Now I sorta see how Gfox felt about the pipe, although pipe > tootsie pop.
Ugh ...
indeed you do....
but while you now feel the pain that I felt while level 14... and while that pain will last longer for you at 23 than it did for me at 14... there's two good things. 1) your VP rocks. 2) just as after level 14, I'm enjoying the blessings of level 15 and the soon-to-be-gotten level 16 icons.... after you're done with level 23, you get to enjoy teh level 24 and level 25 icons.
14 and 23 are certainly two not-very-nice icons to me, but 15, 16, 24, and 25 make it worthwhile, I think. Don't miss any deposits, though, cause that'll just make your time in level23land last longer. ;_;

I need like 1900 exp, and 4k posts... so that means I have 190 days to make 4000 posts. That seems reasonable. I have to average... like....20 posts per day.... oh shite.
ok not that doable after all. Unless I have all my math wrong. My guess is I'll reach 10k exp before I get 10k posts.
Now that you made me think about it, you're not that wrong. It really IS true that you might reach 10k exp before 10k posts. At first, I didn't realize that exp went by 10 and 10 every day. Wich means you have to do 10 posts or more everyday. Wich is ... sometimes ... annoying / hard to do or you just don't feel like posting.
So yeah. You'll reach the 10k exp first. True.
For you fairly-closet-to-10k exp people, that might be true, but...
a few hundred exp (and posts) ago, my posts passed my exp. Now, while I just hit 5200 exp today and my posts are only a bit higher, at 5330 or so... my ppd is over 10 for the past few months overall, so... unless I take a big break from NG or something, my posts will remain higher than my exp from now on, sorta like Tanner... I am destined to hit 10k posts before 10k exp, I think.

You know what you were saying, Gfox, about wanting to increase the amount of B/P and Exp needed to 11,000? Well, you could increase the B/P so that you need 10,000 of ONE of them. 5,000 Blams, and 7,000 Protects wouln't get you in, but 10,000 Blams and 100 Protects would. Good Idea? Yes, no? I'll shut up.
It's not about wanting to, it's about the top 50 exp and top 50 b/p lists soon being useless for getting to the profiles of everyone about 10,000 exp or 10,000 b/p, and that making this list a lot harder to do the way it's configured now.
Anyway, that's an interesting idea, but if I were to split blams and protects into two categories... the list would become too wide for the post area width. I'm sure poxy supports this idea, though, since it would cut out a lot of b/pers from the list who don't have 10,000 in either saves or blams or both. #;-}>
Anywho, I'm either going to cut this list to top 50 or raise the exp/b/p requirements next update. Stay tuned to find out which within 2 weeks or so I expect to do it.
