Hey guys, just popping in quickly to wish everyone here in the EGB a happy New Year, and also to thank every member of the Barracks for their fine work in 2010.

Happy new year too and thanks RohantheBarbian, it will be ten years since I first found Newgrounds and it has changed lots since then mostly for the better. I wont be celebrating new year never do but I hope to get my new badge within the next few months. 2012 will be next year kinda scary and the threads you see for that are many. With Red Dead Redemption not sure I like the missions with killing animals.

Yet another person trying to pass choco break as their work

Seriously what are these people thinking?

Where is this thing originally coming from? I'm guessing it's somewhere in the Clickteam.com site, but... damned if I can find it.

I love the author's comments: "lol"
Seriously, that's the most generic Choco Break you can get.

Hey there, just passed here to say Happy New Year!! I know it's a bit late, but at least we're in the first day of the year, so, no problem!! :D

Good evening to you all.

Hi, Lizz! Happy New Year!

To be honest I'd forgotten about this roster, and well yes... It's 2:36am on the 2ND of January over in the UK (Sorry Coop :P), but I decided to post the roster anyway. I hope you are all well and that the Christmas period and new year piss up, has not taken it's toll THAT badly on your body. It's ground hog day for us all now. A New Year? Well yeah, but we're all working to make a living. Another day another dollar as the phrase goes right? ;)

Thanks for the post - you know we all appreciate the great work! I'm doing okay, and I look forward to 2011 being better than 2010. As for working - well, I've been working full time (or more) for many decades now, and I can tell you this: If I ever hit the lottery, I'll NEVER work another day again. I enjoy being a techno-geek, but selling chunks of my life for money just to survive is just demeaning.

Well for me I'm busy working, and wasting my life away instead of revising for my AS-Levels in a week and a half... Ouch. Yeah it's depressing, and yes it's getting me down... But my job is going great, and my girlfriend is doing fabulous. Yet it's just the little things in life which piss you off the most isn't it? Blah. Oh well then.

Don't get depressed - sometimes you have to shovel manure in your garden before you can see the flowers grow. Glad to hear that things are going well with your girlfriend. Treat her right, and everything else will fall into place!

Also, I hope to become a bit more active on NG as of the new year. I've already gained 2 B/P ranks in the past week I think, and a new level, so that's on the upside I guess. Plus I passed 10 Total votes! Muhaha! more power to the people who will use it best, yes? ;)

My minions grow stronger...er, I mean the EGB grows stronger as you climb the ranks. Feel the power - the power to blam... to control the destiny of helpless flashes. To eradicate works of others at the whim of your desires. Come, join me in the dark side...you know you want to....hehehehe....

Well yeah, I hope all of the EGB has had a wonderful holiday and I wish you ALL the best throughout 2011 and I hope that this year, is what you will all make of it. May it be filled with laughter and excitement with the ones you love. Relationships will be made, bonds will be broken and you'll find those who will stick them back together again... But hey.... That's all a way of life isn't it? Haha.

Same to you, my friend. Nothing but the best!

So, I'll leave you with your roster. I apologise it's a little late Coop. :P

Okay - now stop apologizing already!

Enjoy!

Milestones::

Holy crap! Congrats to all who made a mark - nice round of activity there, folks!

Promotions::

Well done and well deserved! *Salutes*
Congrats to all of you!

Entering The List::
Jolly

Welcome to the EGB! Please leave your sanity at the door. You won't be needing it in here at all!

Leaving The Barracks::
No members retired this month.

Yay! The EGB got a +1 this time. Nice!

BARRACKS ROSTER AND REPEAT GAINERS

Looks like we've all had a busy month. SeeD419 is definitely hammering away, but he has a long way to go to keep pace with Coop and me. Wow. I can't believe I've been in the "repeat" list for 2 years - and next month, Coop will be there as well! Congrats on that, Coop! Nice to see I'm not the only lonely geek in the club!

Overall, a very good month and a very good ending to 2010. Just one little thing, though - has anyone heard from our illustrious and benevolent leader, the ever kind and wise - and now absent - EagleRock? He had NO activity last month, and I haven't seen a post from him in a while. I hope he's okay - if anyone has more details, or has IM'd him recently, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks again, Lizz, for the roster. Happy New Year to all of you - it is an honor and a privilege to serve shoulder-to-shoulder will every one of you!

*Salutes*

As you were...

Happy New Year!

I know I'm 23 hours late but still, here's hoping for a better year.

Manly advice for those who might have a random encounter one day.

What did you guys do one New Year's eve?

And good evening to you too. Good job on the list, and if I may so request, perhaps I could squeeze my way back into it once more?

And by the way,

this has me upset since the company that made it seems to have been closed by now but I checked US copyright law and there's no doubt, it's nowhere near public domain, so it IS stolen since the submitter has nothing to do with the creation of the game.

He also has two more of their games submitted only because they were shut down apparently.

Just to be sure, this is a mark as stolen right?

I'd say so. He's taking clever but unlawful advantage of the fact the company that made the game was shut down and their site demolished back to the original domain ad-space. Copyrights made after 1978 and published last for the lifetime of the author or 75 years, whichever is longer, some more conditions exist, but obviously a 2006 copyright is still not public domain and IS theft.

Fair enough, but I thought I'd be sure that's what you were saying. Did you PM someone about the other ones? They're from 2004, so I doubt anyone is aware of them.

I figured let's start with finding out about this one, then if it checks out as I think it will, someone in touch with Wade like Coop could make sure the rest are deleted as well.

Thanks for the update, Lizzardis.

I may have slowed down a bit, but I'm still in the game.

Well, I'm fine with waiting on things like that - I'd have finished my first day of 2011 by then and helped to get a nice boost in the standings. Problem being that it'll cripple me for next month :P

85k isn't too far adrift and that will see me up towards some of the other people I'm chasing down on the top of the main list. Still, the Blams totals have jumped up a little over the past few days, so perhaps that's a very good sign.

Top 5 Gainers::
byteslinger - 1,942
SeeD419 - 1,792
Coop - 1,590
Cootie - 1,329
Ismael92 - 954

SeeD seems to have pushed me down to third place on a more-or-less permanent basis. That should be manageable, so long as Cootie doesn't catch me as well.

Top gainers, repeat appearances::
byteslinger (24)
Coop (23)
Ismael92 (10)
Cootie (3)
SeeD419 (2)

2 year marker coming up! Sweet.

Thanks for the roster Lizz!! :)

Feeling awesome in this new year, too bad I have only 1 month until the end of my vacations... :'(, but anyways, it'll be a fucking awesome year, I hope. :)

Also, congrats everybody in the EGB, specially to byte, who's keeping that fucking awesome 2 year streak and to Coop that will reach that fucking awesome 2 years streak. :D

Whistle as inappropriate, shows a hairy mans ass and dick. Weird as hell....

Auto spawns dozens of new tabs on your browser. Crashed Opera for me, which is highly inconvenient.

Hey all,

Just thought I'd pop in to say some hellos to everyone while I'm still here. Had tons of internet and computer related problems lately, but I've been swell otherwise. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, happy New Year, and all that jazz. I see I'm still on the roster, heheh. How is everyone?

Some random hentai clip. Obviously not his, "legal content" bullshit or not.

Nice list posting Lizz, and Happy New Year to all. I'm currently finishing up college with a Chemistry course, and I'll be a graduate by the end of the month (hopefully!).

In the past couple of weeks I've accumulated more B/Ps than I have in the entirety of the past year (around 600 or so) in hopes to reach a new tier of rankings. I hope to have them by tomorrow as I'm roughly 60 or so away by this point. Hope is all well and good with everyone here! Next time I post I'll be a Praporschik (sp.?)

Thanks for this months roaster I still find it weird to see the date 2011 ,happy new year though to all at Newgrounds. I see the layout is back to normal I'm glad was getting a little fed up with the xmas one. Don't like new year much but I did catch up with TheWeebl's On The Months episodes. Quite funny I like the series would love to see Salad Fingers or another Blockhead miss the classics.

Wow! Good to hear from so many "old friends" from the days of Barracks Past. Phantom has lived up to his name and appeared out of nowhere; Coop and RogerBK have become chattier and made their presence known; Andrea and APF also popped up and brightened our day. Then, of course, who can forget the lovable Sheize (and his hammer)?

It's also good to see all of the newest recruits really working hard and contributing to the improvement of the overall health and well-being that is Newgrounds.

For all those working so hard, and for all of those who have returned, I say "Well done, indeed!"

• Unsuitable Submission

  This submission contains age-rated material and requires an account to view.

What would this count as? It's an animated GIF that I have seen before, except that the author did

nothing

to lower the file size, added Justin Beiber onto the gif.

Seriously, what did I just watch?

At 1/5/11 12:30 AM, Ronald-McDonald-LoL wrote: Seriously, what did I just watch?

It seems like it was a Chat roulette attempt to score boobs by placing a chick (bird) next to a snake. This Gif version however covers it up with Justin Bieber. It's weird but I think it's legal and all. a GIF per se isn't against the NG policy and nor is the footage of the snake eating.

From that point on it seems dependent on user votes. It's no masterpiece, but unless you know someone else as the actual author, it's difficult to point it out as stolen.

Hmmm, byte, I'm not an old member of the club, but good to see you noticed my presence here... :P

And speaking on Eagle, he's online at Steam, I believe only me and Cobra are EGB friends of him on Steam, and I can see right now he's online, but most of times he's away, so, I think he's working a lot. We all need money, isn't it?? :P

Also, good to see the old layout is back, I almost forgot NG is orange, and not blue, also, my aura is way better than that old one. I love blue aura, it remembers me my eyes. :)

So, keep on B/Ping fellow EGBers. ;)

Here's a fun one:

It's a short, few second long loop, with screaming music. Does this count as stolen?

I occasionally like to grace you all with my presence. Besides I still am on that list and Supra just claimed my spot while I wasn't looking, but I've caught back up in the game and I am currently a mere 23 B/Ps from my next rank. WTB 23 shitty flashes asap.

Speaking of claimed spots, may I smilingly introduce you all to the NEW #19 of the B/P list now that I've gotten Rule out of the way. I know the only person with more points is Coop, but keep in mind I've actually been away for a while...

Anyhow I'm still burdened by how much spam still passes, and if you look at the scores they are about as low as possible to pass and still they pass. But that will be taken care of eventually.
