When are there loads of Under Judgement submission in the portal? There's always a different number, but it just seems so random...

Come on when it's peak time for America (central time) which is 7 o'clock ish. It is still kinda random though according to when pepople feel like submitting movies.

Congrats to people that levelled up also.

Grats also to Baron, James, and lightning on rankups. Now all we have to do is get lightning to stop being so proud of his new rank. I've been receiving a lot of complaints from recruits about an officer running around the base giving them "the bird."

Just 66 pts more till level 10...

Want to see a really tight cluster?

Yesterday

Today

I'm interested in #59, who's that guy?

Any one else getting a fucked up thanks for voting screen? I hope i'll still get my points.

No, everything seems to be fine. What's fucked in your voting screen?

It only showed the ads...... It's fine now and it even registerd my votes. =]

I got that a few times today. I'm almost positive it counted your b/p. Because it DID say "thanks for voting" up top, which means your vote has been counted but the screen to tell you so is messed.

Well good luck getting it, and welcome to the Wi/Ht level up lounge!

I am looking forward to me getting to lvl 11, only a little over 3 days till then! But what I really can't wait for is the lvl 14 Pipe! I should be getting that around my Birthday!

Ah ... much better than that silly old 1L sig I've been carting around since the IdiotXXX fiasco.

Hah, love the sig. Congrats on your general status.

During my packing, I managed to find the last copy of this and I finally managed to post the last of the "Laws" in my profile. I've had this for ~20 years now, from back when I moved into my first apartment and somehow this little gem managed to keep making the trip. I'm sure the list is quite short of those who even saw part of it, so here they are:

Murphy's Laws of Combat

1. If the enemy is in range, so are you.
2. Incoming fire has the right of way.
3. Don't look conspicuous, it draws fire.
4. There is always a way.
5. The easy way is always mined.
6. Try to look unimportant, they may be low on ammo.
7. Professionals are predicatable, it's the amateurs who are dangerous.
8. The enemy invariably attacks on two occasions:
a. When you are ready for them.
b. When you are not ready for them.
9. Teamwork is essential, it gives them someone else to shoot at.
10. If you can't remember, then the claymore is pointed at you.
11. The enemy diversion you have been ignoring will be the main attack.
12. A "sucking chest wound" is nature's way of telling you to slow down.
13. If your attack is going well, you have walked into an ambush.
14. Never draw fire, it irritates everyone around you.
15. Anything you do can get you shot, including nothing.
16. Make it tough for the enemy to get in and you won't be able to get out.
17. Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than yourself.
18. If you're short of everything but the enemy, you're in a combat zone.
19. When you have secured an area, don't forget to tell the enemy.

And my absolute personal favorite

20. Never forget that your weapon is made by the lowest bidder.

Haha, great D0GMA. Recon should love those! So do you know all those off by heart?

And in the race to #1 (or what ever spot i will stop). I became #22 becouse for some reson stafffighter and Captain_Bob slowed down a lot, and seeing there where every close it shouldn't be hard catshing bob to today. =D

I still remember when I did that. That part was easy. It was just Oderus_Urungus who was giving me a hard time, and you know what? Even he's slowed down now. You're probably going to have a really easy time getting into the Top 20. Congratulations though, dude. I knew you'd make it up here eventually. You're only a hundred points away from that goal, so I don't think I'm congratulating you too early either. But yeah, good job on the rank-up too. All the best, dude.

So yeah, I've been doing beautifully lately. I broke 10,000 Blams earlier today and I also managed to break 16,000 blam/protect points as well. I managed to catch a screenshot of the former too, as you can see right here below. You know what's kind of funny though? This is just a weird fact, and it'll probably make me look more like a "noob" than ever before, but this screenshot is actually the very first screenshot that I figured out how to do all by myself. Before this, I always just got other people to do my screenshot work for me. But now, I think I have it all figured out. It's stupid, I know, but I'm pretty damn proud of this thing. So, without further ado, my screenshot. Ain't it sweet?

~probably half of them. Given time, I could probably manage to work out most of the rest, but bound to forget 2 or 3.

If you're looking for a good laugh, check out my St. Patrick's Day post over in General. Threw it together when I realized it was already the day ;-)

Congrats on that 10,000 blam mark. It's nice seeing 5 digits in the profile. Oh and all you had to do was ask and I/we'd would've told you how to take screens.

hi all

10,000 Blams........WOW!!!! Good going on that.

Congrats to you too DOGMA on reaching 1 Star, keep BLAMMIN away

Hehe, three milestones in one day WTG =) Now if only you had managed to rank and level up today as well ...

Thanks much. I've been in fixit-mode lately and don't see that ending any time soon. Aiming for rank, trying to catch alex on the top 50 list (and keep him from catching me on the Blam list) has me a lil extra motivated. Heck, I even voted to blam an illwillpress movie today and I never do that.

yeah this is my 666th post... hell yeah

1000 posts for me :)

well, guys... I've been trying to catch up on Wi/Ht for like 2 hours now. But I am totally smashed in honour of St. Patrick's Day (and courtesy of 5 Guinness bottles, 2 Beck's Dark bottles, and 1 Old Peculier bottle), so...

it's getting a bit rough going. Plus, deposit time's coming up and all. Anywho, I responded to 3/4 of my list topics, I'll get to the review, BP 51+, top posters, 10k+ quadlist, and other topics tomorrow or thereabouts.

Congrats to Nemesis on 13.37 VP, and to everyone else, who I will congrat specifically at a later time! WOOT!

And happy saint patrick's day to ALL! And to all a good night.

[this message brought to you by the GFox and Guinness "Saint Patrick's Day Coalition for Drunken Post Making"]

okay... and after making some posts to General, where it's easier for my drunken mind to operate without confusion and pain... I have come up to 5299 posts... so... here I am for one last little goodnight.

After 9 beers (6 of them Guinness, go Ireland!) and some Irish Cream, I am DONE for the night (done with drinking, done with posting, done with being online, the whole thing!), so...

I bid everyone adieu. Hope everyone had a great St. Paddy's Day 2004. And as I said before... I'll catch up soon in all the other topics. I PROMISE. #;-}>

5300... I'm out! g'night all!

Gfox, when you are drunk you still make more sense then most of us when we are sober.
I am glad you are having a Nice St. Patties day, I slept through mine, I guess I should make up for it and get drunk over the week end.

Damn, I tell you, I love my new Badge, I seem to be gaining votting power much faster now huzzah!

Congrats to all who lvled up in some form!

Mike
