I've got myself beat, Bahamut. Last time, if you recall, I mentioned I had to thank you for 6 straight updates I didn't catch-up during... the time before, it was 5 straight.

THIS TIME... it's TEN.

So... yeah. Thanks for 10 updates. O_O

This update is an hour later since Daylight saving has ended in Britain. Not sure when it happens for the Americans, but I'm going by my time and I started pulling the stats at 8:30PM.

I think it was 1 week later for us. We're starting to experiment with ending it one week later and starting it three weeks earlier (or something like that), these past two years. MOAR SUNLIGHT IN TEH P.M. FTWs.

One last thing, congrats to Coop on reaching the top 50 B/P! He's been aiming to get there for a long time now and he's finally there!

On American television, we get a whole week of Halloween. Not that every single show does a Halloween ep every season, but... most do, and since they're usually on on their regular nights that week as it's nothing super-schedule changing like Thanksgiving and Christmas are... boom, a week of Halloween on TV, at least.

Yeah, gfoxclock had 8 blams one day recently, I was totally shocked. Then I realised "oh wait, this used to happen all the time on my main, I just never noticed too much because I was active in both blamming and saving".... but because I only blam with gfoxclock while I only save with gfoxcook, and since I get 1 or 2 saves every week with -clock, it was stunning to see 8 at once on a day I hadn't done any voting beyond depositing.

Ouch. Rem indeed has little time to enjoy his spoils of war. On the plus side, courtday's passage of me was cancelled out by my getting back in front of Bonus, which is actually impressive since he's clearly getting points about as much as me, as of late. WOWZA. 2 save cushion!

In one of the posts in that thread, you seemed to suggest that it was, but not for explosions, and thus... I was screwed. GEE THANKS.

gfox likes to talk about old updates he didn't comment on, but that's what he gets for heavy dosage on Steam. XD

I talked about old updates in list threads I frequent way before I'd even heard of Steam, let alone started using it this year. #;-}>

Fun Fact: I played some TF2 matches with gfox yesterday. It was awesome! :D

AND AGAIN TODAY. Just a couple hours after your above post, it seems.

However, this ruined my goal, which was to get 7,000 Blams with 8,000 Saves. Whatever, the more, the better.

It's problems like this that tell me to be careful when I get close to my final B/P goals. I'd hate to go over 40000 blams or 37777 saves!

Indeed. Good thing cleared flags don't tend to produce saves. I know technically they can, but ever since the portal mod temporary situation was axed, it's pretty rare for Wade to manually unflag something and allow protection points to all who tried to save it before it was wrongly flagged, right? At least, it used to be.

I don't think gfoxcook got any saves when gfoxclock got the 8 blams recently. But anyway, I'll be approaching my retirement goal very slowly as well, even though it's just a save goal, and I don't have to worry about overshooting on blams, which is far more likely.

You might well be wrong there, I'm back home for Christmas as of today, and hence there will be little time for B/P. On top of that I'm at my girlfriends from the 28th Dec to the 13th Jan, and I'll have no connection at all during that period, so if you haven't caught me by then you certainly will do.

Well, it would be a nice Xmas present, but I think that my pace might take a small hit over the holiday, as on Sunday I've been conscipted for a 450 mile round trip to Avebury, which is going to be completely boring for me.

The US education system isn't much better. I will almost bet that when my kids and I move to Vancouver they will both be put back a grade. Vancouver is one of the top 4 school districts in the world (the US didn't even fall in the top 100).

I have to admit that it's nice to see that I'm still managing to get about 4 or so ranks per week to my name despite not being nearly as active on the portal as I used to be this time last year or so, yesterday notwithstanding in which I got about 3 days worth. Methinks, though, it'll be quite some time before anyone in the top 200 will need to worry about me chasing after them.

I've been in hiding for the last two weeks, what happened is that I saved a woman from couple of muggers and after she ask me who I am I told her that I just got lost and that I needed a place to stay. She let me into her house for a while to return the favor, the pink hair girl isn't the only anime character that have somehow end up in our universe, that woman is Frau Bow.

I didn't bother to ask her.

Looks like I have some heavy pressure coming up on me. My pace is going to stay pretty low for the rest of December as I have interviews, holiday festivities, and just numerous things that need to be addressed while I am home. I have not gained a rank in over two weeks due to the big gap that existed but I will finally be gaining a rank or two due to inactivity, assuming I can hold off my competition.

I couldn't agree more. For Christmas and New Year, I'd rather spend my time with my family and friends than to collect B/P from the portal. I may have had my Christmas spirit torn apart by my dad, but that doesn't mean I don't want to see others in my family for Christmas and the new year.

It is impossible to disagree with this. Sorry to hear about your father but even when life gets difficult, it is important to realize how much you have. You (and I) are fortunate that we have families but even if you do not, go donate your time to charity or help those who are less fortunate then yourself. The Christmas spirit should last all year-round.

Ooo 78.4 avg. KDOG is in my league and so is Mrputter. Probably be a bit busy with family though during the next two weeks or so.

All is well.

Still going strong yoshi. Maybe we will meet again one day.

Fair enough. And may I give you a suggestion? Do bi-weekly updates during this time. I mean, not everyone will be around, including myself. So why keep updating every week?

I think I'll be fine, but I'm saying this now just incase and to prevent anyone from going "WAAAAAAAAH WHY HASN'T BAHAMUT DONE THE UPDATE YET?!?!" right here.

Yeah, hope it doesn't happen.

UPDATE 14th December 2008

What a lame pace! But that's due to my ISP problems. They were doing their regular maintenance, and they sorta "extended" it. But's it's back now, much better than before. I could barely deposit! But, luckily, I didn't miss any deposits. DID YOU HEAR THAT, CORKY?? =P

It's a shame you never got round to finishing that blog. I was really looking forward to it. If you wish to drop it, that's fine. Also, sorry to hear about your ISP problems. :( I hope everything will be sorted soon.

Yeah, it's really shameful: I promised it, then I delayed, delayed, delayed... and it became obsolete, so I had to give it up.

As for the ISP problems... they got fixed, but with a plus! Now our connection is 1 Megabyte, not 600kb anymore. This is great, it's much better than before.

I'll write something about it, as soon as someone posts anything in my current blog. I mean, blog #24 (the gay number) can't go without a single comment, right? =P

Seems like I have a lot of catch-up to do in the other threads. I won't make a massive catch-up here because... why talking about old updates, when Bahamut presents us with a brand new one? =)

gfox likes to talk about old updates he didn't comment on, but that's what he gets for heavy dosage on Steam. XD

I doing this on the Regulars lounge, I have three updates to comment on. That's around... 6 pages of long posts. And I'm only halfway there, but, then again, I'm a lazy poster. =(

Fun Fact: I played some TF2 matches with gfox yesterday. It was awesome! :D

Greeeeat! I wish I had Steam so I could play it, but I'll only get it when I get a new computer. Nothing against this one, it's pretty good... but it's starting to have those "old computer problems". ~6 years and still running!

However, this ruined my goal, which was to get 7,000 Blams with 8,000 Saves. Whatever, the more, the better.

It's problems like this that tell me to be careful when I get close to my final B/P goals. I'd hate to go over 40000 blams or 37777 saves!

So that's your goal on B/P? I mean... when you reach that.... you'll just stop?

Yes! I finally entered the top 150. :)

Awesome!

Anyway, I am again very happy with my pace. Sunday helped me a lot though, I already got over 80 B/P today!

That's more than I got in a whole week! =O

HUZZAH!

So... yeah. Thanks for 10 updates. O_O

Thanks for the kind words and recognition. I'm really enjoying the time here at Newgrounds, and look forward to being SC by Oct 2009. I've also asked about joining the Elite Guard - my posting is a little light, but I'm catching up. Now that I have 15MB access both at the home office and the main office, I can really go through the Portal much quicker, and at pretty much any time. A little here, a little there, and abandoning sleep is the key to 70+ days.

Looking forward to some friendly competition - it's good for keeping us on our toes.

Take care, all - I'm sure there'll be more to come!

Are you serious? October '09? This is... MADNESS! But I wouldn't doubt it if you keep your current pace.

I've also asked about joining the Elite Guard - my posting is a little light, but I'm catching up.

Nice, I'm a member there too. And yeah, you only have 9 posts which is kinda rare to happen to someone who is level 19.

Now that I have 15MB access both at the home office and the main office, I can really go through the Portal much quicker, and at pretty much any time.

And I thought my 1MB connection was great... =P

Wait, abandoning sleep? That's too much dedication in my opinion. I wouldn't trade my sleep for a night on Newgrounds, only for a very special reason, like Clock Day.

Looking forward to some friendly competition - it's good for keeping us on our toes.

Well, it's going to be hard for me to catch-up with you, but we have some tough competitors here!

Also, I realised that B/Ping on my father's laptop is a challenge. No middle button click for a new tab, Internet Explorer's incredibly fast tab opening... It's just amazing.

My internet connection was off for the whole day yesterday, now my pace is going to take a bit hit. >:(

Oh Corky, this b/p flirting between us is dangerous business. Now I'm back into it a bit, it shouldn't be long before I pass you again and then cadreamer.

Well like you said before we aren't chums anymore. As you passed me up again. I don't know what your problem is. First you say we can't be friends, you pass me up in B/P, and then you piss cadreamer off because you can't do some math. God, what a terrible person you are. From this day on I'm not talking to you anymore. =P

Haha. Since obviously all of that was a joke I have a following question. Why do some people take the internet so serious and get pissed off at a simple math misunderstanding? Oh well, some people are just a little more friendlier than others I guess.

I'm terrified to see my B/P pace this update though. D: Somewhere around 20-30 give or take a few probably.

Dakka, it is the holliday season! Have fun with your family and get away from your laptop, lol!
Only NG geeks like me would spend the holliday at the table.

Why do you find the need to be a troll with my posts?? Maybe if you read further in the thread you would SEE where I apologized about being cranky that morning....since this is the second time I've had to point that apology out maybe you will actually see it this time.

FOR THE RECORD ONCE AGAIN: I'M SORRY FOR BEING CRANKY THAT MORNING!

BTW. You wouldn't survive a day walking in my shoes. SO BACK OFF.

I want you to read this over. And then I want you to read over your posts on the last page of your posts that you have made. You troll in somewhere around 5 of your posts. What for? Every single time I made a post you trolled me and now that I made a little post like this you get offended and call me a troll? It just seems like every time someone gets close to passing you for some reason you get bitchy about it. I mean come on it's a website. You may say that you don't care, but again the proof is in your posts. Every time someone is about to pass you or threatens to pass you up you tell them to get off of newgrounds and get a life. Ha, the person that B/P's while at work is telling other people to get a life? Perhaps you should stop B/Ping at work and talk to your coworkers a little bit more. It seems like you have forgotten how to socialize with people.

And yes I saw that you apologized. And that makes it ok to just jump down people's throats all of the time? That's nice to know. Perhaps I will try and use that excuse sometime. I wonder how your boss would react if you messed up on an entire (whatever you do) at work and all you said was, "Sorry, I was cranky."? I'm sure that would make it better.

/My of my fun for the day. <3

It's been two months since I has in a conversation which has ANYTHING to do with you. When I asked you to stay away from me and blocked you from sending PM's I figured you had gotten the point.

Every time someone is about to pass you or threatens to pass you up you tell them to get off of newgrounds and get a life. Ha, the person that B/P's while at work is telling other people to get a life?

Wow. Interpretation goes a long way. I don't see anywhere in my posts where I told anyone to get a life.

My fun for the day. <3

Thank you so much for admitting to flaming me.

I will say it here for a second time....as I have asked you in the past. BACK OFF!

I surely hope that both of you are lying about your ages (but sadly I believe that they are accurate). I can not believe that I am watching two adults argue about about blams, protections, and basic math issues on the Internet. I am sure that you are both above that.
