About this user: Was introduced to this site in January by some friends who have now fallen by the wayside, shame on them. At the time of writing am on the third generation of Gremlin who is going to die in the next few days but I must admit to enjoying trying to best previous members of the family.
Work for two charities part time that pay me, which fills up the week, and two that don`t, which takes up a chunk of the rest of the time.
Definitly in the top half of the age range who are on this site, if not top quarter. Married with two boys, one of whom is married with three daughters of his own, who are fantastic.
Enjoy the site and some of the forum threads, but not the childish or insulting ones.
Enjoy reading thrillers and watching good TV do not enjoy rollercoasters, unlike my wife who loves them, and liver, which again my wife loves. We must have something in common as we have been married for nearly 30 years!!!!!

RE: Gremlin Graveyard....The Grem Reaper strikes again

Raven V is Dead.

The Family would like to thank all of those whose fights enabled him to get, and hold on to, the number one slot.

He now sits next to his relative in the top ten of all time great gremlins. A fitting place to be.

As a period of mourning will now take place before the next family member is given life, but we will be watching with interest the site.

RE: Help regards experience points

He`s gone and the points are lost. That is one lesson you learnt yourself for others to learn from.

The one good thing is it might not have made much of a difference in the standings.

The Green Bar

RJS, could the calculations for the green bar be done differently? At the moment I assume that your number of fights is divided by the number of days you have lived and if that number is greater than 10 you get a full bar. the proplem with this is that if you you have been fighting a lot and then stop your bar still shows full. Both Sarah K and charli 2005 were going to terminate their gremlins before they went away on holiday but have been unable to do so. As I fight them regularly and know they are away I am not challenging them even though the bar shows them as active. If the calculation could be done on the last days fights then this situation would not arrise anyone going away for a weekend or holiday would show an empty bar.
They were showing 7 challenges outstanding so no more could be wasted. But as challenges lapse other people are challenging them and wasting their challenges.

Just a thought to tweek the game.

What is your secret?


Talk to sarah and she will tell you that I bribe RJS, which isn`t really true!!!!

But in essence fight a lot and try to win as many as you can. You can not get there unless others challenge you so be gracious in victory and magnaimous in defeat.

Enjoy Gremlins, it is fun especally when you get regular rivalsand have some "friendly" challenges.

BTW, Sarah and Charli, where are you. I know you are off on holiday soon and have a good one, but do remember to clear your challenges if you can. I would hatefor you to get flack from some other players.

RE: Yah! Number one for once!!!!

Yes but you did get to number one, and to miss quote Michael Cain, not a lot of people do that.

RE: Would love some Challenges

The Raven family are mine, just click on an owners name and you can see their profile + their current gremlin.

RE: Would love some Challenges

would love to but I have used up my challenges for today, but I will try to remember tomorrow. Good to see another who checks the site at an unearthly hour, I think.

Till tomorrow

why are we both up at such an unearthly hour


I have been waking up at 2 or 3 which is why I was not fully awake the other day, so it is either stay in bed with thoughts running through my head or go off and see what the state of play is. That usually settles me down so I can go back to sleep.

This morning was late for me but as I was up thought to look in. I am usually up at six any way so that I can beat the traffic into work, where I am at the moment. the best bit on that is I get away early as well.

I forgot you were off again, with a bit of luck I will stay alive for most of the time you are away so will not have to long to wait for the next series of battles.

Have a good one.

RE: mmmm i wonder if michael j quaking in his boots?

i was going to post to say that i id not forget youtoday when I saw you had allready taken up my challenge.
One win each seems a fair result, ;)

"All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" Martin Luther King Jnr.

ps your gremlin does seem to be aging very quickly though,

RE: mmmm i wonder if michael j quaking in his boots?

ok I admit it I am getting forgetfull in my old age, or was it I wasn`t quite awake when issuing my challenges. Sorry that I did not get a chance for you lose a fight but it was early in the morning when I did my challenges.

Tomorrow however I will remember to fight you, it isn`t the same without two fights you Sarah.

Now what was I saying !!!!!!

RE: Hey micheal J

HI Wezbo, nice to see you back.

No one else you know is around, they have all fallen by the weyside.

Do listen to Sarah, she is just a bit put out that I am beating her so far this round of fights. That and the fact she is aging quicker than me ;)

As you can see it is easier to get higher quickly when you get the fights, and others seem to like beating the members of the Raven family, I don`t know why?

RE: BONUS has started baby bashing again

Quote:
how did you get 18 points as she actually accepted his challenge yesterday and only got 4?


I got lucky, it took him two hits to knock me out and I dodged a lot. Tell your mum not to be jealous though, I heard that Hooch only got 4xp`s as well.

RE: BONUS has started baby bashing again

He is playing a different game to the rest of us, Still I was happy to get 18 xp`s off him for the beating.

Any time you want tot give me xp`s Bonus I will take them, especially as Sarah and I seem to be locked together at the moment.

btw Bonus went down 3 places yesterday Raven went up 2 ! That says it all really.

RE: see you all in a week

RE: Gremlin Graveyard

It is with sadness that I anounce the demise of Raven IV (The Reble). Even though he disliked Eric Clapton he went on to be the most successful of the Raven family. Not only did he reach the top of the league, which Raven III also did, but managed to stay there, which Raven III didn`t. Although Raven didn`t go out to achieve any revenge against Black Imp it was with a certain amount of satisfaction that he displaced Black Imp from the number 6 slot in the all time leaque.

Farwell Raven IV we will not see your like again, until perhaps Raven V.

As I am off to do a few days work in Northern Ireland Raven V will not appear until July as I am off on holiday at the end of the month and would not want to cut his life off short.

Farewell and thanks for all the fights

"All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" Martin Luther King Jnr.

Apology? to Magical Mau and Thank you to everyone else and MM.

Raven IV will most likely die tonight or tomorrow and I would like to thank all those who enabled him to get to the top slot and stay there. Even if he has been a bit of a rebel the family are proud.

Magical Mau knocked his predecesor off number one so it seems only fair that Raven managed to knock him down one place in the all time league. Sorry MM but gremlins is gremlins and I hope no hard feelings. Look forward to your nexr creation and some interesting fights.

When Raven dies the next member of the family will not be created until after the bank holiday as I am away in Northern Ireland until then.

One last thing, thanks RJS.............................for a great game.
