If it hadn't been for FlameClock speeding onto the list, and if I'd taken the stats just a bit later, you might have passed Spancker yourself to enter today's update at #50. :::shrugs:::

Speaking of FlameClock, you may as well disregard the addendum from my e-mail. The flashes in question got deleted, but he didn't, so I presume he just got a nasty note to "fly right" from Wade.

Who's "us three"? Me, Recon and...?

Anyway, we'll see about that... we'll see.

:::takes down a few notes regarding getting more blams for awhile and sabotaging Dogma somehow:::

GridLock, at least until he changes his name again.

Anyway, here's the numbers actually worked out rather than just the "guess-at-a-glance" I was doing.

Over the next few weeks, presuming paces remain consistent, things should look like this

5 September:
9 9100 Grid
10 8425 Recon
11 8050 gfox
13 7500 D0GMA

12 September:
9 9425 Grid
10 8625 Recon
11 8300 gfox
12 7825 D0GMA

19 September:
9 9775 Grid
10 8825 Recon
11 8550 gfox
12 8150 D0GMA

26 September:
9 10100 Grid
10 9025 Recon
11 8800 gfox
12 8500 D0GMA

Just one problem. Where are you getting your "presumed paces" from, anyhow? As I just complained an hour ago in your topic, I was away from any computer for 56 hours over the weekend, and that deeply hurt my perday average for the week. If you based my blams per day on this past week, then you based wrong.

Grid recently expressed a "fuck it!" remark about blamming and saving that made it look like he was gonna quit poxpower-style. Remember? The whole Joe vs. him thing in your thread, I believe?

So I think you've overestimated his blams and underestimated mine.

Unless I get offered a job within the next week, those blam amounts are too low for me. 250 per week? Blah, way more than that. :::nods:::

Holy crap. I was a lot closer than I thought I was. I thought for sure that I would've dropped a few hundred spots while I was away on vacation but I guess not. But wait, if I'm #52 now, and (assuming that) I dropped a little on my vacation, was I actually on the Top 50 Blammers List at one point? Just curious.

I took it over the past 2 weeks. I presumed that would, over the course of the next month, give a reasonably accurate estimate of the variable times we'll all have available here.

Yes. I had nothing to add to the converstaion so I simply stayed out of it. I'll believe he's given up on it when he starts getting 5/day average. Only time will tell =)

Entirely possible.

Could be. I thought I was running 500/week, but with the down time I had this weekend, I dropped to 325 over the two weeks I considered. Maybe I am underestimating me too lol

Good thought, but no. courtday, dl_Monk, FlameClock, and spancker all recently made the list. You've been closing the gap and passing people in the process, but the speedies overtaking you had been minimizing your gains so that you never quite made it on. Xwayne might be the better target to aim for if you are trying to get on. He's been relatively inactive and so is less of a "moving target" to be chasing after.

hey i'm higher on the list and i tought i would be lower on the list right now =)

Well, if I get busy or something, then it might. But like I said, 56 hours. That's probably about 200 blams I missed out on... 2 weeks is better than 1 week, but I'd guess the avg. shoulda been more like 350 blams per week than the 250 you credited me with. #;-}>

True, true. I'm more concerned, however, with getting MY average up to 100/day for just one freakin' week. It's been so long since I've maintained that rate for longer than 2-3 days.

The world of NG's Graveyard is an oft-neglected bit of real estate hereabouts.

I think a lot of people who leave reviews on blammed flash never check back to see what other people might have said to the author (or to them!). I often interact with other reviewers, especially if I think they're blamming it for the wrong fucking reason, or I think it should be protected.

and I often save noteable graveyard flash pages to my hard drive... say, if there's some funny reviews, or 20 people bashing the poor author... things like that. #;-}>

That's a good question...

Hmmmmmmm... Pretty much everything except for terrorist manuals and kiddie porn. Everything else goes straight to the hard drive. :::nods:::

But on a regular basis...

I save profile screenshots, I save top 50 lists on every update of them (when I can), meaning 5 per day usually (3 top 50 b/p, 1 top 50 exp, 1 top 50 popularity),

I save screenshots of blams and savior screens (i.e. final vote moments),

I save postcount landmark screenshots (like the 2700 I'm about to hit),

I save funny flashes that are getting blammed if they're worth watching again or as a kinda testament to the horrible shittiness of some flash...

I save shortcuts to good threads on the BBS.

I save profile shortcuts for use in my top 50 lists and so forth...

I save the text file I keep all of my blam/save/exp/ranks info in, the txt is open all the time when I'm on the portal...

and I think that about covers most of what I save from NG on a regular basis.

I save sports game recaps from sportsline.com, too. And some news articles. That's mostly it from the rest of the net.

beh! I end up staying away from the BBS for 48 hours, and the top 50 blams list falls off the front page, with the top 50 protects nearly joining it?! An outrage! OUTRAGE I TELL YOU.

Ahem... anyway.

I haven't slept all night, and I missed a ton of points yesterday while sleeping all day. Lieutenant Colonel's gonna take me a bit longer than I thought to get to, but I DID pass 8000 blams, and am thus approaching Recon.

:::nods:::

Don't make any more approximations, though, Dogma. My tired brain will just fry trying to decide if they're too high or too low. I'd rather we just all pass each other when we pass each other, and let time take its course.

:::passes out, comes to, and resumes BBSing:::

Just felt like bumping this up to the top again. Probably should say something useful so I don't get banned for bumping threads lol

Erm, let's see, oh, 7500 blams and 13th now =)

Hopefully that's on-topic enough lol

Okay, apparently someone organised a boycott of this topic. I'll let it die after this last reply (well, except that I'm ranking up later today, and I'll probably do an update on both lists either then or tomorrow, but heh... aside from that. I guess when I complained about how sometimes the pages in my topics flip too fast and bury the actual lists, I got what I said I wanted... a perfect medium would be just enough posting to keep this on the front page, but not enough to overwhelm the lists... eh... you can't ever get QUITE what you want #;-}>)

8061 right now, on 2 September, and I'll definitely be hitting 8100 today (going for a 8100/7400 split to hit the 15500 for LtCol). I'm guessing it'll be more like 8200 by 5 September... (oh, and BTW, you're at 7501 right now, so... methinks you did underestimate yourself as well with these estimates)

12 September:
9 9425 Grid
10 8625 Recon
11 8300 gfox
12 7825 D0GMA

More like 8500-8600

19 September:
9 9775 Grid
10 8825 Recon
11 8550 gfox
12 8150 D0GMA

26 September:
9 10100 Grid
10 9025 Recon
11 8800 gfox
12 8500 D0GMA

And more like 9300-9400 by then.

Then again, GridLock doesn't seem to be destined for the 10,000 blam mark, even if his account is... and Recon may pick up the pace or slow down.

But yes, I know... I still need to look back over my shoulder for ya. #;-}> You'll probably be at 9000 by that last date.

Oh well, it doesn't matter. I'm making it a goal of mine to get on that list soon. You can count on seeing me up there in a few days.

Well, you'll probably be on the list in a week, but since I'm updating it right now, I'm afraid your presence won't be noted in a couple days when you estimate you'll actually be #50.

D0GMA on his promotion to Elite Guard First Lieutenant (17th)
Bila on his promotion to Elite Guard Major (12th)
courtday on his promotion to Elite Guard Sergeant Major (46th) &
vuorimies on his promotion to Elite Guard Second Lieutenant (25th)

since the last update of the list.

Welcome to:

No one.

Farewell to:

No one.

DANGER ZONE:

XwaynecoltX falls into #50 due to FlameClock's upward mobility. He's likely to get taken out by one of the lurkers laying in wait just off the list. Those include the recently departed Spancker, should he return, biteme, whose entrance to this list would seal a double list holdin' title (triple if you count the official top 50), and a few other possibles. More likely to fall than the #50 on the saves list is, that's for sure.

Greg's Notes:

Neat note of the day: alexsmolik managed to move up from 5148 blams and 6137 saves last update to 5184 blams and 6173 saves. If you don't see what I mean, the last two digits of both his blams and saves flipped, while the rest of the numbers stayed the same. Wheeeee!

TheJoe, believe it or not, is moving fast towards ramagi's blam count. He has no hope of catching her on the saves list (though fixit does), but he can get her here. I'll be waiting, anticipatin'...

While I only gained some ground on Recon, D0GMA whipped past Bila for #13 and is hot on DrMSM's butt (oh my!)

courtday actually lept over a ton of people (just like on the top 50 combined), getting up to #25

Syme was moving too, but she was one of the people courtday passed. She's up to #26

stafffighter was one of the ones hit by courtday, and didn't pass anyone himself, so he fell to #29. I mention him, also, because he moved up 1 on the combined since last time, but would have moved up 2 (and had, as of 24 hours ago), but AdrenalineMJ managed to retake 28 (which he'd lost to stafffighter, ya see). AdrenalineMJ is quite the story. aka lordfril, he has been relatively quiet, staying in the lower range of the 8000s, in Praporshchik, for some time now. He fell off the saves list months ago, but is now threatening to retake a place on it, and is doing well here, as he got about 300 total points, mostly blams, but a fair number of saves as well. Excellent job, I must say. If he keeps it up, he'll not only get back on the saves list, but get to Second Lieutenant finally (a feat that took forever for vuorimies as well! #;-}>)

Nostrant moved past b33r53x up to #34

leeboy105 jumped RageVI and Hice for lucky #36

lightning got out of the 40s by passing DarkStirFry for #39

and as mentioned, FlameClock moved up to 47, pushing the bottom of the list further down

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 ***.

Yeah, that happens a lot to me. When I vote for a whole day, and then, when I change my BBS signature by updating the number of B and S points, I often get that neat little "number switching".
