Sorry, I don't congrat people that reach 3500 blams. 1000 blams, 2000 blams and cool numbers like 2222 I will congrat. Also, 2500 and 7500 are numbers that I will congrat people for whatever. So sorry about that.

I just reached "Elite Guard Private First Class"!

Thankyou and goodnight!

I really can't remember when that happened to me (bad memory).

But when I posted that I got 3500+ blams, only 1 person came out to congratulated me.

We all have the ability to vote. The difference is how we use it.

I even couldn't find my name on Bahamut7 and -Mazza-'s long lists.

The bastards! Forget about it Dream_of_Duke. Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

So please, guys! If you see me hitting 3500 blams, give me some claps. Thank you.

Congrats on reaching 3,500 blams DoD! Climbing the ranks on the blam/protect list is the easy part. Staying there is a constant endeavor.

Well, we go way back, when somebody decided to put in some mayor stat topics in this forum. This particular thread, is a lounge, which makes some certain people talk about stuff that non wi/ht-ish. It's also the only thread we're you can brag about your stats.

Congrats to everyone who's done anything worthy of teh congratting and who wishes to BE congratted in the first place, especially to X on the 5x10k (WOO HOO, a true pentalister!) and to MPA on the 60k b/p (though it bit that it didn't happen at 4:35 AM ET when it woulda been that way on the top 50... 60,065 wasn't quite as cool) and to Bonus for the 50k total pentapoints (why didn't you stop there, man?

To level 20? Thanks to HT's missed deposit in June, my estimated date of level20ness has been bumped up from January 2nd 2006 to January 1st 2006. To me, that doesn't seem too bad. It's certainly not as long as level 23->24 is going to last for me (the only level I'm not looking forward to is 23, but it's worth waiting through to get to 24 and 25, my fave of the levels from 20 to 30).

Thank you! It's nice to be at level 19 with fine people like yerself, my man. :::nods:::

o_0 Dude, less important? It's almost twice what we'd need to get EGSC ... that's a HUGE achievement if you want my opinion, congrats!

Yeah, but blamcounts don't interest me anymore. Well, except the one I plan to retire on. But thanks for teh 34k congrats! #;-}>

And ... why not quiting b/ping completely? May be when you'll realize it leaves you five hour of free time per day you'll decide to use that time in a more significative way, like ... writing a book or finding a cure to cancer. 'Cause if any of you guys spent as much time and efforts in personal projects as you do in b/ping, you could do GREAT things hehe!

Dude, I don't spend five hours on b/ping anymore. Haven't since I started my current job in June. Don't have the time.

I spend maybe one hour getting b/p on weekday evenings now. Sometimes less, sometimes a bit more.

Anywho, that's all for now.

1) Wi/Ht? voting is going to start soon, so if you're a member and haven't seen my e-mail OR my post about it, please go to the memberlist topic (page 25) and check it out, okay?

2) I will be making a new topic (here in Wi/Ht?) tomorrow. Stay tuned!

3) Pentalist update as usual. This Sunday's... 7/17 (nifty!)... is going to be teh LEGENDARY update for so many reasons at once. MPA, Bonus, X, and myself have particularly awesome things happening to us on it. Especially X, of course. #;-}>

That is all!

Yeah I've noticed. _lightning_ has been battling punisher1 for control of the 99th spot for the past while. He was ranked 99th a day or two ago. With equal experience it all comes down to who deposits first.

If they both deposit before the 4:45 am update, the lowest ID would get the 99th rank. :)

Right?

I believe that's the way the system works EK. In the event of a tie the user with the earlier sign-up date (lowest ID number) would receive the higher ranking.

Mediocre night on the portal but the submissions have been easy to judge.

The lower id# does receive the better ranking (lower number, higher ranking, yadda yadda) in his/her/its PROFILE, yes.

But as we've all seen in the past month or so (ever since humantarget + Shrapnel missed a deposit on June 11th), the times when HT doesn't deposit before 4:35 AM (that's the time its based on, BTW, not 4:45. Some stuff updates around 4:30 AM, some around 4:45, but the actual exp/b/p values that the profile rankings are based upon are pulled at 4:35 AM, I believe)....

Anyway, to just restate all that without the parenthetical statements making it hard to read:

As we've all seen in the past month or so, the times when HT doesn't deposit before the profile ranking update time... but Pimp does... lead to HT remaining #1 in his profile due to the profile id# tiebreaker... and Pimp remaining at #2...

BUT... at the same time, the top 50 exp list is stupid and does it the opposite way by mistake (or else it's giving the tie to Pimp for being the one who's deposited that day and punishing HT for not depositing yet... I'm not sure which is the reason.... but it's one of those two, there's no other options).

It seems that way although I'm greatly confused why you'd want to be on speaking terms with someone that's acted like a major asshole towards you.

Hey RC, remmember how you said you can ask Wade for me about submitting my movie? Well I sent him the email with all the details on the 4th, which means 13 days ago :o

I don't hold grudges. I also give people the benefit of the doubt when it comes to conflicts. I don't attack my friends. And, I never give up.

We've had too many good times, and cool ass conversations to just throw it away on some harsh words that I might have wanted to say.

If I've done anything wrong, I'm sorry.

Carmel, if you need anything, then send it to my e-mail, and I'll take care of it. I can speak to Wade in chat, so I'm sure I can get things rolling much faster than if you send an e-mail to him.

On the contrary Red, you did nothing wrong. I took things a bit too seriously (and personally) during the last election so I lashed out at the first sign of conflict. I should be apologizing to you for my attitude and stubbornness. It was uncalled for and I'm sorry.
