No I´m pretty sure. I checked the dates of his reviews and it seems like he was in the 680-700 range somewhere around september.
Oh, okay.
But from what people say, life's got a semi-automated system for that, so maybe it doesn't take as long.
Yes, they must have some sort of semi-automated system for that. I don´t think they´d be updating it weekly if it was all done manually and took as long as the pentalist to update. I´m sure life and Afro would have better things to do than wasting their whole saturdays on doing updates.
Wasting my entire Saturday doing updates is pretty much what I did back in the ol' weekly updates of the VP list days, actually. #;-}> Then ShittyKitty came along and saved me some free time.
Yeah, but how much time exactly? :p Updating this list usually takes about 1.5 hours, or 1 hour if I work really fast. If Excel really is that much faster then I guess it would be better to move the file to excel instead of using notepad.
It's hard to remember, man. Plus, if I tell you, say, it took 8 hours to do the top 500 VP list with Excel, what does that tell you? I'd have to know how long it would take to do the list out of notepad for comparison's sake.
So uh... 20 hours? Total bullshit guess, of course.
Excel has to be twice as fast as notepad. (more bullshit, but probably true)
Which happens quite often in the Audio Reviewers List topic, luckily. There are tons of almost invisible users in the audio portal =/
Indeed.
But if all of us just do a bit of htat... it's less of a waste of time for each of us, yet could have far better results. I'm definitely going to keep an eye out for 700+ reviewers, and check if they're already on your updates.
If everybody did that, it´d be very nice. But I can´t expect everyone to do 'my job'.
No, but a buncha people pitching in is how the listmaking community has worked for 5+ years on this forum. It's one of the many things that makes Wi/Ht? (and I suspect Flash and Programming) the great communities that they are, compared to the cesspool that is General, where everyone makes threads based on made-up sex parties they go to, and the like.
On the 4th of november last year :p
1000 fell out of the top 50 that recently, eh? Well... that's trouble, then. I had hoped it was even longer ago... since that would mean staying on this list has gotten easier as of late. I FEARED IT HAD NOT, and I was correct.
As for this weeks update, gfoxcook made his way back into this list. Welcome back to him =) Legionnaire-X is leaving the list again, so goodbye to him.
Huzzah! Thanks for the welcoming backing. Sorry. Legionnaire-X. ;_;
Like last week and the week before, the activity this week is really low once again. If this keeps going like this it might be better to do bi-weekly updates instead of weekly ones... =/
Uh... dude... I reviewed 33 flashes just to get back on this list. If that's not activity, I don't know what is!
"Level ups"
Coop83 - 900 reviews
rune-hunter - 800 reviews
I guess I saved my "700 reviews" level up for next update, then.
I got deleted down from 699 to 698 a few days ago, BTW, so I reviewed a couple more flashes and now I'm at 700 even.
Update #133
699 reviews for update #133. What update did I get kicked off on, anyway?

HEY YOU GAIZ.
3) 06850 || + 003 || Cyberdevil
4) 05253 || -- 003 || milinko959
5) 04918 || -- 004 || MI4-REAL-2001
... Well, at least SOMEONE in the top 5 is gaining, not falling... YOU GO, CYBERDEVIL!

... Still, I suppose it's not TOO daunting that only 2 people have managed to break 1000 reviews in the past... half year or so. MAYBE THERE IS HOPE FOR THE REST OF US TO NOT FALL OFF TEH LISTS.... (again)

Hooray! I'm glad no one snuck up on me while I was getting back on the list.
...
hey... uh.... HEY! +???..... what the. Dude, I was at 666 reviews when I was at #100 and then got kicked off the list. I was at #666 when you did update #132. I thought you knew all of that and would take it into account for the update. It was half of the reason I reviewed 33 movies in 3 days. I wanted to not only make it back on the list (that was the other half of the reason, but I coulda taken my time to do so)....
but I wanted to be #1 on the "most reviewed this week" list, too. ;_;
Top 10 this week:
01) +036 | rune-hunter
02) +011 | Coop83
Oh. Nevermind. Even with my +33, I would have been second to rune-hunter.
Oh well, that's a relief, then. All my effort was wasted, but it would have been wasted anyway. Though I do love the look of silver more than gold. ;_;
Thanks for the update, dude. I'll make sure to make up for this "slight slight."
I'm gonna review just a few flashes within the next week or so.... but at some point soon, I'm going to review all the way up to 777 in one huge rush. I WILL GRAB THE #1 SPOT. Damn you, rune-hunter, DAMN YOU! I'll bet you saw my posts earlier up on this page of the topic and decided to defeat me. I SHALL NOT ALLOW THIS AGAIN. I shall strike at a time of MY choosing. Yes.
