Are you referring to donating to the Halloween Spooktacular? I don't see anything in the log.

We’re all going broke, it’s why humans do things for money!
Fulp, I know this sounds a bit flawed, but trust me it won't cost you ANY money, its a great idea and it worked before in the industry(ps. it's what created some of the biggest franchises in gaming!)! Bundle specifically-priced yearly supporter subscriptions with a free digital copy of either a game with your buddy Dan, the internally-developed Nightmare Cops and/or a highly anticipated 3rd-party tied to the site(I'm telling you, FNF can sell like hotcakes, so PLEASE consider including the Full-Ass Game in a supporter subscription)! I hope you elaborate this further than I can and PLEASE have you and contact Cam and co. to advertise such a value!
Grrrr. My last gift card doesn't have enough funds!

It’s no secret NG operates at a loss and is slowly working towards becoming self-sufficient, it’s why making Supporter more appealing with things like this is important!
no? you're thinking about google ads. you can even do bank transfers and cash app as well!
Heh. Tom you sneaky fiend. How'd you manage that I wonder?

We aren't selling access to porn, which is what would be against the terms. This is a big reason why we don't do something like a Patreon system, because while Patreon somehow gets away with breaking the payment provider terms, I don't think NG would get away with it and it would be hell to police all the artists here.

I'm confused by the wording. Are you saying you aren't allowing people to make money off pornographic content or that you're not going to do away with making money off pornographic content because you do.

NG does not restrict access to its adult content behind a paywall, which would be against PayPal’s terms

Oh darn I somehow missed it all?! I looked around to see where this feature was but I could not find it..

Unless I misunderstood, the feature will return every Tuesday from now on.
An archive for past Takeover Tuesdays will become available in the foreseeable future.

There’s always next Tuesday!
What if the Artist News box’s Takeover Tuesday archive also showed like “X days (EST) until next Takeover Tuesday”?

Right! Though I still wonder where did this thing show up to click in on this takeover tuesday thing?

just to be clear, there is no paywall. you need an account to view A rated content, that's it.

That was pretty cool. I thought it was too chaotic and fast-paced at first but I still ended up finding (and liking) a bunch of stuff I didn't know about before, so it definitely works. I think I'll start keeping a list of things I could feature during these, it'll be like an all year round Treasure Hunt.
Luckly I have multiple supporter accounts so I can cheat this and mostly play all my stuff on Tuesday. Idgaf! First post also

There may have to be a no refund policy for abuse of Takeover Tuesday in that way :P

You can always just sponsor a monthly prize, Luis - Fulp will happily shill your shit for $100 a month.

Takeover Tuesday is a new weekly event, where every Tuesday, anyone who is a Supporter will have the ability to feature one movie, game, art or audio on the front page.
The archive page is currently in the works and will appear as a link under the Artist News box, along with another Takeover Tuesday surprise.
Monthly Voting
Voting is in progress for the Best of September and winners will be announced on Monday, October 14th! Between Monday and Tuesday, next week will be off to an exciting start.
If you missed the Best of August, we overhauled our voting system and introduced categories for art and music.
Halloween Spooktacular
Our Halloween Spooktacular is in progress and we’d love more sponsors to increase the prizes!
If you have the means and love Halloween, donate on our Supporter page and PM me a heads up you donated towards the Spooktacular. You can also specify which category.
Other Stuff
Throughout all this, lots of under the hood changes continue to roll out. If you noticed some brief downtime earlier, it was that!
wow
Me after spending 2.99 just to get in on Takeover Tuesday and to get my hexagon back: Stonks 😎
The event went very well, from my perspective! I'm excited for more!
@TomFulp, I am well aware that I am completely insane, but I see that the format has changed to green to match the header, as audio is represented in that color. I notice this was implemented today. How did this decision come about? I do like it!

Josh fixed that to match the other portals doing that.
Would it be possible to incentivize the submitting of lesser-known content to this weekly event? I saw a lot of obscure stuff while it was happening, but once the repeat submission category turned on it just became a second front page spot for Punch Punch Forever and some other popular stuff. I think utilizing Supporter power could really boost the underrated content here.
Someone please help me revive my clubs
