel or slippery surfaces like snow or ice. On a very slippery surface such as sheet ice or gravel, it is possible to lock multiple wheels at once, and this can defeat ABS (which relies on comparing all four wheels, and detecting individual wheels skidding). Availability of ABS relieves most drivers from learning threshold braking."

I'm sorry, but I just don't trust machines to behave properly in situations outside of the normal.

And I get the feeling were just two of a couple of handfuls or so of honest voting guys that suffer in relative silence, thanks to the stupidity of other moronic voters. I guess most of the reg's here in the LUL are honest voters too. I kind of get that feeling. Oh well, what do can you do. You have probably seen my userpage, I am trying to educate people, even if just a little.

OMG! I could not believe that passed judgement, but in retrospect, I am sure Wade will remove it soon enough. Since I'm sure they will want to continue the series and not have that submission name used on that utter fucking garbage. And yes I voted 0 on that and missed my blam point, for now anyway. I think it has a lot to do with this Flash Flood crap thats going on in the Portal at the moment. And ASHAMED is an understatement, they should be shot.

Thanks for voting, Hacsev! Your experience has been automatically deposited!

With that vote, you now have 6,400 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 25. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 15 hours, 9 minutes, and 8 seconds.

It's been a very slow climb for me towards 19,000 ever since I hit 18,970 or so. Seems like there are more blams in the portal now though, I might get there tomorrow.

I don't know about you but if I'm skidding my foot isn't coming off the pedal. I remember one time I had to stop quickly and I was totally standing on my brake pedal. I think you should test it out; which way is more effective. :)

Total stats: 45678. Totally swish.
