When the Maple Leafs undo their curse.

They're overdue and I keep lambasting my brother for being a fan of theirs.

Wow, it is almost 1000 pages, I have not been following EGB since I was gone.
Matter of fact, I am considering a possible return on 1000th page. Do not count on it though, I give it 20% of the chance that it happens.

Anyway, in relevant news, it shouldn't be too long now before I will have to pass one of the serious B/P icons of the time, gfox. I hate to do this but if I still want to move on the ranks a little before courtday kicks into pace, I have to.

Yeah he has missed some deposits, and I think (but I'm not sure at all) that he lost a deposit last month.

Oh and what happened was that the NG log couldn't connect to NG (because it was down) so all the stats went back to 0. Then you retrieve your stats again when everything is normal and you get all those stats back.
i.e. you have 1,000 exp, but you go to the NG log when there's a problem with Newgrounds, so the NG Log "thinks" you have 0 exp. But later you retrieve stats again and it's like OMG you got 1,000 experience points!!!1!1!

:D

Welcome to the Barracks! I'm the Barracks Recruitment Officer, Supreme Commander Slash Firestorm. It's my job to examine new prospective recruits and see if they've got what it takes to join the EGB.

Let me explain how the recruitment process works.

Currently you are in "Standby Status" while your case is considered. During this process, me and the other Barracks members will take a look at your record---posting quality, review history/quality, flash record, etc---and see if there are any problems.

Don't worry, we're not too strict about these things; we just want to make sure that you have a decent posting record (not too many one-liners and no flaming/spamming), don't make abusive reviews or rulebreaking flash, etc..

After a period of discussion amongst the Barracks members, I (or my superiors) will make the final call. Assuming that no objections are raised, this Standby Status should only last approximately 24 hours. I will PM you with the final verdict.

Barracks members can go to the appropriate discussion thread at our forums and vote on/discuss the prospective recruit. Remember that you must be logged in to view/vote/post there. Speak now or forever hold your peace.

Oh my.

That game was hard. I could never get past the first level.

Agreed! Also, Divine Intervention 2, which we were promised long ago :( Why do the good guys always abandon Flash...

That game was so much fun. Who knows, it could be an epic surprise 4 years in the making. I call a free-roaming game a-la GTA 1, 2 or London. But with better graphics

I don't know why people assume that since a user is so high in the rankings that they never miss deposits.

Pimp has missed plenty of deposits. I've not missed one for about 2.5 - 3 years. That's a guarantee and I can trace it back that far as well.

I can also tell you one time during the last 9 years that he has missed a deposit - when the site was redesigned. Pimp didn't deposit before the site went down at the start of the redesign and I'm not sure that it caught one when the site came back up either.

23 isn't bad in 9 years, because that's about 3,280 deposits. I've missed a sum total of 6 deposits since the 28th of April 2004. I'm happy about that.

Cool. I mean, I've been relatively faithful to my depositing over the past year compared to a lot of other Newgrounders I've known, but even over that short time frame I've missed more than that... Mostly when my computer was in the shop because XP-tan was being a whore.

Well since 3 months before the redesign, i have only missed 3 deposits due to that i want to NYC on vacation i had no one to deposit for me. And i just hit 20,000 B/P somethig on my to-do list for along time.

Hmm deposits. I've missed plenty actually since after my sign up, I left NG for about a year from lack of interest. so I missed pretty much a whole year's worth of depositing, but my overall level isn't bad.

As for deposits, I've missed many of them over the years. Maybe nearly a year's worth? I don't care much, though. It's the internet.

Plus, tomorrow I get a shiny, new level icon. =)

I didn't got to see it but I can't believe someone was so stupid to submit that! I mean, it so obvious! It was made years ago, and it's well known in Newgrounds and in other websites as well (especially on deviantART).

Good work anyway, good to see it's already flagged.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2008-11-28 20:54:02


Good work aldlv but sadly that sort of stealing is nothing new, I have seen a few well know titles stolen like Mastermind 3. So dumb makes me so angry thief's do they are so pathetic. Talking of levels If you deposited every day, you would have 17440 EXP and you would be Level 40. My deposit rating 44.15% not checked that out before. Would have been so high I would love to be level 40 ,such a lot of missed chances. Missed like two and half years worth so you can tell the difference 13 levels or so. Still level 27 good.

It's good to hear I'm not the only one; after I made my account I was active for a couple of months or so, then I lost interest. But I've regained interest about 2-4 months ago. I missed 1,266
deposits and could be on Level 35 by now. That annoys me a bit in a way but I don't mind too much since I actually wasn't on the site in that time at all.

Can't you just hear the divine bells slowly chime as I nearly regain my spot in the top 20. 21st for now, but once the long, long struggle between me and RemRulzz ends (again, since he's been on my tail for as long as I can remember the list). It won't be long now until I not only regain my previously high position of #20, but pass even more.

I actually like this ridiculous stat thing. I guess that's why this is Newgrounds, and we're Newgrounders.

Yeah, the stats are one of the most interest things in this site. Newgrounds wouldn't be the same without them, we wouldn't be the same without them...

I mean, if it wasn't for stats such as B/P, many of us wouldn't be here 24/7. It's so addictive...

It's quite amazing to see a populare flash that's already on Newgrounds to be stolen, though it's happend before, it's really silly. I'm hardly ever on when there is a stolen flash about, even when I am I'll probably have been playing a game and missed it, ahaha.

Anyway, hello one and all, I don't know what to add now umm, I've not seen much happen on Newgrounds recently.
