holy jesus i finally got 10,000 exp points (and got some elite guard 1st lieutenant earlier in the week). Yay I get to be in the next edition of the pentalist, and somewhere right in the 90's!
Congrats on both achievements, but ESPECIALLY on the 10k! And I'm not just saying it's more impressive because it's the one I haven't gotten yet and am aiming for and all. For MOST people who use the portal on a regular basis, it's the one that takes a HELL of a lot more total time to get though (though less actual time spent getting it... ahhh, the fun differences between NG's exp and b/p systems!).

Congrats rvyn. It won't be too long before I reach 10k myself. What really caught my eye was your experience rank. Breaking into the top 100 for experience has been one of my long term goals on this site.
It was never much of a goal of mine while I was concentrating on getting to EGSC... but ever since then? Yeah, top 100 would kick ass. Top 50 even moreso. But the latter might actually be impossible for me to do by 2015. The former I can do by 2008, I'd say. #;-}>

yea congrats rvyn. Just 51 deposits for Recon and 104 deposits for XwaynecoltX and you both will have 10k experience points.
124 here. It'll be this summer for me. And I seem to recall jonthomson estimating 10k by the end of the year for him. :::nods:::

Those bastards and their spamming of the BBS with posts trying to catch up to me. >: (
BonusStage really shot the hell up in the amount of posts since I was last here and NOT BANNED.
Well, you're back to being banned again. But in the "good news" department, he seems to be mostly posting with another account nowadays, not his main one. And joobie's banned half the time, so...

Hahaha, I'm still in the 40s on this list. I thought for sure, that going away for almost 2 weeks would have pushed me back in this list.
Whee? Better find a way other than posts to get up on it, though. #;-}>

Very nice, highest single-lister. Hmmm, got a couple of thousand to make to jump to #17... might make it by next update
Highest single-lister... Yes, I believe that title most recently belonged to MPA. And before him? It was alexsmolik's role. Wear it well!

It looks that way, but just keep in mind that your +6 is going to become increasinly difficult to even APPROACH in the future, let alone reach or top.
I don't plan on reaching the top (that would be impossible because ramagi won't stop).
I said reach OR top, not reach THE top. O_o As in... you won't be able to hit +6 again very easily and you won't be able to get an amount GREATER than +6 (like +7, for instance). I said nothing about getting to the top of the pentalist. o_O
I know that reaching a higher position will become more difficult as I approach the top but getting into the top50 isn't that difficult, especially if I keep a similar pace with my main account. Then I will slowly climb the positions until I get in top 20-30 with my current pace. It will take a while though but I have the needed patience. I don't expect another +6 but I expect another improvement on the next update.
Now, that's closer in topic to what I was getting at, yes. Um... yeah, just as long as you're prepared for the slow grind and the trudging progress... then you'll be ready for the boredom and not be expecting any +6s to come out of nowhere again. And... you'll be content with your spot on the list, though not COMPLETELY, of course.
I guess, in short, that... I'm just saying to have some patience, and the first step in having patience is anticipating the future realistically. But it looks like you're already doing that. I just wanted to make sure you weren't setting yourself up for disappointments, that's all.
......
Wow, I can't believe I squeezed all that replying in with 1000+ characters to spare (my double reply to Dogma in the VP list topic required a lot of pruning and editing, alas).
Anyway, this is my 8000th post, and...
[Regulars of my threads butt in]
"And you wanna leave your postcount there for a day or two, so you're done for the day... WE KNOW, WE KNOW!"
[/butt]
Um... yeah... exactly! So... 8000, baby! I'm quite happy about this (it's no secret that I don't love 7s very much. Especially 37s, but 7s of all sorts. So... out of the 7000s and into the 8000s = greatness. Plus 7 is closer to 5... 8, OTOH... is closer to 10. As in 10k.
And that is why I chose to post this here. Just 1240 exp from 10k exp... and just 2000 posts from 10k posts. I once wanted to hit both at once, that's becoming harder and harder to see happening, but oh well!
Have a great weekend, everyone! I had a fun time meeting Tom Fulp in Austin at SXSW and all, and I'd type more about it but I'm running out of room. Heh. GOODNIGHT, EVRAYBAHDAY!
