Sure, but if I'm going to wait a whole month for a Roster update, I want it more fancy than fancy pants, with all sorts of pointless stats.

Now watch me get executed by my readers for saying such a blasphemous thing.

Also, OH GOD WHY WAS CLOCK DAY MENTIONED?

Because we were talking about Portal Mods and how people have been complaining about spam/think that Portal Mods are necessary. I just thought what happens if they do bring in portal mods? We get rid of Clock Day also? Or at least change it so people don't submit spam on Clock Day? I just don't see Portal Mods as the way to go, but if they choose it so let it be.

I agree, If i have to wait that long for a update here i want it to be similar to some of the nglog stats that mean nothing but look cool. I still think once a week is better, i could never wait for a entire month to see how my stats have changed on this list.

But if only blams count, many people would just vote 0 on everything, and maybe even good submissions would get blammed.

At least, I think that the score that submissions get in clock day shouldn't change the batting average. Because many people could have a high BA just because they submitted something in Clock day, even if it was a shitty flash.

Well, maybe not portal mods which can decide what stays in the site and what not, but maybe something like in the Audio Portal would be useful. You know, the mods would have to approve people's first submissions. Although people may later start spamming the portal...

And what about portal bans for spammer? If someone spams too much (something like 5+ spam submissions in a row) they will get a portal ban for some time, so they can't submit anything. And if after several bans they still submit a lot of spam, they would be perma-banned.

Maybe it's not the greatest idea, but it could work :/

almost with the beginning of the year 2009, I should migrate to level 35, at which point these 6 edged Shakens will be replaced with a set of Sai. A good level that will only make me dislike a lot of other levels, or at least 36, which just seems out of place.

And yes, meat cleaver and Gauntlet is correct, just remember the T.

I'll reach Level 27 at the beginning of January actually. So.. I guess we'll both be congratulating ourselves at that time of the year?

I've just reached Level 26 :)

Congrats on reaching Level 26. I should reach Level 20 by the end of the year, possibly even by the end of the month. Anyways, my REAL goal is to hit the next B/P rank by New Year's... I gotta get back at that. I've been too slow with getting B/P thus far.

I'm sort of stuck with B/P right now; not many people ahead of me, and those who are; are up pretty high. my only changing stat is Exp...which is constant.

It's sad Tom and Wade thought people would stick to B/P with only 30 K as max. I mean, yeah, the #1 B/Per is a (insert feminine hygiene product name), Wylo and the rest are good guys and got over 100 K. That's not a bad number, all I have is a lowly 66.4 K points (66,666 B/P points isn't far away, and it's well known how much I like biblical numbers related to evil).

Well done on your level up DarkSolider, I have got that level around 13th September. The Switch Blade ,which I will sadly part with tomorrow is a lovely level very chic. Did not know I would like it so much ,will be upset to depart from this. Still i love the look of Brass Nunchunks that the right name?. In January I should think that's when I will be level 28 ,with the knife not bad, but the level i want is level 29. Not that long till i reach the 30's levels around may okay bit of a way off. My b/p bit slow not many till go. Watched a good flash by David Firth aka Doki called Dog Of Man ,if its okay i want to report some stolen stuff. Which may or not be stolen its passed, so I would like your views or not if i should report it.

Have to watch this till the end but the credits show its not got his name so I'm Don't know searching did not help okay this one I'm think may be okay.

I'm sure when they made the site, they didn't see many correctly guessing on over 30,000 submissions. Hell, I'm sure that they thought they wouldn't get more than 30,000 submissions.

But they should have seen last year, when they did the redesign, they should have bumped the levels up or made a few new ones. They knew that they had x amount of people over 30,000; they should have increased it, and it worth coming to the site to B/P for those at the top.

I disagree.
Once you have 30,000 B/P points you deserve to have the maximum level and voting power.
It isn't easy getting that far.

I hope everyone is doing well, and thanks again for the update.

Of course not, but a lot of people today, over 130 have already reached that level, and it's a little annoying to know that that's it, no matter what else you do.

Well, I'm going to throw my oar in for this part - you should have the maximum rank, but not necessarily the maximum voting power boost. There are people out there that have the equivalent of 4 Supreme Commander ranks under their belts now, so why shouldn't they get an additional small increase in their voting power to reflect that?

I showed this a few weeks back, by extrapolating a additional 5% bonus voting power for every 10,000 B/P above 30k. This meant that the top 7 - the 100k club had voting powers ranging from 14 to 16 votes. It's not that much of an increase, though it would make Wylo's life a trial for his update :P

The point of it is that users with over 30,000 B/P point have the biggest say in what gets saved and what gets deleted.
Bu the time you have 30,000 points you are going to know whats crap and what is good.

Sure, they know what they are doing but that doesn't mean they can't have just a little more influence as a motive to go on, after having 30,000 points. It would be nice to know that all that was not for nothing.

The EGB is not unfamiliar with stat whoring, and besides having the highest rank is in itself a sign of devotion, partly deriving from the human lust to be ahead, and partly from the desire to help Newgrounds.

And won't it be fun that just once the person with the highest Exp or B/P is an active NICE user of Newgrounds?

Someone's going to need to either out-EXP Pimp or out B/P Afro_Stud for that to happen. Can you say auto-voting script? Because you'd need one to beat Afro_Stud, and about a year of time too... What does he get, 120 B/P per day? I don't know him at all, but you seem to have a bad impression of him. And Pimp is probably an auto-deposit script himself.

That looks a bit suspicious, the "author" has been uploading the series in a row, so maybe he is stealing them (or maybe he made them some time ago).

Caramelldansen reborn 3 has a "stolen" review too.

That has been blammed/deleted. Probably it was stolen, it had several reviews saying he had stole it.

Probably they just thought it would get more time to get 30,000 B/P. Anyway, you have to be here for a ridiculous amount of time to reach level 60. I say "ridiculous" because not many people stay in the same website for 10 years.

Thank you also for getting that game under admin review ,it was by gamessubmission.

However i don't know if he sold him the rights to this game glad you got it in time. As for the reborn series looking at later 3 and 4 it look, like its from Deviantart.com have to Pm a admin.

But voting power is nothing really. I mean, I don't B/P or deposit for the increase in voting power; I do it for the levels. voting power increase would be nice, but I'd rather have more levels. And since I don't see too many more levels being added, VP increases would have to do.
