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).

Yeah, that really is that long a time. ^_^ I'm not usually known for my patience - ah well, I guess I'll just have to spam the forums now to get 10000 posts. No, just joking. ;)

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. :) Yesterday was a pretty good day for me as far as saves are concerned (36 blams, 28 saves - 43.75% saves, way above my average of 23.74%), so if that trend continues, I might see 10K saves even sooner - but of course, this was just a single day.

(BTW, in case you're wondering why I got only 64 points in total, that's because I tend to be asleep at the time when the portal's most active. Darn timezone differences. x.x)

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. #;-}>

OK. ^^ Ah well, at least I can give you 7/7 score points per week that way - if I remember to actually click the FanNet icon daily, that is (don't count on it, my brain is like a sieve ^^)

Update on the pentalist's progress in the NG FanNet:

55. NG 2x10k+ PENTALIST gfoxcook 18 25

IOW, 18 in / 25 out (compared to 16 in / 21 out & 17 in / 30 out the last two weeks). Not too shabby. And no, X, I don't expect you (or anyone) to click for me on the RG fannet. I only put that link there to balance the NGtank in the upper left, and I use it myself every night while depositing on RG, but I don't care if other people do so. I don't need to pass you on RG, I'm #2 on RG. That's plenty visible. It's on NG where I don't want to slip out of the TOP 50 that I care about the NG fannet clicks.

Speaking of which, the pentalist didn't fall out of the top 50 until Friday (as opposed to Tuesday/Wednesday in the past few weeks)! So I'm quite pleased about that. With just a bit more clicking, maybe we could keep it in the top 50 until Saturday. Say around #49 or so. Nothing TOO impressive. #;-}>

And I've kept to my plans to try and post about the update post-midnight... this should help even more with this week's fannet performance.

Enjoy the update, people, and throw a click or two at the pentalist's NG Tank this week if you've got the time.

:::mumbles something about catching up at some point and then disappears into the night:::

Every time I check the penta list I vote for it for the fan-net...
back in the day when I had 56k I could just keep reconnecting to the internet to get a new IP address and then I could vote on the fan-net more than once... but since i'm a cable internet speed user now, I can't do that.

Much appreciated, man! But no need to even consider such IP-spoofery. Just consider dropping by the pentalist a second or third time each week (yes, I know it won't have changed, but let's say... perhaps you wanted to check on someone near you on the list, and you wanted to use the profile link on the pentalist itself to see if you'd passed them or they'd passed you by adding up their points midweek, say?)... if you click Mr. NG Tank again at such a time then there's another one or two extra precious IN clicks (instead of just the one on Sunday or whenever). :::nods:::

Oh, and the IN score of 18 from this past week clearly shows that I'm not the only one clicking, as I'm only 7 of those. That said, I don't expect or even ask anyone but myself to click the link EVERY day, so don't worry about going for a full 7/7 like I do, schneelocke. Every little bit counts, even just 1/0 (one in click in a week and no out clicks)... and I'd much rather have 30 pentalist fans clicking the link once a week than 5 hardcore fans clicking it 6 times per week and getting tired of helping me out so much and so often. Yanno?

Speaking of 30 votes per week, the current #50 site ended the week with only 22 IN clicks, so that's not very far away at all from the 18 IN clicks the pentalist managed.

Anyway... before I really do go and disappear for the night, I wanted to mention something much more list-related than all this fannet talk my posts in here have become:

XwaynecoltX is, of course, the favourite for pentalisting first... the potential first QUADLISTER, on the other hand, has been hazy for quite some time. By the time X's exp hits 10,000 (even if his posts are up to 10,000 by that point), I suspect there will already be a quadlisted person in existence.

Who? Well, it would have been Joe had he not stopped saving movies, he had it easily. alexsmolik also could have had it easily had he not slowed down or even stopped posting for the most part recently. Recon or I could have been the first to quadlist when either of us hit 10k exp... if only we were total spammers and already had 10k+ posts. And... poxpower would have had it before ANYONE could possibly have dreamed of competing with him for it... had he never decided that blams and saves were boring and a waste of time (but that's old news, really).

So.... Who's going to quadlist first? Well, it wouldn't have seemed possible back in December of 2004, which seems like just yesterday... when she had only around 3000 posts, but... it's going to be ramagi. Yep, you heard me right. Her posting explosion may not have been FOR this purpose, but it's going to achieve it nonetheless: ramagi could be quadlisted as early as mid-May at the postrates she's been capable of lately.

Hell, she sprang from 3000 to 8000+ posts in just 4-5 months. Yet it still seems so surprising. Congrats in advance, ramagi! And consider this a challenge to everyone else: get off your butts and see if you can become the SECOND to quadlist, eh? I have to wait at LEAST until July to do it, but that's no reason for everyone but ramagi to wait nicely for me. #;-}>

yea.. i've been really surprised as to how much her post count had shot up like that... she'll be penta listed first probably with the rate that she's been posting.

First pentalisted? I was just talking about QUADlisted, man.

She hit 1000 reviews awhile back and has only moved up to 1051 since then. I think 4-digits was what was important to her at that point. I mean, sure, she can hit 10,000 reviews someday. But do you think it will really happen before XwaynecoltX hits 10,000 saves? Because he's got 10,000 reviews already, 10,000 blams, will soon have 10,000 exp and 10,000 posts... and the only thing that will take him very long at all is 10,000 saves, but he's already most of the way to that.

That's why I said he's long been the favourite to pentalist first. ramagi COULD beat him there, but she'd have to go insanely review-crazy, and I don't think she'd want to waste that much time and energy just to take "1st to 5x10k" status away from X.

... Unless she hates him and I don't know it, or something. X, is there anything you want to tell us about something evil you've done to ramagi in the past or something? #;-}>

I clicked the fan net button a couple of times (can't remember if I did it before). So can we click the button more than once per day and will it register?

B/P stands for "Blam/Save", and blams and saves are points you can accumulate. Read the FAQ for more. :)

Update on the pentalist's progress in the NG FanNet:

47. NG 2x10k+ PENTALIST gfoxcook 22 38

IOW, 22 in / 38 out (18 in / 25 out & 16 in / 21 out & 17 in / 30 out the last three weeks). Incredible improvement, guys! Strangely, the pentalist fell to around 59 or so on Wednesday or Thursday, but by Friday it was back at 49 or 50! IOW, it fell out of the top 50 but got voted back up into it by you guys! Way to chip in! My own 7 votes are finally down to less than 33% of the in total (7 / 22), and that helps a lot for keeping the pentalist visible on page 1. Way to go, everyone!

Now to try and catch up a bit in here and the VP list and so forth. SPEED POSTING TIME!

The penta list was just updated. It looks very nice. Denvish is going to be flying up to where ramagi is at some point. In the near future it looks like there's going to be a lot of users with 10,000 exp points who will finally become triple-listed.

Yep. 7/7 is the max for any user/IP to contribute, so unless you're on AOL or something (and thus get a different IP each time you dial-up), once per day is all you can do. And like I said, no need to click it every day, just click it as much as you feel like and it'll help a ton!

Hey now, I'm still reviewing modding as well. Not that many link spammers to catch anymore, though. Bleh.

I got 10 reviews this past week, and I hope to get another 10 or 15 (to hit 600) in the next week or two. I've slowed way down overall as well, though. Good luck with your 1337 goal, but I think it's 286 that you need for it.

You'll make 10k posts easily if you keep making an average of 23 posts per day. Damn that's a lot of posts under a short period of time. But if you keep going for saves you'll make triplelisted which would be cool... Your experience points amount will take a little over 2 years to get to 10k. Reviews are self explanatory.

Beh. Who cares all that much about hitting 10,000 posts? You should be working on getting OTHER stats (cough)saves(cough) up to and above 10,000, dontcha think? Far better to doublelist due to saves than to posts, IMO. #;-}>

Anyway, the list will be here for ya when you finally make it over in either (or both, eventually). You've got less to go than I do on the postcount front, that's for certain.

The stars at night, are big and bright, deep in the heart of Texas!! Now if you'll excuse me I have to clean out my igloo.

Well somebody is gonna have 10,000 experience points with tomorrow's deposit and that means being triple listed by next update!

But yeah... I don't really associate the name "schneelocke" with spammer, so fear not, I would have assumed you were even if you hadn't made that disclaimer.

Heh. ^^

Thanks. :) Yesterday was a pretty good day for me as far as saves are concerned (36 blams, 28 saves - 43.75% saves, way above my average of 23.74%), so if that trend continues, I might see 10K saves even sooner - but of course, this was just a single day.

You can never get too many saves too quickly. Just ask toocool!

Yeah - it turns out it was just one day, too. And in fact, my save ratio continues to drop; it was the highest (24,94% saves among my total points) in late mid-February, but it's dropped to 23,47% again already. It seems that it's due more to the submissions made when I'm on the portal, though; it doesn't seem to me that I miss saves more often than I miss blams.

(BTW, in case you're wondering why I got only 64 points in total, that's because I tend to be asleep at the time when the portal's most active. Darn timezone differences. x.x)

I'm in a good timezone, but sometimes I'm asleep during the portal activity, too. Like today until 3 PM, for instance. Heh.

Heh. Until a month or so ago, I routinely used to be awake until 6 in the morning (or even later) - during those times, I actually managed to get gold a couple of times on the EGRL. Good ol' days. ^^ But seriously, it doesn't make you feel good to be up all night and sleep all day, so I'm gladly trading some points for feeling better.

Yep. 7/7 is the max for any user/IP to contribute, so unless you're on AOL or something (and thus get a different IP each time you dial-up), once per day is all you can do. And like I said, no need to click it every day, just click it as much as you feel like and it'll help a ton!

I get a different IP every time I connect to my ISP, so technically, I could vote more than that, but it would require manually dis-/reconnecting, which is a slight hassle.

Anyhow, you're currently #24 in the FanNet list. ^^ It'd be quite cool if we could get you to stay there!

Not nature-based - they're supposed to correspond to one of the four seasons. It doesn't have to be in an obvious way, but the reference should be there.

Well, the seasons are related to nature, are they not? #;-}>

Yeah, but not everything in nature is related to the seasons. :)

I lived in Japan for three years, and I know the way haiku are SUPPOSED to supposed to be, but most people outside of Japan don't stress that aspect... especially if you're just trying to be FUNNY with 'em, yanno. #;-}> It's a subversion of form which is quite fine. DECONSTRUCT THE MACHINE. And stuff.

You did? Cool. ^^

Thanks - I'll need that. Either that or lots of time...
