ahh didn't know that.

In all fairness, I probably only made a statement about red strikethrough text users just once on the site and that was the first post-2012 redesign EXP update. What I have thought of doing a few times is writing a FAQ for the site to cover both EXP and hexalist updates. Would be nice to give information to the more recent viewers on that site. Well, however many new visitors I even get on my site for update needs nowadays.

Indeed it does. I did spend an hour cropping all the level icons and putting them all in aura backgrounds. Granted, some of them have been updated since but I'll take care of them sometime before the update. Hopefully we can be successful with having holiday special level icons (providing they do it) for December. The 2010/11 holiday icons always had bad timing for them as they weren't up until after the last EXP update of those years were posted.

You don't sound that far off from the top 150.

Still got a little way to go yet Bahamut.

Well I have just passed the Top 160 mark (currently 159) but I just had a quick browse again of list update #55 and if peoples deposit rates remain where they currently are it will still take another 3 to 4 months to hit the Top 150. Most annoying since if I had not taken a 2 year or so sabbatical from NG I could be Level 57 and somewhere around 33 or 34 on the Top Exp list. Disappointing!

EXP Update #56 (Spooky Scary Edition) is now available!

Hello all and welcome to the 56th EXP update. The NG staff have introduced Halloween icons for the 2012 redesign and unlike the last two years, there is more than enough time to use special icons for an update. Hopefully they give the holiday level icons the same amount of time providing they will go ahead with that plan as well.

NEXT UPDATE: 11th November 2012

We'll give you two months and hopefully you'll be with us then and just in time before 2012 ends. Depending how it's going to work with the uploads of the holiday icons (if any), I might want to make a final 2012 EXP update on the last Sunday of the year. That would actually be nice to do every year for a better display on how users have been from the end of last year through the current one.

Amazingly enough, that's legit... Well, somewhat. Like Coop, it was just deposit recovery so tigerkitty and DHT got a crazy boost of +390 this time.

Another two ranks up. Can't complain. In other news I'm going to level up somewhere next week to level 51. It seems like ages ago since I got to level 50. I would've had the awesome Master Sword icon in the old system. It's a shame I had to miss out on it, but at least I got greasemonkey so I can pretend :p

I'm really not happy with this deposit recovery thing going on. I can't blame anyone for trying, but I can blame the admins for doing it. What's the point in trying to deposit every day (and even setting the alarm clock on the day of the redesign) if I can just ask Tom to give me my deposits back? I should ask him to recover my last missed deposit. And while he's at it, why not recover the 2 years I already missed? This is some serious bullshit and realy contradicts the "only 10 Exp per day" rule. Right now, I'm feeling like stopping to deposit altogether...

Thanks for the update, Bahamut. Looks nice.

I'd much rather have the visage of the reaper, than this shitty bowling ball of a pumpkin, carved with angry faic. Oh well, not far from that now...

Still, closing the gap on ORKarate (130 points) and iWalker (280 Points), with Ineritus a mere 2 deposits ahead of me. Dopefish being inactive at 670 points ahead is starting to hove into view, but I'll focus on the top 90 (I hope) before that point.

Happy Hallowe'en

Oh, don't be like that now. At least your icon actually had a noticible change.

I just didn't realise that pumpkins were being grown by Spalding now, that's all...

EXP Update #57 is now available!

Hello all and welcome to the 57th EXP update. No more spookiness here and I was late-ish for this update due to having a party last night. I crashed for the night so no time to even sort this out until I got back home all the way from Liverpool. Worth it, though.

No rank ups this time, that's quite unusual. Though I am slowly starting to enter the regions where rank ups are more of a rarity than a regularity.

Hmm well you must be something right then. After a night of partying hard (for my standards) I always get this feeling that it was NOT worth it in the end.

Thanks for the update, Bahamut. Nice, as always.

I've made 1 more position and so thanks must be given to ORKarate, who has now joined the legions of Cooped accounts.

Looking ahead, Inertius and FIGMENTUM continue to frustrate me, with their depositing, but I remain confident that I will cstch them, at some stage. That said, Dopefish and iWalker will probably fall first, which suits me fine as after them, I'll be top 90, so all good.

Maybe because I was able to have some jokes throughout the night and into the morning. That saying, I've got another party today that my friend is actually wanting to start as early as 2:30PM (10 minutes time as I'm typing this) but I'll get there a bit later.

Not likely. Just because the thread title from 2005 states it's top 2,000 doesn't mean it's like that now. I count all users who are at least 8k EXP, although there's a wonder if it should eventually be raised to 9k EXP due to heavy load on the size of the updates.

I used to like stopping alts at a certain level because of the level icons but with the redesign changing it all around entirely and the chances of them changing it again whenever it comes to another layout change, I wonder if it's even worse stopping them for level icons now. My new plan is to simply stop them at big milestones.

EXP Update #58 is now available!

Hello all and welcome to the 58th EXP update. This is the last EXP update for 2012 (or maybe forever if 21st December takes us all but I know jack shit will happen). The EXP updates end on a high note for 2012 for me as only today I reached level 53 and not had to wait another four weeks just to see my level update so the odds were in my favour this time.

On a more general note, Wylo deserves a mention for being the first mod to reach the final level. According to Wade regarding the 2007 redesign, there was a special level icon for mods who reached level 60 but whatever that was we'll never find out now that level 60 is more generic than the special global icon (which sadly wasn't liked that much).

I hadn't actually noticed that there weren't any level 60 mods yet, I would have figured there would have been at least one. Big congrats to him, anyway.

How about the level 60 icon holding the level 57 ban hammer instead of the spear/short sword thing? :P

Thanks for the update, Bahamut. Lovely work, as always.

Looks like I'm on the cusp of 90th place, as I'm within 7 deposits of iWalker and 18 of dopefish. Since I closed the gap to both of these by more than that this time around, I should be able to Coop both of them within the next 4 weeks.

Conversely, it looks as if Inertius has started hitting deposits with regularity again, so he remains 20 points ahead of me. Lovely.

Zero ranks gained this round and sadly most of the users directly above me deposit their experience frequently. There's still a chance I'll pass nothere before the year closes though, if he keeps going at this rate. We'll see.

A gain of 2 for the month is good at this stage. I'm starting to get into that zone where everyone above me is voting 250 to 280 a month so it's hard to catch them now. I don't think I'll gain any spots next month and probably only 2 spots the following month. Cracking into the Top 150 is still some time away unfortunately.
