Nice work =)
And my brain is dying as I write this, and I'm really tired, so comment post tomorrow, because spending 10 hours on a list is not good for your health. Ugg. All I can think of right now is newgrundling getting the most b/p points. But comments tomorrow, just enjoy the list now, or die :)
10 hours on 250 people just isn't right. Even at my worst, I was taking 10 hours to do manual stat pulls on 2500 people and post on ~800. I leave for Spain on Wednesday, and have some image updates I'm trying to get done before then. In any spare time I've got between now and then, I'll see what I can sketch out for you. Worst case, I'll come up with a format you can copy down and fill in. Good luck =)

Um, is this the next Denvish/fixit/yaya12/whatever?
Only if he steps the pace up quite a bit ... and it's fixit/Denvish/yaya ;)
Mein Gott. Don't these people have commitments? I remember in the summer it was ok, since I wasn't doing anything except 5 hours of summer school a day and about 4 hours of work a day. So it was fine to just dedicate the rest of the day and some of the night to NG. But now people are still going crazy. I'm guessing they just really don't care about school work, or have easy classes. Or are adults with nothing better to do.
You signed up about when I did, so you should know better than to ask silly questions like that. There will always be people who have the spare time and the focus to BP at a high rate for extended periods of time. The limiting factor has always been the volume of submissions, not the wherewithall of the voters.

oops sorry I forgot to add the whole reason I posted .. # 299 is this guy Chris_Aldin
Always good to see someone helping fill in the blanks. Finding people who are about to make the list is reason enough to post in and of itself ... putting PIDs to the blanks to be ;)

75-100 per day isn't too bad. If you look at the EGRL archives there were many people achieving that rate.
~nod~ Originally pace levels started out as a relative value. The more submissions that came in, the higher your pace needed to be to have a special mention; in some cases you needed WELL over 100/day to get a special mention. When the submission rate died down, it changed into the flat rates of 50/day and 100/day with the split at 75/day inserted thanks to carmel's suggestion. What they're looking at as the "speedies" is actually a pretty sedate pace. When you're getting almost 200/day entries, 75+ is fairly easy.
... I'd better stop ... I feel like I'm about to begin a sentence with, "Why back in my day .." lol

Denvish and yaya12 were at least gaining 130, if not 140, blam/protect points per day.
MPA didn't get starred an awful lot, but let's not leave him out. If I was giving stars out for 100+ instead of 1k pace, he'd have his own galaxy. While the 1k paces tended to be an irregular event, subject to the submission whims, MPA just had (has?) a consistency to his high pace that wasn't matched until Denvish came back.

Oh, yeah baby =)
Heh, nice one =) I think I'd have been dusting off the green star for you by now if I hadn't quit.

Aw man, couldn't you have done the update now? A +8 would look so much better than a +6 ;P
There's always someone who complains about the timing ;) Look at it this way, next week you start with a +2 =)
