hehe, I said aye and I'm not even Canadian, what's that all aboot?

Aye is Irish silly.

Eh is Canadian. Get your facts straight eh>

I thought Irish would be more of an oi, not like a british Euro Trip oi, but a close. Perhaps I just type my aye, oy oi, eh noises weird, I'll stick with that one.

Overall, I like it. One thing, I'd add a footer... Just to sort of "complete" the layout. It looks half-loaded without one, if you get what I'm saying. Other than that, me likes :D

People who use mochiads have like eCPMs of about $0.45-0.75. What gives? >:(

My guess is that, while AdventureQuest-ads sure are better suited for Flash games than "Write your name in glitter"-ads, the NG ad system needs more advertisers. I don't think I've ever seen anything else than AQ in their ads, and I think that most people knows what that is by now.

So, they simply don't click the ads.

Makes sense to me, something to note when I look for ads, and something for the NG staff to note as well.

Isn't the ng ad system set up through cpmstar? I'm not sure how it works but it seems like the ads that are shown is up to cpmstar, not newgrounds.

Perhaps, someone should do something about it though..

What could we possiblt do?

Yeah the ads are through CPMStar, NG just has a special deal with them.

By someone I do in particular mean admins of NG or cpmstar, and they can do very much.

I actually bet money on Holland/Netherlands... Russians appear to continue being my enemy despite the newfound peace I reported a couple of posts earlier.

I too did bet on them, as the winners of it all, but since that odds was so high I only bet a few dollars and I don't really care about the loss of those money (I do care a bit more about the money that I could've won, but meh :P )

How do you know this? or...how do you figure it out I mean.

Write an email or a PM to Tom about the low payback on CPM ads and see what he says. Maybe you can encourage him to tell CPM star to raise the rates so that everyone doesn't switch over to mochi.

Basically, you just use getTimer and then a for loop.

Those particular numbers thoguh are from this thread.

Hmm.. Don't you know Tom pretty well, I guess it's much easier to get a reply if you do? ;)

Well 3-1 to Russia and it easily could have been 6-1...

Cool, some of that is very interesting, and I feel like it will make my stuff less susceptible to laggg.

All bases belongs to the US?

Oh gawd, is this intentional?

I just saw this in the All your base r belong 2 us collection. It almost looks like all bases belongs to USA and not 'us'. Weird, huh? Or is it Tom Fulp's evil doing?

Well done. I was supporting Holland though so a bit of a shame they are out. I have only watched one or two matches the whole tournament though. Wish Engl-er-land were in. Oh well.

Well done :)

I'm tired of people talking about nationalities/football, surely there is another topic.

Ya, football's had enough time in the spotlight.

So...anyone else here like soccer?
