So I have popped back up with the Roll of Honour after a mere break of ten months :D Essentially anyone with 100 or more Commendations or 1,500 or more points (Apprentice Scrivener and above) will get a mention, incidentally if I have failed to include anyone I should have (particularly among the Scriveners) or made any mistakes please let me know :) This is just a bit of fun which will hopefully encourage a few people to chase commendations and points a bit. (25 is galobttr btw with 2,069 points, I don't know why his name didn't pop up).

I had to look up what galobttr even was, and the answer was: no one. This user does not exist, even as someone with a string of numbers attached to their name. Where's you find this list, Will?

As far as I know the one Ford made is still broken.

And I got a chuckle at Kumquat sitting up there above so many members who actually have done things.

That is a good question, he was on an earlier roll I think so he might have come from Ford's list? If this bizarrely named individual is a figment of my imagination I'll snip him out of the next list. Yeah, it's funny that some members who haven't been active for several years managed to gather so many points they are far above the actually active members :D Though there are quite a few Expert Scriveners who have contributed a lot recently :) It might be worth mentioning Thara, Brad, MadHattersDaughter Simplesabley and Mayana are all very close to moving up a rank.

They got fat and lazy off those daily points until JJJ kicked them off of welfare.

Old galobttr, yeah, I remember him. He was pretty active back in the cys golden era.

I'm so confused now. Plugging the name into profile links just dump you back on the front page, and nothing comes up I a user search. Unless everyone has been misspelling it, this account doesn't exist.

I mean I don't know what is the point of that except being a complete discouraging tactics, for new people. It kinda looks like Do you see this list... Well, you will never be here looser. Still, it has the usefulness of making new people humble.

Everyone in the list was a newbie at some point.

Yeah, well, that doesn't encourage anyone. It is a thing I have with the honour lists, They only objective is that the people who are there jerking off how mighty they are and how much they are above the rest. It is basically the origin of all titles bragging about them to the lessers. And Like I am a lesser and I will never be in that list well I have to be the grumpy peasant complaining about the fancy noble lords with their titles.

Laying aside the truly meaningless nature of pretend hierarchy, an old adage comes to mind:

"Don't hate someone because of their enterprise."

Obviously, I will hate the people that have stuff I want. What I should do kiss their ass? lol

But doesn't wanting something count as motivation?

If so, then this should thread should qualify as encouragement.

(You're Welcome.)

Lol, Pfff... Probably End Would recommend me to say LOL FAG.

^v^

Shoo, peasant. You're blocking my view.

That's the spirit!

I guess it depends, could be an encouragement or a discouragement or both at different times :) To get onto the points thing a person just needs to rate just about every story on the site, write some stuff and make some contributions, 1,500 is easily achievable within a year :) The same with the commendations, a few thoughtful reviews and forums posts and you're away!

Well, for me is totally impossible but I guess It could be realistic for a very talented natives. Still, I will stop complaining about the list. And let the nobles brag about their fat pen... titles.

That's right, it's totally impossible unless you read and rate as many games and get involved with the community as much as people like Cricket have. And whining about the work other people have done is way easier than doing the same things yourself obviously.

I will never have a review commented or anything and my English is not good enough for making articles. So basically I can't put me in that list. lol

Well you seem pretty determined but you have nearly 600 points so you're nearly halfway there already :) Rate the stories and keep writing and you'll zoom up there, it's not an elitist thing but a recognition of achievement thing (I used to keep track of everyone with 1,000 and over but it got too tiring!) and just an arbitrary and for-fun thing I made up more my own personal entertainment than anything else. End Master isn't really a king, though that would be an interesting concept :D

*loser

Loser? Yes, It is a way of watching it. I see it Communist way Like I will never have the fancy titles, I will do all possible to they lost them. :) It is a joke, I am used to see people bragging about titles that I will never get from Cog

Honor rolls are generally used to inspire people. And not just the people on it - to inspire everyone else they can make it if they work hard towards a goal.

I recognize that I am a pessimistic downer with not self-esteem. It is totally true. So for me this kind of Honor stuff It is like a Big neon sign Saying How much I suck. I only feel inspired to be cranky and fussy like an old grandma. Still, I am a stubborn hard worker and someday in several years I hope be in the list. It is question of working really hard and constant every day. I still follow up my system of write 1,000 words every day.

Still, at least in my culture the only reason to be on honor rolls is to hear your parents and family brag about how my Kid is in the homour list in their promotion.

Imagine autsitically going through and searching the site manually for users who meet set criteria instead of autistically coding a script to parse the site for you and format the data in thread-post format with hyperlinks included instead of just plaintext.

Ford, fix your broken list and update it.

Although just an fyi to Will, if you @ the usernames next time that will turn them into links to profiles for many of us.

No worries @Mizal :) I didn't think to do that :D Haha Sometimes I feel like everyone else is in the computer lab while I'm in the cave next door huddled over a pile of twigs chipping two stones together and saying something like "come on guys, I want to cook something" :D
