Ooh - 666 posts, now I'm an evil Satan worshippist. Lord have mercy. (http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/evilgrin/evilgrin0046.gif)
Congrats... I mean, should I exorcise you? :o
I just surpassed 200 posts! Yay me! :P :P :P
Haha. Awesome vealchop! :D You know, JL and I appreciate how much you post and keep the forum moving along. Famicom World is still so young -- three months old -- and it's already picked up many great members along the way. Thanks, man.
Ya this place is awesome man. This is the first site I check when I get to work and the first site I check when I get home. I like that I got in on the ground floor, forums like other NES sites have so many members and have been around so long that I feel like I'd be lost if I just started posting. Plus they never focus solely on Famicom. Let's keep this site growing!
400 posts!
Nice round number ;D
Just 100 more to become a Twin Famicom lol :D
Well,... congrats. :)
Twin Famicom is cool.
This is my 100th post here :D
~~NGD
Cool, guys. :D Today I surpassed FamicomJL for the most posts on the forum. ;) Oh where has JL disappeared to now. And, 133, you're just a few posts away from making it onto our list of the top 10 posters on this forum.
I am a post whore by nature but I just don't know enough about Famicom to contribute to much here. Still fun to read up on some of the stuff though.
~~NGD
YAY! CONGRATS!!
LOL I'm now posting from a local McDonalds ;D. It's 9:24 AM here. My sister came for a job interview and I'm waiting for her, they have a few computers here so I got in to check FW as usual ;D.

I'm sure I'll get there eventually. :) I think it's great that I signed up here in November 07 and I am already on the top 10 posters, haha. :P
No one's made it to 5,000+ posts yet. That's the final designation: "Disk-kun." ("FamicomBox" is 2500+)

look below!

Approaching 900 posts :D
900th post ;D!!!
GRATS!!!
Gawd. I need to start whoring myself on these forums a little more. My post count is unacceptable. :P
Just so everyone's aware: I tend to delete posts that don't contribute to the on-going conversation, so try to avoid one-word posts like "LOL". Depends on the thread, of course...some threads are of such a character to begin with that there's no need for me to delete one-word posts in it.
I'd just like to say that one word posts annoy the heck out of me. If I post something, it is at least a couple sentenses and adds to the discussion. :) That's how I roll, lol. :)
I'm almost at 1000. Does anything special happen when that number is reached?
You get a 1up
First person to reach Disk-kun get a prize. You know, the only time we gave something out, I think, was when the 100th member signed up.
It'll be a looong long time until someone hits Disk-kun. And it will be either FamicomFreak or one of the admins ;D. What about the most time online? ::)

Hm...maybe I should post a bit more here...maybe I'll be first to reach 5000 posts...
...Nah...not in a million years :P . Though I do have over 2000 posts at NintendoAge and probably close to 15,000-20,000 posts at TradeGamesNow...
I am nearing 8000 posts over at Nintendoage in less than a year and a half. I just don't know enough about fami stuff to post a lot here.

Like 10,000?
5000. :P
600th post ;D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only 99 more to go until I reach 1000. Do I get a new title at that point? If not, at which count should I get it? :)
at 1000 you get Sharp C1
...and I'm just 62 posts away to get it ;D!
I'll race you to it, haha. :P
I am good at the 2k zone 8)
I have no idea how you accumulate posts so fast, FamicomFreak. :P

I try to as much as possible, but without spamming. I only like to post if I have something valid to contribute. I don't post none of that "lol" or "post count +1" crap. :)
I wonder by how much FamicomFreak's post count would reduce if every 'WAAAAAA GIVE ME MARIO 8!!!!!' post were to be removed ::)

Hey they used to do that at the online gaming forum I used to visit. It gets annoying after a while. Nooo don't take those away from meeeeeeeee they must stay posted just incase someone wants to sell me that cart!
Just minutes ago I learned that one of my contacts found me Mario 8!! Now I am fully devoted to finding a second copy for you, FamicomFreak!
Gah! I need a contact who can hook me up with amazing pirates and consoles! Oh, wait. Jabra does that for me! :) Thanks Jabra! :D:D

Yeah you are right. I'm remembering that chance I had to get Mario 8 last year...:(
You'll get it. I wouldn't mind owning it too, but if I come across it before you do, I'll buy it for you, as stated before. :P
You had better do the damned same for me if you find the port of Pokemon Gold for the famicom. :P (the one that is actually like the gbc game. Not some crap side scroller with a sprite edit. :P)
Soo apparently this is my 1000th post. :) Discuss this amazing milestole.
Also, I'm a Sharp C1 now. :O
And while we're on the topic of post count status, you should make a status for 1337 posts labeled "leet burger" or something cool like that, and as soon as you post once, the status reverts back to what ever it was before. :) I think it's a great idea anyways. :P
That's kinda funny and a cool idea...but I don't think most people would notice the change in designation. And congrats on Sharp C1...still shooting for Disk-kun. Who knows, if this forum lasts long enough, we might have to create more designations.
Yes this forum will last forever!!!! FOREVER I SAY!!!
Quote from: MaxXimus on May 22, 2008, 10:34:27 am

I've seen videos of that, it looks pretty cool.
megaman had a crystal, but he said he threw it out with the converter. :(
Seen videos of what? :S Your post has nothing to do with the quote; not that I can see anyways.
Now look at it ;)
Oh, haha. I think that the only actual port of the gbc game is Gold. There are also other versions of gold which are just nes hacks of side scrolling games, but those aren't very interesting. I would LOVE to have the gold port.
Also, back on topic, I am almost at 1100 posts. :)
EDIT:
1100 posts. :)
...and this is the day I turn into a Sharp C1 ;D!!! <fireworks in the background>
Congrats and welcome to the club. :)
Congrats but someone should really edit the thread to higher posts.
Possibly a rename to YAY I JUST REACHED XXXX POSTS!!! :O
Yeah then anyone can post their milestones here.
Good idea to rename the thread. I just reached Disk System status lol. I know a measly 100 posts, but it makes me happy. :) I do try to post worthwhile things.

And it seems they're all legit posts, no BS to raise your count. :) Congrats.
I believe that if I am making a post, it should at least have something to add to the convorsation. BS posts are a headache and just take up space, and that isn't how I roll, haha. :P
What's wrong with Broadcast Satellaview (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellaview) posts? ;D
Everything is wrong with them, haha. Joking. Well played though my good sir.
Thought to celebrate my 1700th post. ;)
Congrats. A nice time to revisit the post stats:
JC 4061

MaxXimus 1234

I'm surprised veal's still up there, since he's been gone so long.
I'm almost passed him. Top 10, here I come!
wooohooo I'm 3rd!
You'll soon be 2nd. :o
I'm not sure that FamicomJL will come back again.

SRSLY? :o
Really? What happened??
Bwahaha, you'd like to know, huh?
A shame you can't read the staff board. :P ;D
I'm confused isn't this his site?
There was a coup.
A bloodless coup is always nice
But not as fun. :P

Wow, considering your modest and efficient posting.
900 posts! Whee!
Congrats! I'm nearing umm nearing whatever my post count is
You're just over 2500 -- nearing, I guess, 3000.
Wow yes I haven't been posting much lately but get ready to get annoyed by FamicomFreak once again!
Quote from: 133MHz on May 18, 2008, 09:28:30 pm
What about the most time online? ::)
We haven't talked much about this, but one of the public stats tracked by the forum includes how much time people spend on the forum (http://www.famicomworld.com/forum/index.php?topic=2204.0). I'm sad to have to report that I was recently pushed to third. I used to be number one. The top five:
133MHz = 51d 3h 16m
UglyJoe = 40d 17h 18m
JC = 40d 6h 36m
ericj = 19d 18h 58m
popibros1 = 17d 6h 33m
ericj and popibros trail...
Oh wow, I'm far behind on that one:
10 days, 17 hours and 21 minutes.
I'm over 2600 posts yay

It's no longer a secret....
You all must die!!
I never noticed that when you first join up to a low amount of posts, you're a converter...I think that should be the last one...even above Disk-Kun!!
Because then...after you exit Disk-Kun...you begin your journey to ....wait for it ....
*THE LAND OF THE FREE*
If anyone gets that certain videogame reference ;)
how many post do you need to become Disk-Kun ?
over five thousand
wow...that's going to take awhile... :P
Not for JC ::)
Heh...I've been at this for something like three years, and I'm still not there.
You're just 169 posts away! :o
Ouch I'm still a long way away!
I figure I'll be there in a few hours **Runs to get a Super Mario Energy Drink to start spamming at lightning fast speeds**
I'd try not to spam too much or the mighty admins will come to your house and rip your internet cables out of the wall or make every key on you keyboard into a backspace.
Too much? I don't think they appreciate any spam :D
But either way, this Mario drink is pretty good :P
I have to go, someone is loudly knocking on my door....and it sounds like...they have.... wire cutters....?
Wait a minute, I didn't start this topic. ???
I did. Probably JC merged it with yours.
How many posts do I need to make to become an AV Famicom?
1500 posts yay ;D ;D ;D!!!
I'm coming after you 5k posts
So...no one knows how many posts I need to become an AV Famicom?
0 = Converter
1-24 = Famiclone
25-99 = Famicom
100-249 = Disk System
250-499 = AV Famicom
500-999 = Twin Famicom
1000-2499 = Sharp C1
2500-4999 = FamicomBox
5000+ = Disk-kun
EDIT: Just wanted to see what this looked like in a post:
[Removed image]
Thanks for the key JC, that means I'm only 28 posts away!! Famicom FTW!!
It's a lot of work to be a disk-kun
Hey, Only 7 (or is it 6, after this?) until Sharp C1
OH YEAH!!! 250th post!! AV Famicom!
I don't think I spammed that much...

Ah, thanks for noting it. I don't usually pay attention to that stuff until someone posts about it here.
We might need to come up with a designation for 10,000 posts. Miyamoto?
How about Disk Writer?
2 more posts to 100 posts....
Quote from: ericj on January 11, 2009, 02:07:08 pm
How about Disk Writer?
Well, Disk-kun was always different. Everything on the list is hardware, but Disk-kun isn't. It would make sense to stick with hardware. There's the Disk Writer and the Disk Fax by Nintendo. (Who'd want to be a Disk Fax, eh?) It'd be kinda weird to leave Disk-kun wedged between hardware...so maybe he'd need to be bumped up.
I never expected the site to be around long enough to have to worry about more than 5,000 posts. :P
You could do accessories..

I threw it together in Photoshop in a couple of minutes for my Let's ID our FDS drives thread, I wanted something funny and attention-drawing at the same time :P.
It's funny how Disk-Kun's whole body fits almost perfectly on Uncle Sam's face :P
That was me and the magic of Photoshop™ :P
Makes me wonder...
Where did you get that pic of Disk-Kun..?
I see a resemblance to Doc's photo

I always wondered...what was the first post ever to be made on FW? The Proboards that is ;)
You can ask the members that were here since the beginning. They might have some idea.
The only way to find out is to go to those boards and look for the times on the posts and find the 1st one. It's maybe a welcome thread or a rules thread. Could be totally different, though.
I think this is the first post:

I dare someone to post there wekekeke :P

Are registrations still open there?

1900th post yay! ;D
I like numbers between 1900 and 2010 because of the years they represent :)
1900 was an interesting year, Australia was founded, the first auto show was held, and Japan and European powers occupied Bejing.
1901: The electric vacuum cleaner was invented.
The numbers before 1900 also represent years... no? :o
I'm almost at 3300!

If you're like my computer's BIOS, then the world started in 1900 and will end in 2079 :P.
Now seriously, IMO most people can relate better to stuff that happened after 1900 (with some exceptions during the 1400-1500s). i.e. if I say '1942', you will think more about the year 1942 than if I say, for example, 1315 or 974 (those are perceived more like numerical magnitudes).
That's it the end of the world is in 2080! Man I hope I'm dead by then and I send all my games to outer space.
Didn't the Mayan calendar say that the world was supposed to end sometime within the next couple of years? :o
Something like December 21, 2012, I think...but the Mayan's said it just about as much as 133MHz's BIOS says it.
January 19, 2038 will be more interesting. That's the day the 32-bit unix timestamp will overflow. It's like the Y2K bug, only much more likely to happen. Hopefully we'll have all moved on to 64-bit integers by then ;D
edit: also, 1400 posts!

I don't know...I don't think the Mayan calendar has been wrong about anything before..
The Mayan calendar is slightly different than ours, but just enough to make a dig difference over along period of time.
On the Mayan calendar, 2012 actually happened in the 1980's with our calendar.
Oy! Read up on it. The calendar doesn't predict the end of anything. All it does is end, as in the end of tracking a set period of time. You know how your 2008 calendar ended on Dec. 31, 2008; well, that's what the Mayan's calendar does, only they never really had anyone available to print the next one, so to speak.
And they didn't need one. No Mayans left, right? ;D
Pretty much.

First person to reach Disk-kun get a prize. You know, the only time we gave something out, I think, was when the 100th member signed up.
Well...JC...it's you..
What do you get? ;D
Also, what did you give the 100th member?
1907th post
I got the pleasure of being the first.
And yikes...you're at 1900...I think that means you post way too much. I notice you often post like you know what you're talking about but then someone has to correct you. I bet if you cut down on that -- and the side conversations with others your age -- your progress would slow significantly.

Despite that I was one of the first to join Famicom World when it first opened a couple years ago , this is my 100th post.
All this time having a real authentic Famicom system seemed out of reach and I was also busy collecting PC Engine and Turbografx 16 alot
Over 200!!!!
YAY!!!!!
I have 251 posts and I haven't been here as long as you have!
3000th post.
That's quite a lot...
That reminds me, I'm already over 2000 posts and I didn't notice.
Also, I think that dork already surpassed me XD.

jeez man slow down
100!!!!!!!!! ;D
next up, 100,100....... :P
I would like to say that my average post count in the past 10 days has (unofficially) gone down. If you look at popibros' post, on April 3rd, I had 2133 posts....
11 days later, I have 2243 posts, which is a (VERY) rough estimate that comes out to about 10 posts per day.
I don't think it really matters if you post a ton, as long as you actually contribute to the discussion, which you have been doing.

No. It does not need a spam house.
What is it? Is it the place where pointless threads/posts go to rot for eternity? Kind of like a visible /dev/null ?
No. A spam house is where you...spam.
That's what Twitter is for.

I was lurking around on the Proboards, and I found the old ranking system!
0 posts: New Member
50: Mr. Disk-Kun
250: Famicom
500: Famicom Disk System
1000: Twin Famicom (And a custom user title, if you want. 8-))
5000: Ultimate Fan
QuoteWho the hell came up with these ranks? I'm sure we could make it a little more interesting.
Throw in 'Pirate' somewhere, maybe for those who get banned.
/\ From Jedi QuestMaster :D
2200th post! ;D. Love these 'meaningful' numbers :P.
Broke the 2,500 mark sometime today..not sure when, exactly.
EDIT* Just realized 2,500 is FamicomBox :P

2200th post! ;D. Love these 'meaningful' numbers :P.
What meaning does 2200 have for you?
It's 10 times 220, which is one of the values for the E24 series of the Standard EIA Decade Resistor Values Table.
Or ten times the local mains voltage (220V), or a commonly used electrolytic capacitor value for linear power supply designs (2200 µF).
I love numbers. I like finding meanings for them. I also like series, progressions, hex & binary.
My favorite series is the powers of 2 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192...)
I can recite it all the way to 2^20 :).
BTW, 2222th post! :P
As of this post, my post count is 12B. Only one more post to reach 12C! ;)
I'm close to the next number in my post count!
2500...right Jedi QuestMaster ?
EDIT: over 250!!!!!
1000th post! :)
That's a pretty low post count. :P
IDK what you're talking about ???. I clearly did not edit that post either :P.
Either way, it's a low post count compared to JC :P
*looks at post count*
Sigh...
I have more posts than you, and you've been here since Thanksgiving. I've only been here since Valentine's Day!
Do I even have to say it?
No... You're about to go on about how more than a few posts of mine are spam.
I'm leet. :P
/\ WHEN DID THEY DO THAT?? When I was leet, it just said 1337 afaik
It must be a recent change, then.
Haha, nice. ...leet...

Heh, while we're at it, when someone posts their 9,001st post, post count should say "Over nine-thousaaaand"
I watched the whole Vegeta saga fight again, & that came up. :P
I think it's funny that they added another 1,000 when it was dubbed in the U.S, in most countries, he just said "Ah! It's over 8,000!"..but here.. "IT'S OVER NINE-THOUUUUSAANNNDD!!"
roggles has 666 posts :o
Hit 3,000 yesterday. Woohoo!
2500th Post! :D
I'm hitting a milestone soon I hope....
Me, too.
JC crossed 6000 the last day. He didn't post here. Maybe he waits for 10000.
JESUS CHRIST 6000! Man I just realized that....awaaa my milestone sucks now.
2 0 0 0
Congrats on entering the 21st century of posting ;)
That would be 2001, not 2000. ;)
Wait...what?
The 21st Century started on January 1, 2001, not 2000. So, he'll enter the 21st Century of Posting with his next post, at which point he can be welcomed to the 21st Century of Posting, as 133 said. :P
I think he's referring to the dispute as to whether a decade/century/millennium begins on the '0 year or '1 year. This hinges on whether or not there is a "year zero" between 1 BC and 1 AD.
I guess I was in some limbo zone prior to this post.
This forum's 60001st post!!! LOL! ;D
Is that BCE or CE?
I am waiting to break 1,000 posts. Its gonna be awhile though.
twenty posts for me.
That does not really qualify as a milestone... ::) Unless... ! ... no. :P
LOL I'm close to 4k!
Edit: me too!
We're both close to 4k!

This hereby marks post number 200.
200th post!
I Got about Tree-Fitty! ;) dammit im late
To 300 and beyond!
1001 posts! Only took almost two years. :P

ahh sorry but now this is officially my 100th post on FW!
Now THAT I call a good first milestone.
Enjoy your time here.
555! IM NOW A FAKE PHONE NUMBER!! ;D
Nice.
When I was younger I always wondered why phone numbers all over America (in movies) started with 555. I thought "why add that number if it's the same everywhere anyway?" :P

Only Famicom Frak gets one but congrats anyways har har har. You should get one though.
Yayy!!! 700 posts! ;D

4300th!
2500! FamicomBox, yeah!
Good ol' #500 Next stop, 1,000. ::)
1000 posts!! :o
A milestone I never believe I would reach anytime soon.
300 and ditto^^ Thought I'd be at 150ish by now.
Btw, the title is still screwed up because it says "Post Stone Milecount" so swap the "stone" and the "count" in the title please.
Ha, old April Fools residue...
Finally someone noticed. I decided to just leave it like that until somebody says something.
I would say FW had the funniest april fools but an article on Nintendo-Daily about Canada buying half of Hawaii was funny.
4,501st post. Only 499 more to Disk-Kun.
1001. It's a palindrome. ;D
ive made 137 post so far (this being my 138)
~~~~~LZP
Getting there....just a bit more...
(http://fatpenguinblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/06/666-b.jpg)
OMG that's a great milestone! the most satanic one yet!
I hate reaching that milestone... Had terrible luck and a terrible day like none other before. Came home and realised my post count was sitting at that number on Nintendo Daily all day...
350 on FW now! Going way faster than I expected. Am I a valued member yet? Jk ;D
1068. Post counts don't really matter. Content does, however.
I'm aware of that...
100.
I'm actually late by a few days, but I just realized it's my first anniversary on FW. One whole year sure went quick...
Hahaha, cool! I forget how long I've been here. I still remember the old forum and first site like it was yesterday. Those were awful...
777 :D
I didn't realize it until today, but I finally passed 50! Only 3600 more to beat out my NintendoAge count, lol. It's funny, but I've been a member of Digital Press the longest, and I think I have all of 20 posts over there. I think I joined there in 2002 ::)
5,000!
Second person on the forum to hit Disk-Kun! I think my custom title speaks for itself. ::)
Congrats, Dork!
Now head for 10000. As JC is practically out you'll probably the first to be there. :)
434, and today is my one year mark on FW, your right the year has flew by
Jeeze, Nintendork... You really do post a ton, I have been a member here for nearly a year longer then you and I have only a bit over 1,000 posts.
And this amazes me to no end,

300! w00t
1K finally. ::)
Now get to 5k !
400ish
Not exactly a post count milestone, but yesterday marks two years of me being registered here. Woot!
oh wow, I've been here over a year now, 14 months. I'm late on the year milestone but I saw others doing it :P
This coming January 7th will be four years of being in Famicom World....wow !
This January it will one year since I first came here.
I have nearly reached 3 years; just a few months to go!
375 :P
500! :D
1000.....and uh....1! ;D
I'm an older member, but you have twice as many posts? ::)
Most people on the board are older than me and I have the most posts out of anyone besides JC, who is rarely active nowadays. Age doesn't matter/relate to post count. :P
I meant the time since we registered on the site :P And I think linkzpikachu is older than me.
Eh, he's just a more active member. There are people who are still active that joined back in the Proboards days (which is what they used to host the site before FW had it's own website) and then I came along and started post-whoring it up, and eventually became the 2nd top poster.
And you're still doing it!
Look it! You just made two posts out of nothing. :P
actually he made two posts to add to his post count milestones :P
Well, here it is. My 100th post.
:fire: 666 :fire: :blinky:
Bumpity. 800!

Post number 10! Moving up in the world...
I need to get around to uploading an avatar.
Post 1982, the year I came into this world.
I wish I had found the famicom earlier among other things :link:
2000 posts! Yay!
20000 posts in B/S/T forum ;D it is not my milestone but it is Famicom world's :D :)
Not post-count, but I've reached 1000 PMs! :bub:
Hey, tonev, you have 1000 messages, 1 is new.
I did it too :)
You guys need to PM more. I'm at almost 2000 again and I've deleted more than 1500 a while ago. :o :crazy:
Yes but you have a shop 'Manny's Merch' remember! :D
Yeah. ;D
I'm also a mod and solve a lot of people's little problems. ;)
I think I'll have to prune another 1000 messages soon. :-[
Haha, pruning :) On a side note - I passed the 3000 without realising it... I was hoping for a different title :(

I finally passed JC. :o
WUUUT WOOOT AWAAA!!
1111 PMs :D
not a post count milestone exactly, but made me smile.
Well, tonight I became the 158th member of this forum to join the 100 posts club. I've been promoted from "Famicom" to "Disk System."
And, wow L_E_T, I guess you don't ever clean out your inbox, do you? Makes me feel a little less cluttered.
Every 6 months I go through my inbox and delete all unecessary stuff. Its pointless to keep them all.
also I have passed 1400.
Nope, I keep mine for nostalgia and sentimentality. It doesn't bother me having so many pages.
I used to post frequently but I have lost interest in collecting for the most part. So I lurk occasionally but that's about it, this is my first posting day in 2 months.
Y2K
Mewwwwwwww!
Well, I just became the 94th member of this great forum to join the 200 Club. I'm just short of joining the top page of the Member List (as sorted via most posts).
Oh yeah! 1400 posts! :star:
I'm now an AV Famicom. I'm liking this "promotion" more than I should, probably because I love my AV Famicom and never really had any interest in the FDS.
I'm the 80th member to hit 250 posts.
Nice, I actually wish I could be "demoted" to AV Famicom.
I know what you mean. I'm not that into exotic Famicom hardware. I've never even been into like Sharp NES systems. The AV Famicom is the pinnacle of my interest in hardware.
And I like being a Twin Famicom. Kind of makes me wish I owned one. :-\
The Fami-Kami-sama answered my prayers, it seems! With this title, every post I make will be a milestone in its own way.
Hooray for admins with a sense of humor and some free time!
Haha, I'm hoping that in some years time I will have enough posts to get a bespoke title, but I love that you got to keep AV Famicom :)
I'm coming up to 300 posts. I feel like a bit of a post whore but I do lurk when I have time!
AND I'VE HIT 300 WOO!!!
Annnd I have become the 74th member of the 300 club here.
Wewt! We should dance do you know the macerena? :P
This is now my 333rd post! I'm only half evil!
600 posts, meaning I'm just about 9/10ths evil. :crazy:
I guess I'm more than 10 times evil then... :'(
;D YAY FOR EVILNESS
If you put it this way...
Then yaaay! :star:
25 Post and I become a Famicom.
But hay! what is these strange Square buttons ?! I'm a bit worried.
;D
400 Club! I'm the 59th member to join it!
616 posts, which I guess means I'm now 100% evil. ;)

IOO BABY YEAH 8) 8) 8)
I just made my 500th post. I'm the 46th member of the 500 club, and I'm apparently a Twin Famicom now. Sadly, I liked being an AV Famicom more (as I don't have any interest in the FDS).
You can post more and upgrade! I have the feeling you are part of the Famicom Family now, I certainly enjoy reading your contributions.
Thanks for the kind words, LET. I've definitely gotten hooked on this board. It's a small community here, but a friendlier and less competitive one than Nintendo Age (which is the only other board I frequent).
But I guess I don't see what upgrades I have to look forward to: I don't see a Sharp C-1 in my future as a Famicom player/collector, nor do I see a Twin Famicom for that matter. I'll never collect disks, as I've just seen too much about their unreliability. I like my cartridges; they'll survive for decades, with a minimal amount of maintenance.
I did think it was pretty cool when nightstar got the "Always an AV Famicom" custom rank. (Hint, hint, mystery admin...)
FamicomBoxes are pretty cool. So are Disk-Kuns. Make it a goal as a Famicom collector to get either one of those. Those were a couple of mine. Sadly, I never met them because I was 15 when I was super into Famicom and didn't have the money for such extravagance. :D

ITS OVER 1700!!!!!!!!!! 1111one
500 :o
Congrats :)
I already passed my first post so ... that is a milestone, too right? The first step was made ;D
See you in the forum.
Greetings,
Ginkgo*
Congrats on breaking the ice.
4000!?
Well, it's been a good few years here at FamicomWorld, from that very first google search back in the day for 'Planet Famicom' and 'Famicom Homepage'... This marks my 4000th post, here's to another 4000 posts in the years to come.
Thanks to everyone for making this site such a lovely place to spend a few minutes each day (several times a day+) :link:
You beat me to it L__E__T.
I saw you had 3999 and rushed here to beat you to your milestone haha.
Ahaaa, but what if my 3999th was a deliberate ruse, only to allow me to paste a reply I had already written! :question: :question: :question:
I'm sure it was haha. When I get close to a milestone I go on a bit of a posting spree to bring me up to it :p
congrats on 4000 posts,LET
I'm coming up on 1800 posts. I should never have left for those few years. :p
congrats on 1800 post
Damn you, you beat me to it you little bugger. Haha thanks though. :)
4 thousands posts? unbelievable!
I'm in the 700 club, and I'm only the 36th member of it. Wheee!
55th post. Nothing too special. I'm moving up in this world... (cue stupid pun!) ...this Famicom World! EDIT: Another milestone: This is the 444th reply to this post!
Too bad most of it are useless spam...
Everyone has something to contribute. :)
P: My posts, or the 440 replies to this topic?
I know which one it is not going to be...
I was irritated when making that post, you have made many proper posts as well.
However you shouldn't go around and post totally irrelevant stuff into every thread you dig up just for the sake of posting. Forums is not only for chatting but also a place to search for useful information. If everyone spammed irrelevant stuff in every thread, it would be a hell to find what you are looking for. In threads like this one and "Last thing you did" and the like, it's totally ok to post nonsensical stuff though.
100 posts! ;D Disk-kun is smiling right now, but L___E___T's 4,000+ posts blew the poor yellow dude's mind. :o
Ladies and non-ladies, I have reached 1900 posts. :)
Actually you have 110 posts.
You're not being funny, just so you know.
Anyway congrats on your 115th post. I'll dissappear until my next milestone. Tah tah post count milestone thread.
Wow I'm a Sharp C1!! When did this happen? I reached 1000 posts without realizing it!
Congrats, P!
Congrats!
165 posts.
Also, I got a time milestone: 1 month and 2 weeks. (I noticed 2 weeks later. :P).

The mods could easily ban you as well. Lol jk.... but seriously though, they could just ban you.
Posting Milestone post ;D

2250!
Awesome, U.I. Gremlin!
1988th post. The year I was born.
Wow. Good job, MaxXimus!!!
2000 posts. I should get some kind of raise lol. Maybe a custom title? Who knows!!! (Nudge nudge. Hint hint. ;))
I thought you were against name changing :D
I am against it haha. I was talking about a custom title in place of the "sharp c1" title. :p wishful thinking, I know. :( Who knows. Maybe one day I'll be a mod. :p

Haha, on our forum we call it "Post-whore", no offence, and people like it :)
Max, when you reach 2012 posts, will the apocalypse occur?
We missed the apocalypse. Thank goodness for that.

I am glad it didnt because I passed that number 244 posts ago.
800 for me. I'm the 34th member of the board to reach that, if the Member list is to be trusted. Has anyone ever posted this much and then deleted their account?
congrats on the big 800 i just passed the 600 mark
I'm TWIN FAMICOM !!!!
YEAH,
(am i really?) ;D
YES!
Happy 500, smeggy!
I just got a milestone: 250 posts!
50% of your posts. Congrats.
Nice...
I bet You'll have more posts than me in future :-D
Within the first month of me joining the forum, I was making 8-9 posts per day. Lol. I was probably a big post-whore back then. Now I make 0-4 posts a day.
605 now :) Just passed 600 posts :D ALMOST AT 666 ;) :fire:
You're on fire! !!!! :fire: :fire: :fire:
I'm coming up on 2100 posts . what a glorious day.
I'm on 600 and nothing can stop me now :P
Congrats smeghead!
I passed 4500 without even noticing. Less than 500 posts until Disk-kun :diskkun:
Congrats joe. I feel as though the size of my post count is inadequate compared to yours. Oh well. Size isn't everything. :3
This is my 701st post ;D
I talk a lot of shit :P
Shit talker.
Haha joking. Congrats. :)
MaxXimus I see you're on 2121 as well - I like to see duplicate numbers like that :-[
Oh neat. 4747 :o ya they really stand out.
4777 ;)
7 is my personal lucky number, so it's not a proper milestone but I like it :D
that's so weird. 7 is my favorite number as well.
I'm now over 900 posts, and now 34th on the board in total posts. Not bad, considering I've had a little less time for the forums over the last couple of months. And I'm up for a title promotion in less than 100 posts!
You are a most valued member of this community kind sir Jackson. Are you still leading the NA challenge for the year?
I really hope we can organise something similar per month on FamicomWorld.com for example, score challenge on Mario Bros, or just a simple 'finish SMB3' this month. Like longer Game Center CX challenges I guess.
I might start a proper, official FW thread, but as someone who partakes in these challenges, what are your thoughts??
You are the truly kind one here, Sir LET-celot. I've been spending a bigger chunk of my free time playing NES games for the NA challenge. And yeah, I'm dominating in the individual statistics. But I haven't won anything yet, and there's still dozens of interesting games left on the list, so my work is still cut out for me.
As for whether FW needs a similar gaming challenge, I'm not sure.
I don't know how successful a "Beat Every Famicom" thread would be here. The Famicom library is twice the size of the NES one (in licensed terms alone, and the unlicensed gap is much wider too). This forum also has a fraction of the number of serious gamers that a large forum like NA has. Also, I think there'd be especially low interest in the hordes of mediocre adventure, baseball, mahjong, and other games with language barrier issues.
I know NA also has high-score contest threads on one game a week. Something like that might be easier to do here, but I've never participated in one of those. I'm much more interested in seeing endings than maxing out my score meter.
Also FW being a smaller comunity than NA, and there's many more time consuming games for Famicom than for NES (RPGs and Adventure games).
We would have to limit the challenges to much less games, for example all pulse line games within a week, or a certain number of games in different genres in a certain period of time. For example: 10 Platform games, 10 shooting, 10 fighting, 5 puzzle, 5 sport, 3 light gun shooting, 1 adventure, 1 RPG, 1 simulation and 1 table game (doesn't need to be mahjong haha).
Nowadays I seldom finishes an RPG the same year I start it though.
Actually I was talking about relatively quick fire challenges, rather than an all-titles completion challenge.
For example, if you did it bi-weekly or even monthly, one could be 'Get to Rank 5 or above in Balloon Fight Game C', another could be 'Finish Stage 3-3 of Kirby in under 2 mins' - that kind of thing.
Would just be a fun nudge to play more games in some different ways, with discussion around it, maybe some are easy, some are hard, some are quicker and other are longer burners - just a bit of fun.
Maybe the first person so complete the challenge could make a vote on the next challenge via the poll system - similar to how PixelJoint.com run their challenges. There's a first, second and 3rd place and the winner declares the next challenge over there.
25th post.
Upgraded to Famicom! :redcart:
Looked at my profile:
Quote3959 (1.337 per day)
Welp, it happened - ran up 5K posts in the years since I joined. Very pleasant to be a part of this community I must say, there's a reason I come back everyday.
So, now I'm a Disk-Kun, not sure what to make of that :D
Hey, congrats!
Looks like I'll be next :-[
6k for me! This one took much longer than any of the others did.
Congrats! Nearly as many as Manuel! :bub:
2200 is just around the corner for me.
Just passed 2222 posts.
I've hit 1000 tonight. I've now become a Sharp C1. I'm the 30th member of this prestigious club.
Congrats and welcome to the club! ;D
Congrats to Jedi on his 4000th post (he's at 3999 right now so I figured id beat him to the punch) haha
Keep beating! He's still at 3999. ;D
I found Jedi on LinkedIn I considered prodding him to post from there haha :D
I hope that does the trick.
Reading this I thought I should get a LinkedIn account, too.
I get spam on LinkedIn and I'm not even on LInkedIn >:(
How's that even possible? ???
Oh, I meant "spam from LinkedIn". I get these "Some Guy I've Never Heard Of is inviting you to join LinkedIn" emails every month or so.
I get random linkedin spam as well. Actually I have been getting loads of spam from everywhere lately.
In other news, I just passed 2300 posts. YAY!!!
Oh, that makes more sense. I think I've gotten one or two mails like this, too.
Crossed the 7000 mark a few posts back. :bub:
Congrats Manuel! I do hope you ran around shouting "ShichiSen Ichiban!" for at least a good few minutes :D
I think I'll reserve that for 10000 or something. :-[
Maybe like this:

Or you could run around screaming "Yatta Yatta!!!!!"
That's also good! Yatta!! ;D
Congrats! Lol!
2400 is just around the bend. It's nothing calm pared to some of you post whores, but it's still a milestone haha.
Haha nice :) I want Jedi to come back and post just one more time in this thread :D
I passed 2000 posts! Without realizing it (again).
I'm coming up on 2500 posts. :)
There it is. 2500 posts. I'm in the big boy leagues now. :)

You are so right, my dear sir, we cannot have that. :mario:
Then we should do something about it quick. At this rate, they will have quadrupled their posts by the weekend!
Welp, ten years down the line and 6000 posts later, I sure am glad I stumbled across this community all those years ago - you guys are the best bunch around!
Wow, congrats on 6k.
