No problem, hope it was a good one. However, I don't think it was locked, I checked it just now and it is still open, unless I am gravely mistaken. I suppose it just dropped off of the front page as opposed to actually being locked.

Nice work there.

Anyhow, I'm back from my little holiday, evil as ever, but a bit behind I suppose on EGB events. I noticed all the changes like the forum way to link to flash submissions and a new formats of authors and stuff in submissions; which is all very nice but I'm still waiting for that "account type thingy" to be something useful.

No she was talking about the birthday topic that I created her. I didn't know there was already one made earlier in the day so I created one for her without searching for it, which was my mistake. So it doesn't bother me that it was locked up though. I posted in the original thread also.

Hello, do you mind if I shadow you guys? I'm not asking to join, as I don't have the rank of "Private", but I wanted to see what it would be like and what I need to do to become a formidable b/per. I was also wondering if someone can judge my b/ps, reviews, and posts.

Alright, your stats aren't bad for your year, but those b/p stats can be easily obtained through being around on the major days, ie. Pico Day, Madness Day, and most of all, Clock Day.

To become a better b/per, you'll need to watch the portal constantly, and I highly suggest downloading Casualty's Portal Guard, which will allow you to keep track of UJ flashes in the Portal.

Along with that program, come around during the early morning hours when the European users mainly submit, as well as the afternoon/night hours, which are the times when most other users post their flashes.

Now, I know you personally, so I know you have practice, as well as school, and I'm not going to tell you to sacrifice those things to become a higher level, but to become better, you will have to sacrifice some things, including but not limited to, sleep, time that could be spent doing other things, and a bit of your social life.

Now, I still work, and hang out with friends regularly, but I still have a decent level, am in the top 500, and have no intentions to stop b/ping at all.

I wish you the best buddy, and remember to post those pics!

Should you have bothered to read the first post, or this website's FAQ section, you would know that the qualifying means to join this club, are primarily Blam/Protection points, as well as general behavior, but without B/P points, we cannot accept you. Please read the Newgrounds FAQ, listed at the top of every Newgrounds page, and gain the requested stats.

In short, to become an Elite Guard, get to the portal, and work.

Good to see things running smoothly around here.

I had a job interview thingy today (at the renowned dining institution known as Blimpie, lol), but I doubt I'll get it. My whole citizenship thingy, which left me unable to work (but able to vote, for some reason) until the age of 22, isn't easily explained on a job application, and I come out looking kinda lazy, lol.

If I DO get the job, I'll have less time for Newgrounds, but not horribly less.

Ah, well, we'll see. Keep up the good work, everyone, and make sure any stolen shit gets taken care of. I'm available over PM if anyone needs anything.

*salute*

I can't believe that you guys can find the time to get 800 B/P a week !!!
I mean... in 6 weeks you can get the amount of B/Ps I made in 4 years...

anyway, congrates Corky, and thanks for the rosters.
And also, since when have we been able to post links to flash movies on the bbs?

You would have loved the 05'-06' where we EGB monsters and a few others battled day in, day out for the star pace, which is obviously, having 1,000 points in one week's time. Not an easy task and one that was listed if someone did get it. Slash and I are just a few of the many who got it in the time, I only had such boredom for one week of my life, but Slash had more.

Of course, as any Newgrounds user will tell you, things change and whether a passion to B/P fades, or time dissipates, it's hard to really keep up for long. That's why I think it's best to stick to the 500-600 a week threshold, or you'll burn out too fast.

Well when I'm at the computer studying most of the day and doing homework taking a 5 minute break to B/P every now and then doesn't take much effort or time.

I mean... in 6 weeks you can get the amount of B/Ps I made in 4 years...

Just imagine if I started B/Ping before November 7th 2007. :D I only had reviews and 1 post, but nothing else until that date.


anyway, congrates Corky, and thanks for the rosters.

Congrats on what? >.< It wasn't my birthday. ;) It was phantomlassuk's birthday.

Corky52 sorry Im late posting this but i think that the games are his this website http://www.kongregate.com/games/Flasher7 /save-poor-guys shows the games made by him
Flasher7
As you can see it looks like the games are his the only under admin http://www.allgamesallfree.com/games2511 -save-poor-guys.html here also

http://flasher7.newgrounds.com/

This does not mean he is the author he could have copied the name, but i think the games are his.

Yes SlashFirestorm my birthday was on the 8th my b/p this week around 15 b/p 89 to go, i could not get that amount of points. Yes i hope the stolen flashes get sorted many still around which are annoying ,will pm Wade Fulp with the one.

I'm not entirely sure, but the author's sign-up is today, the game is rather good, and it mentions a "craziness.com" that isn't either the author's site or the source of his e-mail. So, is this stolen? I think it is, but I didn't flag it without definitive proof.

That happens to be all the time. Granted, I don't stay at the 500-600 that you said, but at times I just don't feel like coming on here and B/Ping and/or posting. I end up going to other sites, or playing video games.

Has anyone played the Mastermind game? It's a bit confusing to first jump in, but after a while, it get to be more fun. Until you get to the point where you have a massive cash flow, and you can buy anything you want. But the end is fucking hilarious.

You're not the only one who needs to come on the BBS more, lol, I really should use the BBS more too boost my post count. I mean to express my opion! Though not posting means I avoid posting in topics that get deleted. I also need to review more, but gosh I'm so lazy to do stuff, haha.

I'm also getting songs I hate stuck in my head recently.

Yeah you need to review more, every time I update the Top 100 Audio Reviewers, I see that you lose reviews and ranks. Re-join the RRC! Also, I have to post more on here. Though, the two lists I have to update, the RRC and the Highschool take me a lot of time.

That's frequent problem. It happens often for me. Actually, shitty songs are always catchy and they stuck in people brain ... sadly.

I don't want to rejoin the RRC, it's too much effort lol, I know that if I rejoin I will be trying hard to maintain a 100% compleation record which I might not be able to do after a while. I hate people deleting their audio and flash so I lose reviews, I might rejoin at some point but if I do I'll have to total up my own score which I'm too lazy to do.

Yeah it would be nice if you did rejoin again. I'm still at 100%, but just like how you missed one I might eventually do it to. I hope it doesn't ever happen, but if it does then it does. I still want to see if I can stay 100% for as long as possible.

I absolutely hate it when people delete their movies. I doubt some of the stuff there is stolen and then removed so I'm sure it's mainly because people are removing there work, which makes me mad because I always seem to lose 2 audio reviews every other week and 1 flash review every other week.

Speaking of the RRC.. I have a few more to write. >.<

Response to The Elite Guard Barracks 2008-10-11 12:34:18


You could review all my work, I have no intention of ever deleting anything, haha. I can't bring myself to review much stuff, I did a little when I left the RRC but then fell into not doing much, especilly audio. I also like to get responces, but eh.

Yeah, I'm still pretty much still burnt out from reviewing, myself. I was thinking about re-joining the RRC, but I'm just not there yet. ;p If/when I do, I've decided that I'm not going try to maintain 100%. NEEDING to get every review done to keep a perfect record was really what made me get tired of reviewing. If I was just able to let a few slide when I was tired of writing and/or had other things to do, I think I would have enjoyed it for much longer. From what I can tell, that's probably why Shadow quit, too. You two were great members there, it'd be great if all three of us re-joined at some point. ;)

Lots of talk of reviewing... that is one thing I find very hard to motivate myself to do on here. That is mainly because of the standards I set when I review, making each one a long process, but I'd like to think each one is worth the effort. It takes a submission that has something special about it to make me review now. There was a time I ran a reviewing competition within the Barracks- if you hunt through the forums the thread is still there. Any keen reviewers who wish to resurrect it are welcome to, I don't have the time anymore.

My girlfriend is back up in the frozen north known as Scotland, so once again I'm free to B/P a little more. I'm still job hunting though, so that may not last long!

I know exactly how you feel. I rarely review anymore, unless I see something that leaves enough of an impression on me to write one. In the last month or so I've changed my methods about and I've found a system of reviewing that I like, but as with you it carries the downside of being time-consuming, and I'm a bit lazy ;P

Good luck with the job hunt, I know several guys who are finding it tough at the moment, especially in the current economic climate. Hopefully you won't have too much trouble though.

I know i was the same with Review Request Club in the end it was about getitng 100% ,rather then being fun it got to be a bit of a chore as you may know from my posts. Alas i sort of miss it i have written some brillaint reviews, my lack of effort now has slipped badly. Not written a review since 7th September a long time for me i have never gone that long ,without doing one. My brain needs to be doing it again not pushing myself like before but trying to do some good ones ,maybe not all the list. Anyway keeping track of stolen stuff is hard with so much getting through.
