The Def Guide to Zzap!64

So, I WAS "King of Ludlow", and now I'm a "Sizzler member"* or something? Or what!?

What's going on here, eh? From King to member? That's quite something. I've got to check my rights. Or inform Mr. Kidd.
Or Michael Moore so he can make a docudrama out of it. Or, or... cry my eyes out on Oli's shoulder!

It also sounds quite...quite ludicrous, innit? I mean what's next? This new rating system gets my vote for the Tacky Award, am I clear?
And also, you thought no-one would see it, eh? You'd be getting away with it, eh? Well, no way Mr. Black!!

If you don't gimme back my title right now I'm going to tell everybody on this board that you're going to your first Prince gig coming August. Ha! Disgusting! Ha!

So. There!

[EDIT]
<oxygen shortage>
Gaaaasp...and...and I see certain 'members' with "King of Zzap Towers" status around? Whoah!? What you wanna be: a King or a Sizzlin' member? Aye? Something's going horribly wrongk here. Arf! Arf! Arf!

Gnarf. Wbargll. Snurrt.
</oxygen shortage>

Ka-boing!


*when do I get my well deserved Gold Medal status then, eh, eh?
Gimme Scorelord status or *anything*, really. Almost then. Almost.
I'd rather be a ScreenStar. (oh, wait. I could write a song about it - Inspiration! Inspiration!) I'd rather be a ScreenStar dum-duddly-dum toodledoo- then a Sizzling Member by fa-ha-ha-har -woo-am-bam-ba-waaayy. Do-do-do....

(fade-out)

If you think Sizzler Status is a step down from King of Ludlow, you've obviously never been there!

Rob you twonk!

You just went past 1200 posts, which was obviously the level set for the next rank. So you were UPGRADED from King to Sizzler. The other "kings" are still below 1200 posts, so keep their kingly status...

Hey, hey. Hear.
I forgot the emoticons, eh?

Like this one:

Hehe.

And no, I've never been to Ludlow, indeed. But one day, one day!


Ta-dum-di-dum.

And I'm going to be CROWNED! Oh yes!

<Twonk!>

Ah I see what happened now, I totally forgot I ever added those ranks. I was starting to get worried that someone had hacked the board or something.

You should have seen the PM he sent me! Was threathening [?] to have me assasinated!

Yeah, sort of. I was thinking Zzap issue 17 cover stylee.

Twunk! Deng! Klong!

All is forgiven!

I would love to see the ranks and associated "scores" - reminds me of turning pirate and notching up random kills of innocent passers by just to improve my rating on Elite!

Might spur me on to post some more junk to bore you all with

Well I think, original they were a bit secret so it would be a surprise when a new level was reached, but I guess they have all been reached now, apart from the last, highest level... does anybody else wanna see the list?

Iain you could always post it as a "spoiler", white font colour on a quote box like this (and then we could highlight it with the cursor to read)

Ah, Zzap!Nirvana.
When you reach it you turn into Jaz' hairdo. I guess?
Or you wake up and you realize you've turned into one of Gordon's kids. Hehe. Would be pretty cool actually. Or...maybe not.

Dunno if it really goes out with a bang...?

Err, hopefully not!

Well now that you know what you might graduate to Mr. Zzapback, has the excitment been taken away from it? Still if people keep on writing messages, we might have to add another few ranks!

Graduate!? I only get downgraded over here all the time!
Can I be a C+VG hit when I get older?

Be careful or it'll be the Tacky medal for you!!
