Sad... but true! Good luck, man... but I'll certainly expect to see you on this list first.

Well, with the new update (crazily quick!), I'm 2044 away from the blam list (down by 218) and 1995 away from the save list (down by 169)... which isn't a great deal different. And I think F-Day had already passed by your previous update, so that won't be taken into account in the save change...

Yeah, but while F-Day was a one day spike of protects, similar to Clock Day, this entire month of December has had higher than normal save rates. Things have been tending towards 50% of the new entries being deleted instead of the usual 66 to 75%.

Christmas certainly helped, but it'd been a month long trend, really.

The thing is... once New Year's is past, things are probably going to revert to Blam City once more.

And then you really WILL be a lot further from the saves list than you are from this one (or the combined).

while I'd still back myself to reach the blam list first, the save list won't be as far behind as we might have thought.

eh... maybe split the difference between your hopeful 12/21-12/26 based liberal estimate and my pessimistic, conservative estimate. Somewhere in between, no doubt, right on Moderate Road.

Of course, the big difference is that I don't even need to double my total to reach the blam list. I nearly need to treble my total to reach the save list.

indeed. And while things aren't as bleak as that period you got like 1000 blams during the rise from 500 to 600 saves... things aren't exactly equal between your saves and your blams, are they? #;-}>

Cheers for the updates anyway!

yarrrr. Glad to be providing another source of hope for ya, aside from the top 50 combined. You'll get the trifecta at some point, I AM assured of that.

Just curious - why do you bill it as the "Unofficial" top blammers list? Is that because it's not an official list (like the top 50 combined) or because you might be missing someone who should be included? If it's the latter, it won't be too long before the #50 on the blam list has more blam points than "annoying gap" on LockClock's list has combined, then you'd know that the top 50 is absolutely correct...

Mostly because it's not in the official NG list section (you don't see links to my two lists in the left column of any of the official NG top 50 lists, do you? #;-}>).

The day that liljim decides to make official top 50 blam and top 50 save lists, if it ever comes and replaces my lists here... is the day there will finally be official lists.

So no, to answer your question, it's not that I think there's inaccuracies in it right now. There was a couple updates back when I hadn't added ORKarate when I should have back in November, but I'm convinced it's accurate for now. Thanks for letting me know that little tidbit about the blank spot on LockClock's list. The thing is, if LockClock doesn't update that list often enough, another person could sneak up onto one of these lists without me knowing it. But that's weeks, if not months, away as a possibility.

Oh, but of course, these lists ARE always slightly imprecise, if not inaccurate, due to me being a human, and taking a couple of hours to actually get all the blam and save counts from everyone's profiles. Only the official NG lists can claim to present a true snapshot at one second of everyone's stats. God bless 'em.

That's pretty impressive, seeing as how it was only a 5 day update period. Good job to both of yas.

The Unofficial Newgrounds Top 50 Blammers List -- as of 01/15/2003 at 11:21 CDT

Congrats to:

RyoHahn on his promotion to Elite Guard Supreme Commander (4th)
Recon_Rebel on his promotion to Elite Guard Major General (8th)
Bila on his promotion to Elite Guard Brigadier General (10th)
chaotic1 on his promotion to Elite Guard Lieutenant Colonel (15th)
leeboy105 on his promotion to Elite Guard Major (17th)
_altr_ on his promotion to Elite Guard Captain (23rd)
helldoll81 on her promotion to Elite Guard Captain (24th)
Majin_GeminiMan on his promotion to Elite Guard First Lieutenant (29th)
Mielipuolimieli on his promotion to Elite Guard Praporshchik (46th)
XwaynecoltX on his promotion to Elite Guard Second Lieutenant (40th)
LockClock on his promotion to Elite Guard Sergeant Major (~61st)

since the last update of the list.

List Stats:

The Top 50 Blammers currently have 465,870 blams (+14,648)
The Top 50 Blammers currently have 267,646 saves (+8,650)
The Top 50 Blammers currently have 733,516 combined b/p (+23,298)

174.06% is the Top 50 Blammers' overall blam-to-save % (-00.16%)
63.51% of the Top 50 Blammers' combined b/p are blams (-00.02%)

Welcome to:

LockClock, the successor to Dogma's 51+ list-keepin' duties, who has mananged to pop onto this list well in advance of entering the combined (or the saves list, of course). Congrats!

Farewell to:

Drimarki, to whom this was coming for a long, long time. After falling off the saves list months ago, and then the combined, this was the last step towards oblivion. Ahhh, fellow WIHT member... farewell... for now.

DANGER ZONE:

XwaynecoltX and LockClock should be fine as long as they get some blams (X has slowed a bit since he got back on this list, so I hope he doesn't decide to turn into Toocool or something #;-}>), which means that the next victim of an up-and-comer will probably be DarkJaymz. Possible suspects include Rabindarath extending his listage to all three or dl_Monk making a comeback. Drimarki had 4789 blams, though, and with LC knocking him off, everyone on the list has 5000+ blams. So it's going to start to get harder and harder to make this list.

Greg's Notes:

11 rankups this time, compared to 7 and 14 and 16 and 4 and 8 and 6 the last six times. 9 are on both lists, the other 2 are only on this list.

Mielipuolimieli was the only person on this list to make Praporshchik this update, in stark contrast to the 4 people who did so on the saves list, but he was part of the superrankup that knocked all the Sergeants off the list (completed by alhill, one of the top 50 protectors). And as I said in that list's comments, all those rankups in the past couple weeks has made it possible to fill the top 50 list with nothing but golden badges. Hopefully these two top 50s will follow, sooner or later. But for now, some Sergeants (both Master and Major) remain.

You may check out the most recent Top 50 Protectors 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 ***.

Drimarki had 4789 blams, though, and with LC knocking him off, everyone on the list has 5000+ blams. So it's going to start to get harder and harder to make this list.

You damn skippy - I actually managed to close the gap on the save list more than the gap on the blam list since the last update... a 269 reduction (to 1726) compared to 243 (to 1801)... a most interesting trend.

5000 blams. That's a lot. I don't even have 5000 combined yet :-(

Greg's Notes:

all those rankups in the past couple weeks has made it possible to fill the top 50 list with nothing but golden badges.

Didn't actually notice that - it happened a lot earlier than what you called in another thread. February? A poor effort :-)

yes... most fascinating... you're actually getting more saves than blams right now, eh? Hm. Nifty.

It happened either at the 3rd top 50 list update yesterday, or the first one today, can't remember which one featured allhill smashing open the Praporshchik treasure chest. Though he had already booted Pantherstrider off the list on the update prior to that one.

Anyway, yeah, I called Feb 2nd, Groundhog's Day. Mostly because it's the only major holiday around the time I thought it would happen.

But it turns out I should have guessed MLK Day. Ah well.

You can't blame me for being pessimistic about when all those damned Sergeant Majors were finally going to hit Praporshchik. For months and months the 7000-8000 range was filled with deadweight (and it still is, but now it's all nice and hidden in the 51+ range where we don't have to see it 3 times a day. #;-}>).

There's no way I could have predicted that Mielipuolimieli, ORKarate, Bigmanbrainy, Rabindarath, pingpong08, AND alhill were all going to get Prap this early. Some of them had the rates to do it (Mieli and pingpong didn't surprise me), but for all of them to do it quite quickly... was amazing.

Anywho, I was only off by 2 weeks and 3 days. EH!

Nope, I merely stated that I'm catching up to the save list faster than I'm catching up to the blam list. I'm still blamming quicker than saving, but everyone else is, except more so. Especially around the bottom of these lists.

The difference between my blam and save count is increasing, albeit slowly. I'm about 1750 blams ahead of saves right now, and 40 days ago (when I got the 2,902 exp/blam point screenie) it was about 1350. So over that spell, I've been getting 10 more blams than saves per day, picking up 1850 points in the process. Nearly 50 a day over more than a month. Which gives me a rough blam:save ratio of 1.5:1. Possibly a bit more.

<head explodes>

5000 blams. That's a lot. I don't even have 5000 combined yet :-(

Not long to go now. It'd be cool if I'm the 100th person with 5000 points. Could be quite close but I think I'll reach #100 before I rank up.

Coulda sworn that one of the numbers you'd posted was the actual number of... saves or blams... but nevermind, I guess it was just difference between you and #50 now that I think about it.

The difference between my blam and save count is increasing, albeit slowly.

Possibly a bit more.

Egad, an 100 extra blams compared to saves every 10 days...

Well, actually, I suppose that isn't too bad, I'm actually picking up blams at a higher rate compared to my saves than that, but the difference is that I have a much closer to 50:50 ratio to begin with.

<head explodes>

What a mess. ;_;

You may be right, and that may be because of people like toocool who only post in the protectors list on a regular basis, but...

if you're just referring to the thread size, the reason this one is only 18 pages and the other one is 31 pages is that this one started in late July and the other one started in April or May.

I was hoping to get at least 150 or 200 points during this long weekend, but I know that's not happening. It will probably take a long while before I make the saves list though since I usually get 20 or less of those each day.

Well back to blams again after another dark day NG... =/

Yea, I had that in my sig a while back. I didn't have as many saves though. I also had a sig of 1337 saves too.

Okay, I finally made it through ALL of the under judgement submissions!! I've never voted on so many movies on NG before in my whole life. I guess it's good because I'll have a lot more b/p points by tommorrow, well mostly blams. I've also never seen the under judgement section so filled up with crap before. For every one I voted to save, I gave out like 5 or 6 blams.

Well, like it says, you were #51 (or so) last update, so you just recently made it.

I did congrat you for making the list in the WELCOME section, too, yanno.

Anyway.... good luck on the combined.

You have NOTHING to worry about. You could cut your speed in half and you'd probably catch Sonic by the next update.

I love that way you have of always speaking the truth, and recomforting me lol. You are teh kewl gfox ! Hehe. Damn, with that problems of the movies not loading and shit, and movies keeping coming, I'm pretty sure I'll move on rank on the next update. FOSHO.

No problem, man.

I hate to inform you, though, that you won't get to rankup before the next update, since... as I just said in the other thread.. I'll be running one today due to me ranking up to EG General later in the day.

However, you can just pretend this one doesn't count and work on ranking up by the next update, okay? #;-}>

I'll have to make a screenie for it to change off my sig.

Good idea. It's in need of an update, isn't it...

Who did Sonic used to be?

arrows_eleven gave away his account in September/October. It's changed hands like 6 times since then. MacBeth and Josh Bedn has it for awhile, then Adric/Gambit, and now Sonic_Youth. Could be more in there.

I did congrat you for making the list in the WELCOME section, too, yanno.

Yea, I just didn't expect anything like this until I made the top 50 combined list. Well, I guess this was coming since I do get a lot more blams than saves.

Anyway.... good luck on the combined.

Thanks! I should be getting on the list hopefully by the end of the month or early February. Damn, the bottom of that list is really moving up fast, so it might take a while. I did get over 100 points yesterday because of the portal being back up though, but I think the top 50 requirement did so as well :(

My rank will probably go up a little by the next update since I got about 350 blams since this recent update, again mostly from the 150+ under judgement submissions yesterday.

it is gona be a long time befor i get on the list. but i have been flying!

I used to have it for a while.

Got it from Bedn, right?

I made that free accounts topic, I have no clue who has it now.

When I owned the account, I didn't vote or anything, so smolik, you can thank me later. :)

heh.

There ya go.

It's a very rare person who makes the combined before either of these lists.

In fact, it may be possible to show that the best you can do is hit the combined at the same time as one of these (if not both). I don't think it's very easy to hit it more than a day in advance of one of these... something I can't quite define, but it seems to be basic to how the #50 spots of all three lists work in relation to each other.

Anyway.... good luck on the combined.

Yeah, well... that's what happens when tons of active people make it all of a sudden.

I'm wondering if Scaper-X is gonna get booted. It'd be a real shame for him to end up like dl_Monk (Always going on and off the list), but it's looking like it might happen if he doesn't start moving. Jesus, I remember when he was usually even with PZY, now he's just sitting there...

Thanks. Well, if I continued at my January pace, I'd hit EGSC in late March, but I doubt I will. April or May, probably.

Well, that was directed to alex, who wanted to get an actual rank up before the next update, I wasn't referring to moving up and down spots on the list. Spots on the list = usually easier to get than actual rankups. #;-}>

That is, for everyone but the people in the top 10 combined. For us, rankups are easier than spot moves. For instance, I can't move from #6 until I hit EGSC, unless Crono retires from NG in the next week or so, or if I stop and someone passes me.

Dunno - let's suppose that there's 49 people with a million blams and saves, i.e. 2 million total. Someone else has one million blams, another person has one million saves. I could then have 600K blams and 600K saves, have 1.2 million total points for #50 combined, and not be on either of the isolated top 50 lists.

By a similar principle, it's possible to be in the top 50 of blams and saves, and not be in the top 50 combined. Suppose only 99 people have any points at all - 49 people have 3 blams, 49 people have 3 saves, and I've got 1 of each.

Dunno if this answers any questions, if indeed there are any questions at all. But it makes confusing reading at least :-)

Very interesting situations there. I didn't mean to say that it was improbably under ANY circumstances...

I meant under our current situation... where the combined has around 8000 in the 50 spot, the blammers' has around 5000 in the 50 spot, and the saviors' has around 3000 in the 50 spot.

When the 50 spots of both my lists add up to approximately the combined's 50 total, I think that's what makes it hard to get on the combined first unless you're perfectly balanced in that 5000/3000 type ratio.

The Unofficial Newgrounds Top 50 Blammers List -- as of 01/20/2004 at 22:44 CDT

Congrats to:

gfoxcook on his promotion to Elite Guard General (6th)
XkwiziTOnE on his promotion to Elite Guard Colonel (12th)
Majin_GeminiMan on his promotion to Elite Guard Captain (26th)
biteme2514 on his promotion to Elite Guard Captain (25th)
RageVI on his promotion to Elite Guard First Lieutenant (31st) &
vuorimies on his promotion to Elite Guard First Lieutenant (30th)

since the last update of the list.

List Stats:

The Top 50 Blammers currently have 472,835 blams (+6,965)
The Top 50 Blammers currently have 270,089 saves (+2,443)
The Top 50 Blammers currently have 742,924 combined b/p (+9,408)

175.07% is the Top 50 Blammers' overall blam-to-save % (+01.01%)
63.65% of the Top 50 Blammers' combined b/p are blams (+00.14%)

Welcome to:

no one

Farewell to:

no one

DANGER ZONE:

XwaynecoltX and LockClock ARE fine, as predicted. Nostrant and DarkJaymz are now down at the bottom, as they've been before. They may get booted off if Rabindarath and someone else should enter the list. No one's within a couple hundred right now (at least, who's active), though.

Greg's Notes:

6 rankups this time, compared to 11 and 7 and 14 and 16 and 4 and 8 and 6 the last six times. 6 are on both lists, the other 0 (heh) are only on this list.

In an interesting twist, ramagi seems to have asked one of the admins (or else they did it spontaneously!) to slightly alter her blams and protects. Her blams dropped 100 from 22,763 to 22,663 and her saves rose 100 from 13,237 to 13,337. I have a feeling the 13337ness was the reason. #;-}>

gfox you forgot about my promotion to Elite Guard Corporal, or is it to low to be worth it? Just wondering...

As you might notice from the title of the thread, this is the Top 50 Blammers list. At EGCp, you have a total of 2,500 combined blams and saves. The people listed here are just blams and the list starts at 5,152.

It's not that you are "beneath" notice. It's that to include people below ~4k blams entails tracking hundreds of people. When i was running the 51+ list, I had "only" 250 people in the Elite Guard whose ID info I had to manually pull up and enter into a spreadsheet every 2 to 3 days ... and that's likely more than doubled since I stopped. If gfox were to include all EG ranks, it would take hours just to gather the information for posting.
