Congrats, not very long to lieutenant, then the semi-proper jumps start.

I was in the Midlands, doing exactly what I said in my post on the 8th.

Base vote power hit six today, minor stuff but it looks cool when I vote :-)

Congratulations to...

Crono- for breaking 20,000 blam points. I bet that number looks sweet on your profile.

gfoxcook for reaching the 15th level of experience. Nice to finally lose that ugly pipe 'eh?

daredevilguy for his new rank of Police Sergeant. Another 100 points to Police Lieutenant then the increment goes up to 500!

I wonder when am I going to hit the next B/P level ... I always forget when is the next level !
One thing is sure, is that I STILL need like 211 points away from level 19, my almighty favorite level.
WAY TO GO !
I also do wonder one thing ...
When the HELL am I going to lose this Silver whistle ? I didn't do anything that makes it improve level for like MONTHS (more than 3)... Am I going to stay Silver for ever ? ( I don't have nothing against it though ! ) :-P

Same situation as me. I've had a silver whistle since the system was implemented and i vote on 2 or 3 times every once in a while, but i still retian my whistle. I think silver is so easy and needs so little work to attain that you'll keep it for a LONG, LONG TIME.

W00T! Finally :)

I just became a Elite Guard Master Sergeant

It's looking fine in my profile

Congrats KoRnFreakeR, and nice batting average. Alien Lander is a cool game, but the ship's fuel consumption is pretty harsh. Can't that sucker carry spare fuel tanks?

Hehe, that's on purpose :)

I'd recommend you the add-on version, it's more fun, but the same fuel amount ;)

Come on, it's not that hard ;)

ranked up. A thousand until I "go gold."

I thought the only way to lose it was to vote incorrectly? Only the Gold and Diety levels were on the sloping scales...

And on that subject, I am SO glad to no longer be associated in people's minds with that damned pipe. #;-}>

now now, all you have to do to make sure we don't catch you is keep depositing, right? You can always ask me if you need a deposit or two or three or however many, man, you've helped me out before.

With your help that one time, I have now deposited exp on this account every FREAKING day of the past year. From January 11th 2003 to January 11th 2004 I got my exp every day.

That doesn't make up for all the missed days between 2000 and 2003 that I didn't deposit, but it certainly helps ease the sting a bit.

Now, I'm certainly not going to stop depositing altogether anytime soon, but if I accidentally miss a deposit here and there, I won't mind (especially since I'm into the 15/16 awesome level icon area, and thus a missed deposit now only means I'll spend more time with these lovely icons #;-}>).

From here on out, there is no icon I hate as much as that damned level 14 one, so I consider myself newly blessed here on NG. Okay, okay, getting to level 15 in exp isn't QUITE as cool as getting to EGSC in b/p, but hell, it's close... after the hell of level 14 for 3 months. Brrrrr... makes me shiver just thinking of that ordeal.

i hope you dont sustain any long term wounds from that ordeal gfox, i bet it was very harsh. only a handful of men could go through such torment and punishment with that level 14 icon like you did. but you showed great charisma and endurance, and showed that a person can do anything. now its time that you recouperate and relax, no more harm can come to you now that you have your level 15 icon, no more mental punishment for you! congrats .. lol

Well, I'm sure they'll heal with time, but yes... yes I did. I have... deep... psychological scarring... from that ordeal. I don't know how I made it through, but I did... thanks for the recognition of my eternal torment as a level 14 on NG, man... it's great to know that other people realise the PAIN OF LEVEL 14.

Now, to all of you at 13 or under... I advise you... DON'T CROSS OVER INTO 14!!! GO BACK! GO BACK!

... for you see, now it only gets longer and longer... I was level 14 from October 13th 2003 until January 11th 2004... almost 3 straight months... the hell will only continue to grow, and soon you guys will be spending 3+ months... maybe even 4 months... as level 14s.... OH, ACURSED PAIN!!! I feel for you guys. I really do. ;_;

yeah, ramagi said you were aiming to top out at no more than 32,000, which is certainly far enough past 30k to ensure you don't get passed by too many people, so good luck with that. Looks like you'll be hitting EGSC early in February, eh?

Also Congrats on the level Up.

thanks! It's good to be up here with the rest of you level 15s. We're the lucky ones... with crap behind us, and the wonderment of level 16 ahead of us... it's like Friday. The day after the crap of the workweek but before the weekend's already slipping by. The perfect day. ahhh...

KICK ASS. I'll be updating the blammer and savior lists soon, so your new 20k blams will look all neat and spiffy on the list. #;-}>

I just passed 13337 blams myself today. leeeeeeeeet. #;-}>

HAHAHAHAA ROFL HAHAHAHA

Is that like the extra levels for exp that were going to be added over a year ago that were discussed? No I am not kidding.

Why is that notion so funny? I'm not saying it's definitely going to happen, or that I think it will happen soon or ANYthing like that... just that it's a possibility, and that fixit may be hoping for that chance to come true (since we were speculating as to what the hell he's doing going past 40,000 points for no obvious reason).

If the entire top 50 list was filled with EGSCs, don't you think that one of the admins would think that perhaps it's time to add more ranks, either at the top, or somewhere in between?

(they missed a lot of ranks in the Sergeant area, for one thing, they could add a ton more in down there, and down in the early EG area, too)

Anyway, it's just a thought. Just because the admins have other stuff to worry about NOW doesn't mean they always will. It could become a higher priority in the future. After all, they don't want too many people becoming bored with the b/p system and not watching new flash anymore. All of us with high VP are supposed to be the guardian of the portal and of good flashes... if we all stopped voting because dozens of us are EGSCs, then it'd be no one but noobs deciding what stays and goes in the portal.

As far as exp, HT has to keep going or someone else will take over the lead for exp. Since Wade told my Blams/Saves were not going to work like exp. It really wasn't worth it to keep going the way I was, so I slowed down at 30K. I highly dought anytime soon they will add any more ranks if ever. They are too busy working on other stuff to worry about that. I rather see more exp levels.

He's faked me out before, but often he'll deposit halfway through the day and stop the tease... but yesterday... yesterday I was SURE he was finally going to miss a deposit. Looked like Pimp might as well, but Pimp got it 2 hours before the day ended. HT got it... TEN MINUTES BEFORE THE DAY ENDED.

God, what a bastard. What a bastard!!! (:::hoping HT will search for his name + bastard and come to our humble forum for a change, since he's only ever seen posting on general #;-}>:::)

Good job their Gfox. I too as well seemed to have depoisted from my starting day of Jan.14 - to well close to soon to Jan.14. Guess reaching 3,700 or 3690 exp at that point will surely give proof that I have. :-)

Now, I'm certainly not going to stop depositing altogether anytime soon, but if I accidentally miss a deposit here and there, I won't mind (especially since I'm into the 15/16 awesome level icon area, and thus a missed deposit now only means I'll spend more time with these lovely icons #;-}>).

I can't wait myself til I reach that point as well.
