Forum mod? Nah I think there are better candidates around. And I don't think they're needing any new forum mods at the moment anyway :p

You know you want that gold aura.

It does look good, but I like my red one as well ;)

Congrats! Seems a lot of Wi/Ht regulars (and even more important LUL regulars!) get modded lately.

Thanks. And yeah we've been seeing a lot of new moderators around here. I wouldn't be surprised if we see some more in the near future, I think the Icon Mods are gonna need all the help they can get.

Maybe this is your year - Brazil, Uruguay and then Argentina for you :P

The semi-final seems to be a rather easy one on paper, but I thought the same thing about the quarter-final against Russia two years ago (which we lost 3-1).

And you guys got a great team on paper. I heard a lot of English people wanna see Capello and the players leave, but I don't see who they want to replace the players for.

My dad was talking this over with me - he said that Aston Villa would have done better as a team than England. He picked on the Villa, because they're mostly English in their squad, though I did point out that we'd have no goalie :P

Well at least you would have a real team already and not a bunch of selfish glory hunters scraped together.

Well, that only really leaves Argentina and Germany - Brazil aren't as strong as they used to be, though they have got the Dutch next...

I can see them winning from us and in the semi-final they would have to face Uruguay or Ghana. Difficult opponents, but probably not as difficult as having Germany or Spain. So I think they can make it to the finals at least, although I am hoping for Holland of course.

Well, we'll have to see - no game is predictable, except maybe Portugal / North Korea ;)

You're right there. We'll have to see this Friday. Last time we met Brazil (1998) it came down to penalties. The Brazilian team has weakened a bit since then while the Dutch team might be stronger than ever. So maybe we got a good shot at winning this one :)

Today's games, I'll be going for Paraguay and Portugal.

Portugal? I hope not. I don't like Portugal much to be honest. Mostly because of Christiano Ronaldo, but they got a lot of dirty players as well. I prefer to see Spain win.

I'm glad they're out, to be honest. They don't deserve to win, with a cheating player like Ronaldo playing for them.

Me too. Almost the entire Portuguese team consists of dirty players if you ask me, but Ronaldo with his fame and him being the captain of the team, he should behave himself. Spitting at camera's after losing, whining for a free kick every time he loses the ball, stuff like that just shows what a poor example for other players he is. In my opinion he's very overrated and doesn't deserve his stardom.

I agree with you on Paraguay though. Japan is a good team, but Paraguay seems more solid to me.

So close, so much for Japan's mastery of the Jabilani

Yep. I'm surprised they got so close. I thought Paraguay would wrap this game with a solid 2-0 or something, but it came down to penalties.

Lol. Well he is behaving himself quite well in the WC so far, but I wouldn't like to see him win either. If he does I think he will never shut-up about it.

He's the footballing equivalent of Axl Rose - too mouthy. He told Pele to fuck off to the museum. Perhaps he should consider the same thing? After all, he's only remembered for being a cheat in England.

You're talking about that hand ball that won them the match right?

He's too mouthy indeed and he behaves much more like a player than a coach.

They must! Penicorns have had enough attention, now we need dragons with swords for dicks!

Wednesday at midnight, they said? Not much longer now.

I guess they'll leave it open till tomorrow now.

Anytime now!

I know several game reviewers but things seem to be dying out and it's come to the point where the only game reviewer I'm watching these days is AVGN and hopefully Spoony if I can get back into his videos. Trying his FFX reviews was a horrible idea. I'll give his other reviews a watch but icon modding duties are a higher priority.

Well I think a problem people might be having with Spoony right now is that he's videos are getting longer and longer. They used to take only 10~20 minutes, but nowadays he easily rambles on for 40+ minutes (extreme case: a 3+ hours long Let's play of a board game). It's mostly the enthusiasm from his side though that makes his videos so long, which isn't a bad thing, but he should consider keeping it shorter and splitting up videos.

I have avoided some of his videos due to the length of them. Kinda funny I say that since I find his LP of Phantasmagoria 2 to be the best Let's Play ever made! But yeah, I skip most of his vlogs due to the time lengths.

Anyway I think the first FFX video was nice, but he seemed to be rushing through the game in the second which is too bad. Hopefully the third part will be better.

I dunno about this one. Sometimes I think he's just rushing through this game just so he can put an end to all the requests he's received for this game but on the other hand, some of the complaints make me think he's trying too hard here. I can tell he's trying to find every little thing to make the game look bad and that's when the review doesn't seem natural.

Finish those games? Haha! Most of the time he relies on a game genie to beat the games and he only has so many games to try and convince people that he's an expert in gamer, which he isn't.

So he often cheats his way through them? That is lame. You could at least finish them for your own fun.

Yeah, he even stated in his Top 5 NES games that he has to use a game genie in order to beat Kid Icarus and claims it's still hard with cheats.

We've got a huge problem known as the Conservatives. They plan to raise the VAT to 20% as well as cutting down on benefits. This means the poor people are going to be fucked in the ass and I wouldn't be surprised if they made it easier on the rich people. However, I couldn't really trust Labour party this time around, especially when they've failed to deliver their promises several times. The worst one being their promise to get young adults to get jobs much easier. If that's the case, WHERE'S MY FUCKING JOB?! As for Liberal Democrats, the party leader sold out.

I see. Well at least you guys only got three parties to choose from right? Much better system in my opinion.

We have more parties than that but those are the three main ones. The other notable one is the British National (sorry, I meant Nazi) Party and they are so bad that if they ever took control of this country, I WILL leave Britain for good and so would my sister and her fiance. After all, her fiance was born in Burma and came to London to study and has been there since.

They seem to be more interested in robots. I mean, they're all fans of Transformers and they even made a robot day. Dragons on the other hand, they have nothing but hopefully they see dragons as awesome as robots.

Yes, and Streetfighter. But there are no dragons in Streetfighter, are there?

I shouldn't have forgotten Street Fighter. Some of them are obsessed with the franchise that this site pays a lot of homages to Street Fighter. As for any dragons, the closest would be the name Ryu.

Oddly enough, spell check does more harm than good for me. Whether I have British or American dictionary settings, I sometimes use American spellings and it makes it awkward for me.

Viva la revolution, indeed. First, General and now Icon Moderation; by next year, you'll be one of the Staff, Coop will be an Art Mod, Fro will win a Tank Award, and I'll be on a beach sipping on mimosas enjoying the spoils of war. Ha!

2500 B/P - Private! :D I also got a bronze whistle today and reached level 10.

7,777 Blams!

Only 2,223 Blams to go and 184 days to do it in to reach my goal.

Staff Sergeant!

Been a while since I last hit a decent milestone, but looks like I just hit 22,000B/P!

Sorry, Zoete.

I almost missed getting on today but it's my third year anniversary of making my NG account.

I also passed 7k saves today :)

Thanks for voting, LadyX! Your experience has been automatically deposited!

With that vote, you now have 10,670 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 32.

Damn, it's way too hot outside. And worst of all, the house gets painted so this means there's a scaffold in front of my windows. And if THAT wouldn't be enough there's also a tarpaulin, so I can't even look outside.
But due to this setup the heat really builds up over the day and it get's nearly unbearable inside the flat...

Yeah, the ball got hit to centre field, the birds took flight, one of them got clunked by it. The centre fielder lost the ball and it sailed past him, allowing the D'Backs to win. I'm sure it was Arizona.

Seems it happenes from time to time at baseball games. I just searched for "bird gets hit by baseball" and found two videos... poor birds.
Anyway, I was thinking about this incidence.

That's about the only series of him I have yet to watch. I have watched an episode or two a long time ago, but it didn't interest me that much. Probably because the game itself wasn't that interesting in my opinion (or at least not in the beginning).

Anyway I think the first FFX video was nice, but he seemed to be rushing through the game in the second which is too bad. Hopefully the third part will be better.

I can tell he's trying to find every little thing to make the game look bad and that's when the review doesn't seem natural.

Yeah I think all those impatient people would drive me crazy, but he doesn't want to disappoint his fans I guess.

But yeah, he's rushing through it. I wish he would go a little more in depth about things, like he did on Triple Triad and the drawing system in his FFVIII review. He had whole episodes dedicated to them. Although the first 7 episodes of that review series were all about disk 1 and the last 3 covered the rest, so he also rushed through them in the end.

Finish those games? Haha! Most of the time he relies on a game genie to beat the games and he only has so many games to try and convince people that he's an expert in gamer, which he isn't.

Yeah, he even stated in his Top 5 NES games that he has to use a game genie in order to beat Kid Icarus and claims it's still hard with cheats.

I heard that game was really hard though :p

But yes, if he wants to be taken seriously he should beat those games without cheats or at least try.

I see. Well at least you guys only got three parties to choose from right? Much better system in my opinion.

We have more parties than that but those are the three main ones. The other notable one is the British National (sorry, I meant Nazi) Party and they are so bad that if they ever took control of this country, I WILL leave Britain for good and so would my sister and her fiance. After all, her fiance was born in Burma and came to London to study and has been there since.

Haha sounds similar to Geert Wilders' party, who blame all our trouble on the Muslims. I think parties like that are popping up everywhere in Europe at the moment. It makes me wonder if people learned anything at all from their history books about WW II.

But anyway, when you move out of Britain I'm not sure if you could find any better place to go to. Except for Germany maybe :p

They seem to be more interested in robots. I mean, they're all fans of Transformers and they even made a robot day. Dragons on the other hand, they have nothing but hopefully they see dragons as awesome as robots.

Viva la revolution, indeed. First, General and now Icon Moderation

It just shows how serious we are about taking over Newgrounds. It wasn't just General we wanted to invade.

; by next year, you'll be one of the Staff

What can I offer to the staff?

Coop will be an Art Mod

Why an art mod? Maybe the Literature Portal will be out in a year's time.

Fro will win a Tank Award

He'll be putting Adam Phillips to shame with his upcoming work. :P

and I'll be on a beach sipping on mimosas enjoying the spoils of war. Ha!

I bet the rest want to know where they'll be.

No, it's not angry enough.

But why does he need to be angry?

Yeah penicorns are overrated anyway. Dragons with swords for dicks would wipe the floor with them.

Of course they will. They have fucking sword dicks! Sounds much more powerful than anything the penicorns can hold.

Anytime now!

Still waiting...

It's locked now so I'm excited.

I have avoided some of his videos due to the length of them. Kinda funny I say that since I find his LP of Phantasmagoria 2 to be the best Let's Play ever made! But yeah, I skip most of his vlogs due to the time lengths.

That's about the only series of him I have yet to watch. I have watched an episode or two a long time ago, but it didn't interest me that much. Probably because the game itself wasn't that interesting in my opinion (or at least not in the beginning).

It does have a slow start and while the game sucks overall, Spoony just makes it more amusing so if you have the time, give it a second chance. From the sounds of it, you only saw 20 minutes of it so definitely see more of it.

Triple Triad and the drawing system in his FFVIII review. He had whole episodes dedicated to them. Although the first 7 episodes of that review series were all about disk 1 and the last 3 covered the rest, so he also rushed through them in the end.

Although the last few parts ended up rushing through the game, I really liked Spoony's FFVIII review for pointing out real gameplay issues.

It makes me wonder if people learned anything at all from their history books about WW II.

They obviously didn't and they never will learn from it.

But anyway, when you move out of Britain I'm not sure if you could find any better place to go to. Except for Germany maybe :p

I'm not too sure about Germany. Sorry Haggard.

And Ryu is just a guy isn't he?

Ry%u016B, the Japanese word for a Japanese dragon

Close enough.

It is good day to be giant man.

Maybe one day you can be a real mod. I think you deserve forum mod status.

In my opinion an icon mod is a real mod. They do a lot of work and don't get very much credit for it. It's the type of work that I love. :)

Hm, life was an icon mod before they went on the whole icon modding spree. For some reason I don't think he makes many icons a day. :P

Viva la revolution, indeed. First, General and now Icon Moderation; by next year, you'll be one of the Staff, Coop will be an Art Mod, Fro will win a Tank Award, and I'll be on a beach sipping on mimosas enjoying the spoils of war. Ha!

Muhahahahaha. Just imagine what will happen when the Lit. Portal comes out with Coop being so active in the Writing Forum.

I'll make the congrat list tomorrow since I have to go in like 30 minutes and I haven't done my 20 daily icons, and also, port a NG flash game guide to the wiki :P

YEAH GET BACK IN YOUR ROOM AND MAKE YOUR WIKI OR I'LL BAN YOU FROM YOUR WIKI EDITING POWERS!!!

Congrats and welcome. Sadly, I think chris-marks is going to take a break here soon. It might have been bad timing.

He'll be putting Adam Phillips to shame with his upcoming work. :P

I've already forgotten who he was. Didn't he do something about a wild frog and a lilly pad?

This month's Art Review list is up for your viewing pleasure.

July already?; Congrats to:

Welcome. :)

What can I offer to the staff?

Taking over Stamper's job of doing whatever he does.

Why an art mod? Maybe the Literature Portal will be out in a year's time.

Yeah, Lit Portal Mod is better. I had to pick between Art and Audio and Art was the first thing that came to mind.

I bet the rest want to know where they'll be.

Breaking out my soothsayer crystal ball again: Idiot-buster and SirNuts will continue as is, the same with Auz except as a Review Mod, letiger will pester Coop until he get permabanned by him, Gagsy will finally be a Wi/Ht Reg, NEVR will leave NG to become a Hawaiian Tropic Judge, Haggard will pull a gfox and do epic catch-ups from time to time, and not to mention I'll be triple listed some where along the way.

I'm usually good at putting it off until it's a jungle. The thought of hauling my ancient and heavy mower is enough motivation.

You entered the top 3000 in Experience Points. Outstanding!

Blams: 25,235
Saves: 50,875

Total: 76,110. "What is significant about that?", I hear you cry. Those of you that have been following it, will know that as of tomorrow morning, when Newgrounds stats update themselves on the servers, I'll be ranked #20 for B/P

Now I've got to keep on building and catch me a Phantom, before really starting to set my sights on the mighty Bahamut.

100 Art Reviews!

Wilhelm's left middle toe is hurting a ton from a mysterious running injury. Congrats to:

Oddly enough, spell check does more harm than good for me. Whether I have British or American dictionary settings, I sometimes use American spellings and it makes it awkward for me.

Thanks to a sub-par education system, most people are utterly dependent on it, even many adults. It's clear that my friends never proof-read from peer editing assignments, which seem more like spelling and grammar assignments than an idea and organization critique. Illinois' education isn't the best.

Germany is a wonderful place. :P
But if you are concerned about right winged partys, I guess you're right. We have the NPD, DVU and some other very small partys that hardly don't get any attention at all. But NPD and DVU are very strong in the eastern parts of Germany.
