. . .
I guess if you want to earn some easy whistle points that is the way to do it. Hopefully it wont take me too long to get the Deity Whistle but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I don't know, I must be too lenient when flagging I usually only do the most obvious ones. I remember a thread that Wade had posted sometime ago saying the only reviews you should flag are the ones that 'scream abusive'. That's usually my only standard. From that, I'll come across two or three on average per day.

You know, I found it ironic that as soon a I bitched about still having a Bronze Whistle, it changed to a Silver one today. :)

I hope this trend ends soon otherwise we're in trouble.

Sometimes I'll wander in to the General Forum to look for people who needs help. Sometimes they don't know to post in the Wi/Ht?

That's a nice little find there Bahamut, I never knew they tried to reform the LUL, as it happened about three months after I had left. I found it kind of funny that the 'One Lounge - To Rule Them All' only lasted two days. :P

I'll probably be back tomorrow or another day for 21,000 Saves. I'm awfully close now, but I won't be on very much so I might not get the milestone today let alone tomorrow even.

I just clicked onto why you don't like Manowar at all. Joey DeMaio once said "I'm sorry, I don't listen to country music." when asked about his thoughts on Metallica. It all makes sense now.

Yup, I'm mostly OK. I dislocated my shoulder, but it's healed up again for the most part; my orthopedist is very happy with my progress there, but I myself am not, since I certainly do notice it's not like before (and that's not even counting it'll be more likely to dislocate again in the future under similar circumstances).

Hard to say. I hope not, but you never know whether there won't be any more idiots on the road not watching what they're doing...

Well, actually, it's probably pretty safe to say that there ARE many more idiots on the road not watching what they're doing, so you can't really rule out that more accidents will happen. And being careful only can do so much; short of staying at home (or at least not riding a bike), there'll always be a chance something will happen.

But I'm not concerned about it.

I wasn't wanting to keep spending my free time in the portal, so I decided to semi-retire at 70k at first, take a break and get to 100 or so points away from 77,777 to give time for any flagged entries/post-judgment blam points. A few months later, I went and finished it off.

Yeah the Jekyll and Hyde episode is pretty vague and in my opinion the worst episode. And I guess he's just taking a quick look at Simon's Quest, as there's no reason to re-review it.

As a matter of fact yes I do ;) A bunch of people have been appointed to do the job a while ago. You'll see that most, if not all, movies in the flash games and flash movies section have been tagged and put into genre categories. That was the main goal basically. Some are working on the collections now.
