Sir Elite Guard Master Sergeant the_phantom16 requesting permission to join the Barrack. My account has been active for 84 days ( had account trouble before, wasn't interested in b/p before I got it fixed... ), back then I was a safety patroller and 84 days later I'm here. Also in 0.95 days I'll be moving on to my next rank. May I join Sir!

Yes sir, you clearly are not far away. Keep at it soldier, and you will be more greatly rewarded!

I just calculated my save percentage, and it lyes at 32%. I'd love to have it at 33, beacuse then blams are exactly twice as many as my saves. It'll look better on the scoreboard.

With all due respect sir, it is only about 5,000 points. By the time General X has equalised his scores, he will probably have reached EGSC.

I assume, General, sir, that you are talking about the likes of Canas, Sarai, and those promoted to moderator? If that is the case, sir, I think it is good for the BBS, sir. I have heard many times in other realms of the thread that people think the mods are on all at one time, and some times are completely unmodded.

That is a problem, sir, and I think new mods will solve these issues. The more mods Wade Fulp sifts through, sir, the better chances of balancing out the moderator schedules.

Welcome, Private First Class psykolord! Great to have you in the barracks, soldier! I have taken the liberty to inspect your record, and you have been quite an honorable PFC as others have told you. I reckon, given a long, hard day's work at the Portal, that your commanding officers will see you fit for a promotion. This is a big time for you, PFC psykolord! Your leadership days await you! Now get out on that Portal and prove yourself! Hooah!

Well Priva....wait! SOLDIERS!

ATTEN-HUT! Fall in rank, soldiers, your Supreme Commander is here! Salute to Supreme Commander Zlurcsi! It is indeed an honor to have our first Supreme Commander here in the barracks, SIR. Might I ask, though, why you were under the guise of a private when you came in, sir?

In response to the blam/protects, sirs, I think that Commander Zlurcsi speaks fine words, but General XwaynecoltX does have a point. Sirs, if we get into the habit of shooting to kill without identifying the target, it is against the values we have set forth in this Elite Guard. I don't think of it as a drastic change in action on the Portal, but more as a change of mindset when on patrol. Remember that the Portal does have innocents out there, and it is our sworn duty to protect them. Thank you for listening, sirs!

*salutes*

I am glad that all of our fellow Elite Guards are congregating here in the Barracks! Discussion is way up, and this will undoubtedly be a great place in the future, not only for having fun, but for strategy forumulation.

In related news, my standard recon ops have produced further intel that the problem the NGPD HQ had has been quenched. Full resolution is imminent, and I trust Officer DarthMalentus' abilities to tie up the loose ends. That being said, soldiers, I will now go do my duty and protect our Portal! Hooah!

Sir, thank you for letting me in the Barracks. I will do my best on the portal but regarding saving we both know that letting flash get through by any one could result in another Barney Bunch file switch... For the record I would like to state my dedication by telling you that I'm sick and have a temp' of 38.2 C yet I still sit here on the portal. I protectors work is never done. Also I'm sure every one is aware of the flash movie you receive by being the 200 voter to save and the 100, 150, 200 voter to blam. I would like to ask you how many of each has you seen because that data is only available to the actual user. Personally I have seen 4 savoir ones and 7 Blam ones. Care to share your? Sir!

Master Sergeant, sir, I have not personally kept track of the flash I viewed. However, I believe it is around three times for saves and four times for blams, sir. I often do not see these flash, as I often move to attack of protect portal entrants immediately. However, I do catch one on occasion, and I must agree, sir, it is great.

true, however, if he decides to blam or protect whatever he sees, rather than protect only, he'll obtain the egsc rank faster.
having equal numbers is nice, but i prefer getting more as many point as possible.

of course, if time isn't the problem for him, then he should go with nice, round number and an even ratio of b/p points.

Careful, Master Sergeant. You may just concuss yourself, and have to put you on sick leave.

All this talk of a good Save-to-Blam ratio has made me realise that 40% of my recognised duties on the portal have been in the protection category. I shall make it my goal to get these two values balanced to 50% each, but I shall not let up on my duty. Rather, I shall prioritise the flashes with names that look like they shall be protected, before cleaning up what remains are left of the blammed.

My other goal is to raise my whistle level to Gold, as I have had silver for quite some time now, but have neglected in my efforts agains abusive and malicious content in the previous year. I shall refer to the Abusive Reviews thread on my return to the barracks.

I'm glad you mentioned that, sir. Once I reach EGSC, I have planned to semi-stop B/P'ing and try and get my alt to reach 1500 blams and 0 saves. I will still save flashes with my main account and blam crappy flashes with my alt.

I have thought of once reaching EGSC, get my alt to 1500 blams, so it's Elite Guard Private without a single save, Major General. After that, continue B/P'ing with my main account fully.

I was getting worried with the absence of Officer DarthMalentus and the actions of certain officers. You, no doubt are an excellent candidate for Officer DarthMalentus' second-in-charge. My recommendation to him is as such. All I can say is that you will serve the HQ well, and will damn sure make an excellent Elite Guard recruit.

Admirable stance, Private! I do not have quite as lofty of a goal, but I do wish to keep my B/P ratio to 2:1 or around there.

My other goal is to raise my whistle level to Gold, as I have had silver for quite some time now, but have neglected in my efforts agains abusive and malicious content in the previous year. I shall refer to the Abusive Reviews thread on my return to the barracks.

With all due respect, sir, nothing is impossible if someone puts their mind to it. I trust Private DaMainman, if he keeps his resolve towards this goal, will eventually, after long and hard work, obtain his goal. However, it is simply a matter of the soldier being up to the task. That is something the Private must sort out with himself.

Good catch, Staff Sergeant, but be aware that tomorrow is also Milano Day. It is no doubt that the Barney Bunch will use that to their advantage. They will probably disguise their flash is be a M-Day flash, then once it passes judgement, they will swap the file as they always do. Be sure you can tell the difference between the two.

Could one of you explain to me how file swapping works? I mean, I've seen its effects, when I've gone on missions to take out abusive reviews, but I still don't know exactly how it can work. :\
On another note, I plan to do double shifts on the portal over the weekend, to help clear out the trash. I've found something particularly useful for those of us who find a need to run a Disk Cleanup after Protecting four or five movies. I tend to do recon on movies/games with a file size under or right around 1,000 KB. Sadly, these usually are low-quality, so it tends to become a "search-and-destroy" mission on my part. So, if you're looking for high-quality FLashes to raise your Protection point count, it's often worth it to examine the high filesize flashes. Of course, these can also just be lousy movies with some music or a different type of animation that results in the high filesize, but these are exceptions to the rule, not the rule itself.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2005-12-02 21:11:49


I checked both links about the Barney Bunch and the Milano Crew...

On eachs website i couldnt find any special topics about submitting numerous different flashes in the forums, or maybe i just didnt see it.

Milano Crew Forum and the Barney Bunch Forum too bad for me I wont be home much tommorow, It appears that we could have 500+ flash submitted. Alot of B/P points there...

Excellent intel ops, Staff Sergeant Turk! I see your standard recon missions are doing us well! I propose the Elite Guard be at DEFCON 3 until midnight tomorrow night. If any Barney Bunch flash comes through the Portal, DEFCON 1 should immediately be enforced. We must protect the Portal, Guards! Be wary!

They will probably disguise their flash is be a M-Day flash, then once it passes judgement, they will swap the file as they always do. Be sure you can tell the difference between the two.

Excellent evaluation, Brigadier General, SIR! Some light recon on my part shows other groups will be on alert tomorrow, including a group called the Powergivers. I think the Elite Guard should have many allies out there. I shall journey to the Police Headquarters to alert them to this intel. Thank you for your input, sir!

File swapping, PFC psykolord, is very simple. Barney Bunch users submit flash content that is suitable for the Portal. After the file passes submission, the sumbit a new file and change the name. This is how fileswapping works, PFC. Be alert tomorrow, as your skills will be tested.

I recommend the Barracks attempt to post warning signs or known flash content used to get the Barney Bunch past submission. Obviously we will not be able to prepare the information soon enough for tomorrow, but it is a good idea for the future.

On another note, I plan to do double shifts on the portal over the weekend, to help clear out the trash. I've found something particularly useful for those of us who find a need to run a Disk Cleanup after Protecting four or five movies. I tend to do recon on movies/games with a file size under or right around 1,000 KB. Sadly, these usually are low-quality, so it tends to become a "search-and-destroy" mission on my part. So, if you're looking for high-quality FLashes to raise your Protection point count, it's often worth it to examine the high filesize flashes. Of course, these can also just be lousy movies with some music or a different type of animation that results in the high filesize, but these are exceptions to the rule, not the rule itself.

Sounds great, PFC. Good luck tomorrow!

Dammit

Sad state, soldier. I myself will be forced to go AWOL from 8AM to around 5PM. I hope the other Elite Guard members can support the Portal!
