Not a fan of kids myself. I'm a bit of a grumpy old man before my time so I find almost everything kids do to be incredibly annoying. (Unless they're being quiet and well-behaved.) :D

Sure, why not. I'm mad I tell you. Mad! Just kidding, thanking myself would be pretty redundant, don't you think?

Yes, I think congratulating and thanking yourself is redundant. :P

Nice! I never even thought of trying that. :(

Happy 2014 to everyone! I had a much better new year celebration than the last few. Was just at the local rock bar and they were open until 6 in the morning. No problems occurred and it was an enjoyable night throughout. Hopefully starting the new year with a great celebration will mean a much better year for me.

2013 certainly had its ups and downs for me. It looked promising at first but it wasn't long until it gave me a huge slap on the face. I lost some acquaintances that I wish I didn't lose but on the other hand I have met a lot of fantastic people this year so they more than make up for the losses that I had. I'd like to see that the better part of 2013 will guide me through 2014.

Now that the Christmas and new year holidays are pretty much over, I can soon resume exercising which I have missed doing for the last few weeks. I got the appropriate gymwear now so I'm all good with going to the gym or having a walk around somewhere. No more long walks with my boots which is a relief. For the whole of this year I'd like to see that I can lose a lot of weight to get me down to a reasonable size. There was some progress with weight loss last year due to myself walking into town more often but this is the year where I need to step it up a bit.

Anything else to think of for 2014? I'm not going to build my hopes up just yet but I did have one girl last night who enjoyed my company quite a bit and did ask if I was going to be at the same place on Friday so I have a reason to go there then even if the night will be dead.

I generally just use my real name for internet usernames nowadays or at least have some variant with the name Murray. I've grown out of using the name Bahamut but for historical reasons on the site that name is still connected to my account. I only go by two names now and they are either Andy or Murray and either is good for me.

Don't worry, I do have a few big milestones to get this year, although it probably won't be as special as what 2013 offered for me. Getting to the top 100 was one of my biggest goals and now that I've reached it, my next focus is the top 50 but that's a long way off so the next major milestone for me is level 60.

What I can expect to do for stats milestones in 2014 is getting all the way to level 59 and I'll have over 37,000 EXP so there's some nice stuff to look forward to for level and EXP milestones. As for ranks, I'm hoping I can reach as far as the top 80 but everything is dependable. Top 90 should be a safe bet for somewhere around Easter. Anything else, the most that I might be doing is getting some medals. I would like to get over 10,000 medals someday but I'm a long way off to that and earning them isn't high on my hobby list.

Heh, I lost about 2kg since I started working at a new place (I was over 90kg for a long time, now I'm at <89kg). I guess the main reason for that weight loss is that there aren't that many places to have something to eat during your lunch break. At the old place the area was full of restaurants/snack bars and my co-workers and I would have lunch together. And in the evening I also would have lunch together with my wife.

Now I just bring my own food (mostly just a sandwich), so I eat a lot less calories and a lot less carbs.

Also, I cycle to the nearest train station every morning (at least when it's warm enough to cycle...). It's not much but that way I do cycle about 6km each day.

I only go by two names now and they are either Andy or Murray and either is good for me.

Also, you can always say that you are just so much into tennis that you named your account after that scotsman. ;)

Experience Rank #42.

With that vote, you now have 20,530 experience points.You need 0 more to get to Level 44.

Is it really going to take you more than a year to get those last 4 levels? Wow. I'd say reaching the top 100 for BP has been my biggest milestone to date. ...Actually, no, Supreme Commander was still more awesome -there was a better atmosphere back in those days, too.

I'll finally be breaking the top 1,000 soon, which is a huge deal for me as I've never been in the top 1k EXP ever in my 9+ years on this site. (And I call myself a statwhore...) :(

Sounds like a good idea, especially since the stats your still gunning for has been reduced basically to EXP at this point. I wanted to reach 10k myself, but I'm not so sure that'll ever happen. :\

Or copy and paste their stat accomplishments from NG Logs. Speaking of which...

You passed 20,000 Experience Points. Good job!
This is means, at least on NG Log, 2,000 Days Spent on Newgrounds.

Guys, guys, come on, ALL these level icons suck! :D

So I reached 34k EXP yesterday... I almost let that one slip and not mention it at all. Must be a first for me to do that.

It's always good to be able to eat less. What I need to stop doing is going to McDonald's after going out drinking. If I were to avoid that more often then not only would I be eating less calories, I'll also be saving money.

Also, you can always say that you are just so much into tennis that you named your account after that scotsman. ;)

Or maybe I'm naming myself after the actor. :P

Yep, I reach level 60 on 4/20/15. No matter how little interest I may have in this site nowadays, I should at least be able to make it there before I even consider retiring at all. Not saying I would but if anything, my interests have slightly bounced back.

And this is where I make you feel like shit. It took me 18/19 months after registration to get there so as you can imagine, I only needed 6-7k EXP just to get there. In order for myself to reach the top 500 I needed to have a little over 10k EXP. I wish I could have been one of the first 500 to get 10k EXP but sadly that was not the case. On the other hand, I have done very well since.

Anything else, the most that I might be doing is getting some medals. I would like to get over 10,000 medals someday but I'm a long way off to that and earning them isn't high on my hobby list.

Sounds like a good idea, especially since the stats your still gunning for has been reduced basically to EXP at this point. I wanted to reach 10k myself, but I'm not so sure that'll ever happen. :\

I feel bad to having to rely on easy/spammy medals in order to give myself a bit of progress. However, there's now a countless amount of games (and some movies such as mine, lol) with medals so going through all of them is endless.

I remember getting the first deposit for 2010, thus making the very first deposit of this decade. :P

Wonder who got the first deposit of the millennium? :P

That's something I doubt we'll ever find out.
