I atually used to have one for a while, but I feel behing in whistling so I was demoted to a gold one, but I've been working real hard on getting it back to Deity, Should be there in a week or two

Well, I'm sure as you all know, today is Anti-Clock Day. I'm not sure if there is going to be an unusual amount of Flashes in the Portal today, but I'll be here for the majority of the day to help out. I think we should keep an eye out for rule-breaking Flashes, because special days like this always seem to contain them.

Hopefully, today won't be a horrible day in which Meatspin and such get through the Portal, which I highly doubt due to the fact that there isn't 50+ Under Judgement Flashes in the Portal right now. You would think that since Clock Day is all about voting 5s, that Anti-Clock Day would be all about voting 0s, but that is not the case.

I'm not pulling a DoD either, so don't get my message misinterpreted.

I like your thinking, soldier!

The only 'critical' purpose it would serve is getting any Garbage Whistle members/potential members up to Normal or higher, but since no current members have Garbage Whistles, that's not a problem, heh.

To be honest, that is a requirement to join the Barracks (no garbage whistle). If a member obtains a garbage whistle, it's required to get it clear. This is a rule that kinda fell through the cracks, but it's there.

However, lots of Barracks members don't have Deity Whistles. If you desire one...or even just upgrading to bronze/silver/gold from whatever you're at, post there and get involved!

I'll consider it...I may want to start lurking on the abusive reviews thread to get started. I'd like at least a gold if I can.

Note that a lot of whistle functions are not yet operational due to the redesign, so some goals of this improvement project won't be available until they are. I don't know if whistle points are even counting at the moment (I've sent absent a PM asking him, lol), but even if they're not, we can still get started so people will be ahead when it IS back up, heh.

Good call. I'd like to know when you find out as to whether it's working or not.

Thanks again for all your hard work, Slash!

Agreed. DEFCON is updated below.

You would think that since Clock Day is all about voting 5s, that Anti-Clock Day would be all about voting 0s, but that is not the case.

Well, either way, it's going to be about voting fairly, so your voting shouldn't change whether they are mass 0'ing or mass 5'ing. I don't think there will be a huge "skew" of votes, either, as that only seems to happen for Clock Day. Others like Lock Day are popular, but votes are much less biased.

I'm not pulling a DoD either, so don't get my message misinterpreted.

Quite okay.

Here's a:

DEFCON Update:

I'm increasing the DEFCON to DEFCON 2 for now, as the flaggable submissions are high in rate at the moment. I expect more to occur as the day goes by. Keep diligent and use your VP and your whistle to its extent!

Ah i have gold right now luckily. It's really easy to get gold with the new redesign.

I'll have a deity when kidray76 starts deleting the reviews. Plus i'm gonna start posting there once they get deleted.

I'm thinking of hunting down lots of abusive reviews (mostly via the Random Portal link) and PM'ing a big list to those who sign up, so they can get a first crack at them before I post em in the abusive review thread to be coup de grace'd.

You should search "i hate" i normally look there plenty of racist,anti-american,and anti-newgrounds flashes.

Ah i've kinda lost the wanting to whistle abusive reviews. I need to start wanting to do that but eh i just don't wanna mark them until they start getting deleted. I can't wait the for new improvements project to be in full stream.

Man, the portal sure isn't what it used to be, I remeber (not even a year ago) when I would easily make 80 B/P points a day (back when we did our daily updates in the EGB, untill we were told not to) but now if I watch the portal throughout the day I'll get mabey 50 B/P

But it's going twice as fast as it was yesterday, I'm supriesed there wasn't a small flood of flashes for Amti-Clock Day. I guess since it's not an "official" NG holoday not many people made flashes/games for it

Same but luckily i have insomnia and stay up late at night and get an easy 30-40 b/p's. Then during the day i'll get 60-80. I wish i was here when it was faster but eh i'm happy with my pace.

Yes yesterday was unbareably slow. I got like 80 that day when the day before i got 122. It sucks when you're trying to get 100 B/p a day week total when it's slow i barely did it i got like 100.459. Hmm i wonder if the anti-clock day flashes will be saved i hope not because most aren't gonna be that great. All i know is madness day's coming up and i can't wait to see the results.

But if you guys want us to have deity whistles, than I'll work on it.

Meh, I was never a huge B/Per before I got here, and even now I make only 15-20 a day. So I'm not really effected with the redesign or Clock Day.

There should be more than what there is; not only is it Anti-Clock day, in a strict of irony, it's PirateClock's birthday. As more become aware that it's each of these days, more flash will come in. Hopefully.

Neither can I. After this past Clock Day, hopefully people will wise up and either stop submitting B clones and really really shitty flashes. or blam the B clones and really really shitty flashes

That is very good, heh. We haven't had that case come up much, but yeah, it'll be good to have in the future. If any member wants to join and has a Garbage Whistle, but appears to not be a general dickhead, I'll offer to help them repair it so that they may someday join up.

Gold is shiny. STILL WISH WE HAD A PLATINUM WHISTLE THOUGH.

Absent tells me that review mod controls and whistle points are still down; however, that doesn't mean we can't still get started!

...was a ripe dick.

I didn't bother to search through all the pages to find when I exactly posted this, but I was able to find it in my own post history. The new system makes it a bitch to try to find anything outside of the last 4 pages, the first 6 pages, and X amount of pages ago.

Yes, happy 800! I noticed this, but didn't say anything about it since at the time I didn't have anything else to say.

Also, since there have been a few people quoting their sign-up post, I htought I'd go see what I had to say.

Also, it was my 5th post on the BBS, ever. lol. I was a forum newb.

"RSQViper reporting for duty, sirs! What are my orders?"

And that's... it. Wow. All my other posts were good, though. Many lines, plus I had tons of reviews at the time and a silver whistle. I guess that's how I got in.

Well, I'm off to hit the dusty trail. I clocked in about 110-130 B/P points today, so all is good. I'm surprised that there weren't that many rule-breaking Flashes today, huh. Since all seems well, I'm out for the night. I have training (School) tomorrow.

Eh i got 121 today wasn't that great. I expected a lot more flashes but it was pretty much normal and slowing done a lot now. I hope madness day's a big hit and not like anti-clock day.

Yeah, I'm wondering what the voting circumstances are going to be whenever Madness Day rolls around. Of course, everything will be fully watched and be given a fair vote, but it seems of lately that it is harder to Blam crappy submissions, even ones from lonewolf, amatuer Flash makers.

Yeah, I noticed it as well, since I made the first post on the page. Like you however, I didn't feel like talking about it if nobody else was going to. I think I have been here for roughly 600 pages now. Don't "quote" me on that, but I think I signed up somewhere in the early 200 pages.

I think we'll all be around for page 1,000. It only took 5 months to go from 700 to 800, and we get more recruits almost every week, which means more posts. So in about a year we should be at 1K

YOU feel old? I've been out of school for over a year now, and I had 6 years of college. Go figure.

Speaking of story updates, I haven't forgotten my Barracks story. I've been busy working on other stuff, most prominently working on hosting that game that Pancakes mentioned in here yesterday. Once I get that squared away, I'll be able to rock out some more chapters. Considering their prior host has taken down the server, I don't think it'll be long before I get my server up.

Aw, man what's all this people saying how old they feel?

I'm 29 and I ain't old! Yet... When I'm 45 I'll start being old. Maybe.

Good news is a little over 100 more B/P and I rank up again. Thank you Clock Day for that. Although, if people voted a little more realistically that day I would have ranked up TWICE on Clock Day.

I am getting a lot done on "You Love This Movie" and so is boinky33 who I am working on it with. It's starting to get exciting as we can see the the light at the end of the tunnel. Still a ways to go on the action scenes, but almost everything else is done.
