Big congrats to Sentio for reaching the 50 spot! I hope to make it to the top 50 someday it's one of my long term NG goals. Very slowly making my way there.

Thanks, it has been an awful long time coming! Sure you will be joining me before long (just so long as you don't go pushing me back out again...). I fully intend to stay in the Top 50 if I can, but I'm always less active over the Summer (the outside suddenly becomes so much more appealing...), so it may be a struggle. A couple of inactive users just up ahead should make it a little easier I hope.

Another average week for me still got dakka and coop83 back there waiting for me to stumble and trip up. It's gonna be awhile before I move up any. But it'll be a pleasure passing DoD. >:)

Ah, the dream of so many, sure feels good ;)

Started out strong (60+ days), then I had to start studying. Even missed depositing one day I was so busy.

Thought you'd beat me this week. Guess you've been busy, and I've been lucky :)

Yeah - passing my finals and graduating from college takes precedence over B/Ping. But only by a little...haha

We are working on a top 1,000 B/Pers list.

To clarify this a little bit, I've been making a list from 301 to 500. I NEVER had any intention of making the list go to 1,000. I asked the guy who proposed that 2,000 b/p list if he wanted to help me and I suppose somewhere along the line he thought the list went to 1,000. I really don't know if I'm ever going to make a topic for it or not. I'm currently on vacation and I'm taking a break from adding/updating it, but I'm about 75%-80% done with it and I've not about 100 names from 501 +. I plan on maintaining it in my profile for a while as best I can and if I find updating it regularly possible then I might make a 301 to 500 thread, NOT a 1 to 500 thread. And certainly not a 1 to 1,000 thread. I do understand what kind of work goes in to making a list like this, and would never impose on what this list has going here. I mean no disrespect to it, its just a little experiment of mine that I really wish hadn't been presented the way it did...

Just received a call, they found enough psychics to bring me back to our world, it's a matter of time.

Of course from our years of banter over places like the mlb thread, here and the top savers list, you're aware that a man like me is obviously petrified of a boy like you.

Geez, I miss semesters. We're on the quarter system out here, which means I still have another month to go. You're lucky to already be done.

Once I go back to school, (graduate school, yepppiiiii!)

... wait, so, you graduated? All of the usual attitudes and crap aside, that's pretty frigging huge, even better than gaining a BP rank or ten. College degree +1. Congratulations! You should buy yourself a laptop to celebrate. Having computer restrictions all summer long is so middle-school.

I am just going to take 12 credit hours and not over-stressing myself.

Ha, "just" twelve semester hours of graduate school will be stress enough, I bet. Enjoy your summer while you can. :|

Huh. I still think this might be more effort than it's worth, although it's certainly more of a managable project than 300 to 1000, and Afro might have most of your data already, if he's willing to share. It might be interesting to see how movement looks on the next tier down, I guess, and once you get the list going, it would ultimately help Afro, too, if you're any good at finding upcoming names on the radar. I guess I can't agree that this is a terrible idea or a total waste of time, although I do think 300 is probably enough for now. Then again, I'm in the top 100, so of course I'm going to say that.

But, yeah, good luck if you do decide to keep going with it.

Just received a call again, they're ready.

It's not that I dislike them, it's just that I don't see them as any more important than any other regular day of

SO CLOSE.

Nothing to do with me. The ranks changed in their profiles for some reason. They seem to have changed back now though. If you want to know why it happened you'll have to ask an admin.

NO MORE PORN MAGS FOR THE BATTER ON DECK, FOLKS. Safety hazard.

Surely the Porn mags would cause the on Deck circle to get sticky, wouldn't it? Unless we're talking about female NG users frequenting the On Deck Circle, which would be 0.001% of the Entire NG population, by definition.

That's an intriguing option, but no, I meant... male NG users.

Let's just say that I'm sure we all know there are... various consistencies... various... viscosity levels. Sometimes more slippy... sometimes more sticky.... sometimes more runny... sometimes more chunky...

Now, the fresher it is, the slippier.... the older... the drier/stickier and less slippery, yes.... but all it takes is some water splashed on to REACTIVE THE SLIPPY.

So either that happened, or IT WAS FRESH DECK SLIPPERINESS.

You decide.

Only two months? Wow, then, you're getting off easy. Well, actually, the malls here had stuff up for two full months this last Christmas, but people had stuff up on their houses and in their yards from just past Halloween all the way until the end of January. Either way, anything longer than a month is too much.

MTE. There's stores that start their Christmas machine up in September now. They don't even WAIT for Halloween.

This Groundhog Day sounds absolutely ridiculous.

Some famous groundhog comes up out of his hole in the ground, and if he sees his shadow, it means that winter's over. If he doesn't, winter will last until July, right about the time everyone will start putting up their damn Christmas decorations next year.

Or maybe it's the other way around. Whatever.

That's the long and short of it.

But A) there's no commercialism for it, which you and Afro were decrying re: X-Mas....

And B) the holiday really grows on you if you've seen the movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107048/

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH............. SNAP.

I made a decent move up the board this week. At the very least, I should have secured my place on the list without any threats to knock me off!

I'm back and my partner Coop called and said they caught the guy who may've been responsible for what happened so I won't be able to find the "God of Gamblers", the suspect committed suicide before they can interrogate him.

the suspect committed suicide before they can interrogate him.

Hmm, Dream-of-Duke's been very quiet lately - 5 days and nothing, hardly any B/Ping either. He hasn't moved since I passed him for Saves... This means one of three things.

1) He's broken.

2) He's grounded... LOL

3) He's otherwise unavailable, possibly calling reference to the above quote.

For reference purposes, his current Experience total is 11,570.00 I'll keep tabs over the next few days. Not that I'm worried, but I've spent ages working towards that perfect putdown (Blanked him over passing him) and then he suddenly goes AWOL. It's almost coincidental.

I think he mentioned something about going back home to China for the hols, and therefore less internet time. It certainly did seem odd that he didn't come and brag about Leeds sneaking through to the League One playoff final...

who`s the general only?
and where`s the police general?

I asked Afro_Stud what happened and it seems he was having problems with his Internet Connection this week. His connection's fine now, however, but he's gonna wait until next Saturday to do the next update.

And no, Afro_Stud didn't need to recover from birthday celebrations since he doesn't actually celebrate his birthday. :o He treats his birthdays as just another day.

I've found a lead to where the "God of Gamblers" may've been at, hopefully it's the break I'll need.

Well, my best friend's dad looks like Gibbs, my best friend was informed that he himself looked like McGee (Check for yourself, he's on my YouTube video, Wonton Destruction - link in my sig.) and he's recently hired someone to work in his store, who looks more than a little like Abby.

Which season of CSI ended?
Season 8 is currently aired here. But the tv station who aires the series is so fucking annoying... there are only two episodes left, but they just don't show them! I haven't watched any new CSI episode for three weeks now, because that damn station just doesn't show them! >:(

You're on the same season that was just produced and run in America, yes. 8.

8 has a huge strike-caused gap in the middle, and thus may be a shortened season, too. You're almost up to current if there's really only 2 eps left, actually... but are you sure it's 2 eps till the end of season 8, or.... could it be 2 eps till the strike break? I dunno how they're dealing with the strike breaks all around the world with American TV seasons.... theoretically, they might just pretend it didn't happen and show you guys full seasons straight through without the 4 month wait we had to endure. But.... it depends on how distribution is timed over there, I suppose.

4 is what just ended here on Monday night.

Again, though... huge gap in the middle of season 4 thanks to the strike.

Weird that House's just-finished season is JUST starting to be shown in the UK while CSI's just-finished season is JUST about to end in Germany. #;-}>

BTW, Haggard... do you know if they censor CSI at all for German TV? I know US and UK videogames are censored, such as GTAIV... before release in Germany, due to the violence.

I know CSI doesn't usually show too much real-time violence, but sometimes they show "flashbacks" to the crime, and the bodies, even though calm and still.... are often quite disturbingly detailed in their wounds.

I never said that he did look like McGee, just that someone he works with says that he does. Maybe she doesn't watch NCIS, maybe she needs an eye test, I don't know.
