Not all that sad when the rank he's dropping is SAVE rank, though. MPA was never much of a saviour. ;_;
I would call Toocool100 the Save King, If anyone deserves that title I belive it would be him, he's had the most saves for some time now plus the percentage thing going for him.
King schming, he's the freakin' SAVE EMPEROR. The man is teh RULE.
Exactly because of that. Not the most saves part. You and I have had that at certain times. No, what sets Toocool apart from the rest of the site is:
A) his save to blam %
B) first and so far only person to EGSC on saves alone (well, 29908 or whatever, but close enough!)
C) first and so far only person with 30k+ saves
I know B and C are similar, but I consider them separate achievements, since someone with 60,000 blams and 30,000 saves just doesn't have the same thing going for them as Toocool does.. but anywho.
I wonder if this makes me some sort of Save Queen, now that is ironic.
Well of course. In fact, I'd wager I've called you that in the past. You, and most of the site, just always thought of yourself as the Blam Queen first and foremost, so you probably never gave it much thought. #;-}>

Yesh. It becomes better.
I see.
Makes me kinda sad. I held a spot in the top 3 of the saviors list for many a year. Those days are over. ;_;
You might just be sad to see those days end but I know if I was ever in a position like the top 3 saviors, and I had to watch myself get pushed out over time. I'd go crazy.
Well, the days lasted even beyond my retirement, and how long I held that bronze spot after I hung 'em up back on 10/10/05... is quite impressive, IMO. It bespeaks the kinda lead me, ramagi, and Toocool had on everyone else back a year or two ago. We were teh trio of saviours when the rest of the site thought only blammin' was cool.
But anywho. Being #1 was great, being #2 was great, being #3 was great, being in the top 10 will have to suffice for awhile.
This might seem out of the blue but why did you retire anyway?

That topic's more about the reason for the numbers I chose to retire at than the retirement itself, but somewhere in that handful of pages, I believe I made 2 or 3 posts about my motivations as well.
Why does anyone retire, man? Rest, first and foremost.
Thanks for carrying the torch, major punk. :::salutes:::
Haha, no problem.
Well, it's just that the blam list got revived and you took up the save list, which I started first of all, and always had a warm spot in my heart. It gladdens it so to see it going again. #;-}>
I enjoy these Wi/Ht? lists and stat threads alot, making them too (sometimes). Even if I have to do it all manually.
I heard that! I miss the NG Lister days. Oh, such ease... such time-savery goodness.
