God's sakes, four more points needed and the portal is DEAD. It's always the way. Will leave 10,000 blams for tomorrow. Or Thursday, really ought to do some work tomorrow :-)

It has been slower in its prime hours for the past few days, maybe it is just the holidays.

It's always the way.

Aha, this is true, right when you want it to be busy, it dies off.

Will leave 10,000 blams for tomorrow. Or Thursday, really ought to do some work tomorrow :-)

Good luck with that. That's a huge milestone.

*dances*

I just ranked up to Elite Guard Lieutenant General and cleared 18,000 blams.

About god damn time.

Indeed it is. Congrats, my man.

I had a few sixes in my profile today then I noticed I had become a b/p luetenant. Pretty damn good because I became a seargent sometime last week.
Also, my voting power is 6.06 which is above 5, and 5 is the norm for most users.
March has been good to me.

Well looks like my thoughts were right with the whole FIG becoming a mod deal. And now I give an official congrats to you. Also a congrats goes out to jon for that rank up I've seen him make oh so many posts about. ;) Nothing exciting here. Sadly. :'(

Big congrats to FDA for becoming mod, wait, I mean the real F-man, the one, the F, the man, FIGGY. Who can ban MARCUS for getting too many round numbers, having a new computer and causing chaos with said things. Or not, enjoy your power.

:P oh i will...
this computer is the mo'fo'ing bomb i swear....

GAH! MUCHOS AWESOmE!

no new achievments for me.

Well Big congratz to jonthomson.
Congratz to everyone else too. I am tired off to bed.

Congrats to:

-M-A-R-C-U-S: 5k Exp, 4k Reviews, 9k Blams, 4k Saves, top 100 B/P, top 600 Exp....Dang.
-Snowy_Beast: 3,000 Exp. Not far from your level up, either.
-Qwoxyl: 7,777 Saves. Nice screenshot.
-High_Roller: EG Private. No big deal that you missed it, at least you have it now :P And you can always steal the next guy's screenshot.
-BillyTalent: EG Private. Nice.
-Tom_s00: EG Sergeant Major. New euphemism: 'Stroking the bird'
-Foxphere: EG Lieutenant General, 18,000 Blams. Nice, even though your badge just became cluttered.
-jonthomson: EG Major. Huzzah for leaf badges!
-Myst_Williams: 3,000 Posts. I don't like level 12 either.
-Nike_Dunk: Making my eyes hurt with dark letters :( Oh yeah, also congrats on your 6.00+ VP and Police Lieutenant.

Bleh, I hate not having anything to report. Only minor milestone is that this is my 4,100th post, but hundreds suck, so whatever.

Level-up

i want to race through this rank, and one i get prap, i will probably slow right down, gold badge is enough to keep me happy : )

Congrats on you rank up, also, the easter holidays help somewhat when trying to keep pace...

You were ahead of me yesterday.

Finally moved up to 222 in experience yesterday after being 223 for AGES. Yay.

Allright, just gained the rank of Police Captain.
It is a huge achievment for me, but seeing all you others with 10k b/p+, makes me feel kind of small. Meh, what do you do, just keep blamming and saving until i get there as well.

Congrats to:

High_Roller - Elite Guard Private. Nice.
BillyTalent - Elite Guard Private. Two EGP rank ups at the same time? O_o
Tom_s00 - Elite Guard Sergeant Major. Well, just another 1000 for you.
Foxphere - Elite Guard Lieutenant General, 18000 blams. Very nice.
jonthomson - Elite Guard Major, 222th highest EXP. That's good.
Myst_Williams - 3000 posts. Almost twice the amount of posts I have.
Denvish - Level 16. Aw, I miss your chains.
Frostbreath - Police Captain. EG Private isn't far away now.

With the help of SK's NumDays Calculator and Nemisis' Experience Calaculator, I just worked out that if if I had kept my first NG account from 2001, and never missed a deposit, I'd be 5 days from LV 23 now >_<

This is so confusing. Lots of the regulars and members are levelling up and some are changing their auras, that it's hard for me to keep up. I'm not sure if I can not get confused with what's happening.

<Boring Story About Me>
Oh, shock revation. I wanted to let people be aware of this because I find it interesting. When I was younger, I was very very very bad at English to a level you couldn't understand (or so I remember). After learning English better, I began to indulge in creative stories and crazy stuff when 7 or 8 (Alkador was born). And then I suddenly gain this talent of writing stories. I remember back to grade 6 when my teacher told me how crap my story was and I was rather hurt. It was entirely fictional about a spider who managed to live in a igloo in a freezer and she told me that it should be real and all this crap. I got so pissed (I hate her), that I began to write creative stories in rebellion. So that's how my talent for story writing came to be. But, that's the only thing I'm good at in English. I really work hard in essays, except, I can never get that A or above. Sigh, oh well.
</Boring Story About Me>

Back to news. Anyone notice that the Real Legend of Zelda2 reached #1 in Top 50, First Daily Prize, first Weekly Prize and the Review Crew Pick? Has anyone else seen a movie that has risen so fast that quick? Please let me know if you have.

How are you feeling today?

Oh yes, that was what Fallen Angel: Teaser was like. Too bad the new flash is going to get hammered down until it's no longer number 1. >_<

I did infact notice that Alkador, and wrote an extra long review (by my standards) just to show my appreciation, seeing as how it was a great Flash and all. I'm sure it will slip down in the rankings though, just give it some time.

Nice going. And yeah, just keep on cruisin' through those UJ movies/games and you'll catch us.

How do people.

"My quest for new (and old) music is ever continuing, with today's £4.99 purchace of Gang Of Four - Entertainment!. So far it seems to be a lot like the band who was influenced by them, Bloc Party, and that's no bad thing. With a crunchy guitar sound and funky drums, it seems to be pretty rebellious music. I think I could seriously get to like this band."

What do you think? I'm playing around with the idea of using my degree in English studies (when/if I get it) to become a music journalist, interviewing musicians and writing gig and album reviews instead of teaching English in secondary schools. I think I'd probably enjoy it more.

Anyhoo, congrats to everyone who deserves it, namely jonthomson, Tom_s00 and FIGMENTUM. :)

Yeah, but it rocked REAL HARD. The Real Legend of Zelda's cool, funny, long, but too slow if you want my opinion ... it's a little boring all the way ...

Plus I say Madness Depredation would've deserved it better. TRLoZ only won because it has been posted at the last day of the ng week.

Well, after being away for over a year I got back online a few weeks ago and have finally made EG PFC.

I'm still not in the same league as the heavy hitters that frequent this thread, of course.
