Way to jinx in NEVR! :P

So I noticed that I have gotten wayyyy more saves than blams today, but I guess that is to be expected on Pico Day since more people actually try to make a good flash.

So hopefully everyones Pico Day is going well, but I won't be able to enjoy it for that much longer :(

LOL! Yup, it did seem to be a bit of a jinx. Oh well, I guess everybody is at school/college, or else too busy raking the portal for Pico day submissions.

Yeah, so have I actually. A lot of stuff is saved on Pico day normally, though. Clock day is going to be absolutely off-the-charts insane this year. It'll give me a nice little boost towards Supreme Commander.

So hopefully everyones Pico Day is going well, but I won't be able to enjoy it for that much longer :(

Why not?

I'll speak to you on MSN later, we need to talk rosters, my young apprentice. :P

No, vote normally. I mean, if it's a Pico/Tankmen/P-Bot/Whatever else Tom condones, and it has some effort put into it, you can bump up that 1 to a 2.

The weird thing is Ive been on this site for 8 years and a member for 7 and this is the first time Ive heard of Pico day, as odd as that sounds.

April 30th... Duly noted. So what do ya want for yer B-day? How bout an E-Cake and an E-present of yer choice on yer userpage?

The barracks does not support unfair voting of any kind. While I will say you may feel slightly more optimistic about Pico related flash movies on Pico day, I think nothing you would let pass...scrape that, you lack in judgment, nothing I'd let pass on an ordinary day, shouldn't pass on Pico day.

By pass, I of course mean, avoiding fair voting, not actually saving the flash. Heed my word, and thou shall by saved. Defy it, and lose all ability to create children (Pain Olympics style).

Good. I dont particularly care for clock day because of that same deal. Theres no way in hell anything is getting blammed and trying to vote fairly and blamming the spamming is a waste of yer time.

Yea sure why not, thanks!

And thus the curtain falls on another marvelous Pico day. That sure was exhausting, but it was worth it. I racked up quite a few saves and maybe a couple blams too. This is the best day of the year here on NG all year no comparison. When is clock day? August right? Well anyways I hope everyone enjoyed themselves today, I know I did!

I see nothing distinctly unlikable about him or his posts. If you have an issue with him, I suggest you start a thread in the Member Discussion section of our private forums, in an attempt to get it resolved.

If you don't want to do that, please at least send me a PM highlighting your problem with him, and I'll try my best to resolve it through the privacy of the PM system.

Sergeant First Class Nuts reporting in!

I'm now a Wi/Ht regular!

After posting there almost everyday, I became a Wi/Ht regular! I'm proud of it, I really am. I made a news post about it, drop me a line there if you want.

Also, has anyone noticed a glitch in the Flash Portal? Highlight a submission... Here's an example of it (scroll down)

One last thing: today is a holiday here! So today I didn't have class, and tomorrow I won't have neither. Cool, my B/P pace shall raise quite a lot today. =)

It's true, more quality flashes come. But look at the obituaries, 244 flashes were Blammed. A lot of spam was submitted too, and a lot of spam was deleted. Justice has been done.

August 15th, to be more exact.

Well, back to the Portal! It's been quite busy there today.

That's mostly due to all of Suaron's submissions being removed by Wade yesterday.

Relevant news post.

Are any of y'all getting a shitload of server errors lately? I thought it was just due to the MySQL update before, but it's still going on, so...bleh.

Ughhh tell me about it, it's starting to get really annoying. And yeah I thought that was supposed to end after the update but it hasn't improved anything as far as I can tell.

Oh, and Sir-nuts, in case you didn't notice the thread where you submit links to a spammy entry where you were arguing back and forth (I was on your side by the way) is now locked, soooo victory for the barracks i guess....

I got a few just now when I was trying to vote on an UJ submission - I voted, and a window popped up saying 'Server error... please try again". So I tried again, and the same thing happened a few more times. After that I refreshed the page and got the classic error screen for a few minutes.

Maybe the site just has a lot of traffic coming through right now.

But that is weird, yes that is exactly what happens to me, it seems like it's mostly in the portal, but what doesn't make sense is that there isn't a lot of traffic. There are only 260 users online give or take, and the most I've ever seen is almost 400. So just another thing to add to the list of things that need a fixin'.

Hmm, interesting. He had about 150 submissions, didn't he? I remember he submitting a 10MB blank screen and it passed.

No, not really. I was getting them right after the update, but now it's fine to me. Although there are some times when I have too many flashes loading and I vote on one of them and I get the "server error" box.

However, I just got a couple of them right now. 0_o

No really a victory of the Barracks, but a victory for everyone. If it continued, it would become a huge +1 post count place. Also, the second thread creator (Corky52) didn't accept my opinion, he didn't want to debate about it. Still, good thing that it got locked.

I know I completely agree with you it was for the good of NG that that thread was locked. BlueHippo is one of the most fair and active forum mods in my opinion, its a good thing we have him around this place or it would surely go to hell very quickly.

Ten-hut! Your Brigadier General has entered the Barracks!

Finally, after watching those last few points until my rank up arrive, I've been promoted to the first of the three General ranks. I'm getting there!

And to think when I joined this club I was a mere Praporshchik. What a long way I've come. Sexy badge picture to follow ;)

Brig. Gen. NEVR, out!
