FINAL LIST UPDATENESS!
Ohh, this bit I overlooked. I was expecting the update to come last weekend, but it didn't. Oh well, around St. Patrick's Day is good. :)

Your second-choice wish... was my command.

UPDATE....?

UPDATE*D*

Past tense, baby.

Slow and steady, just as we keep telling some of the faster (and more wayward) bowlers to work at practice :P

They be like teh wild fastball pitchers, eh? All speeds and no controls.

Yeah, but when I crossed 30k, I had some ambitions, mostly for my saverank, and I didn't see any reason to stop b/ping.
Okay, fair point

YEAH! I once had a b/pdrive, damnit.... :::grumbles and waves cane around in an agitated manner:::

At a certain point from 30k to 60k, I clearly got tired of it, and retired for 1.5 years until the lure of 36k saves sucked me in.
You're back, just in the form of a shadow of your former self. I'm capable of averaging 50/day, which is more than at any point before I reached Supreme Commander :P My year-on-year B/P pace continues to grow, so long as I can find methods to increase my output :P

If your pace will grow without end... then you'll be even more robotic than fixit, so.... be careful what you wish for. O_O

Plus, I'm me and you are you. But if you were me, then I'd be you! And I'd use your body to get to the top! You can't stop me no matter who you are!

Ah yes, but... um.... what if you become me? (GASP)

And all I'm saying is that no one can foresee their own future mental state.
There is a fine line between genius and insane. I cross it frequently :P

Exactly.

It's not - I linked it for your viewing pleasure :P
Oh, I didn't notice teh link because I was reading your post while quote/replying, as I often do.
-.- Still at least I now know that I'll have to write <link>before everything, so that the quoting people can read it :P

You could always just... oh, I dunno, post http:// or www. -started links instead of hyperlinking regular text, so it would kinda be apparent there was a link there in the quoted material. #;-}>

Coop's list #9
Happy Easter, folks. Rather than walk around the garden looking for easter eggs (I did the shopping this year, so I know eggsactly where they are, for a change), I've decided to go hunting for stats. The pull was done in about an hour last night.

We've gained two new members this month. Say hello to Haggard and Nomader.

Of course, this means that we've lost two members from the list. Shock of shocks, we have now raised the response rate bar. jonthompson has taken his 3 figure response rate off the list and thus we are all 10% or more across the board. R3dF0x has... ahem... mysteriously dissapeared off the list.

No movement between the top 50 and 51-100, so on with the ceremony!

Moving on up this month. Over the next month, I'm hoping to get mysefl on track with some big gains and past 4 individuals. That's going to be my last such large gain month, as there are so few people left to pass.

Nice and spiffy. Thanks for the update, oh heir to the RRR legacy (cousin to the LLL legacy heir, Bahamut?)!

We've gained two new members this month. Say hello to Haggard and Nomader.

Hurray! Congrats, you two... so that means...

Of course, this means that we've lost two members from the list. Shock of shocks, we have now raised the response rate bar. jonthompson

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOooooooo (gasp).... nooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooo............

has taken his 3 figure response rate off the list and thus we are all 10% or more across the board.

;_;

I think he used to have a 10%+ rate, BTW.... back in the olden RRR days of yore.

R3dF0x has... ahem... mysteriously dissapeared off the list.

Well, only 18 responses on 46 reviews isn't really all that much. So... yeah, no biggie there. #;-}> (wink)

Didn't I say I was gonna get booted down sooner or later and you were telling me that wasn't necessary the case and all that claptrap?

Looks to me like Darkside's gonna take me out back o' the bar and give me a sound beating in the alley of rank-swaps... quite soon indeed. #;-}>

Only the really really bad pitchers do. And any pitch that hits the dirt is never going to bounce into hittable territory, so that's basically as automatically a gimme/no-brainer of a Ball-not-Strike any ballplayer is ever going to be gifted with.

In fact, while I'm not sure of the rule on it (and I'm sure there is one), should the ball actually bounce into the strike zone, I'd put money on it that the ump, by rule, not prerogative.... is gonna call ball anyway, unless the batter is an idiot and swings.

If your pace will grow without end... then you'll be even more robotic than fixit, so.... be careful what you wish for. O_O

Okay, fixit jr. #;-}>

There's ONE award, just by virtue of name alone, that almost anyone would be happier to slide by with a silver or bronze on... rather than have the sole claim to gold. HOW AWKWARD.

Hello to Haggard and Nomader. Those two have easily made it to this list thanks to me! 8)

Milestones

Congrats to you, Cyberdevil and Dew on response milestones. :)

The List:
Rank) Responses || Gain || Response Rate | Username
008) 0683 || + 01 || 14.84% RyanAn
009) 0679 || + 08 || 26.44% Bezman
010) 0674 || + 25 || 55.52% Bahamut

Interesting. Thanks to Afro_Stud responding to some of my older reviews, I easily got over 666 responses and hopefully I'll have 700 responses on the next update! :D By then, I should pass RyanAn and Bezman. :O

Good, in the top 5 again. Not at the top, though, but one day, it could happen if Afro_Stud did a MAJOR CATCH-UP on ALL OF HIS FLASHES!

Well, that's me done on this list for another month. I hope that you all get sick on your chocolate, kiddies! >:)

I won't. :P

Happy Easter, folks. Rather than walk around the garden looking for easter eggs (I did the shopping this year, so I know eggsactly where they are, for a change), I've decided to go hunting for stats. The pull was done in about an hour last night.
Nice and spiffy. Thanks for the update, oh heir to the RRR legacy (cousin to the LLL legacy heir, Bahamut?)!

Excuse me for sounding dense, but what does RRR stand for? (And LLL for that matter)

We've gained two new members this month. Say hello to Haggard and Nomader.
Hurray! Congrats, you two... so that means...

Of course, this means that we've lost two members from the list. Shock of shocks, we have now raised the response rate bar. jonthompson has taken his 3 figure response rate off the list and thus we are all 10% or more across the board.
;_;

I think he used to have a 10%+ rate, BTW.... back in the olden RRR days of yore.

I've never seen him with a 10%, but this is since I've been following the list (About 18 Months ago, I think I got started with that craze :)

R3dF0x has... ahem... mysteriously dissapeared off the list.
Well, only 18 responses on 46 reviews isn't really all that much. So... yeah, no biggie there. #;-}>

(wink)

Sounds suspicious there...

048) 0259 || + 00 || 38.89% gfoxcook
049) 0249 || + 07 || 17.15% Darkside7000 1
050) 0244 || + 01 || 41.71% f0d -1
Didn't I say I was gonna get booted down sooner or later and you were telling me that wasn't necessary the case and all that claptrap?

Looks to me like Darkside's gonna take me out back o' the bar and give me a sound beating in the alley of rank-swaps... quite soon indeed. #;-}>

His response gain is erratic. He didn't get any last month, remember.

They be like teh wild fastball pitchers, eh? All speeds and no controls.
I've got the advantage that the bowlers speed is decresed by the ball bouncing off the floor (mostly). Pitchers offer no such luxury, as far as I am aware :P They will learn control, even if it does mean that they spend most of the training sessions bowling the balls into the nets at the side of me.
Only the really really bad pitchers do. And any pitch that hits the dirt is never going to bounce into hittable territory, so that's basically as automatically a gimme/no-brainer of a Ball-not-Strike any ballplayer is ever going to be gifted with.

Yeah, but if the ball bounces before being hit in cricket, you can still be out. My shot that I'm making the most of at the moment is the flick down the leg side (behind me, as I stand facing the bowler), as most shots for a batsman of my skill level are either straight down the ground, usually over the bowler's head; or to the off side (in front of me, 90 degrees from the angle the ball was bowled)

In fact, while I'm not sure of the rule on it (and I'm sure there is one), should the ball actually bounce into the strike zone, I'd put money on it that the ump, by rule, not prerogative.... is gonna call ball anyway, unless the batter is an idiot and swings.

If the ball bounces, it's going to be a ball, but if the batter swings, he can be called for a strike. I wonder if anyone has homered off such a ball?

If your pace will grow without end... then you'll be even more robotic than fixit, so.... be careful what you wish for. O_O
Does Not Compute.... I mean that's not a feasable hypothesis, surely.
Okay, fixit jr. #;-}>

Nah, it's going to slow down for the moment, as work are being bitches and are stopping us all from using the computers at work for 'non-work related tasks' Sadly, this includes my territory of breaks and pre / post work activities.

I shall become quite petty over the next few weeks, taking breaks in place of all of my colleagues' communal cigarette breaks.

Moving on up this month. Over the next month, I'm hoping to get mysefl on track with some big gains and past 4 individuals. That's going to be my last such large gain month, as there are so few people left to pass.
You're amazing, you with your strategic response-gathering and all. #;-}>

Practice :P

There's always someone to beat me on this thing! I'll have to find more sources of responses and blow the competition away in April!
What, you'd prefer to WIN the KWAS award? Come on, now. #;-}>

Top of the tree for something is still top of the tree. I always strive for number 1!

There's ONE award, just by virtue of name alone, that almost anyone would be happier to slide by with a silver or bronze on... rather than have the sole claim to gold. HOW AWKWARD.

Well, I called it the KWAS award for the fact that he always seemed to gain the most responses. Now there's a new generation of statwhores, who are consistently gaining more responses than him, which is always a plus :)

Not quite - I have extra sort criteria. 1st is responses total, where both you and Nomader are tied. Second is the number of reviews, which Nomader has less of, so he takes the position. The third tie breaker, which has never been used so far, is the number of responses gained over this update. More active users gain more responses, therefore are more likely to advance between stat pull and the update.

About 58% of my total reviews are responded to and about 10% of my total responses are from Bahamut. A quick calculation states that Bahamut has given me about 15% of my total responses. The only person who may have contributed more is Afro_Stud.

What I meant (but forgot to actually type) was a tie in responses. I guessed that Nomader is placed ahead of me because he has a higher response rate.
But your criteria is more or less the same to what I had in mind.

Yes, due to the Review Request Club, where I want to keep my nifty 100% completion rate AND due to the fact that I want to be higher in the response list. A task which requires me to write more reviews so that I can gain more responses... ^^

If the ball bounces, it's going to be a ball, but if the batter swings, he can be called for a strike. I wonder if anyone has homered off such a ball?

Well, there's plenty of high balls that no umpire would call a strike, but SOME great hitters could hit a homer off of.... and that's a perfect case of a blatant ball that's a strike all the time with other batters whiffing at it in SPECTACULAR FAIL manner...

But no, I doubt anyone has, at least in the modern 1900-present era of teh MLBs.

However, in the 2004 playoffs, Carlos Beltran (when he was an Astro) hit a "golf shot" off of Cardinal pitching in the NLCS.... that the commentators exaggerated was "in the dirt" or "on the plate" or something similar to those wordings.

In reality, it was a very low pitch, probably a called ball from any umpire, but he swang low, scooped it up, golf-swing style, and rocketed it into the right field home bullpen for a home run.

It was wicked awesome, in Red Sox fan parlance. #;-}>

Well, perhaps you should rename it, then. A "memorial KWAS award" seems to have been hastily named unless the "he always seemed to" period you reference was really all that long-lasting. I don't get the impression it was.

But no, I doubt anyone has, at least in the modern 1900-present era of teh MLBs.

However, in the 2004 playoffs, Carlos Beltran (when he was an Astro) hit a "golf shot" off of Cardinal pitching in the NLCS.... that the commentators exaggerated was "in the dirt" or "on the plate" or something similar to those wordings.

In reality, it was a very low pitch, probably a called ball from any umpire, but he swang low, scooped it up, golf-swing style, and rocketed it into the right field home bullpen for a home run.

Interesting, but i don't recall that bouncing, just being low. It takes so much more skill to hit a bounced ball, doesn't it?

What, you'd prefer to WIN the KWAS award? Come on, now. #;-}>

Yes, master Yoda.

There's ONE award, just by virtue of name alone, that almost anyone would be happier to slide by with a silver or bronze on... rather than have the sole claim to gold. HOW AWKWARD.
Well, I called it the KWAS award for the fact that he always seemed to gain the most responses. Now there's a new generation of statwhores, who are consistently gaining more responses than him, which is always a plus :)
Well, perhaps you should rename it, then. A "memorial KWAS award" seems to have been hastily named unless the "he always seemed to" period you reference was really all that long-lasting. I don't get the impression it was.

Memorial implies he's dead. I'm not naming the award the "Livecorpse Memorial", as he had very little to do with responses.

Oh, a tie for spot #90. I think there are some Bahamut flashes I haven't reviewed yet... after that I need to find some more response-sources... ^^
Not quite - I have extra sort criteria. 1st is responses total, where both you and Nomader are tied. Second is the number of reviews, which Nomader has less of, so he takes the position. The third tie breaker, which has never been used so far, is the number of responses gained over this update. More active users gain more responses, therefore are more likely to advance between stat pull and the update.
What if the people have the same responses, same reviews, and are both NEW, like Nomader and Haggard both were?

Sign-up date, then?

I've got the stats for people who aren't on the top 100 and I'm tracking them onto the list. Haggard outgained Nomader, but was placed below in the case of Response Rate being lower.

Yes, perhaps Cyberdevil, so one he gets #1 in responses, I bet the KWAS award will be renamed to the Cyberdevil award.

Should have noted 666 as a milestone, sorry. I'll make it up to you for 777 :P

Actually, saying I got 777 responses isn't enough. You also need to make a picture for me for when I get it. :)

Good, in the top 5 again. Not at the top, though, but one day, it could happen if Afro_Stud did a MAJOR CATCH-UP on ALL OF HIS FLASHES!
I think he owes me about another 5 now...

And he still owes me about 30 more responses, that bastard. He'll be owing me yet more responses when I decide to finally review all his ATWI80D flashes. However, he claims he'll never respond to reviews for those flashes now, that fucking bastard.

List of flashes you've not reviewed yet (ordered from most recent):

Adolf Hitler:CAI493+D SE2
Mars is Next! (4/3)
On Holiday
Bahamut: ATIO80W 02

Yes. About 50% of my responses are from Bahamut. ^^

Haha, easy responses. XD

Indeed, but I can do it!

Maybe I should give in and review all teh Bahamut flashes.

GO ON!

I'm not going to bother with Afro_Stud flash, because I don't want to join Coop and Bahamut's "will he or won't he ever respond?" drama parties, though. #;-}>

You can easily get responses from the newest ones he submits, but trying to get responses from ALL 300+ flashes of his, don't count on that, unless you harassed him daily about it.

Yes. About 50% of my responses are from Bahamut. ^^

A possible 84 responses from myself and I'll still go on and on. My haters can DIAF.

That's what this place is getting more of since I've taken the lists over - commitment! Great stuff.

Are you saying you have a 100% response ratio, Haggard? Why is this the first I've heard of it?

What size are they? Normal 'fresh from the chicken' size? I've had about 2 dozen Creme Eggs, which is a pretty decent stat for me, judging by recent years inputs.

That's a whole shitload of Cadbury's..... I like 'em, but not enough to eat 24 in a single Easter season, I don't think. Maybe 6. #;-}> I've had 0 this year, actually.

As for the size of the cups... they're not actually egg-shaped like actual eggs or Creme eggs. They're flat because they're just modified regular PB cups:

There's a pic. The egg is about as long as a drink coaster's surface area's diameter is.

Here's the page that pic is from:

http://www.typetive.com/candyblog/item/r eeses_eggs/

Aside from the chocolate/PB egg for Easter, Reese's puts out a Pumpkin come Halloween time, a Christmas Tree, and a Valentine's Day Heart. Which means October through April is pure bliss, as all four of them taste even better than regular cups.

I dunno why Reese's doesn't just make one of them all-year long. I wish they would, those effin' teases.... Regular PB Cups just don't measure up. And... I've only got 3 6-packs of the Eggs left... and I forgot to go post-Easter candy shopping with my gf this week. Meaning they're all gone by now. ;_;

Excuse me for sounding dense, but what does RRR stand for? (And LLL for that matter)
Oh, the Review Response Ratio, of course. Remember? The first list having to do with the review responses, made by yours truly, which ranked it all by ratio, not by overall count of responses, which is why I often comment on your schema for ranking your list? #;-}>
Well, that would certainly shake the rankings up and gain me a few spots, but on the other hand, with RebeccaRose, I'd never be able to ascend to top dog. KWAS is at least passable.

True enough.

LLL = List Leapers List. The list I used to post in the pentalist topic after every single update, featuring how the new entrants to the list did?

Jeez, man. And you call yourself a fan of my lists. #;-}>
Fan of your lists, but I never understood the List Leapers. Considering how much list leaping I did on your pentalist update, I really should learn more ;)

Just ask iscrulz to give you a primer on it. He was a superfan of my LLL. I don't think anyone but him is as disappointed I didn't make a LLL for this ultimate pentalist update this month.... but oh well.

I could understand you not knowing what RRR referred to, as I don't think anyone used the acronym predominantly to refer to my old "one-off" list. But not to recognise LLL on site? (GASPS)
Teach us, oh wise and mightly gfox!

Well, seeing as how the last time I made a LLL was December 2006, there ain't gonna be no more teachings.

I should teach myself to type "sight" there, though, not "site." WTF was I smoking?

Looks to me like Darkside's gonna take me out back o' the bar and give me a sound beating in the alley of rank-swaps... quite soon indeed. #;-}>
His response gain is erratic. He didn't get any last month, remember.
WE'LL SEE. He needs so few....
I'll see him in the next update, still behind you :P

It's a deal.

However, in the 2004 playoffs, Carlos Beltran (when he was an Astro) hit a "golf shot" off of Cardinal pitching in the NLCS.... that the commentators exaggerated was "in the dirt" or "on the plate" or something similar to those wordings.

Interesting, but i don't recall that bouncing, just being low. It takes so much more skill to hit a bounced ball, doesn't it?

But of course it does. You remember it, eh? Cool.

I wasn't saying it bounced, I said it was the lowest pitch I've seen someone hit, and he not only hit it, but hit it for a homer.

Like I said, the people who said the pitch was "in the dirt" or "on the plate" were exaggerating it, meaning the ball stayed in the air, it was just between the bottom of the strike zone and the plate. #;-}>

If allowed to continue in flight, i.e. no bat hitting it, and no catcher's glove getting in the way, it probably would have hit the dirt... oh, around where the catcher squats.

Well, by popular opinion around these parts, and judging from the response KWAS has gotten when he actually posts in Wi/Ht?.... I think it's safe to say that to many Wi/Ht?ers, KWAS is "DEAD TO [THEM]." As Colbert might say. #;-}>
