Anyway, looks like such idle talk about our popularity numbers has been ended forever by the dumping of the pop system. It was a fun stat at times, but nowhere near as important as the other two, so I don't mind too much. :::saluting dead popularity stat, which died at #436 about 12 hours ago, after having been 496 the day before... at least I gained a bunch in the right direction on the last update after falling for a whole week of not being around on the BBS:::

Fixit... fixit is Norm's wife... Vera! We never saw her on camera in the entire run of the show.

Congrats to:
chaotic1 on his promotion to Elite Guard First Lieutenant (20th)
since the last update of the list.
Welcome to:
No one.
Farewell to:
No one.
DANGER ZONE:
FlameClock's slowed down a bit, so Herne seems secure for now.
Greg's Notes:
Well, after many many months of the same exact format (aside from the addition of the ***s to indicate being on both lists that was introduced when the second list was introduced), I've decided to try out something new. While the update above this addendum is the same as usual, there will be an additional update BELOW this post. Mostly due to lightning's mentions of wanting to know total b/p points along with the blamcount or savecount, and also because of the recent discussions of %ages.
The new format features two columns of ranks, both this update's and last update's. I thought about doing a +/- thing after the name like Dogma does, but it would mean more work for me. The way it is now, all I have to do is copy the column in excel after I reorder the list but before I manually change the numbers of those who rose/fell spots on the list, paste that right next to the actual 1-50 order and there ya go. Please note that this new column will pretty much eliminate the need for me to sum up the action on the list in this section of the addendum, but I may still cover any major highlights.
It also features, as I pretty much revealed above, the save-to-blam and blam-to-save percentages for every member of the saviors and blammers list respectively. The percentage is calculated by dividing the saves by the blams or the blams by the saves and multiplying by 100, NOT by dividing saves or blams by the total b/p. Please remember this before asking why the %s here are different than those Dogma listed a month ago. I could reformat to do it that way, but I've had it this way since I made the excel file back in March and I'd rather not change it.
On the blammers list, everyone is pretty much >100% but <1000%, so 3 digits reign. On the saviors list, however, many are <100% and thus 2 digits, many are >100% and thus 3 digits, and some... (i.e. toocool100) are 4 digits to the left of the decimal point, and thus.... the list may look a little less aligned. We'll see if it looks okay.
And finally, it features the total blams and saves of each member. I could have included the blams (on the saves list) and the saves (on the blams list), but I felt it would be redundant to the EXTREME, and also even more confusing.
So anyway, I give the peoples what they be wanting. Now it's your turn: tell me if you like the new way (Whether in actuality or in principle), and if you want to, give advice on making it look better if you feel you've noticed something no one else has. But mostly:
PLEASE VOTE whether you want it to stay the way it always has been or change to this new (more informative but busier-looking) format. THANK YOU!
You may check out the most recent Top 50 Blammers List by clicking the link I just posted. Enjoy comparing the lists to each other and to the Top 50 Combined B/P List. People on both the Top 50 Blammers List and the Top 50 Protectors List are denoted with ***.

Well i already posted about this new format - i said in the Blams list and i will post it here - i like it and it as informative as always......you da man FOX!
I like that new way much ... but I'm just a little bit confused about the save-to-blam/blam-to-save thing ... I mean ... is a 100% save-to-blam mean a 10/10 ratio? Uh ... in fact it would be pretty logical ... damn ... sometimes I'm pretty dumb ...
3 spots higher go me! =) that's why i like the new format with the old one you need to check the old one and that takes too long
Every once in very great while comes a ridiculously funny thread. So funny in fact i must put it into my sig http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic /1049194/1

okay, based on the positive responses to the new format, I've cropped the list to the top 10 from the last update, and changed it to three different formats that should improve readability a bit. I'm doing this in both top 50 topics, BTW. Please vote on whether you like the top, middle, or bottom one best (top has boldface, as recommended by biteme, middle has --s in a couple of good places, and bottom has both):

6 votes total (Xkwizit, Mystboy, lightning, leeboy, Captain_Bob, biteme), and every single one says yes... so a nice unarguable 100% vote for the new way.
I would have liked to hear what some other people said, like Recon and Dogma for instance, but they still have a chance to look at the three new ways the list could appear each update, so... get out there and vote, people!
Anyway, I think you got the hang of it there, Mystboy. save-to-blam % is saves/blams x 100... blam-to-save % is blams/saves x 100. I just like the results it gives better than saves/total x 100 or blams/total x 100, as the dramatic difference in people like toocool's stats are made clear.
If you divided toocool's saves by his total points and turned it into a percentage, you'd just have 99.85% or something. But when you do it saves divided by blams, you get a very impressive 7000.00% or whatever it is exactly. #;-}>
and lastly, I'm glad to hear you like the "this update/last update" rank columns, lightning.

Nope. All three are different attempts to make it more "user-friendly" for those simply trying to scan the lists. The first uses bold font to aoffset some data, making it more differentiable more the rest. The second uses occasional insertions of -- to try and break it up, while the third is a combination of both. Life would be soooo much easier if we could use <tr>, <th>, and <td> ... although it would likely turn my updates into 8 or 12 posts lol
hey lightning, did you really mean change your E-MAIL to tricktheclown? What difference does that make on NG? I'm assuming you meant to say change your NG USERNAME to tricktheclown. If you did... PLEASE DON'T. God, that would be horrible.
Everyone knows you as lightning, and presumably you like the name or you never would have chosen it in the first place and made several sigpicss and profile pics with it... so... why change now? Eh.

Thanks for answering alex there, I was about to post to him when I noticed you'd already summed up the differences (though I had already, actually.... heh...). I was gonna do this to emphasize the point of the three choices, so I might as well anyway in case your explanation still didn't work:
A) blahblahblah blahblah! blah blah BLAH!
B) blahblahblah -- blahblah! -- blah blah BLAH!
C) blahblahblah -- blahblah! -- blah blah BLAH!
Now do you see the differences, alex? #;-}>
Anywho:
Once again, six people (Mystboy, alexsmolik, toocool, leeboy, biteme, Dogma) have all voted the same way! Heh. Third choice wins, hands down, unless 7 people come along in the next day or so wanting the first or second choice, and I doubt that very muchly.
I'll be making the next update quite soon, I wanted to hit 9000/8000 (17000 total) perfectly, but I'm gonna miss it by a bit, probably, but I'll fudge my profile and my stats on the lists a bit up and a bit down to fit. #;-}> When I get to 17000, I shall update and ye shall all see the new format! Woot.
till then...

Everyone knows you as lightning, and presumably you like the name or you never would have chosen it in the first place and made several sigpicss and profile pics with it... so... why change now? Eh.
lol i don't what too change my name just my mail my ng name is fine =) sorry for not being clear... again. but any way trickytheclow was just a (stupid) idea. i suck at thinking of names so ideas would be great the the one thinks of the new mail will get a cookie =)
Well fixit finally joined the 10K group for saves. I don't think anyone else will make it before Oct 14th. That was the first day saves were possible to get.

The top one is much easier to read gfox. I vote for the first format. Something tells me I'm too late on this.

Blah, blah BLAH! I knew I was too late (not that it matters). I still like the first list so there.

I've kinda decided to go with an "in between" option which will feature all the boldface of the first option, but less --iness. You'll see. More comments at that point are welcome, but at this point it's grown from 0-0-6 to 1-0-7, so yeah, it is a bit too late. #;-}> Update due tonight, I would have done it early this morning, but well... as we all know, NG was dead.

The Unofficial Newgrounds Top 50 Protectors List -- as of 09/26/2003 at 20:20 CDT
Congrats to:
Recon_Rebel on his promotion to Elite Guard Lieutenant Colonel (10th) &
RageVI on his promotion to Elite Guard Second Lieutenant (28th)
since the last update of the list.
Welcome to:
No one.
Farewell to:
No one.
DANGER ZONE:
Herne had a 2 save lead on Flame Clock (alias Emperor Pilaf) as of the stat check. He'll be off the list he made a month ago if he doesn't shape up.
Greg's Notes:
New format is here, and here to stay, but it doesn't have to stay THIS way. If you have major problems with it, let me know. Otherwise, I will continue to retool it. Keep in mind that I'm not trying only to make it aesthetically pleasing, but also easy for me to update from my excel file. As it is now, it's easy. Too much column alignment would add time to my updates and thus make them happen less often.
REMARKABLE few days for the list. It's been 4 days since the update (and there's been plenty of times when it was only 2 days or 3 days between updates, and this has NEVER happened before):
ONLY THREE PEOPLE ON THE LIST MOVED.
Well, okay, 6 people moved, but only 3 people on the list PASSED other people. Since there's so few, I'll note them this time:
GridLock passed Captain Bob
Denvish passed agent66 (who is inactive)
YoinK passed Mike277 (who is inactive)
IOW, only one REAL competitive passing occurred this week on the top 50 saves. This means at least one (and probably both) of two things: Either we're all not getting many saves (Duh! #;-}>) or we're all holding relatively steady in our upwards motion, so as not to be passing people very often.
I don't expect this to continue for too long, though. After all, saves have been scarce since June but this has never happened before, even during the July 24th, 26th, and 28th updates, which were all 2 days apart.
More likely than not, this is more about the 3 major server issues in the past few days that have kept people from voting for approximately 18 hours out of the past week.
You may check out the most recent Top 50 Blammers List by clicking the link I just posted. Enjoy comparing the lists to each other and to the Top 50 Combined B/P List. People on both the Top 50 Blammers List and the Top 50 Protectors List are denoted with ***.
List Column Legend
rank = this update's rank

saves = approximate # of protects as of the update time
s2b% = save-to-blam % (i.e. ratio of saves to blams, or: saves/blams x 100)
b/p = approximate combined blam and protect points as of the update time
*** = on both the top 50 protectors and top 50 blammers lists

Ah yes, that's much more like it.
Nothing like sweet sweet 0's to fix everything.
So anywho, what does everyone think, already? I know I'm being impatient, and that the BBS was down, but there's been at least 1.5 hours during which Wi/Ht was readable and postable, but after I'd posted the lists, in which no one's said a peep about them! I want feedback, damnit! :::pouts::: #;-}>
Personally, I think they look freakin' kick-ass. The boldface helps a lot, the extra data isn't as "bad" as I had always thought it would be (and thus hadn't introduced before now).
My only criticisms are how digit differences misalign the list. Aside from my accident omission of the 0's on the other list for 1-9, all the other misalignments were intention, but... while on the old list the only thing that misaligned anything were the people with greater than 10,000 blams or saves, now in addition to that there's:
the %
the total b/p
I'm thinking that in future updates, I may enforce a xxx.xx% on the % (well, actually, a xxxx.xx% on the % on the protectors list, because of toocool, but one less on the blammers list since no one has a 1000.00% or greater blam-to-save ratio, thank goodness)...
and I may enforce a xx,xxx on the b/p
I think the %s wouldn't look so bad with an enforced digit amount, but I'm not so sure a vast majority of b/p counts being 09,000 or 05,555 or whatever is going to look so hot. Thoughts? I can always give it a spin, assuming I can get excel to agree to do that (and I seem to remember doing it years ago), on the next update and see what people think at that point. I might be updating around the 1st of the month if I'm itching to try this, otherwise, by next weekend at the very latest.

Well, apart from the obvious absence of me, the lists look great - seems a lot more informative, although I think the percentages would look better if you list them as a percentage, not as a ratio (ie. I'd have a 69% blam rate, and not a 227% rate if I've done my sums right on the second figure).

Lists do look good, I have to admit.

If it makes it look better, do it.

Yeah, it's easy enough to get excel to put leading zeroes in. I just forget how to do it :-)
