It says in his profile. Same way it says in everyone's profile. Any more dumb questions you want to ask?

And, to reduce the flame percentage of this post, sometime late next month I'm planning on producing a longish post "jonthomson's picks of 2003", where I select what I think have been the best Portal entries of the last twelve months. Would anyone like to see that (or, for that matter, produce their own)?

What are you saying here? Do you want us to produce a top 10 list of our own for reference material?

He's asking whether anyone would be interested in seeing his list of top movies of 2003 and if anyone would like to make their own list.

i finally did it i got more b/p points then _altr_ so that makes me #33 of b/p. go me!

Not really, basically what I was saying is that I'll be posting what, in my opinion, has been the best flash of 2003, and anyone else is welcome to counter with their own suggestions if they wish.

Absorb your blams and protects into my total.

oh, okay. That's a different matter. You're just teh modest man. No probs there. Yep. Whew.

Wanna display yer clubs instead of yer b/p stats and exp stats? That be yer choice, sirrah.

o_O

Is that reverse psychology you're trying on me?

heh... not really, but apparently it worked anyway. I like your new sig better, personally. Plus, you're looking forward to hitting #100 in b/p rank, right? Well, when it happens you can just update it right there in your sig and show it off for all the BBS to see. Schweet! #;-}>

And assuming the exp system never changes, as well.

But even if it does, achieving the next level will always be possible.

probably.... but you never know. What if it's changed so that the levels scale evenly with the top exp person! (i.e. 10 exp points added to the requirement for EVERY level under 30)... (gasp)

Assuming the level system never changes...

heh.

Your ability to climb just shrinks and shrinks and shrinks.

But your level just increases! And so does your exp count and rank. So many things to improve!

true, true. Like I said, all those other things make up for HT and Pimp's insane exp climbing. #;-}>

It'd be quite depressing if there wasn't blams and saves to make up for it.

Only if you're into the whole VP improving thing...

I'm hooked on it!

You don't need to love VP to love b/p. But it does help.

And so I did. And so shall I have done in the past. And yes, so it is written, so let it be done.

So if I command you to do something in writing, so it shall be done? Mwaha, MWAha, MWAHAHAHAHA!

You don't hesitate to rub in my lower-than-yours stats, do you?

How is that rubbing it in? If you had 21,312 posts but 3,800 blams and saves and I had 21,312 blams and saves but 3,800 posts.... and I mentioned that my posts and your b/p were the same... and your posts and MY b/p were the same... that would just be pointing out a neat coincidence, not rubbing anything in...

No there's not! You've just got a lot of anticipation, something that could come in handy if you intend to get into the REAL big leagues.

Sure there is. It means he's already looking forward to the level 17 gauntlet when he's going to get to level 16 fairly soon.

Level 16 as in the freakin' NUNCHAKU!!!

As in the singlest greatest level, visually.

He shouldn't be looking forward to a so-so level icon when he's got the ultimate one coming up in January! It's just twisted! #;-}>

Damn Crono-, four general's stars and I'm still searching for my first. I'm less than 600 points away so not much longer.

Yay! 2000 blams! That's all I've got to say for the moment, apart from as previously mentioned I won't be here over the weekend (and perhaps until Tuesday night even) as I'm down in Coventry (or, as we like to call it, the killer streets of C-o-v), away from a computer in all likelihood. Should still be able to get deposits in but not much else.

What is even more optimistic is the level 30 thing. I even know I'LL never be level 30 unless they change the amount of levels to 50 or something. Starting off now... it'll take at least 3-4 years to get to level 20 (if even that soon.)

Yeh I know how to vote and get exp. points and stuff, but I have a 56k!. Which is most un-suitable for Newgrounds (so some people have said) and half of the under judgement movies are over 1MB.

I've used 56k on certain occasions and it is slow. If you have a bit of patience you can still vote on submissions up to 1,000 kb without fear of being too late with your vote. Especially since the max number of votes was increased.
