Alkador fanfare music to:
- ShittyKitty for 6.00 base VP. I think I should be nearing that too.
- TheJoe324 for acquiring the hatchet. You remind me very much of -poxpower- now.

Somehow I guess it's necessairy if you want to keep a balanced story (overall). I'm just gonna wait for the troubles to come back at us :)

I need some filler chapters once in a while. I can't hold action in every chapter, but I'm going to try and make some of them incredibly funny, if I have the ability to. I kind of did stop the story while this...issue...was very tense and that's why it didn't come sooner.

I knew you'd make an appearance at the mention of a save. Good question, I looked in my dictionary and found no such word. I think they meant 'blame'.

I know, it's like someone stuck a clog up in the flood of the damn control. Yesterday, there was one submission (Gleek) I told my friend to save while at his house. Four hours later, I return to my own house find that it was the only saved movie with four under judgement movies. Strange stuff. How have you been anyway?

How is everyone feeling today? I had a funy day with my relatives, as we went to an island (which was properly civilized).

Thanks! That's probably the nicest thing anyone (on NG, anyway) has ever said to me.

Truth is, though, that although I've been around a while and have gotten to "know" many of the personalities here in Wi/Ht?, I am such a total ignoramus when it comes to computers that I may as well BE a noob.
I guess I'm a "veteran noob." LOL.

Whats a Blam?

Something your bunny is familar with. Or what happens to a flash so bad that even you had to vote low on it (and those movies must be the worst ever to have existed).

LMAO, worst movies ever lol. too funny. Actully almost ALL of my 90 Blams were accidents. about 50 of them came from over a year ago when if you blammed something and you were the 200th vote, and even though you voted a 2-5, you still got a blam point. About 10 were "oops i clicked the "1" instead of the "2." And the rest is the movies i blammed when i started up my account and I didn't have the save passion going.

The only movie i remember blamming was when Mr. Rogers died, and some guy made a movie about pissing on his corpse and grave and other nasty stuff.. unacceptable :P

DirkDettlaff - 100 posts. Not a bad start, so I find that okay.
_IAMCanadian_ - EGPFC. Good, now for Corporal. :)

I just passed the milestone of 2500 blams, hell yes!!!! IUnless the portal is extremly slow, I can have 2500+ blams and 1000+ saves before going to level 10. :) It is really hard to find any level 9 users who has more b/p points than me. I am the king of n00bs. (Just kidding)

Fuck. >:(

I managed to fall playing football today, putting my whole weight on my right hand as I fell. My elbow really fucking hurts, and now all my e-activities are being conducted through my left hand, so I'm typing like a crippled granny at the moment >:(

I'm sure you're injured hand is of more concern to you in respect to non-e-activities :-)

Well, I am pretty sure Wade went through all the abusive reviews and movies....i went from normal to silver

Once again, congrats to everyone.

Unless he removed some movies a couple of days ago, I doubt it. The flagged review list looks much the same and there's not much in the obituaries today.

I haven't been doing great on NG today. There are a lot of moives which scores are among 1.4-1.8, and it was hard to decide if I should vote 1 or 2. (makes huge difference) In 80% of the time, my vote for such a moive failed bring me points because when I voted for a blam, it was protected, when I voted for a protect, it was blammed. (I could not check the authors' profiles because they were not clickable.) It appears that I have not been for lucky today which is really annoying.

Congrats! Yes, that did happen to me when I got a whistle level up.

Also, I got another thread about me. This was very strange compared to the last one. It was about me using a hats sig and someone trying to make a better sig for me without me even asking him, LOL. I feel so happy. Two threads about him within a month. So that's a good thing for me. Too bad it got locked. Oh well.

Thanks to Bahamut7, -Mazza- and others.

When the conversation switched to -Mazza- and YoinK_VineS, ramagi pushed her plate forwards, standing up and leaving the room, wiping her eyes.

Yes, liljim actually put that up very quickly after it was suggested in the 'NG evolution' topic.

Awsome! I noticed that yesterday whilst cruising the Audio Portal[Check our Baron_Von_Bad_Guys' latest song, it's awsome. : ) ] Maybe the Blam/Protection point badges will get a spruicing as well, yes?

Hello dull old chain. ;) Looks like you missed level 16 by 2 points, bummer. You'll get it tonight though, won't be the same, used to seeing you with that chain. And you've changed your aura, so it's going to be even more wierder. :S

Yeah, especially from 2am-5am ESN time. :/ But it's the best when it's night time though, less people means you can travel the site quicker, and other sites and what not.

It'll be a while before I get used to that icon of him owning it yes that one. I still say he was best with the level 19 icon. I still remeber that one. Same with Dekathos and ramagi, it's funny seeing them with the wands. :/ Battle axes look oh so much cooler.

How is everyone feeling today? I had a funy day with my relatives, as we went to an island (which was properly civilized).

LOL! You make it sound like you live in the middle of nowhere. :P But that's cool. I had fun digging up half of my yard yesterday due to the well pipe busting underground. : ( 8 ft of digging yesterday. : (

Why was the text in our profiles changed to the big, bold format? I didn't notice any posts about it. Do a lot of users have bad eyesight?

Okay SK, there's a number of older guards who use the site computer and their vision isn't what it used to be. Sometimes when I've gone to use Microsoft Word the letters are freakin' huge! Is it possible one of them changed the system settings last night? If so where do I look to reset it? Christ, it's like reading "See Spot Run".

If you're using Internet Explorer, Go to View > Text Size > Medium.

In IE or Firefox, try clicking the View menu and selecting Font Size. IE's default is Medium, while in Firefox you can select "Normal" and it'll reset the font sizes.

Thanks much Joe & SK. That fixed the problem. We had a new guard on last night (in his mid 50's) so it must have been him. I hope my sight never gets that bad.
