15) Getting to that other dimension in Half-life

16) Reaching Cydonia

17) Seeing the ork ending cutscene in DoW2 retribution. Fun! :D

Someone will correct me if I'm not 100% accurate but I believe you receive 1 rep point every day that you post at least one new message or reply into the forums, and I think you can also gain one additional rep point per day (or lose one) by having one of your posts up or down rated with +/-. You might also get points for providing the solution to a problem someone has asked and flagged you as the solution.

Something like that anyway.

BUMP!
