Thanks! I remember there were like 15 of those when you asked me. If I knew you were doing so many of those and it would take you almost 5 months to post mine, I'd come up with some longer and more interesting answers. =)
Do you have all of the medals, or are there some that are too difficult/frustrating/bad games? Your score is pretty insane, 10 times as much as mine and then some.
I don't have every medal out there. It used to be pretty close, but there's so many games out there now and I don't have any competition for #1, so I'm not trying that hard anymore.
I actually bought $50 worth of store credit again, so I'm going to give away another Supporter Upgrade sometime in the next few months. It's probably going to be another lame giveaway with 6 contenders, we'll see. The most important thing is supporting this site.
Nicely spotted by the way, it's only been 3 days. =)
Respect for your wide lead in points, old man :) Did you get into the BBS after you joined, or was it too crazy a place? I don't think people believe me when I tell them how insane it was, when the mods were almost as bad as the trolls... there was a heavy turnover in mods back then.
Thank you! For me the BBS, at least the general part of it, hasn't changed too much. I remember wanting to participate but only read weird/stupid topics so I never knew what to contribute. When I read the BBS now, again I see the same topics so I never really post anything. I used to post a lot in the dutch people club and the stat topics, and right now I'm posting about medals and other stats.
You've been here for over a decade as well. I guess for some reason we just really like Newgrounds!
Heh, hello! I don't care about the top list anymore (why would I?) but I still enjoy playing medal games. Not sure about the future though. I might go all the way to 500k, but there's also the possibility of me pulling a Hedgehog soon and retire. Every big change in your life leads to a new balance, and I never know if playing games on the internetz is going to be a part of it.
Not really... I figured if someone deserved a Newgrounds Supporter Upgrade it should be Charles Darwin. He's a bit of a save-whore though, his b/p ratio is horrendous .
I can assure you it was decided randomly. All of you deserved to win, but I'm obviously quite pleased with the outcome. I see you still have the annoying 'Knuckstrike has no gear' message, while I have 2 Supporter Upgrades in my gear list. If you want I can send an e-mail to the store guys asking if they can fix it. Just let me know. Hope you like the changes thus far!
We'll see, I hope not too many! Christmas is a fun and busy day, I can squeeze in a bit of PC-time in the morning, but after that it's all about food, drinks and presents. =)
Actually, there is a winner, but since we're so close to Christmas I decided to wait a couple of days to make the announcement. Check this page again in two days if you'd like to see who won. =)
According to the Hexalist by Bahamut I had 12,567 medals 2 weeks ago. I earned 7k points since then, so I'd say I lost about 1300 medals. Pretty depressing stuff, but I'm confident the problem will be fixed.
Congrats. Still great to have a Dutchman as #1 Medalist of NG. =]
Unfortunately, I don't view NG medals the way you crazy medal collectors do, mainly due to the fact that it wastes my time and my laptop lags fairly easily.
Why are you earning these NG medals? I really can't see the point behind it.
It's was the kill 53000 enemies medal in Madness: Project Nexus. Unfortunately the medal point glitch happened so I stayed at 299900 points after earning the medal. After earning another medal I had 300010 points so I just decided to earn new medals right away.
I expected you to have way more medal points and a thousand more medals than I have, but you actually have both about as much more than I have. That's pretty surprising to me.
I nominate VuvuzelaClock (emeralds5.newgrounds.com) for this because he is shipping out for the Navy next week and you can not only celebrate your milestone but SUPPORT OUR TROOPS with that action.
Well, since I don't expect that many comments he has a decent chance of receiving the upgrade. I won't be giving it away next week though, so it's likely going to be a 'welcome back' gift for VuvuzelaClock.

You will have a competition soon.. *coughWonderTheHedgehogcough* (dammit his name is too long..)
Nah, as long as the gap between me and #2 is over 50000 points, I'm not going to get my hopes up.

You bought another "Support upgrade"?, I believe that you are the only user who now has 3, is a record! ;)

"one of the best gamers on a website" I guess no one can dispute that now!
I tried to make fun of myself there, but I guess it also made me look like mr. Ego. Woops!
3/12/13
Expect many more comments in the next couple of days about how many medal points you have :D
We'll see. Too bad I don't have a real news-post. Maybe I should bring the 11 Years on Newgrounds post back and change it 12.5 Years on Newgrounds. :O
3/12/13
You're kind of a big deal.
So are you.
2/18/13
So.. how does it feel to be 50k points above second place..
Heh, hello! I don't care about the top list anymore (why would I?) but I still enjoy playing medal games. Not sure about the future though. I might go all the way to 500k, but there's also the possibility of me pulling a Hedgehog soon and retire.

You are the reason PsychoGoldfish fixed the medal system!
http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1035978/92 0#bbspost24493386_post_text
Haha, awesome. Thanks for the info and help on that one! Hurray 13500 total medals earned. =)
1/24/13
So... are those winners also chosen randomly?
Not really... I figured if someone deserved a Newgrounds Supporter Upgrade it should be Charles Darwin. He's a bit of a save-whore though, his b/p ratio is horrendous .
1/15/13
Any news on that 3DS?
I aint kartin' no mario with peeps sayin' LoZ is terrible!
1/11/13
Aww..., I did not win anything....
Hm, I guess you didn't receive your 'I participated in Nijsse's contest, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt' shirt yet. Stay tuned!
1/10/13
Thank you! :D!
You're welcome! Hope it brought some happiness into your life! 0_o

How about a new song?
Also, my game is going to be a neon bullet hell game.
1/9/13
Congratulations Nijsse!
Thanks man!!!1 No clue what to post as a news update. Any ideas?
12/26/12
You don't need to change it. You bought it.
And what do you mean by "changes"?
You know, the supporter features... =)
12/25/12
...and don't say that no one cares >:(
12/25/12
Woo!
Yay!
...but how? I have a reputation of never winning random stuff.
Thanks Nijsse.
I can assure you it was decided randomly. All of you deserved to win, but I'm obviously quite pleased with the outcome.

12/25/12
Congrats Knuckstrike,And thanks to Nijsse for the contest,I was pleased to participate :)
You're welcome, thanks for participating. =)
12/25/12
Ahh... I missed it... D:
Yeah, you're just in time for Christmas though. Welcome back!
12/23/12
Ah, oops, I didn't see your response to Shantom's comment yet.
For one of us there will be two presents this Christmas. One hundred point medal from a certain calender, and an upgrade as well. :D
Something tells me there will be many more "be here on christmas" medals.
We'll see, I hope not too many! Christmas is a fun and busy day, I can squeeze in a bit of PC-time in the morning, but after that it's all about food, drinks and presents. =)
12/23/12
Are you making this a Christmas gift?
12/23/12
I wonder what you posted in that blank post in the forum <,<
12/23/12
No winner yet?
Actually, there is a winner, but since we're so close to Christmas I decided to wait a couple of days to make the announcement. Check this page again in two days if you'd like to see who won. =)
12/11/12
Hi,I'm at about 29000 kills in the Arena mode of Madness: Project Nexus,I'll get that medal someday,I'm your 27th fan btw.
Awesome, thanks. Good luck earning the Project Nexus medal. It's an insane grind.
12/10/12
Oh, of course.
Did you lose almost no medals, or is it just that I didn't notice because the number is so big?
According to the Hexalist by Bahamut I had 12,567 medals 2 weeks ago. I earned 7k points since then, so I'd say I lost about 1300 medals. Pretty depressing stuff, but I'm confident the problem will be fixed.
12/10/12
No Shantom?
Shantom already has a Supporter Upgrade. =)
12/10/12
And in two weeks you already got another 6700 medal points O_O
12/4/12
Congratulations Gamer!
11/24/12
Yeah probably not anytime soon, but it got their attention.
11/24/12
I don't know how I missed this post o,0;
Congratulations on 300k!! you earned it :P
Well, apparently I missed yours as well. =( I hope your efforts will be rewarded, but I don't see things get changed any time soon.
11/24/12
Congrats. Still great to have a Dutchman as #1 Medalist of NG. =]
Unfortunately, I don't view NG medals the way you crazy medal collectors do, mainly due to the fact that it wastes my time and my laptop lags fairly easily.
Why are you earning these NG medals? I really can't see the point behind it.
Because I love games, and doing something you really enjoy is never a 'waste of time', imo.
11/23/12
Congrats on 300,000 points. What was the medal you got when you achieved this?
It's was the kill 53000 enemies medal in Madness: Project Nexus. Unfortunately the medal point glitch happened so I stayed at 299900 points after earning the medal. After earning another medal I had 300010 points so I just decided to earn new medals right away.
11/22/12
Please don't enter me. I'd just like to say congrats to you on getting to 300k :)
Thank you! I think it would've been 320k if you were still around... =(
11/22/12
Yup, he's still #1
I expected you to have way more medal points and a thousand more medals than I have, but you actually have both about as much more than I have. That's pretty surprising to me.
It's time for you to play the games a little longer. Completing games is fun!
11/21/12
Are you still #1 in terms of medals?
Yeah, wish I had some competition for the #1 spot though.
11/21/12
Congratulations Nijsse! :)
You did it.
11/21/12
Me?
11/21/12
Me please?
Pretty please?
11/21/12
Congrats on 300,000 medal points that is a lot.
