Top 500 bounded. :)

Oh yes the update was good. Thanks I should be 91st at the next one.

I can't remember when I was in the 601st rank and above, it be slowng. Well well I bet the people ahead of you should FEAR Joo huh.

Man, I hadn't replied in here for much longer than in some other threads. Damned partial catchups... catching up with me. #;-}>

We were talking about KWAS71KCK. He's since fallen behind me in the Experience scheme of things, as has he for Voting Power :P

Ah, thanks.

Also, I'm a top 50 Protector, top 50 Reviewer, top 50 Audio Reviewer, top 50 Flash Review Response gainer and a top 50 list maker.
I never mentioned anything about the top 50 for experience, which I'm slowly closing in on...

Oh dear....

I know and you know that you laughed at that. I think Bahamut feels like he's won something by getting me to focus on the top 200, which I'm now 24 places away from.

I see.

Speaking of which, while talking with him on Steam the other day, I mentioned that it would be nifty if gfox could enter the top 200 on the same day that gfoxclock enters the top 100 and gfoxcook enters the top 50.

No way it'll happen, but the day that each of those three happens is at hand. 50/100/200... nifteh synchronicity.

Speaking of which... (see end of post)

See, after all that Ike threw at you, you still ended up walking away from it without losing your home, your loved ones and your deposits.

Not quite in order of importance, but yes. #;-}>

(and before any wiseasseries say or think I meant deposters is #1, I meant loved ones comes before home, dagnabit!)

BAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
3 days.......3 days more
12/9/2008 is a much better date :)

And you pass humantarget then? Wow, kinda funny to think he used to be #1 in EXP and has stopped depositing for over a year now. Ah yes, back in 2004 - 2006, he was on top of the spot. I know you know this shit, but I just wanted to look back.

Epicer.

Look at the bright side, you're ahead of the majority of NGers in EXP. :)

Oh, there's an even brighter side than that. (again, see end of post)

NEBAR MISH ENY. ;_;

EW EAR MI?!

DRAGGIN'Y BASTICH!

Is this some Star Wars accent?

LOL! No, I have no idea what it was supposed to be. When I say bastich, I always have in mind a vague Scottishness to it, but looking at the above insanity I all-capped at you, I think any drunken bastard from any nation on Earth would work. #;-}>

COOP/BAHAMUT HUMAN/DRAGONFIGHT TIEMS.

Yes, but if it's sexy to anyone, they'll call it a catfight. So let's cover all the bases.

Fuck catfights, human/dragonfights sounds more epic.

But not as SEXY. You're missing the important part here.

I tried that, but things really fucked up with the EXP list, so I do a separate pull for them.

Ah.

You crazy bastards with your complaining about being outside the top 200. At least you can actually pass 5-6 users in a week or two's time.

Uhh, what about when I was #335 or something for THREE WEEKS?!?!

Sucks for you, I guess. O_o

I mean, being stuck that rank for three weeks isn't good. Of course, you rank up even less often now, but it's more reasonable for you. When I enter the top 200, I'll then start accepting myself being stuck at certain ranks for at least 2 weeks.

But at least you're moving again upwards, right?

...

OKAY, end of replies.

Thanks for 2-3 updates since I last posted. I did indeed miss a few, but I don't see much point in looking over old exp updates like I do with pentalist updates, say, should I miss any along the way.

So let's take a look at this here current update alone. I was #58 back before our presidential election, which wasn't so long ago... #58, and feeling very very far away from the top 50 holy land indeed, but... what's this?

50 22,905 46 000 -2 altr
51 22,880 46 250 0 100816
52 22,780 46 250 0 iWalker
53 22,698 46 280 +1 Uniqueusername
54 22,680 46 240 -1 Crownjo
55 22,660 46 250 +1 LemonClock-X
56 22,630 46 270 +1 gfoxcook

Okay... first thought: up from 58 to 56, woot. That's a lot closer, but that aside, I'm not likely to move up much more anytime soon, right? I mean, +2 in 2 months where I'm at is way more than you can even hope for, this is amazing already. And hell, I missed a deposit again.

BUT THEN... a quick check of the very very very few profiles between me and top 50 land... shows...

altr.........: 22905 +000 exp (again) ... down to #52 rank
# dude..: 23010 +130 exp... up to #50 (grats!)
nimmer: 22930 +150 exp... up to #51
uniquey: 22858 +160 exp... holding at #53 despite his big gain
crowny.: 22800 +120 exp... holding on at #54
lemon...: 22790 +130 exp... down (thanks to my tiebreaker) to #56
me.........: 22790 +160 exp... holy shit, I CAN'T DRIVE.... #55!

So not only have I passed (well, pending him not depositing today, but he's missed 3 in the past couple weeks, so seems possible, at the very least) yet another person, there are 2-3 more ahead not depositing very well right now, and then altr who's not depositing at all.

I just may get to the top 50 much faster than I expected. I was hoping for by 2010, but at this rate, there may be more of 2009 left than elapsed when I hit it. O_o

Hooray!

I'll be on here next time...

Can't wait, you do a great job with this.

Well, I made my goal of top 200 by new years. Next step is top 150, which I may yet arrive at pending the results of 2009's rat race. Having just looked, it looks like I've got a solid four or five users to pass in the next month, but if I can catch and surpass at least three a month for the next year I should be at or around goal come the big '10.

I was excited to see the big goose-egg next to BVBG's name this update, but it looks like he's been depositing since so my hopes of surpassing him are somewhat dashed for the time being.

Just FYI. When I checking the list out and I noticed that Firehound was on it twice. No biggie, really.

He is #1305 and #1306.

Thanks for all the updates Bahamut!

im just stopping by to say that gfox is the man

/edn

passed bedn lewls. he joined this site almost two years before me and now he's eating my dust. guess jail time really catches up with you...

I was able to grind out another 25+ spots this month. By skimming the list, looks like that will be the trend for a longtime.

...Lycos shall be no more if my account is supposed to be cancelled on 15th February.

EXP update #9 is now available!

There's likely to be a lot of users missing, more especially between the 8k - 9k range, so forgive me if your EXP rank doesn't look accurate on the list.

If any users in front or behind you have gained 260 EXP or less, they've definitely missed a deposit since the last update.

Enjoy the update everyone!

Next Update: 27th February/1st March 2009

Thanks for the update! Next update, I shall enter the top 500. There are still quite a lot inactive users in front of me. :D

Nice update, its always fun to lurk through these lists and see how everyone is going, and who isn't.
I might be on this by the end of the year if I'm lucky...

Thanks for the update Bahamut!

Entered the top 400 Experience in the last period, which is great. Now there´s a bunch of guys above me who do not deposit that often, so I should easily gain a few more ranks over the next couple of days.

Apparently I missed a deposit!? What the... how the... I... I... grr, wow.
/me goes wild for a bit.
So sluggish from my part, I hadn't missed a deposit since the day they took the site down for the redesign. :/

Oh well, not too important I guess... Thanks for the update Bahamut

it gets easier each time it happens. maybe you should let a few slip by so it doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore. ; P

Thanks for the update, Bahamut!

Looks like I'm going to be climbing up a few ranks within the month. So much so that I might even be able to enter the top 200 and start harping on about the quest for the top 150 :) That and my ongoing goal for the top 50!

Thanks to joeartguy and RandomFreak - I've passed you guys and have moved onto my next challenge

*Blows own trumpet*

Top 200 EXP, baby!

Thanks to Coop for reminding me, as I <strike>stopped caring</strike> forgot. Nah, just kidding, I've been getting just a little bit excited about the prospects of this top two hundred...ness for a while. I would also like to thank the person who deposits for me (he's a stud), because, really, this is his achievement. I actually haven't deposited in years.

Enjoy staring at my hairy arse, Coop. You're going to be behind me for A LONG TIME. :P

Thank you once again.

I jumped up 31 spots and I hope to have a similar move every month for quite some time :). I would be very happy to gain one spot per day!

Next Update: 27th February/1st March 2009

I am looking forward to it.

I'm still waiting for Bezman's game / thread / website of the who's arse competition.

Just passing through and I thought I'd check to see if I was still on this list. It appears I 'm still there, awesome.

Lots and lots of new names I have never seen before. Grats and commiserations to whomever deserves it.

I guess I fail to see how having someone else deposit for you for a period of multiple years is a personal achievement. To each his own I guess.

Wow, two of the old guard from the Very English Post showing up within days of each other. Sweet.

A shame that you fell behind with the experience count, but I still have to chase you down for posts. You'll have to come down for the next meetup.

I'm sitting on the fence with regards to this one - I know that I've had people deposit for me in the past and I still seek congratulations for the milestones. Maybe one day I will catch these people ahead of me.

How ridiculous is it that you take this so seriously. These stats are completely worthless (sorry to offend, but it's true) and I genuinely could not care less if you think I should be congratulated or not. Sure it's a bit of fun, but when it comes to making stupid personal jabs, it's clearly taking over your life.

Never. And I mean NEVER, would I consider this a "personal achievement", that includes whether I deposited for myself or not. Rest assured, "Top 200 EXP on some Internet website" will not be going on my CV.

Unbelievable.

I don't know about deck but sir you have struck all of my nerves and I would like an apology

Oh hey, I'm actually on the list. Granted it's near the very bottom, but already I've moved up 7 spots since the update. Movin' on up indeed.

And by a few you mean about a years worth. C'mon people, what harm would taking a long break off NG do? You can fulfill your dreams in life and just think, all that's holding you down is having to be near a computer everyday to deposit experience points. Really now, what is the harm ;)

not coercion

Yes, I'm going up the ranks nicely right now. Infact, I shall be passing KWAS tomorrow and hopefully the depositers with equal amount of EXP as me will miss another deposit or two. ;)

You might have heard of him. He's a little Hentai fan, called Afro_Stud. In my opinion, someone who can dedicate themselves to the Portal like that and can't even be arsed to check the forums is a prick. Just doesn't have the priorities right, that's all I'm saying.
