Poor Eldarion, no one got him a screenie and now that he has 889 posts, he will never get a real screenie. It's too late now.

Congrats to Eld for 888 posts, Bahamut87 for Elitw GPFC, Tom_s00 for 1,111 posts (no one got him a screenie either, therefore I will give him one), SeeD for still being alive, and Kiba for 8,000 blams.

Qwoxulations to the people who got rank and level ups, D0GMA for level 16.

Well it's better than a normal congrats (which Bonus was quick to point out) and it has that personal touch.

Well, I have bad luck with dogs. So mep. Do you have MSN? I want to add you to my MSN thingy or AIM, but your contact is not shown. Mep?

I have MSN, but I don't use it that much, which is why I haven't put it in there yet. I'll put it in later, but right now my screenname is just a random bunch of letters (no, it's not qwoxyl, more like jisafobhiab), so I'll think of an actual name.

But you're not evil, just a poser <3

But so many people congratulated me. I even got an evil congratz from ramagi. That must mean I'm evil.

Also congrats to BonusStage for 5,000 saves

I'm part of the weak one, THAT OFFENDS ME *glove slap* :o

Well your glove slapping offends me *glove slap* Next time get a rank/level up and you'll get more than 'congrats'.

Pfft, the 1 ruins it. We don't love ones. ):< Congrats. =P

Well you're just going to have to wait 179 saves (it would have been 178 if I didn't hate pacman remakes).

Qwoxulations to Kiba for EGFL (and 11,111 b/p, and while we're at it, 2525 exp which I and many other 0 people can't get).

Haha. I'm just that special. ;o I can't wait for 5,555 experience. XD And then many years down the road 55,555 experience. ;)

You can get 5,555 this year if you don't miss too many deposits, but for 55,555, will you still be here in 15 years?

Kibatulations!!! Only I am cool enough to do that, in case any of you copy cats are reading this. :o

Well I'll just make my own way of giving congrats and you won't be allowed to use it. =P

Wait.. did you just get it or did it happen a while ago? wow, I should take the time to read your posts instead of taking a few seconds.

actually, we are about the same in every stat for our 'ages' here. my posts per day is a little higher, our bp lifetime is about the same, our REVIEWS are like 0.1 away from each other, and i dont know about our exp... mine is a lot better because you took a whole year off ng... naughty X! haha.

ROFL i join the top about once a week haha, i been b/p's alot last two days that may be something to do with it heh, since reviews and blams are above 10,k im improving on protects or something like that...

~X~

Well, I've been really slacking off in terms of how much time I've been spending B/P'ing and on NG in general, but that's mostly because I've been sick as hell for the last week. Even so, I have managed to reach a pretty nice number. Although, as usual I wasn't paying attention and I missed the screenie, but there's nothing I can do about that now, heh. Anyway, the number I reached is a nice round 10000 total Blams and Protects. Congrats to everyone on their recent accomplishments, I've got too much of a headache to read through them and list them all (I always seem to have an excuse, dont I?).

Tom_s00 1111 posts
Inuzuka-Kiba 8K blams
I took ascreenie earlier but it didn't come out well.
Since no one else posted one.

yea thanks for the motivation.
anyway, i only got a lousy 30 reviews today... nothing at all that great.. i'm going to have a busy week of work this week so i'm not having high expectations for myself in terms of BP or reviews...

Congrats or... YoinKalations to anyone of their latest newgrounds achievements! hehe

I see M-A-R-C-U-S is reviewing.. if he keeps this up.. he'll eventually pass j00bie in reviews. oh my shits!

wait so...i come here whenever i level up so i can show off and humiliate those who are lower leveled then me?WOOT there is a god....i just got to level 7, woot @ me

Alkador congratulates:
- Qwoxyl for 16,666 blams. May the kangaroos be with you. If anyone actually said that in Australia, they'd probably be punched in the face.
- Eldarion for 888 posts. Are you a Wi/ht? Member, Regular or just a poster? A mystery for me.
- Bahamut7 for his Elite Guard Private First Class. May the platinum dragon from AD&D be with you.
- Tom_s00 for 1,111 posts. You're fast, cunning and evil. I can already predict the next post feat you'll be achieving as I am psychic.
- Inuzuka-Kiba for reaching 8000 blams. First, 10k, then 11,111, now 8k blams. Stop voting!
- Pure_Greatness for 10,000 b/p points. May you get better and hopefully you will kick ass.

Qwoxulations, Marculations, Alkadorating, Mazzatulations and YoinKalations. Kiba, stop stealing our congrats. :P

Ok, no problem. I just like to have lots of contacts when I'm bored. I usually get between 20 - 25% of contacts online at all times for me.

How is everyone? Story update soon, I just have to write it (see Mazza, I can handle it as well as I said).

War of the Portal
10 - “The Sealing”
Note: The Latin is not perfect.

Jonthomson and Gfoxcook stood at the centre of the island, ensuring that their backs were together. They brought their right hands to their chests, muttering the spell in unison. Their deep words echoed throughout the whole portal.

“They’re coming,” Said TheJoe324.

“Vis viris supter. Vis viris superus. Vis viris eminus oriens et occasus.”

A submissions bursted from the ocean of pink, flying towards the prepared guard. He struck his hammer at the creature as it fell back into the portal.

“Ego vocare vis viris eminus intestinus universum. Vis viris reservare.”

Drimarki threw his fist at one of the black mutated submissions that climbed onto the ledge. The man punched the seemingly immortal creature back into the chasms of the portal.

“Vis viris liberare. Redeo vis viris illo dextera.”

A red ball of energy began to stream in the men’s right hands, a energy created from fine threads that seemed the same as the threads that flickered in the sea beneath them. Inuzuka-Kiba and BonusStage threw their fists at the wild submissions made their way up to the portal, ensuring that they were not struck in the process.

“Qui illo vis viris qui quondam qua. Vis viris nunc. Et illo vis viris fieri sum. Mei.”

Recon_Rebel threw uppercuts and high kicks to the submissions that dared to move towards the two spellcasters. He smiled as he punched his fist through the body of a white submission, killing it instantly. Energy continued to fill Recon_Rebel as he attacked more submissions.

“Ego vocare vis viris eminus pectus mundus adjicio dextera. Illo vis viris contegere.”

RedCircle launched his bat at the wild submissions, ensuring that they went back from where they came from. He gasped as he noticed a black submission with a large pink gem attached to its forehead, attempting to move closer to the focused guards. He charged towards it as its eyes flashed towards him, followed by a sudeen bolt of electricity erupted from the ground. He dodged the spell as TheJoe324 slammed the strange creature back into the portal.

“Vis viris effringo et potentia sic verus. Honor, veritas et justicia. Convenio me.”

Time was running out. The edge of the island was slowly crumbling away as Drimarki slipped, clinging onto the edge with his life.
Inzuka-Kiba clambered down to his aid. “I won’t let go – I promise!”
Recon_Rebel and BonusStage moved towards them as two black submissions tried to leap on the defenseless men, intending to push them both of the edge. Recon_Rebel slammed his fist against one of the incoming submissions, forcing the monster’s face to the ground.

“Vis viris vocare contego omnis iam.”

“I can’t hold on any longer!” Cried Drimarki.

“Contego intestinus universum!”

The two guards spoke together once more. “It is done! The portal is sealed!”

Grats everyone, and grats WayneColt, sorry i forgot mate. Im still not getting 10k till friday so stop bloody asking ~X and MARCUS, dammit.

Problem

When i log in on NG there is no pictures that i can see, i cant see the newgrounds tank up in the top left anymore, i cant see peoples sig pics, and i cant see peoples level avatars beside their posts. The most disturbing thing is, in the portal, i cant see the coloured backgrounds, so i dont know which is under judgement. I think it must be flash player, but i just re-installed it and its still the same. The reason im posting this in here is because i cant see the buttons for new topic/reply to this post etc.. I cant see the buttons at the top of the screen aswell, but when i mouse over them, i can still click them.

Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is ?

Nice story Alkador.

I think it has something to do with you about 12 posts away heh, no i dont know maybe you need a new flash player or something...

If you aren't seeing even the .gifs for the level icons, then it could be a few things.

Most firewalls will allow you to block images, and some allow you to block them by type. With some there's a even setting that blocks animation as well, so you could see the first frame of an animated .gif, but none of the rest.

Many browsers now have image blocking, usually as a default. If you've recently changed browsers, or someone was fiddling with yours when you were away from the computer, they could have activated turned on image blocking.

Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape has an Ad Blocker add-on, which will allow you to block out various items on a page. If you got too free-wheeling with your wildcards, you easily could have blocked ALL NG related images, instead of just certain annoyance ads.

You know D0GMA, i really love you so bad. Your always always helping me fix my fucking computer, im starting to think i should buy you something and send you, i swear. That was the problem, someone put Newgrounds on Block in my web options for firefox.

I thank you deeply.

*Now* have image blocking? Browsers have always had that option, I remember using it all the time back in the day when on 14.4...

It's so nice not having Maths now, I can concentrate on my English and ICT (and B/Ping =P, although not in school :( ). Maths was awful and I hated it. I don't even know why I took it. It also means I have more free lessons now! =D

Anyhoo, I'm still trying to get my whistle level up, and I've been intermittently flagging reviews. Hopefully it should be bronze sometime soon.

Everyone okay? =D

Dammit, wrong account. Sorry. =(

Muahaha, I just found my friend's old NG account. He hasn't used ot for ages! He thinks I'm sad for being a regular Newgrounder, but I think he's more sad for being a Halo 2 fanboy. S'pose it depends on the point of view...

It's just so much easier to get to it on the newer browsers. IE still has it buried under Advanced Options, so most people don't even know that it's there.

I didn't know it was there. I didn't even know you could block images, anyway, so it shows how much I read about web browsers!
