Nice list it kinda caught me off guard, but nice list like always...
Thanks. I think we've already been over why it caught you off guard on Retrogade's BBS. #;-}>

You're cutting the list short? Well bugger and damn. Just as I was narrowing in on 10,000 BP. I understand though, the last list I did took me one and a half hours and I was mentally exhausted afterwards. Hopefully I'll make it here one day, but if you cut it to Top 100 I probably never will...
Um... if I cut it at top 100 and leave the b/p together at 10,000 (which is certainly one of those three options), you'd DEFINITELY be in the list. With your current totals, I think you'd be in like the 70s or 80s of the list.
Add up your stats, man. And then look at the list update. You'll see that you've got enough of the non-10k+ stats to compete with anyone. You gotta remember that at least 20 to 30 people on the list are down near 10,000 stat points OVERALL because they only have 10k+ exp and hardly any b/p or posts or reviews. You're a well-rounded NGer, like jonthomson or myself, and thus you'll do FINE on this list (once you get on it).
Good luck... but if I do cut it how I THINK I'll cut it (to 10k+ saves and 10k+ blams separately) then it IS indeed gonna take more work from you to get on... but you can make 10,000 blams somehow someway sometime.

Kewl.
As always, thanks for the update, this list really is the most interesting one.
So says poxy and some others. #;-}>
It's certainly true that it's more multifaceted than any of my other lists... it just plain has way more data per line/person on the list, that's all. So yes, interesting indeed. But my being #3 on this, to me, isn't as cool as my being #22 on the VP list... thus, the VP list is still more prestigious to be high on in my mind.

I really should put some effort into getting 10000 b/p points, but im a lazy bastard these days. I would be at about #80 though, but I doubt ill get 10k anytime soon.
You're like 300 away from 10,000 b/p, as I noticed when I was updating. Like I just told Mr_James, it's not going to matter that much if I split blams and protects anyway, but... come on, that isn't far! bleh.

Awesome, i'm in the top 50 of the Quad List. This makes me wanna keep going.
Congrats, glad to hear it's motivating you!

I would say go for the splitting of the b/p points into two categories. In addition to toughening up the easiest way to get on the list, it would give some extra recognition to those who managed to get 10k saves, a task far more difficult than obtaining 10k blams.
That's what I'm leaning towards. Thanks for giving your own reasons.
As for getting 10k saves versus 10k blams, though... either one alone is going to get you onto the list... and neither one is going to be more lauded or noticeable on the list, methinks, so... but yes, I guess you just meant that anyone can scan the SAVES column of the list with that format and find out who's 5 digits in saves and give them extra props.
The top 50 saves list, however, already serves that function, so it's not my primary motivation or anything in choosing that format, if and when I do so.

Yes this i would agree with even if it kinda cut me out of the list in protects...
You're not on the list NOW due to protects, though, man. You're on it from b + p. However, if I did that split right now, you'd be off the list, sadly. But you're at 8,600+ blams. It won't take much more blamming to get you on the list with that format.
Or you could just get 10,000 reviews and be the first person to be on this list due to reviews over 10k. #;-}>
