I think I am getting about 75 a day.
Ranked 101 as of now, once they update all that info I think I will probably be about 99.

Well, nice job on getting to the General ranks - are you still going to be doing an update sometime soon? No problem if you're not, just wondering if you were waiting for the rank up or something.

Will be top 80 tomorrow, passed innphernoe earlier. Unless someone passes me. Which would be annoying.

I managed to get lots of Blams and Saves the last days, I just need to get kospas ;)

Yes, soon. This weekend actually. My original target was actually either this coming weekend, or after I ranked, whichever came later, or the following Tuesday as an absolute endmark. I misspoke when I said the 16th as I meant the 23rd, so apologies to anyone who has been waiting for me to get with it and post. From the 11th "but with being around both this and next weekend" ... obviously just looked at the wrong week on the calendar when I picked out the Tuesday target for the latest. Again, apologies, but my schedule for the week is pretty tight with only small bits to spare that I'm wasting on voting. Yes, alex, I know you'd prefer I work on the list, tough =P

Not keeping track of how many you get every day is much more relaxing. =]

btw just saw my profile:

BLAMS: Involved in the termination of 10,291 crappy entries.
SAVES: Assisted in the protection of 5,291 quality entries.

i'm officially getting 2 times more blams then saves. =[

I was a great saver once, had about 3000 saves and just about 1800 blams....times have changed:

Involved in the termination of 4,971 crappy entries.
SAVES: Assisted in the protection of 3,652 quality entries.

You're probably about a week (maybe two if you're lucky) off from doubling. Unfortunately, it looks like an inevitability instead of something you can stave off entirely. It's been a while since I consistently got over 100/day, but I'm noticing a lot more crap than I remember seeing. I really expected this weekend to catch up on a lot of saves, but my B2S% has actually increased by 6% since gfox' last update. 6%!!! 6% change in only 2 weeks with the totals we have is fucking impossible to get. Just can't win ... the crap makers still resubmit over and over and the good artists don't submit as much as they used to ~sigh~ Hopefully we'll have more good submissions come through today and this weekend, but I not holding my breath.

Hell! Dude, what are you talking about? I mean, I never submit any flash of mine at the moment because the chance for an award is just not there...everything is blue out there in the portal :(

Cool, cool. Easy mistake to make I guess, not a problem. Will help as by then I'll be past guinevir, drimarki, darkjaymz and so on who are inactive just above me.

As far as my blam-save percentage goes, I'd say it's been slowly increasing. Let's look through some screenies and work stuff out:

blams - saves - b/s% - comments
1000 - 500 - 200% (P)
1111 - 536 - 207.3% (1111 blams)
1428 - 572 - 249.7% (PFC)
1583 - 583 - 271.5% (difference 1000 for the first time)
2000 - 727 - 275.1% (2000 blams)
2122 - 780 - 272.1% (b/p count same as experience)
2189 - 811 - 269.9% (S)
2787 - 1213 - 229.8% (SS)
3000 - 1356 - 221.2% (3000 blams)
3837 - 1718 - 223.3% (5555 points)
4158 - 1842 - 225.7% (MS)
4871 - 2129 - 228.8% (SM)
5117 - 2229 - 229.6% (current)

Yeah, I was right. If we ignore that spell in between Private First Class and Staff Sergeant (which was due to lots of blamming from not having broadband, then lots of saving from having it), my b/s% is slowly going up.

Right now there are 42 most recent that are not UJ, going back to 21 hours ago. That's 2 saves per hour over a time frame that includes the busiest submission times for NG, and that is nothing. The one in 50 should be more like 10 or 11pm, not 6:38pm.

First off, it's Wednesday. It's a new NG week, so a new chance for weekly awards, so a lot of the regulars are going to pop in a new flash today. Second, it's St. P's so some quality, holiday related flash are going to come through as well. This is more than we normally get and it's still bad.

pantherstrider is one place in front of you, then you've got a clear run to Praporshchik. Above that I don't know.

Thanks for the info, looks like i'm under 100 from him. He hasn't posted in over a year so I'm assuming/hoping he's not b/p'ing. I'm really looking forward to hitting Praporschik late late tonight or early tomorrow. I'm also glad i'll hit Prap at the beginning of a weekend so I can dig into it pretty far by Monday. 1500 per rank now might test my patience a time or two by the time I hit Colonel.

It's not a good feeling to have so many guys in your back :I Well, I must not obey

LiveCorpse is number 90, though he changed his name to Crushed72 for some reason...

Crushed72? Okaaay...
Anyway, he's over 200 points in front of me. Looks like I might have to wake up at 4 in the morning again just to get those 20 point boosts in order to catch up. Hopefully whoever's 91 isn't too far away from me.

4 in the morning just for that? Man, I would never do that. It crazy when B/P'ing rules over someones life. It's not like your getting payed.

Hush!! Popped in to give a quick update and I see this nonsense :-P~~~~

Anyway, been running through the 532 people I already had since 5:30 this morning. Just shy of 7 hours later, I'm through them. Next stage, after I get some food ooo and maybe a nap too, is to go through the threads trying to find some new folks, after which I get to format all this crap for posting.

More than likely I'm going to have to dust off one of my alts (probably the one with no profile ;-) ) to get the entire set of messages up. I can almost guarantee that with 598 Elite Guards I'm going to run out of posts before I run out of list. Once I start posting them tonight please do not post until I get the last list up (Police Captains and Lieutenants). Been a while since I did this and I'd just as soon make it look nice lol

well, jon's up to #76, but you're at #81... looks like that good luck came through for him. Next time, I wouldn't wish him any if I were you. #;-}> Well, unless you don't mind him passing you a third time, that is.

He did say "as much." It's not a matter of there being NO good flashes around... and yes, indeed, the protected flashes in the most recent column might be more green and blue than EVER... but do you know what that means?

That means that there aren't enough 1.60-3.00 range flashes getting through to fill in the space BETWEEN those green and blue flashes at the top.

We used to get a good 40-50 new protected movies per day... it's down to around 20-25. Even if 15 of those movies are 4.00+, that doesn't mean there's a LOT of good movies getting submitted... alas alas alas.

i will start checking the boards more often once school starts, i have been exausted just about from all the partying in spring break. so i been wolfin along at like 75 points a day instead of the usual really high number. maby less, ok. i will get on it eventually. im still keeping the list of all my gains.

Haha! Like 75 a day isn't high... No wonder I can't keep up with all the people passing me lately...

Quick update for those waiting ... the way I opted to do the list today is going to have a significant imapct on the totals you see. At 5:30AM I pulled ramagi's stats and got to d34mon by 8:20. The real issue I had was with people shifting from the Captain's page to the EG page, as I use different formats, so couldn't simply C&P them. Finishing off the last of the 532 took until 11:45, plus some time to toss names at gfox for the VP list. Picked back up at 5:45pm going through threads VP, Top Protect, Top Blam, Top Post, Top Review, Trifecta, Top Exp, and this one to try and fill in as many blanks as possible. Let me just say ... WE are one list happy crew. Going through 6 months of posts in Level up is just going to have to wait.

As you can see, well over 12 hours elapsed since the start of stat pull, so listed BP totals are going to be even more out of synch with rank listing than you've gotten used to. I've just finished going through the threads and will take ~two hours to sort and format for posting. Rank changes always throw my formulae off for posting and with this much time some of the changes are huge (+/- 500 ranks).

Quick update is that there are 598 Elite Guards, up from 254. 90 moved up from my Capt/Lt list and managed to find 29 more from the threads. No surprise, there's going to be a lot of gaps. There are 393 Captains, only 136 of whom I know. 32 new people added to the Capt/Lt list.

pssst ... hey SuperDragon ... remember this conversation? LOL

Given the number of gaps you are prediciting at this point, I think we should all start taking bets regarding the number of "hey why aren't I on this list/add me to the list" posts a big whopping full update generates. I guess around 30 or so.

Thanks for taking the time to make an update of your big list after all this time. Its an admirable effort.
