I have no idea what this is about but it looks sketchy
It's either stolen material or the uploader is impersonating Paul ter Voorde.

Hey all! Doing my monthly, or, semi monthly kinda whenever I want check in. Life has been busy. Trying to catch up on work and looking at the schedule ahead makes me cringe. Nice to see we hit 2,000 pages of portal defending. I hope you all are well. I always mean to come in here and say hey, but then some work bullshit comes up.
I'll try and pop in to show face more often.
Yea, I farm Anal Penguins. Do something about it.

By my guess, its probably a combination of the game being extremely popular online and the Song ID system making players quite aware of NG.
It does mean we have to deal with a glut of GD gameplay footage, but that's a price I'd willingly pay to keep NG from falling into obscurity and to earn some easy whistle points.

I know the author has already withdrawn this due to dogpiling, but for next time: aren't the relevant movie guidelines around this basically all about the P-Bots? That is: they mentioning opting out of awards for secondary versions (such as a second language) to prevent winning more than one slot. It's well established that multiple versions (languages, censorship levels) of movies are okay, even Tom has mentioned this, so--again--I assume it's about slots and in this case an A version is ineligible for awards anyway? So no fuss no muss?
Anyone else want to weigh in and/or share a more informed gospel?

it's a duplicate upload/cut-down version of the second upload
there is no rule against doing this but the second item gets taken down as it is un-needed clutter in the portal
imagine if everyone did that
the original intention was to create an A-rated piece, so the artist should stay the course and create an A-rated piece, not try to create 2 different versions of the same animation, in the end, it is handled as general spam

Thanks. That's all I needed to know. ;) If Tom allows it, then it's ok.

Under the Movie Guidelines, this would be considered a variant. NSFW or not, the Guidelines says they should be opted out.
They are allowed on the Portal, but they shouldn't get in the way of brand new projects, as technically you're not adding that much new stuff into it (or in this case, you're taking something out).
It also did not say the original project needs to have won an award or be eligible for an award.
"If you are uploading something that could be considered a variant or re-upload of an existing project, please check the "Opt out of any awards" box at the bottom of your project details form. Variants include style variations of something you previously published, dubs in different languages or a re-upload of something you previously unpublished. If you are merely updating an existing entry, we ask that you update the existing file rather than create a new entry."
I also think the removal was done by a moderator, since I flagged it as a variant.
If the author removed it themselves, it will display this.

My point is why not consider the A the variant and the M the primary? The rules are very clearly about the "secondary" version and don't provide guidelines on making that determination. Tom and the editorial staff have let P-Bots stand of variants and have featured variants on the front page, so clearly there's ambiguity here.
I get it was taken down (I forgot about that trick to tell how, so thanks BTW) but given it could also have been considered misrated, that's why I'd love a weigh-in/clarification of the reason for when this comes up again. Here there was little difference between the two variants, but one could imagine a version of a longer cartoon which cuts a scene for example.

Because the A was uploaded first?
