The Link was helpful. I believe this is fine. The song seems to be free for use and the author has been credited in the description. We're more after big label songs being used not (with all respect to the musician) amateur musician's music being used.

Shame it's not from the NG audio portal though.

Feel free to step in other mods if you think I'm wrong.

It's a music video made of scenes taken from a television show or shows.

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2016-12-04 18:11:50 (edited 2016-12-04 18:12:56)


I have, but It does (almost) nothing. It's just some sort of "menu test".
A gray screen with music, a volume slider and a couple of buttons.
The volume slider works, the buttons do nothing when clicked. Pointless non-game.

Maybe it's why the creator called it a GUI test.Nothing but a main menu.And I thought I was harsh in blamming it when I only saw the title.(Good thing for school!)

Honestly, I flat zero most "tests" unless they're actually worth messing with. Ten minutes plus to load a menu that doesn't work? That's a waste of my time, so the creator should see that reflected in the votes he receives, imo.

Greetings, Austin.

Thank you for your interest and your enthusiasm - it's always good to see new faces trying to help out the cause here at the Barracks.

While you are always welcome to drop in and help report inappropriate, stolen or rule-breaking flashes, you will first need to beef up your account a bit before you can be considered for EGB membership. You need to be at rank "Private" (2,500 exp points) or higher, with a silver whistle and a decent posting / review history. Members of the Elite Guard all lead by example, not just by dealing with the crud that seeps into the portal, but also by helping others and maintaining a general sense of decorum and dignity (which we WILL bend quite a bit here, but in good humor). We are NOT a blam club; we believe in voting fairly and keeping things balanced here at Newgrounds.

Please feel free to read up on our history and manifesto:

The Barracks Manifesto
The Barracks FAQ

If you think you've got what it takes, then stick around and practice fair voting, helping others and reporting truly rule-braking flashes. Also, watch for rule-breaking reviews, and when you see a truly bad one, flag it - that's how you rank up your whistle. Be warned - improper review flagging can actually work against you, so when in doubt, don't .

I hope this helps clears things up a bit, and I hope you stick around and grow with us - and maybe in a few months, when you reach Private, have that silver whistle and a good set of posts and reviews, we will be able to add you to the official roster.

Until then, thank you for your support - and feel free to ask any questions or speak your mind about the EGB. We always welcome new members who are serious in supporting Newgrounds by keeping the portal clean and safe.

Regards,

EGSC byteslinger,
Recruitment Officer / Current Acting Commander

True but for the amount of time it stayed under judgement,it gave me the idea that there's the smallest chance that it might pass.

I've seen less than ten tests(so far) barely pass judgement.And for the amount of time it stayed under judgement,it gave me the idea that there's the smallest chance that it might pass.

P.S:I know I'm repeating myself but sheesh,wasn't there a delete button?

This might be an example.For me,there was only a blank screen and some words at the top left.

Thank you. It's been a long time since I read that. Over eight years now. Surprised it's all still up. And to our aspiring private, best of luck. I almost envy you. The smaller B/P badges were a ton of fun to run through.

Hey guys, so this game is pretty good, lots of fun but im a little concerned about the fact that the music in the game seems quite familiar and the creator didn't credit the creator of the music, i think its the music from shovel knight but im not sure... here's the link to the game

One of three things may happen:One,it gets blammed,two,it's removed by the moderators or its creator and three,there's that really tiny chance it passes judgement.

This is a video. It belongs on youtube.

Not only is this a screamer, but is contains malicious code that opens up your printer as well as other nasty things.

This has 1 static image that can move:

Not sure if NG considers stuff like this desirable, I'm generally fairly tolerant... but this? l decided to report. Because I don't want NG filled with super-early-to-maybe-be games, and it somehow got a better rating than other finished working games. (...and it makes me feel like I'm doing mum and dads job! >< )

Maybe there could be a section, or a classification like the ETMA ratings, specially for stuff like this, so those who don't want to see them don't.

Just vote 0 and move on. It'll get a low enough score to be blamed.
No call to remove it as it's not breaking any rules.

I see, NG definition of the word 'game' is very large! ;-)
... but I kinda agree, no need to penalize, discourage, the person - but a classification would be nice.

Well, not that large.

Tests are best put into the Dumping Grounds, and pointless demos can be removed as well. And that one was pretty pointless. :)

We appreciate the interest, Game-Jammer! However, you must have at least a silver whistle, be of private rank in terms of B/P status, and have a decent amount of reviews and posts to be able to request to join. You're a brand new user, I see, so you have some work to do! I hope this doesn't discourage you. Just work hard and someday you'll be able to request to join the EGB.
