The reason that people refer our king as 'knugen' is because he is dyslectic and once when he was asked to write an essay about his work an spelled the swedish word for king (kungen): 'knugen'

It entirely depends on your ecpm which can change with many different factors.

I love the game though, especially the music. Did you draw out the levels on the stage or use a tile engine?

Not really, the eCPM is calculated based on how much you've earned and the number of views. It doesn't decide how much you earn, it's merely a way of seeing how well your ads are doing.

Also, spamburger:
$16 on that many views is not good, but neither do I think it's bad either. If you make a good game that spreads all over you'll have many thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands, views each day and then it should pay off good.

BoMToons advertised a list of game sites to which you can upload your games, I suggest that you PM him and ask for it if you haven't already :)

Hate to be a jerk, Artist Formerly Known As DreamworX, but the main conversation about your name change seemed to be going down in here. Not sure if t'was your intention, but there wasn't much need for another topic altogether.

In other identity news, I've reinstated my classic sig for brief kicks.

Yes, many already knew about it before I made the thread, and yes I've also made a news post about it and I have it in my sig. Not everybody keeps up to date with the reg lounge though, and everybody sure don't read my news posts. I've made almost 3,000 posts, most of which were made to help out people here in the Flash forum, excuse me for believing that I deserve some recognition by them who I continuously help and who doesn't go to the reg lounge.

I do think that I have a pretty clear idea of what lies behind this though (please correct me if I'm wrong):
You consider me to be an egocentric jerk for trying to get the word around that I have changed my username, and therefore you get a kick out of deleting my thread.

I would definitely have accepted a lock, no problems, the practical difference between locking and deleting a thread may not be very big, but the symbolic is however so much bigger. Considering the amount of utterly bad threads that is created in here daily I am very surprised that my thread is one of the very few that gets deleted completely. You say you hate being a jerk, my guess is that it's the exact opposite.

Now, I'm very aware that this might make me sound even more egocentric, ranting because of a deleted thread, but I don't care about the thread per se.. What I'm trying to say is rather: I had higher thoughts of the mods, at least in the Flash forum.

I've never been banned from the forums, if you want the honor of giving me my first then go ahead. Just be coherent.

Haha, wow. I genuinely was apologetic before, but that was the most demeaning and condescending response I could have possibly expected. I'm not gonna ban you, but I no longer feel particularly sorry for deleting your third or forth venue of this news. This a couple more places than Synj, for example, felt the need to.

well wtf.. how did this get billions of posts?

Sure, wave it off like it's nothing. It shines straight through though (as much as it can through text), and I don't think I'm the only one who sees that.

Yeah I know I might be exaggerating a bit. I'm probably a bit extra grumpy because I really should have been in bed several hours ago, but I still hold on to what I said.

I would be a bit surprised if anyone else considered this quite the Rosa Parks moment you seem to. You opened up a thread in a forum for Flash discussion about changing your name, after having made a userpage post, sig notification, and lounge post. I felt it was a bit much when a parallel discussion was going on in the lounge, so I deleted it, and was nice enough to note that it was me, additionally offering my reason for it. Can't really see myself being the bad guy here, considering I got no "kicks" from it as you suggested. Whatevs.

WAIT! HOLD EVERYTHING!!!!!!

KUNGEN IS DREAMWORX AND DREAMWORX IS KUNGEN?! I gotta go lie down.

Stop the jibberjabber people =D ....... jibber jabber... never used that before...

How are everyone summer flash projects going / summer vacations being planned out?

I don't see why the thread needed to be deleted but I agree that we're now making too much of a big deal out of it. People who will benefit from knowing that you used to be dreamworx will know it from your sig anyway. But I have to agree with BoMToons, you probably don't know neg very well

at least you didn't get a 3 months ban *cough cough* :P he he

Very slowly, but it'll pick up plenty of speed in the summer months.

mmmm, decisions, that's sexy.

itch.com

I've recently got a bid from itch.com on a new game of mine for $400, allowed to keep in game ads, and I can sell non exclusive copies of the game after 30 days to other sites. Anyone ever heard of them or dealt with them? I'm aware they are new so it's not probable, but I thought I would ask anyway.

Nah, I'm from Sweden too and he's like Sweden's George W Bush. Although not as famous around the world but still pretty stupid.

I've got loads of fun facts about our king, not only dyslectic-related.

Oh. DreamworX changed his name. Ho hum. Conversation ends here.

Neg, I approve of the reintroduction of your old signature.

In even more bizarre news today, there's an article in Metro (the slightly conservative, very complainative free tabloid newspaper in the UK) about furries. With a complete sidebox dedicated to informing the general public of the UK of thier glossary. Now every reader in the UK can now safely know what 'yiff' is...

Other rants from me today...

- Hammerhead, the newish Offspring single, has been released for Rock Band, with an announcement that six other songs they've done will be up soon (which sounds like Offspring 01). This, combined with the release of Avenged Sevenfold's Critical Acclaim and Afterlife, marks one of the days I regret only having a 20GB hard drive on my XBox...

- Despite a few dozen people informing me about it, Bloodstock remained a blocked out thought until dELta told me that it would feature pirate metal this year. Then the whole thing of it being only half an hour south of my flat clicked, and so did Nightwish headlining again this year. Anyone else planning going to this, or is everyone saving thier money for the NG UK meet two weeks later?

I didn't get banned, I just took a break from newgrounds. I've been stalking the forum a bit, but i do plan to re-reg. It's cool to see there's so many people I know who still post here.

Really cool! And apparently he's born in Sweden so that makes him even cooler.

The voiceover kind of ruined it for me :( All that annoying 'right side of the law' stuff goes against my British cynicism. It's still pretty impressive though.

Who are you? Arent you that annoying kid who...

Anybody seen this trailer yet? The art direction in that movie, from what I can tell so far, is brilliant. I like the idea behind the movie, it's kind of surreal, almost like some sort of dark fairy-tale. It's my most anticipated film of 08.

Oh i just got back a couple of days ago two amazing how we g and comeback together. thought you t banned because you said that atleast he didn't get banned for 3 months and you wrote that you used to get banned a lot i myself only got banned twice
how many times have you been banned and why ?
I got banned twice for 24, hours the first one was because i told some noob that violated the rules something about him about getting ban with a ban stick lol, and some mod thought i told him that i am going to ban him so he wrote in reason of banning "don't underestimate the power of the ban stick" or something like that lol. The other time i got banned for e yelling at vengeance that ban i actually deserved...

Never, and so long as I have this yellow aura, forever never. It freaked all the other mods out that I had a perfect record and nearly 4000 posts...
