He's still a mod for the time being, but it would appear that he's left Newgrounds. It sucks because he was a great mod and a really nice and helpful guy, but I think he was just too concerned about the amount of time he's been spending here of late.

I hope he comes back. Very few users were as knowledgeable and helpful as him. :-(

Anyway, on happier news, it's the end of the month! It's time for the February State of the Portal project!

Any EGB'er can participate. This is just a prototype run, so the exact procedure hasn't been set yet. What should be included for sure is your general view of February's portal activity---fast, slow, spammier than usual, etc---and areas to watch out for. For example, if any new rulebreakers or particularly nasty spammers have shown up, bring it up. This project can be just as much about consolidating intel as dicking around.

I also included a couple of my favorite flashes from February, and next time I'll add some more new audio.

Take a look, post anything you want---don't be shy about it!

Besides, I will pester the crap out of y'all if I don't get some input, lol.

*salute*

Also, this is just what I needed to give me a pick-me-up. :-D

It had been quite a while...

Thanks for the tip Sir-Nuts. And i used that tip to watch Metal Gear Awesome this morning. And is it hilarious after i saw it the first time i watched it like 2 more times because it was so funny.

Well i just added my two cents, I hope it was helpful somewhat, tho I am still trying to figure out how to use the entire EGB site :P

Yeah, I love getting that. Too bad it's not accompanied by the old Flash, though.

I also added to the EGB post for the February SotP.

Stolen flash alert!

Happy Pill - Stolen

Happy Pill - Original

Flag it, quick!

Sorry for the double-post, but the same user stole another flash!

Warthog Launch - Stolen

Warthog Launch - Original

Flag it again! I've already reported both of them in the abusive stuff thread.

I've seen a couple of you guys saying "Whistled and to top it off I 0'd it". And when you flag something it says "You should still vote on this, based on it's quality. And if it turns out it's appropiate for the site, your vote will be counted."
Keep that in mind guys rather than just zeroing it.

Is this one ok he said. One submissson flagged but says he got premisson to post thishttp://www.newgrounds.com/portal/vie w/427770 here the orginal http://www.hurtwood.demon.co.uk/Fun/copt er.swf so is this stolen

It's been flagged for adminastrive reveiw so we'll have to see. If they don't have a username that suggests they the person who made game on the website then flag 'em.

If know a flash that contains nude scene
Waterlollies. by Sidorio
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/40 6813

but... you can only watch it if you made a 'right click' on the flash & click on "play" (I'm not sure if it's 'play'... because I see that word in Spanish "Reproducir", so I don't know about the English version)
& it just last for a moment... maybe less than a second... is a naked guy showing his... damn... it wasn't funny at all

but this Flash passes so much time ago
so... what I should do about it?...

(btw... you can include to the broken Rules that the Author copy the name & icon of a good Flash Series to get a high score)

That's the EGB, but that doesn't tell me anything about the rest of NG... =P

Cause i dont know what it is but my computer wont let me install it. So i have to go about getting my b/p points the old fashioned way.

Maybe I can help you if you provide some details?

And also congrats and salute to NEVR for reaching the Major rank!

Alrighty then. Well i tried to install it the other day and it got about 50 or so percent done and then it said it had a corrupted file in the download.

Well, if it's known to be stolen, then way let it pass? Not enough people might flag it, and give it 2 or higher.

Plus, some one will tell Wade or Tom about it, and take it off anyway.

You can't be absolutely, 100% any Flash is stolen unless the submitter actually comments "I stole this Flash." If it somehow turns out that the actual creator submitted it,and everyone votes on the quality of the submission regardless of whether they think the Flash is stolen or not, then if it is found to not be stolen it will have the rating it would have had before people thought it was stolen. I also believe that if you flag a submission and it gets blammed, then you get the Blam point anyway.

Also, anyone who hasn't submitted their character form yet has about 3 hours and 30 minutes to do so. The form is on the page before this one.

Also, I posted in the whole State of the Portal thing. =)

True, but being 99% sure is good enough for me. And sometimes, I do give it a 2 or whatever it deserves, because I'm 50% or less sure that it's stolen.

I just want to make sure that you got mine. You didn't respond to my PM, and my computer is acting a little funny with sending and receiving stuff, so I just want to make sure that it sent.

Guys, we have a stolen submission!
Stolen: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/42 7834
Original: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/19 369
A friend told me on AIM, and he is taking it to Rage's... So get it before they do!

By the way, Wade just got back his whistle tools last night, courtesy of Ross... So now you'll get whistle points much faster from flagged movies! Still, as always I recommend checking Rage's at least once every day if you're looking to polish the whistle.

Sorry to double post, but... This one just smells like a password phishing scheme!

Tells you to input your username and password. Malicious, anyone?

Yeah, obvious scam. The guy doesn't even have a separate textbox for the username and password, it just says 'put a few spaces between your username and password'. Idiot.

Hopefully soon. I have all of the character models done, so it is just a matter of staying on task while developing it. Write now I'm writing the script. So far it is 4 pages long with the dialogue at around 9pt font. It is kind of an experiment with the style of the Flash, but I'm trying to make the story killer.

To answer your original question more in-depth, it could be out anywhere from one day to a month depending on how long it takes to actually animate it.

*Salutes*

Sorry for the double post, but you can now view your character models for the upcoming EGB Flash on the Elite Guard Barracks forums. It is in the Barracks Business board.

Goodnight, my fellow Barracks members!
