I had a quick flick through and there's definitely people there that belong in the top 100. I'll do that (oops, just hit control there and opened up a new tab) before running a list update. Makes things more complete. I'll probably scan this evening, and then update probably tomorrow evening, depending on workload. My priorities right now are:

yeh, that list is totally friggin kick ass...
im pretty high up for the amount of reviews i have!!

list of things that DONT involve making an update...

Catch up later.

i have a really good idea!!
update your little to do list....

a) make a top reviewers list update
b) do washing
c) see (a)
d) go bowling

I have been so busy so reviewing has just been something else that has got really hard to do so I have slowed way down on it. But maybe one week end I will through in acouple I dunno lol. Later You All.

Oh yeah M-A-R-C-U-S I dont know if you noticed but I quit the NGDD.

sad to see you go, but eh, when life calls...

\just writ my first review in 3 days!! hahaha.

oh now come on WTF!?!!?
not a single post in the last 25+ hours???
thats just pathetic....

lol dont worry Marcus ive only done about 10 reviews in the last few days, tis pathetic :(.

but wohooo finally at 734 posts! Higher than the reviewer -Axe- at number 50, cos i checked his profile and he is still at 733 reviews =D

could this be the moment ive been waiting for?
Could i finally even be CLOSE to being top 50? I hope!

I'm in the process of running an update, should take me an hour or two to get it posted. So if you want to grab a few more reviews, do it now...

Haha dont worry i will :)

Top 100 Known Reviewers at 1607 UTC, 23/10/2004

Commentary:

Hello to - Umsutfeersme, tabitha123, Bila, TvP
Goodbye to - Dredg, Kornfreaker, Mp3Durahell, Red_Faction
Threatening (within 25 reviews and gaining places) - nobody
Top climber is Tiger_Chick (+36).

The "Sox win the pennant! Sox win the pennant!" edition

Yeah. What I've done is taken SK's full list for the RRR thing, shoved it into Excel, removed who I already had and appended the rest. As a result there's a couple of new finds, which take the ENTIRE top 100 to over 500 for the first time. It's also increased the magic number to 292. How long we'll have to wait for 300, I don't know.

Top quarter saw Kwas hit 5000, j00b hit 3000 and not much else. Bezman returned for the first time since August.

Second quarter saw Mizz_caramba hit the top 40, and Tiger_Chick made it.

Third quarter only had Gamecubicle making a decent move.

Fourth quarter had some shakeups. TvP returned to the list after a 1 update hiatus, Bila's now on after overcoming that ban, and we have two new finds as well making the list, Umsutfeersme, who's been on NG for two years apparently, and despite being in the EG and making a fair few BBS posts has escaped detection, and tabitha123, who's not got a single blam point or post and is hence fairly anonymous. Out go Dredg, who's been on the list since detection in February, Kornfreaker (or whatever he's called nowadays), who's been in the bottom quarter since the list's inception, Mp3Durahell, who's been on for just a couple of updates, and Red_Faction, detected over a year ago who's dropped from #50.

Notable non-list performance of the week goes to ramagi, going from not being mentioned in my sweep for having <160 reviews to over 400, and moron of the week goes to mwazzap, who had all his posts and reviews deleted. Besides him, five other people dropped from more than 160 to less, and hence were culled from the list.

153 people have 400 reviews now, the top 200 requires over 350, 276 people have 300, the top 300 requires 288, 223 is needed for the top 500 and 953 people are on the tracking sheet.

Congrats to:
Bila - 500 reviews (98th)
TvP - 500 reviews (97th)
DavrilChorster - 500 reviews (96th)
Tiger_Chick - 600 reviews (67th)
Tiger_Chick - 700 reviews (54th)
Mizz_caramba - 800 reviews (40th)
Marcus - 2600 reviews (7th)
j00bie - 3000 reviews (6th)
cyberdevil - 3200 reviews (5th)
cyberdevil - 3400 reviews (5th)
Kwas - 5000 reviews (2nd)

Well, I've got one running right now, but it might be doomed in the near future. The update from last Sunday is here: http://ngtlbp.idohost.com/rrr-101804.html If you wait about 4 or 5 hours, I'll be posting the next update. I slept way too much last night, so I'll be up a little late tonight; thus, if all goes well, a quick Sunday update.

cool cool. hmm, atm im 3rd on NG for responses... i'll have to try and get another 130 to beat KWAS! hahaha.
also, please dont get rid of the RRR Shat!!! just like, do it for the top 50 reviewers or something!
eh, ill have a look see when you do the next update. (should be real soon, no?)

Haha I only have 17 responses :P isnt it by luck a bit who has the most? because I guess it soemtimes depends on the author you are reviewing because some are too lazy to ever respond.

seventeen?
sorry but....
MUAHAHhaHAHAHAHAHAHAHH!!!!! *oodles more laughter* heheheh.
i have 825 atm... hehe.
and its not just because of luck that you get it... think about it.
you are an author of a flash, that gets say a score of 2/5... so its just decent.
theres a review like this:
'that wasnt too bad... but it could have been better'
and one like this:
'i think that was decent. but work could be used in the following areas: *insert helpful comment(S!) here*.'
now, which one would you be more inclined to respond to?
exactly, the review made by me...
i mean .... i mean, the review made by the helpful guy! yeh... thats it.......

Greetings children, it seems as if I remain unchanged on this list, but I am just cruising through the Retrogade reviews list :).
Yay for me and congrats to people and all of that standard stuff I have to type every update.

reviewing photoshops is so much easier then reviewing flash.

Plus, the review box and the photoshop are on the same page! no extra window pop-up!

Of course it's in my sig. Both my lists are. pentalist... voting power. Boom and boom.

yeh, you know how SK gave me that 'site', or URL where you type in a users ID number to get their responses??
well, i havent used it yet, so i dont know if its a site or not :P lol.

Seeing someone's responses? That's not another "site," it's just a simple URL within NG. Mine is:

http://www.newgrounds.com/port...er_id=7941&has_responses=Y

Just replace 7941 with whichever user ID# you want to use.

Save As options in Paint for Windows 98 SE:

monochrome bitmap (*.bmp;*.dib)
16 color bitmap (*.bmp;*.dib)
256 color bitmap (*.bmp;*.dib)
24-bit bitmap (*.bmp;*.dib)
JPEG filter (*.jpg;*.jpeg)
GIF filter (*.gif)

Silly SK.

And as to the rest of you... you peoples with your Paint+Flash or your Fireworks methods... so so silly.

Use simple programs like PaintShopPro, VuePrintPro, or irfanview. I had a shareware VuePrint that I registered back in like 1996, and it's what I still use to this day for most simple screenshots. All I have to do is alt-prntscrn to snapshot my profile, for example, ctrl-V into VuePrintPro... and hit V to bring up the save dialog, type filename, hit enter.

That's it. And if I want to crop at all, I just drag a box over the area I want to keep.

Um... ShittyKitty doesn't need the info posted here to make the list. His program pulls responses and reviews automatically. JSYK. He's got teh superior methods compared to me and SeizureDog.
