Thank you for the roster NEVR you got alot of b/p/. So how do you get so much points?, do you sit by the portal all day?. I remember this one user who spend 14 hours ,on it thats crazy. I check now and then but i dont spend all day, so thats why i guess my b/p slow. Obviously i deposit and i do look at new flashes, its so slow geting to the next badge. Mine over 300 points. My strong points is the abusive review. Well i cant belive its nearly clockday, i remmber lasy year. Its only seems lke yesterday the years gone so fast. Salutes!

A slacking week here. Before, about 3 used to get in the top 5 in the week. Now all four are slacking. MT managed to pass Mendou, but they weren't very far from each other, anyway. aldlv is falling behind, he needs to catch up otherwise he will never get to the top.

I am on some club... so, i am getting really late to my house

LOL, maybe 6 months ago I'd have the time to do that, but these days I just go on NG between doing everything else that has to be sorted out in my life. Evenings usually yield a bit more time if I'm at home, too, but ultimately it's pretty rare that I'll get a whole day to dedicate to NG. Even if I did, I'd need some breaks. Spending a whole day doing one thing is frankly a bit much for me. ;P

I remember this one user who spend 14 hours ,on it thats crazy. I check now and then but i dont spend all day, so thats why i guess my b/p slow.

I've found that 1 check per hour can often be enough, so long as you vote an all the under judgment submissions available when you're doing a check.

Obviously i deposit and i do look at new flashes, its so slow geting to the next badge. Mine over 300 points.

I still have around 350 to get to my next badge, which should take me a week, or just over, depending on my pace. The gap between each badge for me is 2,000 B/P, which takes a while.

After getting the next 350 points and hitting my next rank, I'll be on the last 2,000 point gap, and after that I'll be onto the 4,500 gap to Supreme Commander. That'll be a massive one to get through.

LOL. I've had months on end of getting no B/P constantly. This was before I joined the EGB, of course. Once I got into the more competitive, rank-orientated environment, I was more motivated.

Welcome to the Barracks! I'm the Barracks Recruitment Officer, Supreme Commander Slash Firestorm. It's my job to examine new prospective recruits and see if they've got what it takes to join the EGB.

Oh thanks; BTW, by reading the roster I think I'm going to be on top gainers on some weeks muahaha.

It's a LOL to see 323 being the highest gain for the week. especially when last week, I was the LOWEST on the top 5 gainers list with a weekly gain of 410.

I've been going through some things in my life right now and honestly b/p is just the least of my prioritys for now. I recall me stopping for a bit last year. Looks like it's about to happen again. Might take a while but I'll get back into the mood eventually.

But for now, I'm pretty much finished.

Fair enough. I felt like that once, and I think a fair few people are feeling the same as you now. Josh has packed it in for the time being -- and who can blame him after 20 weeks (and even more than that before he joined the EGB) of insane pace.

To be fair to you, at least you're stopping on your favourite rank.

If I spent more time in the portal getting points, I might gain more in my rank, lol. I dunno what I've been doing most of the week other than buying a new keyboard. Which now helps me type things better although it sounds somewhat noisy to me.

Notice how many Edible Castle episods have been submitted this week? It's kind of intresting, lol. Need to watch number 6, not seen it yet.

P-I-N has been accepted into the Barracks, under the condition that he works to improve posting/review length and quality (more so posting than reviewing, but both are important). We expect more than one-liners in here, so as long as you keep that in mind, you're in.

First thing that you should do is register at the Barracks forums, so I can validate you and allow you full access.

Welcome to the Barracks! I'm the Barracks Recruitment Officer, Supreme Commander Slash Firestorm. It's my job to examine new prospective recruits and see if they've got what it takes to join the EGB.

Let me explain how the recruitment process works.

Currently you are in "Standby Status" while your case is considered. During this process, me and the other Barracks members will take a look at your record---posting quality, review history/quality, flash record, etc---and see if there are any problems.

Don't worry, we're not too strict about these things; we just want to make sure that you have a decent posting record (not too many one-liners and no flaming/spamming), don't make abusive reviews or rulebreaking flash, etc..

After a period of discussion amongst the Barracks members, I (or my superiors) will make the final call. Assuming that no objections are raised, this Standby Status should only last approximately 24 hours. I will PM you with the final verdict.

Barracks members can go to the appropriate discussion thread to converse/vote on the recruit. Remember that you gotta be logged in to view/post/vote, and speak now or forever hold your peace.


Slash's call

was absorbed

by the darkness.

The reason I wanted my named changed for awhile was because people would mistake Corky52 and Corky-D all of the time. Especially when we got in one of the same clubs and someone replied to his post and called him Corey. Of course I'm Corey and it was just a big mess for awhile. I guess I got use to it though and seeing anything other then Corky52 would just be weird.

If your right lung is in good condition though... might be a good deal for me.
