I've been trying for months to pass ElMaster, or even narrow the gap, but can never quite manage. Each and every time I get reasonably close, I end up not being able to b/p as much for a while and fall further behind.
Why do we b/p? It's for the sense of civic duty to keep an eye on the Portal and the joy of saving quality flash while blamming the dregs of the NG society. Then again, maybe it is all about the stats and pretty badges.
About Harry Potter...yeah the Slytherin/Draco Malfoy sig pic really leaves a lot of doubt about where my loyalties lie. Personally, I didn't mind when Snape killed Dumbledore and the thought of Voldemort dying doesn't make my day. I plan to be Bellatrix for Halloween...I walk around with my son so why not dress up in costume? Plus, we volunteer at a haunted house in the area. You can kind of tell I like Halloween, huh?
I will try to check out the EGB forum...got it bookmarked somewhere on the computer. Blame it on the fanfic I'm writing...fic exchange wanted a minimum of 1500 words so of course I will most likely end the story somewhere around 25,000 words. Dang thing just won't quit.
Are ugly winter caps "in" this year?

God damn it! So close to beating Tannerite. I must make it happen. I have next week off totally, expect me to haul ass then.

Thanks for the update punk, thanks to you, my motivation to beat other people has risen.

Yeah, not happening.

Heh, the only person ever to pass me in B/P and stay there was ADT during his "multi star" days... Plus, before I got hospitalized, him and I were neck to neck, he didn't get the big lead till after that. But enough whining, to work.

have you read my random wekend activity statistics of the EGB, you could read it here

I need help getting more blams. I want to retire on 30,000 but I am going to slow I picked up my 50 per day pace total but my saves are doing good with the uu, kk, bdp and etc. Does anyone salute here anymore.

I am going to just save movies from now on, I am like 15 off from passing my blams with saves. But I only pick up like 20 a day now. And I dunno if people salute anymore, havn't seen it in a while.

Saluting was big when I first started the Barracks. Back then, the club was basically a way to have fun chatting while giving respect and recognitition to the work people put into B/Ping. Therefore, "sirs," salutes, and naming people by rank was big. That was originally why I started the club, but then we kind of moved on from that and moved to other goals (like promoting fair voting on NG, whistleblowing, and B/Ping in general. Saluting was fun when it happened, but I guess people don't want to do it anymore.

I guess I grew out of it too, simply because I loved the whole US Army-style ranking once I first made it. I even started talking that way in some threads, but not many people were receptive to the idea. I finally got up to making a club when I had made EG Sergeant, and there you go.

So from the looks of things EagleRock has been fairly active once again in the past couple of days... Now all that's left is for you to write a wrestling recap... for old time's sake.

I'm trying...since I started WoW again, I've been keeping the Macbook open for quest map purposes. This way, I can keep up B/P and with the forum. I've been watching wrestling a lot, but not intently enough to run a recap again. Maybe I'll give it a shot with ECW tonight. No promises, tho. :-)

Hey welcome back Donthurtme, and congrats on the rank up!

You better hurry up with that internet connection at home cause I'm less then 2 weeks away from passing you in experience. >=)

Yeah, it feels good to be back. I am back to depositing on weekdays at least, so it may take you a little while to catch me up, but weekends are still a problem when I am not at work. There was a time when I was just behind Phantom in experience, but the last couple of months have really slowed my pace- there was a whole month where I couldn't deposit at all!

Am waiting on my landlord to install cable so that I can connect up to the internet- I would do it myself, but he is offering a much cheaper deal and I can't really afford to ignore it. It will happen one day I am sure!

It's nice to see my name back on the Barracks Roster- I've never been the most active member of these barracks (understatement!), but I intend to change that over the coming months.

As to the saluting thing, I guess I am one of the few that persists with it, more for old times sake than anything else. Back in the day it was pretty much standard to finish all posts with a quick salute to show your respect to the Barracks, but since then this place seems to have changed a bit and it isn't quite as important. Either way I intend to keep up the traditional salute...

I know what you mean. I used to play Kings of Chaos, and I still play Urban dead, but less now than before. Trying to cut down computer time in general, including my Newgrounds addiction (I swear it's a drug...)

I never played MMO's. I just never liked playing with any one but the AI... Meh, I don't see what the fuss is about, the I'd agree NG is quite the drug.

And a lot less expensive, sort of.

Ah, I come onto Newgrounds today, and I see a new header, and a lot of missed threads and all...lots of flash I never voted on...

I'll be starting to come back now I suppose. I won't be super-active with B/P for a while (I have a really bad sleep schedule right now), but I'll try to be on the forums decently much, at least.

You be careful playing WoW... I'm a recovering addict and let me tell you, its a lot more difficult than you would think... However, I've now become addicted (for the third time) to The Sim and its numerous expansion packs. There's few things better than being allowed to let someone starve without it being a felony.

Moments like this is why I love being a stat whore. :D

And everyone can agree that the Newgrounds Halloween header is kickass, right?

Is it it too late to join 539 pages in? I probably don't meet the requirements but its worth a try.

Of course it wouldn't be! Not everyone here was a member at the beginning!

But yes, you don't meet the requirements. To be a member, you must be of Elite Guard rank (1500+ B/P). However, as you are a Security Guard, you can apply at the NGPD and see if they'll let you join. It's a good place to hang out while you work your way up the B/P ranks.

If you have any questions, just let me know.

Thanks for the info. And i tried that and my posts are not intelligent enough to join (and I agree) Im going to work on b/p points. Bye

Hey guys, sorry to sound like a broken record, but could you review my latest Flash? I know it sounds weird, but it seems like it may get underdog. It just needs some more reviews. Much love and free response points to anyone who reviews. ;)

Back on? Man you've been on the roster for months! =P

Even though it's really out of date now, you can see all the old updates by ADT
here.

BTW If you need someone to deposit for you on those weekends when your not at work, you can ask me, I'm already depositing for 3 other people atm.

Weird day for me, I made a $50 bet with 4 different friends of mine that I could do 120 push-ups for my next fitness testing at my school which is in late January. I'm in excellent physical shape right now and I really think that if I take this seriously I can do this and earn the combined 200 bucks... plus it's always fun to impress people.

So yeah, training begins tonight for me. Only 4 months left. =)

Anyone know any good routines or tips?

wow, first time i've submit something to the portal since early 05! make sure you guys play mine and dave's Jive Machine! it's good fun. i know i really shouldn't be posting this right here, but hopefully you'll all get a kick out of it!

i hope i win daily feature... doubt it though :'(

I see you got more saves than blams just b/p normally dont try to get more save or blams it will just take longer to rank up, and you regret missing the points.

THe times have changed here, and most of you officers are in b/p so you dont need promoting only the enlistees at police level. I vote unfairly all the time whatever the mass votes I do, I will flag stuff but not like LW and her posse, and b/p of course. They must have slowly phased it out.

I tried jioning the military but they said No you cant join. Yes NG members are very unlikely to join the armed forces, but I know one person thats in the army right now so its not 100% true.
