I imagine Guinea like right now as tbe memes of dudes smashing a keyboard fast

 

[JustLooking456]

@Archienine I'm trying to find that other thread about western vs. Japanese cover art... I know it exists, I'm just having trouble finding it.

Also, while I was looking for it, I found two threads that were similar!!!

I had trouble found it too. Seems like it was buried on the general gaming forum.
That two threads counts like Guinea points? (i know that mods don't longer have duplicate badges)

 

[JustLooking456]

I've been merging here and there and haven't been updating my points because they don't count anymore lol

And damn it all, I messed up linking them and now I can't find the two threads that were similar again!!! Lol

Edit- I'll search for them later (both the threads I found and the boxart thread that was lost)

Hey i found the thread i wanted you to merge.
Post in thread 'What’s the laziest/most boring game boxart you’ve ever seen?' https://retrogametalk.com/threads/w...-game-boxart-youve-ever-seen.9817/post-363193
Also, if i encounter that 2 similar threads, can i have that points?

Glimbo being always the most goated non-mod user of all the forum

 

[thumbsdown's iconthumbsdown]

the most goated non-mod user

Glimbo is a mod within our hearts

 

[ArchienineArchienine's icon]

he is a mod within our hearts

I will vote him to be a mod if i could

 

[thumbsdown's iconthumbsdown]

I don't vote at all, but I'd vote for Glimbo too

 

[JustLooking456]

@Glimbo Those aren't the ones, but thank you for helping search! One of them was actually the one Archienine wanted to merge : https://retrogametalk.com/threads/w...-game-boxart-youve-ever-seen.9817/post-363193

I saw another thread that was like "boxarts that suck" or something like that.

And speaking of that thread @Archienine I don't think it would be a good merge with the Superior Japanese Boxart thread, because one is about comparing boxarts and the other is about just bad boxart in general.

Holy crap my brain hurts all of a sudden!!

Oh, so Glimbo, Thumbsdown and me are the main duplicate hunters? Maybe the most goated trio of the forum leaded by other goated user.
Now i cant stop thinking about the GTA 1 main theme.

 

[thumbsdown's iconthumbsdown]

We rock, team

 

[JustLooking456]

@Glimbo +4 points!!!
@Archienine +12 points!!! And... YOU HAVE REACHED HUNTER RANK 2!!! YOUR BADGE HAS BEEN UPDATED!!!

How many points for rank 3?

 

[JustLooking456]

Good job, hunters!

@Archienine The two stars for some reason wouldn't post next to the badge, but I'll fix it as soon as I figure out why

Edit- I got ninja'd! Lol. 75 points for Rank 3!

I think that its for my one year anniversary award. Waffles and Kamako had trouble with the badge since that they had to made some changes to properly show it because the one year award break it for some reason

 

[Glimbo]

The opening post with the rules should probably be updated. It's still describing the old ranking system where every 5 points was a star.

 

[JustLooking456]

@Glimbo Thanks! I edited it out!

Edit- Actually, I think I should UPDATE IT FURTHER!!! (with the points ranking chart)

Edit 2- Done! The ranking chart has been added!

What if someone reach 2000 points? He will gain a rank VIII?
