Eh... I saw Tanner, Shrapnel and DanMalo on earlier... haven't seen gfox.. and Newgrundling posts in one topic. (But maybe if everyone says his name we can lure him out, he's like some magical leprechaun, YAY!)

At least it's back for Christmas. The worst one was when I was in Leamington and our NTL telly was fucked, and the repair guy originally went to Rugby, about 20 miles away :-(

I haven't been keeping track of spancker's experience total since he changed his password on me. Is he still depositing? It would be a shame to see him start backsliding from level 15.

Well when I calculated how long it would take him to level down on the 15th, he was on 4570, so that was the first deposit since then. So I don't know if that's a one-off or whether it's just sporadically every few days.

Holy crap! I passed spancker in experience! He's still way ahead of me in blam/protection points.

Um congrats! I think...
Well, I wont be blamming, saving, or posting much anymore, I got a bird for an early christmas present! A parakeet to be more precise. He takes up most of my time now, I gotta hand train it, make sure he eats, the works. Hes only a few weeks old too.

But enough about me, whats goin on with you guys? And is this name change thing gonna happen?

Your guess is as good as mine Demon0. gfoxcook mentioned something about e-mailing liljim on the subject.

W00t! Level up. I am now an Elite Guard Captain.

Congrats leeboy105! How far in the blam/protect ranks are you going? Are you trying to make Elite Guard Supreme Commander?

Obviously i'd like to go all the way, but it'd take a long time. Really, it all depends on whether or not i lose interest in NG in the future and if i actually have time to vote.

Congrats on that, Captain just sounds cool. I'm close to a few minor b/p milestones myself (not implying yours was minor) - 2500 blams, 1000 saves and hence halfway through the first 1000 rank up jump. I think I might make myself light for a day just to celebrate getting the saves into four figures. Yeah, I think I will. Only 7 to go, and at the last check I had 28 UJ submissions voted on...

Congratulations, dude. I just ranked up myself. I am now an Elite Guard First Lieutenant. It's working out nicely too. Thanks to that rank up, I am now that much closer to having a Voting Power of over 8.00 votes. I'm trying to race with _altr_ for the #25 spot as well, but lately, that guy's been kicking my ass. If _altr_ keeps moving like this, I won't be #25 until I can pass Newgrundling. Oh well, only 1000 more blam/protect points to do that...

Nice work leeboy105. Congratulations.

alexsmolik that is a cool looking sig though...

Wow, a lot of level/rank-ups today/yesterday, congratulations to everyone.

I'd be level 14 now if me Internet wasn't down all last week. It really fustrated me, gotta wait another 6 days now.

I'll be level 18 in about 6-8 days as well, w00t. Hasn't felt like I've been 17 for that long, but it really has been a while.

Yep, those UJ submissions from last night pushed me comfortably over the precipice... four digits in saves, never thought it would happen.

i hate it when every one levels or ranks up but i don't. i'm not even close to level 17 and i think i'll only get too the next rank in 2 or 3 weeks.

You forgot XkwiziTOnE and Sturmpanzerwagen.

in favor of no name change (1)
lightning

You forgot Impetus

whoops. I was only scanning a certain range of level up!, so I must have missed them by just a bit.

The reason the final vote should stand 8 to 2 in favor of the name change is because some of these non-members come here a lot more than most official members. Someone in this forum once mentioned that we had a lot more than 16 members. I see what they meant. Checking back posts I count at least 6 WiHt? members virtually non-active at this point in time (again, if you want names start searching). Frankly gfox I think we should add another member to start off the new year.

Not too hard to think of who you mean. spancker and Drimarki and redrum and jessica for starters... and then in our most recent membership, Mystboy and Dobio don't come around too often. I'm guessing that's who you mean.

Anyway, I wouldn't be opposed to a new member. Or members, for that matter.

jonthomson, -PZY-, XwaynecoltX, KornFreaker, Impetus, LockClock, etc. etc. tons of possibilities. Any of you guys (or others) likes the idea of joining our little group officially here (not that you need to), please say so over in the memberlist thread so we don't clutter up level up! too much, please:

http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic.php?id=64127

Anyway, it sounds like perhaps it's time to ask liljim if the namechange can be done. That's not a sure thing, after all, there's not much of a precedent for this. Anywho, shall I ask him?

Couldn't hurt to try gfox. That was what we voted on wasn't it?

I just e-mailed him. I guess we'll find out soon enough whether it can be done/will be done.

it's winning becouse we have a lot of inactive members?

I wouldn't go that far. If 10 regular posters in this thread are 80% in favor of changing the name a bit to make it more informative/accurate/less spammed by noobs... then I doubt that if 10 more people were to vote, it would suddenly become 20% in favor. Might lower it a bit if some oldies who haven't been around for awhile came back and said "no, leave it!"

but consider this:

spancker, Recon, and leeboy are 3 of the 4 oldest members of this group (we weren't able to get Drimarki's opinion, unfortunately), and all three of them are cool with the namechange.

So if the very core of the group votes yes... I don't think you can assume other inactive members would vote no. Lightning is the only single digit member who'd rather the name didn't change, for example.

Anyyywho, it's all rather a moot point. Just see how you feel about it if liljim can change it, does change it, and then we can try it out. And if liljim can't or won't change it, then it's even MORE a moot point. #;-}>

I've been in the portal but just the portal for the past few days. Been a bit busy, and got into a large book, so my girlfriend was monopolozing the computer for the past couple of days as well. #;-}>

Anywho.... gotta agree with the others, Joe: Nice sig!

Congrats on the 1k save-age. I'm betting it had something to do with all those Foamy Day flashes? What was up with that anyway, I suspect I missed something big on General. O_o

Yeah, no kidding. As I mentioned in the notes of the top 50 blam update, _altr_ had an amazing past month.

lol yeah.
I'm kind of sad of changing my old one... I have been using it for so long, I don't change sigs often. But I thought I'd keep that one for a short time notice, just in order for people to click on it lol or something like that you know, just so they are aware of www.retrogade.com and visit the website, and get an account or what not ?!
Hehe.
But I will shortly be putting back my old sig ! :-)

It's pretty cool actually having a new name. It gives our club a sort of individuality.
