True. I have some medals due to glitches. Mostly counting issues like when it took me 5 deaths in last man to get the 'harder than lost levels' achievement... unless if that was meant to happen...

I think it's supposed to be 127. I know my time medals in the flying pig game are due to an internal counting error in the game's timer; it only looks at minutes, not hours.


Deploy the... it's a yellow button... it's usually flashing... it makes the engines go... whoosh!

When Pigs Fly was a horrible game. The controls just sucked. But Gretel & Hansel is very fun! I have all the medals now. Yay!!!

Yes, if you take 1 hour and 1 minute it will count as 1 minute. Makes the challenge pretty easy if you're patient.

Yes, can we please never talk about that game again?

Also, fail upcoming page...just see it and you'll understand what l'm talking about.

Damn that's so sick. I finally got that medal a few hours ago with 3.56 on the clock after lots of trying. I don't really care people got the medal the easy way, I just want that 3 hours of my life back! =(

It would help us a lot if you didn't use a meme or fad-word to describe what is wrong with the upcoming page.

http://www.newgrounds.com/upcoming.html

I see:
Tuesday, October 20th
Transformers 2 Spoof
Movie by Egoraptor

Which would be: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/51 5203

Wednesday, October 21st
Be here on Wednesday to find out!
Game by ???

And that of course was the gretel hansel game.

Your point?

That page might soon be full of information with millions of flashes announced. We need an upcoming medals game page.

I guess I agree with that. But that page is doing fine for now. Maybe when Medals are a more permanent thing, they'll make a better page.

crap, I'll have to keep playing, then leave my computer on for an hour. This still doesn't really help with the "no dying" situation. That pig needs to learn to close its wings and go through the many holes in this game (not glitches, visual holes)

And yes, we all want our wasted time back >.<

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-10-24 23:46:04


I had no idea about that in the game! I suppose i should try it.... but it sounds so boring. I really envy the people that have the skill to do that in less than 5 minutes, with no deaths, though :(.


Death Note, Code Geass, Bleach, One Piece, Full Metal Alchemist, and

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood are all awesome.

umm unless your a freak of nature, i think i'm referring to digdogy(whoever held the 3:13 record w/ Vid) you don't have to get both the time and no death medals together. The time one is by far the hardest medal i have gotten so far. Very close to "You Must Be Cheating" on stickya. However stickya was one of my favorites to play.

Also, I missed a few pages and being the lazy asshole i am, i'm not going back to read them. But did we pass 10,000 post without a whole big deal made out of it? Or did someone post "10,000th!!!"?

Well, YMBC becomes easy after you get some experience with the game...at first l hated the game, but after l got YBMC 3 more times, well, then it became just another medal game.
Oh, and on an unrelated note, I have FRAPS, and game recording forks fine, but I can't record, say, my desktop or something on the net....why?

Medals in Newgrounds don't have a purpose yet, for now they're just for show.

They are achievements. You fulfill a requirement in a game, you get the corresponding medal. Medals are worth points.
