Resistance is futile.
I did enjoy the update.
I hope you enjoyed your nap.
I chilled out for a while yesterday.
That was quite poetic!
I thank you for your kind words.
My nap was indeed nice.
How went your chilling out?

Heh, yeah, but 10K XP is going to take ages - I need more than two years until I'll get there. Considering I currently have 2110 XP but 2981 saves, I'd say it's more likely that I'll get double-listed for saves first (an ad hoc extrapolation says it'll take around 490 days for me to achieve 10K saves, but that number should be taken with a grain of salt at least).
10k exp takes the same amount of days for everyone (unlike reaching certain exp levels, which keep getting further and further apart), so... the only reason to complain is if you're missing deposits. Sure, it'll take more than two years, but is that really that long a time? Seems like just yesterday that I had 950 exp (back in December of 2002, when I finally started depositing every day and then b/ping in January 2003).
Anyway, your estimation for 10k saves does indeed sound sooner... so just hope that the portal ends up having more saves than usual during the times you're b/ping... and you should be set! #;-}>
Thanks to you pentalist fannet clickers, we've arrived at abnormally-early-morning list update time with a 16 in / 21 out score on the fannet list (compared to 17 in / 30 out last Saturday)!
Does the fannet count more than one click if it comes from the same IP? I.e., if (for example) I check the list, click, and then come back six hours later to check it again (for whatever reason) and click again, do you get two clicks counted?
Once per day. So your six-hours-apart clicks would BOTH count if the first one was at 9 PM ET and the second one was at 3 AM ET, but only one would count if the first one was at noon and the second one was at 6 PM ET. #;-}>
IOW, 7 clicks per IP per week. Which is why, up until I finally decided to request some help in this topic two weeks ago, I was ending up with 7 in / 7 out scores due to my own self being the only fannet voter for the pentalist. That is no longer the case, and I shall continue to thank my patrons for their support. :::nods vigorously:::

... So... which tunes do you know how to play? o_O
( well that was the placing i saw it at when i clicked on it the like 3 times i do every time an update comes up silly goose :P
If you're clicking three times on the same NG day from the same IP, you're wasting the 2nd and 3rd ones (see above reply to schneelocke). ;_; And like I also said, clicking on Saturdays is pretty much a waste, so wait until Sunday or so to click. I'll try to help that out more by updating the list in the evenings more often.
( for the amount of time i've spent on NG i still know not a lot haha, i never knew how the fannet worked, bad bonus *omg cries*
Heh. If the fannet didn't reset every week, some people would have 100,000+ fannet clicks. It would be the most popular statlist on NG, much moreso than exp or b/p. #;-}>
As it is, it's already kinda the fill-in for the top 50 popularity list that died 1.5 years ago.
HAHA yeah and then i could go and make horribly short reviews like ~X~ and get to 10,000 reviews XD or just wait a LONG LONG time to get to 10,000 XP
Long time maybe... but far less pain and effort than 10,000 reviews (even short ones) would take.
Of course i did, don't believe i was mentioned since posts and saves are in 8000's and 7000's respectively but once one breaks 9000 MAKE SURE TO ADD ME to those "close, but no you're not cool enough yet" mentions you make ;D MUAHAHA
Yes yes, you will be mentioned once you're getting close, silly. I only mention people who are above 9500 or are above say 9000 and moving upwards fast in a stat like blams or saves, though. So... yeah. Get moving quickly and you'll be mentioned sooner (and make the list sooner, too!). #;-}>
Also... you said "once one breaks 9000." Do you really think that your lower savecount is going to catch and pass your postcount anytime soon (as in... before your postcount hits 10,000)? Or even has a CHANCE to? O_o
I noticed how small the notes are :(, and did the previous update ... thing at the bottom look like that last time, because it was rather spiffy :o
Others... perhaps Denvish, SK, jonthomson, Dogma... one or more of them, I can't remember exactly... once complained that some of the text on my page was too small with their settings (back in January when the web pentalist was brand new). I made a couple of changes to how I did the fontsizes and so forth and I think it improved the readability for whoever had the problem. I'm sorry to hear it's still too small for you, but it's big on my display (I use a default of fontsize+1) already, and if I don't "-1" the size of the list notes text.... it'll be ugly as hell for me and any other people viewing it as large as I do.
To get the site in the glorious sizes that its creator intended, you should up your fontsize by one notch temporarily just to view the site (ctrl-mousewheel or find the option in the browser menu).
Did the previous update thing at the bottom? You mean the table with all of the previous updates? That's called the Archives section, man. Heh. #;-}> And yes, it's looked like that since Mark I. It's just growing bigger and bigger with each update, and it does indeed look quite nifty nowadays.
Yar!
