I saw Alice Cooper with Heaven and Hell (freaking awesome) a few years back and was amazed at how quick and graceful he still is for his age -he sure puts on a hell of a show.

I'm getting there, but look at it like this - I've passed 30,000 B/P and I'm still going.

This is true, but it's just so much easier to reach Supreme Commander. You might reach SC in a couple years (or less -though that's no longer possible these days) but leveling up in exp. is something that's ALWAYS there. I would imagine that it would be slightly sad to finally reach the final level and be done leveling on NG for good in both exp. and b/p. (Hell knows I wish there were a few more b/p ranks to strive for. Or at least VP increases, which is something I remember discussing with you a few years back.) :P

I'm expecting a double-congrats from you too, Coop. :P

I've got at least 3 years of inactivity under my belt now... :'( Back when I was a noob I was dead set on getting Supreme Commander and keeping a perfect deposit rating -at least I was able to achieve one of those things.

I guess I'm close to 4 years of inactivity, then. I'm just glad I already got to Supreme Commander while the portal was still more active than it is now.

Let's hope he keeps it that way. That's another thing Craig Ferguson talked about: He doesn't have a drinking problem, but a thinking problem. Sometimes he sees adverts for Guinness or other alcoholic stuff and he find himself thinking about how he should go out and have a drink... until he realizes: Wait now. I can NOT do that!

This level icon is a fistful of metal!

passed 24000 B/P!

A bit of a different milestone to report but there are now 50 artists that I have scouted.

33334 Experience points. For some reason I really like the number. It feels like I'm 1/3rd of the way towards a goal I really shouldn't pursue.

Fuck those guys, Guinness is an awesome drink. I'll bring Dean in here to back me up on that!

Kopparberg is cider only. It's not like Stella Artois who did lager all along but have recently been doing cider.

I'll have to search around for it. Stella Artois is some good shit. I remember getting an assorted 12 pack of Belgian beers for Christmas a few years back. Hoegaarden is outstanding, too.

Ah, I see. Back in 2003 I had an account before this one, though I scarecly remember using it. All I remember from that brief period is getting review banned for trying to advertise a website in my reviews. LOL
