The author's comments made set off the feeling in my gut it was stolen but if you need more proof
Here is a link to the original

Make that double time, yo.
Porting a game does not make it yours.

This game was stolen from a user named Blips. Here is the original game on Newgrounds:

Sorry I mean are the other submissions his? He has many so its hard to tell the other one in the link got flagged. The comment gave it right away. Looking online I did not find much info about this author Griffin-Productions need to look more maybe.

I'd literally make posts that took up every character of nothing but links. I can remember two nights where I found jackpots of around 300 or 400 abusive reviews and had all of them deleted immediately by Hippo and Kidray.
300, 400? Nice but nowhere what I pulled in the old says. I could and still do 1,000 plus if I wanted but B/P takes up most of my time now. I miss the old abusive review thread as it was my safe haven but mindless statwhores (meaning the bad ones) had to ruin it by flagging blindly in the hope of getting a deity whistle. I was not saying that I wasn't a big whistle whore back in the day, but unlike those mindless ones I did it correctly.
It literally took 7 days for me to go from normal to deity.
You got Deity a whole lot faster then I did. It took me about 11 months to get my Deity whistle which I held onto for over 4 years myself.
Why it took me so long I think you might know.

God, Im happy I have you guys to back me up I think there was at least 6 stolen flashes submitted to the portal within the period of 10 minutes. I think it has to do with the fact that it's Valentine's day and they think no one will notice lol luckily you guys are here too, thanks for the help *salutes*

It was Ramagi's Iron hold of the deity whistle that took you that long. And shortly after you took the lead it stopped being a one user deal. Sometimes things just aren't fair.

I know but if they didn't change it NG would be in worse shape then it is now. Remember by the old whistle system the top user had the power to weaken every user's whistle power below them and let's face it I was a flagging monster back then.
With me constantly flagging abusive reviews and flash gaining whistle points a lot faster then everyone else flash thieves wouldn't have to much trouble getting stuff through even if a lot of people knew the stuff was stolen because they would have so little whistle power. It would also be harder for the masses to get abusive reviews to show up on the Mod's radar so unless they PM a mod showing them the reviews they would be screwed.
The worst of it all is while I would have been doing the right thing by flagging, I would also be shooting it in the leg as well talk about double edged if you know what I mean.
This way however I can still help NG and I won't be hurting my fellow users in the process. So while it sucked that I lost the pimp effect Ng won't suffer because of me having it.
Resubmission Alert
What's the policy for resubmitted flashes? This one has been blammed three times now, and it's in the obits:
The automatic portal ban for 2 blams is obviously being avoided with alts. There's absolutely NO change to the flash on the last two submissions.

Wade said some time ago not to bother flagging resubmits. Just vote 0 and move on. However with the current state that the portal is in, the person is most likely thinking post it enough times and eventually the mindless statwhore will pass it through the portal. I already gave that piece of shit it's 0 so I did my part.
However since you have proof that the guy is breaking the rules I would suggest you send an email to wade with the proof. I am not sure if it would do any good as I never seen or heard of a case like this before, but maybe Wade will do something about it.

From the rules:
Do not re-submit your entry after it has been BLAMMED without making noticeable improvements. It will be flagged! If your movie violates any of the following rules, it will be removed and your account may be deleted.
That ought to clear things up here.
Thought I'd tip the EGB off as well that
same flash again was submitted to the portal, after being blammed numerous times
And he's submitted it a third time.
Ridiculous. I think this is beyond simply voting 0.

I flagged it, because this is just turning into an abusive spam situation (correct me if I'm wrong)..

Man this take me back to when they were submitting big bag into the portal for I don't know how many times. The only thing this is doing besides getting annoying is uping everyone blam points. But still I would rather get them with just crappy enties not resmitted shit.
In fact if I am counting right this guy has submitted this 5 times within two days. He seriously needs to get deleted for this.

The thing Washu is talking about is this, which I'm fairly sure was written after the portal submission rules were finalised.
I suppose, in this case, it doesn't matter since they've all been blammed anyway, but I'm not so sure about taking the portal submission rules on face value alone whenever resubmits are involved.

Six separate times. The only improvement was a background.
Well, looks like I have a new loser to put on my Whistling Guide. Thanks Ronald. :)
The guy even admits the work isn't his. He says that this is a video clip from a game that never made it and he found it on the internet. So he is posting it here for us to watch. If that isn't enough then I will try to find more solid evidence as well.

Is English your first language? Even if this isn't made by him, the intro makes it sound like he is just introducing the clip that way, not clearly stating that this isn't his work. I'm pretty sure that isn't the original intro video for that game. It's the same one that produced the all your base are belong to us parody which celebrated it's tenth anniversary today.
This is why I don't whistle anything unless I see an original...

How the fuck do TWO old regulars fail to recognise this? English clean-up or not, it's plainly not his own work.

Ok while I didn't see that flash before on NG in fact I didn't even know it was NG to begin with. Also I was the one who posted the link as it being stolen by the comment of him admitting it wasn't his. In fact I blew the whistle after reading the comments since he admitted he wasn't his!

Have you watched the two? All yor base r blong 2 us is hardly the artist's own sprite work - it's the zero wing introduction. Yes, it's a kind of tribute to all your base, but that's only to be expected, as it's 10 years yesterday, since that was released.
Granted, that's probably the original footage and I'll speak to Wade about it later, but you can't cite that flash as stolen from that source, Sheizen.
Sorry for the long layoff all. I'm still lurking from time to time, but RL intrudes. Hopefully I'll be somewhat more active over the next few weeks, but I just thought I hadn't posted here in quite a while.

True, the two are different, but it does make it clear that the former isn't the author's own work at any rate. Which should've been obvious, given how famous the AYB flash became. I just found it weird that people weren't recognising the video, all things considered.

No it doesn't. My point was exactly the same as Coop's. The flash submitted yesterday could be modified in the same way that the all your base are belong to us flash was. There's no proof because there is no original.
I even mentioned the flash you pointed to in my post sheizen, saying it's the tenth year anniversary of it, don't tell me I didn't make the association.
