Yeah, let's see if I can help to keep things going.

I hope so!

That long? Cool, the tomatoes can start to rot!

Well, hopefully longer than that. ;) And could you throw cabbages or something? I always hated tomatoes.

Yeah, but working 50 hour weeks should not prevent me from spending 10 minutes catching up here every day or two.

Maybe not, but I wasn't even speaking of your work week when I said that.

I've just bought a 9 year old one, but it's worth it. Maybe a temporary one, if something better comes along. You never know.

So long as it takes you from point A to point B and it's got a CD player to crank 2112, am I right? ;)

I kinda regret not seeing them last year, but at least I had (what I considered to be) a good reason. Hopefully I'll get another chance, eventually.

I don't think they will stop touring anytime soon. But if they stop, than this year's show sure would a nice way to end this. They have giant flags/pictures of Eddie and his various reincarnations. It's a nice journey through Maiden's history.

You passed 70,000 Saves. Way to go!

Level 55. Groovy.

I wanted to say that before Coop had the chance this time.

level 39

Next milestone passed 23,000 EXP. Not really a big deal though >_<

You passed 87,000 B/P! Congrats!

Congrats on that. I am 50 days away from my next milestone. And that WILL be a big deal! ;)

Recently (upgraded?) from a shotgun to a rune like wooden/clay sword. Seriously what the hell is this thing and why is it a higher level than other icons? I won't claim to understand nor agree with the weapon tiers.

Level 50 and finally the gold levels. Finally!

So, is this topic dead? What a shame. But I guess ending this topic with a final congrats list is just fine.

I was going to make a similar post once the LUL fell off the first page. (Which is something that I've NEVER seen happen before and was getting dangerously close to, before you posted.)

I think some users will still come here to post their achievements to some extent, though periods of a day or two (or even three now) without a post is becoming more common. I'll continue making congrats lists, so long as I'm active on the BBS and there are still achievements to recognize.

It has already been done. A guy wrote a book about that. But I don't think it has been translated to english. What a shame!

It sounds like Jasper Carrot's insurance claim sketch, where he reads out Australian motor insurance claim forms:

"The accident occurred while I was waving at the man I ran into last week."

"I was driving in wiggly lines towards the tree, but I still couldn't avoid the head-on crash."

Yeah, something like that.

The manufacturers tend to be more conservative in their estimations. Parkers is independent and tests the vehicles for the most accurate reading possible. I've not managed to get 60 mpg out of the Focus, but they quoted 60. I'd be happy managing that, as it means less of a fuel bill.

Well, MY fuel bill amounts to just 0 anyway. :P Ah, the benefits of a good public transportation system.

Nah, you have to pay for tickets, which is basically paying for fuel for the transport.

Nope, my company pays for the ticket. :P
Also, it's just 60 Euros per month, so a lot cheaper than having to refill the car every two weeks.

Considerably cheaper. I like how that works and wish it did for me, but that means we need a good public transport system.

One of my colleagues went. Due to writing off the car, there was no way I'd have been able to afford a ticket.

I'd much rather not work in that shithole. Imagine all the abuse you get just because you work for the Job Centre. And besides, I'd try and be a good worker unlike them so clearly they won't take me on.

If you're working better than their current workforce, they start getting rid of the bad workers, not the good ones.

This show could have done with a longer notice but failing this for you there shall be the world tour for their upcoming album.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to that already.

I once heard it could be out in February but I'll take a more realistic prediction and say sometime in Summer.

More like it.

Cabbages don't fly as well - you can dodge them easier.

NEVER DIE!

Some few updates to try and build up some conversations here:

1. Username change AGAIN. Don't worry, I will be sticking to this one for real. The last one was only temporary due to some personal issues but that should be all cleared now.

2. Iron Maiden were fantastic last Saturday. The meet up with some new people also turned out well so hopefully I'll see them again in the near-future. As for the band, they played songs such as Phantom of the Opera, Aces High and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (well of course) so I was easily made up.

3. That feeling when you see your EXP rank at #101. Oh god yes, not much longer now!

Shame, you missed out on a great show. The support act was better than Airbourne but forgettable. I only wonder if you did go would you have tried to meet up with who I was with that day?

This is the Job Centre we're talking about here. Any other place, sure, but not Job Centre. Speaking of them, they still owe me two JSA payments. I'll be having a word with them next Wednesday if I'm still not paid for them by then.

Unless you are a better worker than your boss. Those kind of people seem to lose their job first.

I'm not sure if they played Phantom of the Opera in Hamburg, but they definitely played Aces High and Seventh Son.

The new car's in the shop already? Is there any kind of warranty on it?

Hold your fire -he's changed his name again. This saddens me greatly.

Does your car have USB port? Mine doesn't have one, but I've rented a car with one once. It's pretty cool having your whole iPod up on the touch screen that's built into the dash and all. That's probably the thing I'd be excited about the most if I got a new car. How sad. lol
