Well, it's up to you Morph, if you want to change it or not. I just capitallize my alias to emphasize the words and ideal that make up my alias. Me and my kinda serious alias. =P

I guess it's strictly a matter of preference with capitals and lowe-case letters. I did however change my name reciently. I was DRD but I had to add in 1982. It's the same name I use on all the other forums I'm a member of.

You can do whatever you want with your username ! I jus think some username are better without capitals.

Take alexsmolik for example !

Maybe take a dip in your sig?

And I'm only 3 places away from the top 50 (2 places tonight if I can stay ahead of Nijsse).

Good luck with it. If you do make it, and Nijsse pops you back out, you'll still have to make the top 50 and slide out twice more to tie Mieli.

For those not in the know, "sixth grade" in music is the highest level, not the end of elementary school.

I peaked at grade three on piano, but did grade six on voice. My last time out in '86 was my last shot at Nationals and I screwed it up by putting my hand on the piano while I was singing. Lost two points for "Form and Posture" dropping me to a 97 and the cut was 98 and never made it past States :-P~~~ Try not to do anything silly like leaning your foot against an upright ... they'll probably deduct for that too.

Haven't gotten there yet, I'll take a look in a minute.

They are 2% each, the same as the rest of the ranks, until you get to full General. That one is a 7% bonus and the SC bonus is 5%.

The rank schema that NG lists in the FAQ is one that makes a lot of sense, both in the percentages for rank-ups and for the actual breakdown on ranks (save for the glitch that there is no rank for being between 15000 and 15499). The problem is that they didn't use that, they used something else.

I just post this anytime someone quotes the NG FAQ:

Just keep in mind when reading the Badges pop-up that the stats that NG lists for the General ranks are off. They quoted an old shematic that they opted not to use.

NG says the rank stats are:
19 14,000-14,999 38% Elite Guard Major

22 19,500-21,999 44% Elite Guard Brigadier General
23 22,000-24,499 46% Elite Guard Major General
24 24,500-26,999 50% Elite Guard Lietenant General
25 27,000-29,999 55% Elite Guard General

The actual stats are:
19 14,000-15,499 38% Elite Guard Major

22 19,500-21,499 44% Elite Guard Brigadier General
23 21,500-23,499 46% Elite Guard Major General
24 23,500-25,499 48% Elite Guard Lieutenant General
25 25,500-29,999 55% Elite Guard General

Yeah it was up to me and i've decided to keep it as an upper-case letter. You wouldn't have thought that one letter in an alias would have sparked as many posts as this. Even though there were only a few.

Yeah and i prefer my capital rather than all lower-case. I like your new name aswell to be honest, your last one was a bit too plain and meaningless. Unless it was meaningful to you of course...

I hope i can do whatever i want with my name...but if it's harsh or something then i don't think that it would be allowed. Most names are better without capitals but i think mine is an exception.

like alexsmolik!

Congrats man! I remember when you were right on my heels in B/P...good times...good times.

I can still remember the day I passed vuorimies on the top 50 blam/protect list (he used to vote a lot) and now he's in the 50th spot, about to be bumped by some unknown user. Gotta keep voting to stay in the game!

Indeed, BIGMANBRAINY is on his way out aswell. I believe he was in the mid 30's at one point.

Yeah, i believe i remember that time, because it wasn't so long ago really but now he's just slowly making his way down and possibly out of the top 50.

Hey everybody, just stopped by outta boredom, whats happening y'all?

Long time no see. Instead of these fleeting vists, why don't you make a more permanent stay?

Why seems I'm known as the man to people and users I dont even know, lol kool.

Sorry Leeboy cant stay but I try to visit every cahnce I get and Recon keeps me posted on everything that happens.

By the way please to tell recon to check his mail, I'm still waiting for me weekly email bud.

Can't you see what's happening Joe? The man is slowly turning into a living legend with his prolonged absence. Most people out there instantly notice when spancker hits this forum. He only started one of the largest topics on Newgrounds..... and it keeps getting bigger! I guess I'll be sending him an e-mail tonight since he reminded me right here in the Lounge. I can't pretend I didn't see his post (lol). I still haven't given up hope about his return.

I'm a whore for alias's, as you've probably seen. They're like Pringles to me, once I've popped I can't stop!

Silly spancker, always with his rare and small appearances. Stay for longer damn you!

I passed those two assholes depositing right behind me again. That'll show them... >:(

Doesn't look like I'll stay ahead long enough for Nijsse to pop me out. He's only 10 points behind and I'm going out today. I'm going to need 1,000 points to get in the top 50 instead of the 300 I needed before. As for Miele, did you look at the amount he had? He has 11,106, not 12,106.

Aww, that sucks. It's going to suck for me if I don't finish all my TAFE work, but your story was worse as you missed it because of one mistake. I'll try not to do anything silly for a while.

You've probably popped a fair few times in your time, as your name would suggest.

You would naturally think so after reading my alias, but here is my post in the "explain what your name means thread."

I would most certainly hope so.

Does anyone know how to take screenshots with a iMac? My connection died on my PC and I have been banished to this shit Mac. I am coming on to l337 save count and I think it's worth a screenie so, Either someone randomly gets it for me, or Someone tells me how to do it. Thanks!
