I'm strictly referring to the "Total Stats" of each user, which is exp+blams+saves+posts+reviews+medals. (NGLog goes by the Hexalist, which largely determines what does and doesn't constitute a "stat" here in the NG community. :P

Also, NGLog does keep track of medal points, they just aren't part of your "total stat" tally.

I see,but the medal points aren't even displayed on the userpages,and personally I think that it would be interesting to see how many medal points I got since the last log (even if they are not a part of the grand total,like the voting power,flash movies etc.),thank you anyway :)

Sir-Nuts is a pretty unique username, you should keep it. :P

I'd take the "Sir-" away, but I don't want to give the staff trouble for an account I use every now and then. Just Nuts would sound a lot better.

Then everybody could clearly see your/you're Nuts.

Also, this got me thinking... am I the only one left who still has his original username? Coop83 is gone, Bahamut is gone... that leaves me, Odyssic and Auz. But both don't post too much in here anymore. And I'm not sure, if they changed their usernames at some point.

If you count NEVR, BlueHippo, gfox... though they no longer wander around these parts. And I'm not sure if they haven't changed either at some point.

gfox isn't here at all anymore (which is a shame), BlueHippo isn't really active... well, at least NEVR still lurks around, which is nice. ;)

And I could go back to Sir-Nuts, who knows.

Do it.

Ah well, that just makes me a lazy mod.

And now you're not even a dragon anymore.

Actually, I still am a dragon somewhere on the internet. Just not on Newgrounds anymore.

Now, who casts the Mega Flares around here?

Those thoughts are really eating at me right now. Here I am going to be 23 in a few months time and if my life can't progress soon, there won't be any care for me due to my age at a later stage.

Well, I was 22 (nearly 23) when everything changed for me... ;)

Eh, I'll be 23 in a few months. I'll admit that I MIGHT have my eye on someone but I really have to go slower on this.

You know, I too had to go through a tough time with a girl before I finally found a "significant other". :)
That tough time helped me to be more confident towards girls.

I really should read that book, even though I'm not much of a reader.

There's always the BBC series, which is pretty good.

Might give it a shot but I have other stuff to watch. If I were to put Doctor Who to one side, I would like to try out Game of Thrones and Sherlock. Oh, speaking of television, I did manage to finish off watching through all of Monty Python's Flying Circus after two years. It shouldn't take that long but season 3 had its slumps so it didn't motivate me for a while.

tbh, I really don't know what happens in Season 3. We watched everything without long breaks. So I wouldn't know which happens in what season. But I guess, Season 3 is the one where Mr. Cleese isn't present for half of the season.

Don't get me wrong. The name isn't bad. But Bahamut was pretty special.

At least with me it's been four weeks now so I've given myself a fair amount of time and by the time I do make an attempt to ask a girl out, that should be enough single time for me.

So what's your backing up for depositing? That's one thing we all just can't let go of anytime soon. I'm sure I can be in a time where I can easily give up on depositing. I know it sounds crazy of me to say that but this site isn't gonna stay with me forever and I think considering what I've done on here this year so far, that should be understandable. That said, I'd still like to try and get in the top 100 for EXP and at least try and reach level 60. That's only two years off so it can't be all that bad. Although, if life really did kick it up a bit by then and I just can't have the time for NG anymore then... yeah. :P

You'll have to get used to it after a while. Hopefully in months to come people will see the better side of the username.

Not necessarily Mega Flares but my new dragon persona can still breathe fire and fly around. He's kinda like the Bahamut you knew but new and better!

Eh, I'll be 23 in a few months. I'll admit that I MIGHT have my eye on someone but I really have to go slower on this.

You know, I too had to go through a tough time with a girl before I finally found a "significant other". :)
That tough time helped me to be more confident towards girls.

I'll agree with that for one thing. Now that I've split up with her, I am trying to make an effort to find someone else. I suppose beforehand I just didn't try and always waited it out to see if a girl would go ahead and express her interest in me. Probably not the best of ideas but I can't bring myself to walk up to a girl at a bar and try and pull on the spot. I just want to make sure that we do have something together before I make any daring moves.

With my last partner, I knew we had things in common and I did flirt around with her on Twitter so things did build up and on that faithful day, I did feel something good was going to happen. I was ready to go as far as asking her out but she beat me to it and asked me out instead. I'll admit that looking back at everything now I kinda want to see if we can be friends again but I need to fight against that. There have been times where I fell out with some friends but were able to get back together at a later point but when it comes to someone who really messed around with me a lot, I do need to hold my ground.

At least now I am trying to keep tabs on some girls that I might like. Of course, I hardly know any of them apart from stuff they like to reblog on Tumblr but they follow me and they see the stuff that I post on there and some of them do reblog what I post. However, there is this one that I am developing a crush on and that's mostly due to her interests. I didn't see a photo of her until the other day and to me she's a nice looking person. I want to fight these emotions to avoid disappointment but sometimes I can't help myself. Despite that little moment, I can say I am doing better with speaking to women than I did before. It's an improvement to say the least.

Might give it a shot but I have other stuff to watch. If I were to put Doctor Who to one side, I would like to try out Game of Thrones and Sherlock. Oh, speaking of television, I did manage to finish off watching through all of Monty Python's Flying Circus after two years.

tbh, I really don't know what happens in Season 3. We watched everything without long breaks. So I wouldn't know which happens in what season. But I guess, Season 3 is the one where Mr. Cleese isn't present for half of the season.

The fire brigade sketch was what really put me off. I don't like it when they pad out one joke to the extreme and you're left to twiddle your thumbs. Season 4 was the one where Cleese stepped down but it was still really good overall. The Michael Ellis episode as a whole is brilliant and the moments on Hamlet had me laughing a lot. I'm not dead certain yet but out of all the Pythons, I enjoy Cleese the most.

Many will but time will adapt.

Being back on my own is a feeling I'm not liking but it's motivating me to get out there again and see what happens. I've brought myself down a few times now but I know it won't get me anywhere. I should have a few things planned for next week and possibly for next month as well so that's at least me going out of the house again.

It's their problem now, not mine. Although, I remember a few girls from my youth who did say that they would only go out with me when Hell froze over. If she's shutting down furnaces, I might have a chance... Where is my little black book?!

I like the album as a whole. It's still 5-star material to me. I thought with development of my musical interests would put them behind but they're still good to go back to, unlike Korn...

I still need to get my hands on a little more System of a Down - I only have Toxicity and Steal This Album

Get self-titled! Mezmerize and Hypnotize are also good records despite what some SOAD fans may say.

Eventually - I do have an arrangement through McVities, where I get iTunes vouchers for eating biscuits.

And I still look back at it and think, "You know what, someone out there did have an enjoyable time with me, even if it was briefly."

There you go. That's positive and for me that would be impetus to share myself with someone else soon.

Even though at this point I can no longer understand what my ex is doing with herself. I swear, her personality changes every so often and it's hard to even keep up with what she wants to do in life. She could have had a better focus on her life and stuck to it with me. I would have accepted her vows but too late for that now. I tried helping her out whenever possible but it was all thrown back at me so I don't see why I should accept her help now when she couldn't listen to me back then. She's ruined me and I don't know if I even want to be friends with her anymore.

Step back and be there for her if she needs someone to talk to. You can't meddle with everything that they do. Like with me and the issues that Bex has had since we split. It hurts to see her do some stuff to herself, but I can no longer grab her by the lapels and tell her to sort her life out.

Yeah, I imagine that to be not so pleasant for you. 420 has bigger purposes than the birthday of some dick, though but after my events with 4/20, I can conclude that it's not my lucky number. I just spent most of the day fearing of going back home to face my parents. I knew from one little argument they would carry it over when they got to see me again. They did and it got uglier. I've been speaking to a local help centre about how I can move away from them.

So what's your backing up for depositing?

My wife's Smartphone and a great invention called "Tethering". ;)

Ah yes. I did use tethering when I was in London last week but didn't want to overuse it. I just kept to Twitter and Facebook.

Although, if life really did kick it up a bit by then and I just can't have the time for NG anymore then... yeah. :P

Maybe it's easy to do but if I just don't feel like doing it anymore so be it. That won't happen just yet, though but it's something I might kick out of my system somewhere down the road.

Eh, fair play to that. Will you agree to only do that once, though?

Since your posts now are made under the name of "FromADistance", no I won't change that. I might call you "Bahamut" while posting out of habit, though.

I can see that happening.

Not necessarily Mega Flares but my new dragon persona can still breathe fire and fly around. He's kinda like the Bahamut you knew but new and better!

With shin new scales?

Shiny new scales? Why yes. Still a blue dragon, though but again, he's different to Bahamut. It's what I should have been on here all along.

Probably not the best of ideas but I can't bring myself to walk up to a girl at a bar and try and pull on the spot.

I cannot do that as well. But I realized that I was more confident around girls than before. And that surely helped.

I suppose online communication doesn't mean all that much but I'm at least stepping it up a bit. I suppose all the time I spent on NG hasn't done any favours considering the amount of bullshitters you get on here. When I look at it now, 95% of my time is spent on social media and 5% is either Newgrounds or other sites.

I'll admit that looking back at everything now I kinda want to see if we can be friends again but I need to fight against that.

After all you told here, I advise you to not come in contact with her again any time soon.

Not a single person has told me I did wrong for taking her off my contacts everywhere. Many people on my Facebook felt that she wasn't the ideal one for me and a lot agreed that she has a lot of issues which is true. She ruins a lot of her own friendships because of her actions.

The fire brigade sketch was what really put me off.

Yeah, that wasn't funny.

I agree (lol us two agreeing with each other). It's one sketch I'll gladly skip over but the majority of everything else, I like. I think by season 1 alone I was all like "Man, if it's this awesome here, I wonder what the rest will be like." I suppose if I go through it all again, I can easily higher it up to my favourite shows of all time but I don't think anything will top Father Ted for me. Flawless from start to finish.

I'm not dead certain yet but out of all the Pythons, I enjoy Cleese the most.

He sure has a way of being funny and looking dead serious at the same time. Palin is great, too.

That's what I like about Cleese. I also like how he can adapt to the more evil characters in the sketches and do damn well with it. Yes, Palin is another great one but I think if I had a second favourite, it would be Chapman.

True, it does have some part on the site but I still have a right to change name if I so desire.

Hah, anyone who has ever said "When hell freezes over" now have to do those deals. Now THAT would be hilarious. Considering I never asked out girls I've not had to deal with that like you. However, lack of courage of doing that hasn't looked good on me. Well, there were times when I did have a girl in mind but it was already too late. I wanted to go slow on it but at the same time it allowed others to get in before me. In any case I'm still going to pace it out and if I find the one who I think is the one I'll see about taking the courage to ask her out. It's just not going to happen out of magic when one girl sees me and immediately falls for me.

There are plenty of reasons why I've had very little luck with girls but at least I'm at the more suitable age to be looking for a serious relationship. I feel around the age of 20 is the best time to start looking for such relationship but I won't argue that anyone who get together at a younger age than that can turn out for the better. Two of my best friends got together at the age of 14 and they've been married for 18 months, they both work and have their own house. Those two are definitely something special.

Even though at this point I can no longer understand what my ex is doing with herself. I swear, her personality changes every so often and it's hard to even keep up with what she wants to do in life. She could have had a better focus on her life and stuck to it with me. I would have accepted her vows but too late for that now. I tried helping her out whenever possible but it was all thrown back at me so I don't see why I should accept her help now when she couldn't listen to me back then. She's ruined me and I don't know if I even want to be friends with her anymore.

Step back and be there for her if she needs someone to talk to. You can't meddle with everything that they do. Like with me and the issues that Bex has had since we split. It hurts to see her do some stuff to herself, but I can no longer grab her by the lapels and tell her to sort her life out.

I don't think talking to her is something that will happen now. The last straw for her was when I read a post of hers that stated how she missed her previous boyfriend prior to me and has interest in a new guy. When she doesn't show any feelings for me, I've got no intentions to talk to her. Maybe she'll talk to me at a later point whether it be actually seeing her in person or she'll attempt to text me again. Either way, I'm gonna keep away from her for a good while.

I almost wish I was - I think I've walked about 20-25 miles in 3 days, chasing projects from one warehouse / workshop / open space to another. Decided not to go for a run on Monday and so far, that has been the single best decision of 2013!

I should really not bother to congratulate people who can't even be bothered to say their achievement in full. Seriously, a "k" in lieu of three zeroes isn't much, but they don't even say something about passing such a milestone. *sigh*

Sometimes it requires a leap of faith. I have taken that leap and have been both rewarded and rebuked for it. That's life.

I've never met anyone who got together that young. I know that my best friend and his wife got together when they were around 20 and have been together for 10 years now. Married for almost 4 years, too.

Yeah, I imagine that to be not so pleasant for you. 420 has bigger purposes than the birthday of some dick, though but after my events with 4/20, I can conclude that it's not my lucky number. I just spent most of the day fearing of going back home to face my parents. I knew from one little argument they would carry it over when they got to see me again. They did and it got uglier. I've been speaking to a local help centre about how I can move away from them.

That really doesn't sound too pleasant. I hope you can move out and live on your own soon. :/

So what's your backing up for depositing?

My wife's Smartphone and a great invention called "Tethering". ;)

Ah yes. I did use tethering when I was in London last week but didn't want to overuse it. I just kept to Twitter and Facebook.

Yesterday Internet was out again... *sigh*
So I just deposited while being at work. I'm still not too sure how they think about surfing privately, but since I work in the computing departement, internet isn't blocked for me, heh.

Although, if life really did kick it up a bit by then and I just can't have the time for NG anymore then... yeah. :P

I always have 5 minutes time to deposit. It's not that hard. :P

Maybe it's easy to do but if I just don't feel like doing it anymore so be it. That won't happen just yet, though but it's something I might kick out of my system somewhere down the road.

I THINK I might have missed another deposit earlier this week... but you are right, I don't care as much about depositing as I used to, so I won't even bother checking if I missed the deposit or not.

Not necessarily Mega Flares but my new dragon persona can still breathe fire and fly around. He's kinda like the Bahamut you knew but new and better!

With shin new scales?

Shiny new scales? Why yes. Still a blue dragon, though but again, he's different to Bahamut. It's what I should have been on here all along.

Nice.

I cannot do that as well. But I realized that I was more confident around girls than before. And that surely helped.

I suppose online communication doesn't mean all that much but I'm at least stepping it up a bit. I suppose all the time I spent on NG hasn't done any favours considering the amount of bullshitters you get on here. When I look at it now, 95% of my time is spent on social media and 5% is either Newgrounds or other sites.

I don't know how much time I spent here, but I can say for sure that 0% of my time is spent on social media. ^^

The fire brigade sketch was what really put me off.

Yeah, that wasn't funny.

I agree (lol us two agreeing with each other). It's one sketch I'll gladly skip over but the majority of everything else, I like. I think by season 1 alone I was all like "Man, if it's this awesome here, I wonder what the rest will be like." I suppose if I go through it all again, I can easily higher it up to my favourite shows of all time but I don't think anything will top Father Ted for me. Flawless from start to finish.

As for comedy, I think nothing can ever Top MASH. 11 seasons of pure awesomeness.
One of my favorite scenes from Flying Circus is that Bishop who repeats "Oh Mr Belpit. You legs are so swollen!" ^^

I'm not dead certain yet but out of all the Pythons, I enjoy Cleese the most.

He sure has a way of being funny and looking dead serious at the same time. Palin is great, too.

That's what I like about Cleese. I also like how he can adapt to the more evil characters in the sketches and do damn well with it. Yes, Palin is another great one but I think if I had a second favourite, it would be Chapman.

Yeah, he's great as well. Come to think of it, I cannot think of one Python who isn't great. ;)

True, it does have some part on the site but I still have a right to change name if I so desire.

If it were up to me, nobody could change their name. :P

That would suck. What if I was named Xxdarkmaster666xX?

Then you would have to stick with it for all eternity and suffer like you deserved it.

Had 20 copies of my CV for town yesterday. They all flew off within a day and I was only able to wander around half of the city centre of Liverpool because I didn't have enough CVs with me. Not only that, I've been called in for an interview on Monday which was a job I applied to online so thankfully some are giving me interviews now. It's been.... AGES since the last interview. Still, the last day or two I feel energetic. Still a lot more to do for job hunting but I'll make a stronger attempt now.

Indeed. It's a matter of playing a game of risk. You just gotta try it sometime and make some daring moves. I'll see how things go with this new girl that I have my eye on. Granted, it's only messaging each other on Tumblr but we follow each other on there and conversations have been ongoing for a few days. It's not like after the first reply I didn't hear back since, although I could do with spicing up the conversation a bit. I like how we're talking a lot about abroad trips but the original purpose of talking to her was for metal. ;D

There are plenty of reasons why I've had very little luck with girls but at least I'm at the more suitable age to be looking for a serious relationship. I feel around the age of 20 is the best time to start looking for such relationship but I won't argue that anyone who get together at a younger age than that can turn out for the better.

Like I said, there is something special between them two so it worked out great for them. I still think around the age of 20 is a good time, although the youngest I'll date anyone is 18 just to be on the safe side and I'll keep year difference within 5 years younger/older than me. Then again, I'll be 23 in July so 18 will be the youngest I'll consider either way.

Just let it go, then. Try not to think about it and get on with life.

It can be difficult to entirely forget about her. I think you can understand why it'll be a long time until there's a day when not once do I think of her. Hopefully life turns around soon enough and I'll have new things to keep me occupied. You know, like working full-time or finding a new partner. Not to worry, I can never rush into a new relationship considering what I've told you here. I'm really not the guy who could easily jump from one to another like she did. Again, I know so few girls who aren't taken. However, I am seeing about reaching out somewhere on the internet.

You can start it?

I could, but I won't.

Ah well, your loss.

Yeah, I really need to do something about it. It might have settled down now but the next time we get in an argument it could be uglier than what happened last weekend and a lot more went on than what I've said. I hope the council will be reasonable with me and accept my problems and what may happen if I am not able to move out at any time.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if I have missed a deposit somewhere. Hell, I didn't even ask anyone to cover my deposits when I went away in London and the flat was without internet! The phone did help me a lot for those few days. It'll be entirely different if I was away outside of the UK but if I happen to be with my love partner on our own break, I can easily miss some deposits then. That's still a bit of a way off but we'll see what new hopes will do for me.

Shiny new scales? Why yes. Still a blue dragon, though but again, he's different to Bahamut. It's what I should have been on here all along.

Nice.

Yep, I quite like the new character. Moving away from the Final Fantasy stigma is good. I just feel put off by the series considering their modern bullshit. I don't hate it by all means but I'm not as proud of the series as I once was.

No Twitter nor Facebook then. Fairplay.

You're right there. Cleese was the star on Fawlty Towers as well so I feel I see him a lot around.

That would suck. What if I was named Xxdarkmaster666xX?

Then you would have to stick with it for all eternity and suffer like you deserved it.

And all because I was too young at the time? No, that wasn't ever my name but it's an example of a horrendous name. I only wish Last.fm will eventually implement namechanging, even if they'll have a small fee to do that. Hey, that's one way for them to get money so they should go ahead and do it!
