Another game passed judgement here Stolen from here Games2win is the name of the proper author!. I just sent Wade Fulp a pm so hopefully he will sort, this mess out. If you remember Perry The Perv
Not his game! Sorry but this really pisses me off two games stolen from the same website Games2win

All is not lost yesterday Wade Fulp deleted a stolen submisson here Victory!.

Keep an eye on author unless there called Games2win stealing from that website. Sadly these passed judgement.

Honestly, not a good fucking idea. Save your cash, and invest it in a few months, you'll be able to buy 2 nice cars with money you actually have in four years if you save your salary and invest it wisely in the next few years. (Especially wait for housing to drop even further, buy a few houses and rent them out with intention to sell them once the market reasserts itself.)

I disagree. Not only should you save your money, you shouldn't buy a car just yet. Loans are near impossible to get anywhere unless you have immaculate credit scores and can show that you can pay a lot more than just the minimum every month. If you can do that, then go for it.

But investing in the market isn't a great right now either. Home prices are dropping everyday, making the payments on the money needed to buy a house wouldn't be worth paying. Renting is a good money maker, but if you don't have the space/home to do it, it's not worth it. And investing in stocks is obviously not smart; the market is incredibly unstable, with 300-500 point drops then raises every day, even when the house bubble was starting to pop. Tomorrow might see an increase in stocks, but it will still be a bad market.

So, if you can even get the loan, go for the car. If not, don't worry about it. Wait a month for the bailout plan to take hold, then try again for the loan. Otherwise, save your money, don't buy with credit cards, and hope for the best.

That's Why I said to save, wait, watch the market for a few months, it hasn't hit rock bottom yet, but it's going to in the next 3 quarters or so. THAT is the time to buy, into solid stocks (Banks in countries with good regulating laws in place-not american banks, companies that are selling and developing products that will still be in use for a long time as technology evolves) And by a house I didn't necessarily mean a detached home, any real estate will bounce back up again, but once again wait for the prices to go down much further, as they are bound to do.

Hey! I'm from VA too! LoL, but seriously, I know that need to just buy something, but you still have to remember insurance, maintenance, and taxes on it. Maintenance is especially key with a used car, so the best thing (and I know this is redundant by now) is to wait and save. Suck it up and ask for rides and pay for gas like you would if you had your own car. In the meantime do your research (used cars, prices, insurance, etc.) and when you have saved More than enough for all of it and done ALL the research, then buy the car. I'm the same way about cars, and i suggest check with family first for any used cars for sale, I mean at the least you will know enough to be sure that they can't rip you off. ummm... P.S. GAS PRICES!!!! Yea, thought I would add to the list of expenses before you go and buy a car.

Ha, looks like it doesn't matter. Perhaps enough people found it offensive enough to vote 0 on it because it never made it pass judgment. Not only was it races against one race, but it was racist against several. I'm sure that we could of blown our whistles on it for being hateful, but it really didn't matter in this case.

Some worse stuff has passed judgement that so racist Blockhead Hentai. Yes for so reason a few games have been stolen from that website ,no idea why. I have Pm Wade Fulp but I cant do anymore then that. The portal been getting crap spam, but not to much. Games2win is he the author? maybe he submitted, some stuff on here. I will take a look got a cold hope it goes away by my birthday. Also new mods well done Writerblock on his new modship http://writersblock.newgrounds.com/. Rucklo gone sad seemed ,like a good mod.

*****

If there are any errors in this list---if I listed you as AWOL but you responded to the rollcall, or if you've changed your mind about being able to be active in the Barracks, contact me as soon as possible.

This is not the last time that the roster will be adjusted to more accurately reflect activity levels. Whenever a roster update occurs, I may check people who I don't recall posting recently and see when their last post in the Barracks was. Anyone who hasn't posted in the Barracks for thirty days or more can be cut from the roster at my discretion. The roster must accurately reflect who is regularly working with the Barracks so we can know who can be called upon for duties, whether whistling stolen flash, helping out newbies, whatever. This will not be done as a punishment, but rather for our collective convenience.

In regards to AnalPenguinFarming's AWOL status and his officer position, I will give him an additional week---til October 9---before assigning the NGDD Liaison position to someone else. I have already received several applications for the position, so if you're interested in having it should APF not return by then, hit me up via PM.

In other news, yes, there seems to be a flood of recent stolen flash lately. While much of it is being flagged successfully, there are some sneaking through. I recommend sharing stolen links with people and organizations that are interested in helping out; however, make sure that you're the first one doing it before posting in the NGPD/NGDD/wherever, so we don't have the same link repeatedly copy/pasted in a thread.

I would also like to remind all members that there is no reason to neglect your whistle, especially in times such as this---enhancing your whistle to Bronze or Silver level can be done very quickly if you're using the abusive review thread in Wi/Ht?, and everyone should eventually be aiming for Deity. The stronger our whistles are, the more stolen flashes will fall before us.

Keep up the good work.

The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me. I mean, 90% of the time they are so blatantly stolen anyone with sense would spot them. Pity not enough people care, if the rest of NG were as vigilant as we are, I reckon it would be stamped out almost completely.

Also new mods well done Writerblock on his new modship http://writersblock.newgrounds.com/. Rucklo gone sad seemed ,like a good mod.

What's more, it seems that gumOnShoe has also resigned his modship, which is a pity as he was a great mod and a nice guy in the bargain. Oh well, que sera sera I suppose.

On another topic, I'm being bombarded with mid-term tests at the moment. They aren't hugely important, but each one is worth 5% of our grade for that module so they do add up. I don't mind them, but we've got a lot in a short space of time.

My Computing for Scientists exam went great, but I was disappointed that I only got 4.2 / 5, I know that's a great score but it was an easy exam (recreate a Word document lol) and I can't think of any major errors I could've made.

Then I got 80% in my General Chemistry exam, which I was happy with, but was a little annoyed that I fell into a trap with one of the questions, and that cost me 10%. Now I have a Science Maths exam tomorrow, which should be ok, just some basic calculus and functions.

Oh well, on the plus side, I got 100% on both my Biology lab reports so far, so I guess university is going pretty well right now.

With the lost of those two mods though we did receive another mod today. BR is now a review mod and he was someone that I thought would be modded a long time ago. He taught me everything that I know about the review system and I've helped about 20 or so people personally with understanding the review system so in the long run BR has actually helped a lot of people understand what's abusive and what's not abusive. I give him the credit for helping me get out of garbage because he taught me everything.

I needed an idea for a new blog and I think that this is what I'm going to use at the moment. I'm going to put all of my classes up and my current grades and update them time from time. That and I had another idea, but that would take longer to do so I'm going to wait for that.

37 Members will be detailed on the new-look EGB Roster, when I publish the details, hopefully this Saturday.

Updates will be on a monthly basis. If any user has an issue with that, they are politely reminded that I have 3 other monthly updates to do, so I will be directing time in equal measure to complete these tasks each month.

Monthly updates means it will also be easier to show who has improved and maintained their paces. Weekly can fluctuate a little too much for accuracy's sake. You want on the top gainers list, you've got to work hard for 4 weeks now!

That's cool, that's why we have nglog. It also means when updates do come i'm gonna be sayin "jeeze where has the time gone... I need to study" LoL. What other updates do you do? are they for EGB? is the NGDD one of them? I can't remember. well I'm gonna go and catch up on some calculus
and physics hw.

So I have 'lernt' how to add two numbers together in Visual Basic because it's really hard to do. Haha, that was just a mock exercise though so probably some more challenging things later on in that lesson.

Anyway, on a more Newgrounds related note, I thought the update with the flash portal was pretty nice, I updated all my flash yesterday out of bordom. Well, I could have gotten on with putting together the flash I'm suppost to be making but I keep putting it off, no motivation.

Here's my post for a while, till I am awake enough to post again.

Hrm. That sounds okay. It seems like kind of a long time between updates, but the 51+ list will tide me over between barracks updates.
I know for me at least, the barracks had became a bit of a b/p club. I really only tended to post here when the update came out, and I only talked about b/p related stuff. I've been trying to participate more in discussion since things were re-orginized. Having a b/p update monthly will help me to continue that trend, I think.

Having seen some of the 'abuse' that was going on with whining about when updates were taking place, I thought I'd draw my line in the sand early on.

What other updates do you do? are they for EGB? is the NGDD one of them? I can't remember. well I'm gonna go and catch up on some calculus and physics hw.

Look at my sig - I run the top Blammers, Saviours and Review Responses lists.

As Slash had mentioned earlier the NGPD would indeed appreciate any help in spotting abusive or stolen submissions because a lot of our members are entering with garbage whistles nowadays, even those honorably discharged. Feel free to post links (with original of course) on our thread. Thanks!

BTW I'm glad to see the roster update was a success.

Yeah, I actually thought he would get this a long time ago. If I'm not wrong he taught you a lot of stuff about abusive reviews too didn't he? It was nice to get a PM from him today. He told me that I actually taught him quite a bit about the review system that he didn't know, but it all goes back to him teaching me in the first place.

Yeah, I understand about having to do so many other lists too. I don't think I would have the patience or time to keep up one list like this and update it so I completely understand. Once a month will also keep this place from being a B/P list. This will get us back on track.

Man, so many didn't reply, and it looks like many more than I would've expected, resigned...

I really don't like seeing it, but I won't argue with it, though I do hope most of them make a return here very soon.

No worries man, I understand that you have other lists to do as well. Hopefully as Metal-Therapy said this will also buck the trend of the weekly post count +1 fest that the roster was starting to become.

I for one promise to do just that Tails, assuming of course a fellow EGB member hasn't beaten me to the punch. Hopefully it'll help a few of the guys buried deep in the hole (I won't name names, but one in particular stands out, great user but stuck with Garbage for as long as I can remember).

If you feel like it's the right thing to do, then it's the right thing to do.

Personally, I've decided to give the old girl another chance, because I know that there are members of this group out there that are hopefully the majority of the members, preferably all, that pride the correct voting of what a flash deserves over the stats themselves.

We've got to remember and keep as our mantra that the stats are a nice side effect. We are here to judge what a flash deserves to receive as a score and to vote it through judgement fairly. Simple.

Sir thanks for the list Im very glad Im on it. Got a stolen flash to report which passed judgement Resubmitted Same game which is under admin review. See stolen from here Orginal
Now the only thing he changed was the title. Now is he the author I noticed he got the same name, as the person who made the game. However he could have done that to fool people into thinking he is the real author, what do you think should i pm Wade Fulp.

Hey guys, can this be flagged as unsuitable/hateful? I reckon so, as it contains pictures (albeit hard to see) of what seems to be a decapitation.

In my view it's flagable, but is it prominent enough to be flagged in your opinion?

I thought about flagging it, but I decided to leave it alone because the pictures are hard to see (ok, not so hard).

Anyway I think it will get blammed so we shouldn't worry about it... I hope.

The funny thing is that when I read your post I thought I was in Rage's thread (which was opened in other tab).

Sorry anyway :/

I start to lose a bit more faith in the Newgrounds masses when pictures of a guy getting his head chopped off with the words "Suck my fucking cock" flashing in front of it passes judgement with a 1.81. I gave it the vote it deserved (1 guess as to what that was), but looks like there were enough protection-whores about to, once again, allow spam through the portal.

*sigh* No use bitching about it I suppose.

While not technically against the rules listed on the upload page, I know for a fact that Wade has personally deleted decapitation videos before.

Notify him and see what happens.

That's very true, as well as the other things you said, I will continue to stay here, not only for the stats, or the members that make it worthwhile, but for the site as well..

Sure, we don't have all the top contributors that help protect the portal, but we have our fair share, and our stats go to prove that. :D

And with the submission that's in discussion, I would say it's not necessarily unsuitable, but if Wade found out, I'm sure he would take it down.

The portal never ceases to surprise me. The crap that has been getting passed lately is unacceptable. Our only hope is the EGB and NGPD. I hope that our combined power can start swinging the portal in a new direction. We need to let the spammers know that there crap is no longer welcome in our portal. I would like to see a flash created to promote fair voting. I am going to talk to a few flash artists and see if they would be willing to help.

I'll be down to help with making something like that, you looking for collab work, a simple flash, or just something original, such as the things when used to see when we got in the final vote, before the redesign of course.

Let me know, and I could also see about a game as well, something simple, or at least something like the old portal banner, remember, the one where we could 'destroy' flashes?

I miss the old times now. :(

I was thinking something simple. I do not have a lot of experience with animation myself, that's why I need help. I was thinking something like showing a guy who is voting 5 on everything, and then the EGB or some character jumps out of his computer screen and kills / attacks him. Then a sign comes up saying Vote fair or die! A kind of parody of P Diddy's vote or die campaign a few years ago in the USA, during the 2ed bush election.

I miss the old times now. :(

Aw reminiscing. Sadly I was not very active back then. I came to newgrounds alot but I only ever played game's. It was not until less then a year ago that I became active in the community.
