I never said anything about you taking a long time to get on the VP list.

Hell, you've been on it for several months, I think. O_o You're well over 7.50, for one thing.

Did you mean saves list when you said vote power list? Cause it DID take awhile, yanno. #;-}>

The way it's done now, the Quad list is the probably hardest thing to get on, followed by the top 50 protectors and the XP list. The VP list, back when NGling was running it, never listed more than 200 people; the usual was only ~160ish. At the time, neither ramagi nor JT was running an XP list and I don't believe the Quadlist had yet started so that was an accurate assessment. All the lists have gotten longer, even when their parameters haven't changed, so it's technically easier now to get on them now than it was last year, if for no other reason than people have had 6-9 months more to gain points in whatever stat is being tracked.

Since the BP list is approaching a year old, I've started thinking in "anniversary" terms. Where was this list originally posted and when did it start? I presume you still have it bookmarked someplace.

The first post in this thread is the first time this list was posted on NG BBS. I had done like 5 or 6 updates from late March to late April for myself, though, that I never posted on the BBS. They were not full 50 person updates, however, as I hadn't fully built the list.

Pretty much. Well, I'll still be moving upwards in the blam list, but not here anymore. And this is the list that started it all, so... well, we'll see. But hopefully D0GMA will take it on.

well now, i guess there is only one thing left for me to do. I will get ahead of you gfox, and stay there, and never let you win so you can always update. MUAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..

I doubt that's going to happen before I pass fixit, man.

TooCool: SAVES: Assisted in the protection of 14,488 quality entries.
gfoxcook: SAVES: Assisted in the protection of 15,675 quality entries.
fixit: SAVES: Assisted in the protection of 16,101 quality entries.

As you can see, I have only 426 saves to make before I pull even with fixit, whereas you are over 1000 behind me. I don't think your chances are very good. But you're still welcome to try. O_o

How about you just wait till I pass fixit and enjoy the #1 saviour spot for a few weeks, then feel free to pass me after that, take the saviour crown that you so deserve, and wear it with pride? O_o

anyway, nice list, good job. thx

I'm #3 :D

Of course you're #3, what other # would you be? (yay, rhyming)

Or did you just mean you passed ramagi recently? #;-}>

Now it's just a matter of time until I pass this little inactive baby. And I know I'm rather a good saver, so that means I will pass him soon enough. When the time comes. Or maybe he just won't let me pass over him because of the pride.

thisisasignin isn't inactive, alex. He's been getting a few points here and there for the past month or so. He was at 24050 for like half a year, so you can see he's gotten a few hundred points since coming out of retirement. Not very many points, but still some. I don't think very many are saves, though, so... you're probably already past him, eh?

I never ever ever said the vote list is hardest to get to, and nor would I say it's hardER than this list or the top 50 blam list. For one thing, these two lists are TOP 50s, and thus only have 50 spots. The top voting power list has hundreds of spots!

The way it's done now, the Quad list is the probably hardest thing to get on, followed by the top 50 protectors and the XP list. The VP list, back when NGling was running it, never listed more than 200 people; the usual was only ~160ish. At the time, neither ramagi nor JT was running an XP list and I don't believe the Quadlist had yet started so that was an accurate assessment. All the lists have gotten longer, even when their parameters haven't changed, so it's technically easier now to get on them now than it was last year, if for no other reason than people have had 6-9 months more to gain points in whatever stat is being tracked.

Quad list is toughest, eh? I dunno about that.

Well, if you take the exp list to be the top 500 exp or whatever, maybe so. But ramagi's old top 100 exp list was the hardest, hands down, to get onto.

Yeah, maybe she remembers us talking of those bygone NGling top 160 VP list days....

I think I was saying something else. Like I am finally going be on this list. I can not actaually remember fully.

Response to Top 50 Protectors List 2004-07-20 01:22:36


Just a little bump to warn that the end of gfox's updating of this list is at hand.

As I just said over in the blamlist thread, the 1 year anniversary of me creating a blam list to go along with this saves list is less than a week ago, and so is the final updates (by me) of both lists.

Why? Because I'm about to pass fixit in saves. When I created this list, it was to see how I was doing in terms of saves alone, because back then I had more saves (up to 1000 more) than blams and I preferred saving flash... I felt pride in my ratio and wanted to see how I compared to the people ahead of me on the top 50 b/p list (at the time I had just entered it and was in the 40s range).

Well, I found that I compared quite nicely. When I created this list in March of 2003, I was ranked #25... quite a bit higher than my overall b/p official NG ranking, as I just mentioned. Much of my b/ping over the past year and a half, in fact, has been towards this day. I love blams too, don't get me wrong. And I loved scaling the overall ranks and especially getting new rank badges and more VP.... but overall.... above all this.... was the desire to be #1 in saves.

And even if it doesn't last but one day because fixit wakes up again, passing him will be sweet. As he passed ramagi, now I pass him. I made a whole baseball Home Run crown analogy in level up!... which is kinda corny, but... fairly similar in terms of stats alone (if not how the stat is obtained, of course... there's not much physical about clicking your mouse).

And in my own way, I feel pride about it. I don't feel proud about much, so I'll take comfort in this achievement. #;-}>

So anyway, expect an update, as I said in the other thread, within the week. I may time it to happen on 7/26, which is when the blam list joined this list in twin top50ness... or I may do it before then. But I'm going to a cousin's wedding on 7/24, and thus the weekend may be busy. Before OR after it is the most likely time for an update. This is going to be quite the insane update since 2 months have passed by... then again, last time I updated, MORE than 2 months had passed by and it was even worse, probably. I hope you all enjoy one more go-round with me in these threads... and then I will retire the lists in the format I have done them... focus solely on the quadlist in its new form and the VP list... and let Dogma integrate these lists with the b/p 51+ list, as they work perfectly with them (stat pull is the same for them, after all).

It's been a good run, people... since March 2003... posting the list here since early May 2003... but I wasn't even planning on updating this list forever. I've lasted longer, however, as a single person updating a single list they created... than anyone else has... so there ya go. Take it for what it's worth.

The version(s) of the Top 50 Saviors list I plan on doing is posted at the EGRL site and is accessible via the Current button.

When gfox posts his final update in the next day or two, please take the time to compare the two and let me know what you would like changed about, or added to, mine.

MPA on his promotion to Elite Guard Lieutenant Colonel
MPA on his promotion to Elite Guard Colonel
Seraphius on his promotion to Elite Guard Captain &
-PZY- on his promotion to Elite Guard Captain

since the last update of the list.

List Stats:

The Top 50 Protectors currently have 360,810 saves (+18,668)
The Top 50 Protectors currently have 679,560 blams (+63,647)
The Top 50 Protectors currently have 1,040,370 combined b/p (+82,315)

53.09% is the Top 50 Protectors' overall save-to-blam % (-02.46%)
34.68% of the Top 50 Protectors' combined b/p are saves (-01.03%)

Welcome to:

MPA, who is the only person to doublelist this update (not to mention the only person to be added to the saves list). Great job, man!

Farewell to:

HeRetiK, whose passing indeed confirms that this is the coming of a new age. Heretik, for those who weren't aware... used to be in the top 15 saviours... his fall is due to his spare time being spent on his awesome flashes... so for that we can be thankful. Still, I am truly sad to see him fall off both my lists, never to return. I remember when I passed him in b/p, way back around 9500 total... seems so long ago. WAS so long ago, I guess.

DANGER ZONE:

It took me 2 months and 1 day to get enough protects to pass fixit and then find time to do this list update... and so... last time I had NO idea that MPA would be the threat to enter this list... so, while I correctly predicted Heretik would be next to go, my guess that it would either be _Newt or nimmer or Overtired or TimScheff or HerneTheHunter who knocked him off was far from correct, clearly. Anyway, since I won't be updating this list anymore, it seems kinda pointless to make predictions for "next time," but I WILL say that _Newt was very close to making the list today (within 50 or so saves). He'll be on Dogma's version of this list at some point in the near future.

Greg's Notes:

It's been real fun doing these lists for you. This one, in particular, was started in late March, 2003... as a list for myself and myself alone. A month later I ended up posting it to this topic, and thus on 5/5/2003, this topic was born. Over the time since then (a span of 448 days), I have posted 41 updates of the Top 50 Protectors List. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have. One last time, a few of my notes about this particular update:

32 rankups this time, compared to 29 and 44 and 6 and 21 and 13 and 8 and 14 and 7 and 11 and 16 and 6 and 7 and 7 the last thirteen times (total of 221 for the protectors list!). 29 are on both lists, the other 3 are only on this list.

The amount of non-doublelisted people has grown from 12 to 13. Coulda been a lot worse, really. We've entered a period of time not unlike how things were a year or more ago, when there was an abundance of people only on one or the other list. I thought those times had passed by half a year ago when it seemed the trend was towards everyone getting on both these lists AND the combined b/p list... but all things come in cycles, I suppose.

Just like in the May update, I have only noted the rank-at-the-time-of-ranking-up for Brigadier Generals and above. Congrats to everyone who ranked up, though. There was a fair amount of it, but perhaps not as much as one might have guessed since this was the absolute longest period of time between updates of these two top 50 lists... and yet we didn't break a rankup record (that was in the spring).

You may check out the most recent Top 50 Blammers List by clicking the link I just posted. Enjoy comparing the lists to each other and to the Top 50 Combined B/P List. People on both the Top 50 Blammers List and the Top 50 Protectors List are denoted with ***.

Narcisuss' fall was always the one that troubled me. Heretik at least is putting out great flash instead, but it's been over 18 months since Qi came out and nothing new from Narc ~sigh~

I'm hoping this is more of a curiousity question than that you haven't noticed all the comments about the updates continuing lol If gfox wants to do an update, like for the example you gave or an "anniversary special," I'm more than happy to stand down while he does it (or them). If things change and he decides to pick them back up, they're all his =)

and you retire as the poster of the top 50 blammer and protectors list as #1 Protector on Newgrounds.

Quite an accomplishment.

That was kinda the idea of waiting 2 months until I could do this update. I didn't have much passion for putting in the time on another update with me behind fixit. #;-}> Thanks!

Heh. For one thing... unless fixit reactivates, I'm in no immediate danger. I touched the greatness of #1 in saves this past week... and even if only lasted a week or a month, I'd still have done it, right? But I suspect it will last for a bit more than that.

And for another... The purpose of this list was for me to chart my save progress (and my higher rank in saves than in overall b/p) against that of my fellow top 50 b/p combined members. I enjoyed doing so... but when I hit #1 the original purpose of this list died. So no, I don't plan on ever doing full updates of either list again. As fixit passed ramagi, as I passed fixit, as you may one day pass me... I'm just happy to have been on the list of #1s, and my motivation for personally doing this list is now eased, though I will still enjoy reading the list when Dogma updates it along with each full EG list.

I also went up on this list. WooHoo. 13 spots that is pretty impressive seeming all the crap that gets put on NG.

48 to 35 is almost as impressive as MPA's rise on the other list. Hell, what am I saying... this is the SAVES list, where things move like tired legs walking through deep snowdrifts. That's INSANELY impressive, man. Your move upwards on both lists was great, because you balanced fairly well between rising on both of 'em.

You are teh doublelisted. What, besides the two top 50s (well, and the official top 50), are the other lists? Dogma's, the VP list, QuadList... Review List... ? What about the exp list? Do tell!

True enough. But Narci, as I like to call him (WTF?), was never a savior that I looked up to like Heretik, and agent66 before him, were. Those two guys had great ratios favouring saves... and when I was a little top 50 b/p list nooblet, they were my idols on the list, pretty much. agent66 fell so quickly that it was disheartening, but nothing was worse than seeing that Heretik has now fallen off both the top 50 lists I started... unless it was seeing him fall off the official top 50, I suppose.

Anyway, Heretik continues to put out great flash and agent66 is back and reviewing a shitload and getting exp again and some b/p and ranking up and threatening to get back ahead of me in VP, etc. etc. etc. so... perhaps Narci will return as well, eh? He's still on one of the two top 50 artists lists, isn't he?

Very nice runs on both. Greatly appreciated and much thanks =)

Thanks. Having taken the reins from NGling on the VP list, I think I'm in a position to understand the mixed happiness and sadness one can feel when taking over a list one's always enjoyed receiving from the previous updater, so... a bit of mirror-reflected deja vu may now commence. But, at least I won't be disappearing off the face of NG like NGling did... O_o

The 8477-8170 range you're at the tail end of, you mean? That IS quite tightly packed... but then again, this is the saves list... glaciers sometimes move faster than people on this list. And yep, X has quite the upward climb, especially now that signin is on the move once more. #;-}>

^^ grats again. It would have been nicer if fixit hadn't gotten that old protect processed ... keep the numbers all nice and round.

Thanks! It's the bestest. The only thing that could make it better would be hitting 40,000 b/p with a 20000/20000 split, but alas...

Maybe so. But I have all active people in my spreadsheets for these lists boldfaced, and I would unbold the inactive people... so... funnily enough, fixit's never shown up as inactive in my spreadsheet. Never. Two updates ago he was in the 48000s... One update ago he was at 49501. And today he's at 49503. He always managed to stay bold... that robot is a GENIUS. #;-}>

If gfox wants to do an update, like for the example you gave or an "anniversary special," I'm more than happy to stand down while he does it (or them). If things change and he decides to pick them back up, they're all his =)

Toocool's just hoping he can get me to endure the masochistic ritual of my top 50 update process by passing me in saves, that's all. I think I already debunked that theory further up in this post. #;-}> The most I'll ever probably do is a 20,000 save miniupdate screenshot celebration or something. No REAL updates anymore for me, barring me winning the lottery (and I don't play) or being hired by NG to be the official listmaster admin here and thus getting paid for insane listmadness (but if that happened, I'd just make official daily top 50 blam and top 50 save lists anyway).

Anywho, that said... these lists aren't any less special to me now that I'm #1 in saves or anything, if that's what Toocool thinks... They just take so much more time and effort than the other lists I do (NGling designed the VP spreadsheet well and I tried to emulate that with the Quadlist). Still, I'll always have a fond spot for this one especially. :::salutes the saves list, long may she wave:::

Ok well i'm in the following: Official top 50 b/p, Dogma's b/p, top 50 blammers, top 50 protectors, 10,000+ quad list, and the top vp lists. Ok so I guess there is one more I want to be in which is Ramagi's Top 500 exp list. So add that one, which i'll get later than sooner. I don't have enough interest in reviewing to ever be in it Jon's list so I don't see that as a list i'm trying to get and if there was still the top posters list I wouldn't care if I was never in it because I've never been a postaholic.

There's a long paragraph where I talk about the next updates being due when I pass fixit in saves, and that they'd be the final updates of the top 50 saves and top 50 blams lists by me. You can't say this came without warning as everyone else has known this was coming for 2+ months now.

Just curious, but the welcome lists for the top 50s... are those for the B and D lists exclusively, or will people entering the A and C list be "welcomed" as well? Wasn't really clear.

The top batch is A&B, lower is C&D. I think of the types (Total Stat & By %) rather than the styles (Everyone & Active Only) together. Just a difference in the way we think of things adding to the issue.

It looked clear enough when I wrote it, but I can see what you mean. I chose not to split out the different batches from the Welcome while I was doing Blammers. -Reaper- (-apocalypse now I think) is newly on the A list, but had already been on the B lists so I chose to just put everyone together and carried that over to here. No one is new on the A or B, so it looks like there's only a "welcome" on C&D ...

I hadn't thought far enough ahead on the Top 50s to sketch out a game plan for the announcements I was going to make at post time. You can tell I'm still a little brain fried by how disjointed this post is, so it may be a while until I start trying to come up with one lol

No, I group A&B and C&D together as well, especially since that grouping splits the lists I'm on from the lists I've no hope of being on (unless 30 or so s2b% masters turn dark and start blamming left and right).

I only asked if the welcome list was of B&D because the B&D lists get people added to them before those people can reach the A&C lists, that's all, and since the welcome to: was just a list of people without identifying what they were being welcomed to... well, there ya go.

heh. Well, since you've already split the rankup congrats section into A&B and C&D, perhaps the post in here should just be totally split into those two areas, something like so:

A&B section

congrats to these people on rankups:
blahhdfh

welcome to the active-only list:
lafasjfsa

welcome to the overall top 50:
algewgfe

C&D section

congrats to these people on rankups:
lasrfhfa

welcome to the active-only list:

welcome to the overall top 50:

and rinse and repeat for the other top 50, of course.
