Wait a minute...

I thought that taking a game, plastering different colors/designs on it, and submitting it were against the rules? This guy didn't make QWOP but here he is submitting it with a different character. How is this any different than those god-awful Madness Interactive "mods" we see every now and then?

Here's something you don't see every day. A '0' KB submission. A whole lot of nothing.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2012-08-03 16:44:43


That was close. A gamesgrow shit almost made it out of the portal.

Here's another one:

And one from that "soccerchamp" site:

The month gone by so quick now it is august and time for the Roaster again I have not gotten any change in b/p. Thanks for the list and, Spretznaz yes the account gamesgrow sure is annoying. Talking of games I have gotten really addicted to my PC game Plant Vs Zombies. Fantastic game very funny and playable. Funny how a simple concept works so well.

I caught 3 in one day! Glad I didn't catch this one though - I usually PM the author with the usual reasons why it didn't work: didn't convert fla to swf, and maybe why.....
Sucks to vote zero on 'em otherwise. How can you rate something that you can't see or play? I made that mistake in a review not so long ago, and got a nasty little bot message saying it had been deleted - can't vote zero in a review if there's no content to observe.


Vault 101 I have (LOST) many old and deleted Flash submissions, (you can't) PM me (dammit Tom) the filename, maybe I (godhelpmeonedayIwill) got it.

Welcome to the new guys, just managing to nose ahead of byte by seven points this time around. Upped my pace, which was also good.

I've now also lapped phantomlassuk, which is another noteworthy statistic.

Thanks for the update, byteslinger. Much appreciated

42 months. For three-and-a-half years, you have been the figurehead of B/Ping in this barracks, byte. Still cranking out the B/P and still fighting the good fight. I guess that I just proved that there is enough life in the old dog to end your streak, like you ended mine so cruelly about six months ago :P

Congratulations to you all!

Awesome, Thank You so much. I wish I could be super excited about this right now but as most of you already know, this has not been such a great week for me. I will probably remain a bit lowkey for the next couple of weeks or so, butrest assured I will dive in at the deep end when I return to full mental capacity.

Barracks Roster as of August 1st, 2012:
(New members will have data in next month's report)

Looking forward to it.

Entering The List (will be displayed next roster)::
PFC J-Rex
Corp. Jackho
Corp. Spretznaz

Yay. Congrats to you other guys.

Welcome guys, always good to see some new blood.

Promotions::
RohantheBarbarian - Sup. Commander

Finally made it to the top rank, at the pace I've been b/ping for the last year or two I thought I'd never get there haha.

The List:
No. B/P / Gain / Average / Level / Change / Username / Rank / Posts / Level
09) 30,130 | 0,257 | 08.29 | C | -015.74 | RohantheBarbarian Sup. Commander | 0 | F

Didn't post all month? Huh, will have to try and rectify that.

End of an era, I figured you were never gonna be pushed out short of a significant dropoff in activity. You make a good point though regarding others being active; it's excellent to see so many gains being made.

Thanks for the roster byte.

I can't even vote 0 on this one because it keeps spawning popups for me. I don't know what they are (just that its something to do with Adobe), because it spawns so many it crashes my computer.

Did you not notice that it was called Crash? I have a feeling it was named that for a reason. Sounds like you may need to upgrade your security. I didn't get one pop up. If you want to vote on it, you might try turning the Pop Up function on whatever browser your using, to the off setting, that will probably allow you access to it to vote.

I noticed the name, but didn't think the uploader was gonna be some kinda royal a-hole who just wanted to screw with people. It's like that last person who uploaded those flashes where it popped up porn and tried to force you to print it out. Now I gotta be wary of certain flashes that have names like those, which sucks.

Idiots who upload this kinda garbage frustrate me, and undermine those who actually try.

I just stopped the page from loading so the flash didn't have time to load. It's definitely not going to bother us anymore.

So as sad as it is to say the B/P system as of now is doing more harm to NG them good thanks to those users who care more about points then what comes onto NG itself.

why don't they just go back to the way it was years ago where it takes 15-20 seconds of watching the video for the 0-5 buttons to load? that way users have no choice but to watch it and make an informed decision. that seems like it would solve a lot of problems; that's probably a big reason why so many people just 5 shit so frequently. i always thought they made the system that way so spam votes couldn't happen, but now the buttons are accessible even without the video playing. when i first logged back in a couple months ago after 6 years of inactivity i thought that was kind've strange.

That's what I had to do too in order to vote. Took me a few times to get it in time, but I wanted to vote zero, (and hope others did as well) so others didn't get annoyed by it as I did.

Much appreciated, Spretznaz. :)

How did I not see this before? Anyways, this is awesome, many thanks to all.

In less-enjoyable news, this was deleted by Wade last week, only to be resubmitted.

I'm not too sure if Spot the Difference games are against the rules. I guess if it gives the impression that it was put together in under a few hours with next to no effort then it should be blammed but still not sure is it is technically against the rules.

So this game got Daily Third..... I'd email the production company and ask, but WTF, why bother? The company got it's game exposed, and I didn't recall any ads running, other than the page itself.
