Say what, Pop-Tart the OG, potentially unawares of this here central ranking aspect of this site?! :O Though made for a really conducive and easily understandable intro @ZomAlien. Nicely done.

Medal point increases are a thing to commemorate too, though I suppose you know of those? And reviews? And posts? I see you're on NG Logs so I suppose you also know of those: https://www.wkrconcepts.com/nglogs/index.php?id=lists

The Wiki has some fundamental info on judgement too: https://www.newgrounds.com/wiki/help-information/user-accounts/blams-and-saves

It is a long step from Gold to Deity too. Remember it felt like it took ages to get that final jump way back when.

Apart from the very sensible content flagging suggestion there's also the review thing. if ever you see reviews with just a single slur or swear word and zero stars those are definitely abusive. If you stumble upon one of those you can check the rest of that user's reviews; occasionally that's all they've been posting. Those used to be the real treasure trove of flags back in the day...

Maaybee I had a bit more of an understanding than I let on. But you guys certainly added a lot more details. So I thank you.

I guess I just don't think about it much. I try to vote on about ten under-judgement submissions a day to keep the Portal moving. And I vote how I feel. I suppose I could be smarter.

For instance - - when I see a 15-second 'rated A' submission that someone threw together in SFM, I may vote one star because that's what it earned. Well, those rarely get blammed because there are too many people that favor those types of submissions... so it would help my save points if I gave it a two.

You probably knew it all hmm. Classic clockery!

Yeaah in regard to A-rated submissions I do find myself voting more in accordance to how I know they'll fare then how I really feel about them... not too high though, a 2-3's enough to save. You can always change your score at a later time if you wish to too...

Unfortunately a lot of submissions I do like seem to not make it just cause they're a bit unpolished otherwise. People don't seem to value originality or creativity as much as aesthetic appeal - especially when said work's submitted by some lesser known user. There was this little Madness series recently with characters made up more of circles with thick outlines that I really tried to get through, almost looked like a new Poninjas, but alas, too many B/P hunters, and too many Madness test animations by new users that aren't worth saving have probably skewed voting habits there too.

I think overall users are getting a bit more blam happy though; it's finally starting to balance out years of a bit too favorable voting just to get Save points. You need to actually consider your votes to get points now. the vote-high-on-everything tactic no longer equates better gains.

Sounds like voting the way you vote's the right way to vote though! No need to participate just for these competitive points. Pretty activity rewarding though they are.

#36 in EXP

Hey @gfoxcook, how about this one? 😁

Congrats Murray!! Slowly making your way to the real top spots here...

Congrats!

what do you 6 years from level 34 to 35? it only takes about a couple months

i think you mean 6 years to level 60

Finally a month catch up for @Cyberdevil. 😃

Ah, well different matter there but you'd think all the wrestling politics be all acting. 😂

What, you mean like Game of Thrones? 😜

The whole thing is a fickle. By this point a great portion of the older age and at risk groups have been offered their first jabs and most have taken it up. Last I checked they were open to anyone as young as 38 to come forward for their jabs so I'm not so far off by this point. However, I'd much rather it was the Pfizer I'm given as the AstraZeneca can do one after all its issues.

Ahh makes a lot of sense that. I do like to have that digital detox but couldn't do it for that long. Apart from some quick check ups, I can very well have some time outs in the best opportunities.

Idk what happened with Boris' pub trip and quite frankly I shouldn't even care. I've had a lot of great beer garden sessions but sadly in the last two weeks the weather has taken for the worse. To be fair, the weather was somehow convenient with outdoor drinking to begin with in this period. Thought typical British weather would have fucked up all five weeks entirely.

That said, we'll be allowed to drink inside from Monday but concerns about the Indian variant have cropped up. Disruptions to June's reopenings won't be a surprise but everything else that has reopened there's no backsies from the plans. Just have to wait and see.

Cheers for that. Looking forward to working towards 64k within... 15-30 days. The double EXP months keep on coming to speed things up. 👍

Many thanks! Slowly is definitely right for the time being as I don't expect any more rank ups for a good while. Still, I'm happy enough with #36 here.

Hello shiny new Ban Hammer and level 57

165,000 B/P

Well if you give the submission a '1' it still saves the submission now after the 2018 voting system, it still gives a very low rating, not exactly the same when you vote '0' on it.

About the 15-second A rated submissions, I think in my opinion those animators/authors could have a potential to create a decent A rated submission, but those people use those tactics from YouTube with clickbait regarding the thumbnails and the animation. At that point, it is about clicks and views (even though this website is really private compared to YouTube), they know that the people would eat this up and have that submission saved.

It's been a year since I've made this account, and almost a year since I've started to be active again on this site. So far I've reached:

6.6k Exp

1k Blams

1.3k Saves

A shiny whistle

Almost 6 months of supporter

And almost a hundred reviews

Nicely done mate!

I have 11,337 Blams! SWEET!

Much obliged! :D

And a bit more obvious acting than regular politics. :)

Ahahah, touche. XD It is becoming pretty violent! Maybe that'll be what it turns into eventually.

In a way it does seem like all our dystopian sci-fi movies manifest themselves into reality overtime too. Either they really are prophetic or we are at least somewhat influenced by the things we see; the culture we grow up on...

Mmm, and they're offering vaccines to infants in some areas too, I don't really like where this is going. Seems like maybe the Sputnik V one might be the least harmful IMO. Would've been nice if the RNA ones could've at least gone through all phases of their clinical trials first, but of course time's a luxury that can't be spared. I really hope they're all relatively harmless even long-term.

Getting pretty difficult to get in a long enough detox here too these years. :) Got at least one month straight booked now though! The show of summer and all must somehow at least somewhat go on!

Restrictions didn't let up entirely as planned then? Haven't been hearing much of the UK on the news lately...

Over here theme parks and cinemas just opened again today, and my favorite (cheapest national) airline carrier Norwegian just started flying again, so hopefully hopefully it's looking up a bit...

Those antibacterial UV rays. Hope they work their magic this summer too.

Woah, a full month?! Didn't realize it'd been that long! Times like this it feels the yearly digital detox may be badly timed. XD

That's an awesome spot regardless.

It's crazy how high gains are getting otherwise too. Moving past 5,000 points/month on the hexalist now, over a thousand blams a month too, it really is a revival of sorts!

900 blams

So much goodness all gathered! Congrats!

It's the grand finale! :D Congrats GUTHRIE!

Ah whoops, yupp, that's probably what I was thinking there.

Congrats too! :)

Congraaats Viper!

And on this!

Go go go! Congrats DRD1982!

And Congrats again!

The ones of us who do vote are getting more points than ever right now though. :) Seems like around 4000/month tops when it comes to just B/P! Twice as much as just a couple years back.

Congrats x3!

Congrats!

Congrats!

Congrats MatthewMcChan!

What a bundle! Congrats Mikoma!

Nice!
