Fellow Monks,
following a short discussion in CB I write this node probably as the last productive thing this year :-) I did a Super Search on this but didn't find anything (probably only due to wrong search terms, there must have been a similar discussion already, er?)

Today I (like others) reached a new level. I was eagerly awaiting it for several days and it just happened. I'd consider it cool if there would be a Congratulation You Are Now a LevelTitleHere-page when you log in the next time after you reached a new level. This screen could point you to the nodes describing your new powers (if there are some) or could show a (more or less) random very cool node, or some new nodes (since the last level reaching) which might be important within the system or other useful things...

Furthermore I'd think we could increase the fun factor if there would be this or that goodie for every level. Maybe other monks could think of cool ideas what those could be. It need not be useful, maybe just funny. I for example would like the power to paint mustaches on the pictures of other monks - but of course only a true saint would be worthy for this power *grin*.
Well, yeah you get the point, I think.

What do you think?
And what has been thought before (translates to: what nodes discussing this have I overlooked)?

Regards... Stefan
you begin bashing the string with a +42 regexp of confusion
