K a while ago we were talking about how Rick Rolls are old (and then I got banned that same day for having a rick roll in my sig).

Today I was watching the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and this happened

The meme was old a while ago, why keep kicking the dead horse?

TV chumps don't meme until it's a sure thing, so they end up way behind the curve. I can't believe how goddamn late in the game Family Guy's peanut butter jelly reference came. Hacks.

Truthfully, I did get a laugh out of seeing Rick Roll on TV, but still. Old memes are old

Yeah, I saw that today too. I suppose they just couldn't resist.

Turns out I was thinking of dobio o.O
Anyway!
What do you think was the best game for the last 10 years?

Forget Halo, forget CoD4, I say spyro 3. That was the last good one, and now they've alll gone crappy with all the "You must save the world from darkness!" bullshit.

Did anyone watch fallout 3 spot on E3?
It looked great but they totally ignored multiplayer.. After saying 'no multiplayer' they said "who needs multiplayer when you have about 100 hours of single player gameplay" o.O!

I always use one another as a break from one another.. its quite nice to have both.

Attack of the killer plug

So yeah, go and up-vote my game.

See I listen to the Daily Show at work in another window. And yeah, the meme's pretty old- but that's the gag. It was taking the piss out of the media outcry against Iran's apparent mastery of tools ten year old Americans use to make lolcats. Everyone on the net has been rickrolled before - consequently, there's a good chance everyone watching the Daily Show would get the joke.

Since it's not an old enough fad for everyone to have forgotton about it (the joke would have bombed utterly if John Oliver had tried AYB), or too niche to have limited appeal (such as by, say, turning the entire thing into a ZP! style reel of Windows Movie Maker bitmaps...), the joke works. And it's a good punchline for it.

OOT was released in 1998 I believe, so that's just on the border, and I go with that.

That was awesome. For once I gave a BBSer a 5 they deserved 100%. This is possibly the best RPG i've played in Flash for many reasons!

The story was awesome - especially the twist at the end and the reality thing! I loved how it all fitted together - and the little references here and there :)

The engine was solid and convincing. The controls felt natural and it was the perfect level of difficulty for a flash RPG. I also loved the humour.

EVERYTHING OWNED!

Congatulations!

Exalted. Or Munchkin, maybe Zombies!!!
... oh you mean computer games...

Tie between Sid Meier's Pirates! (2004), Startopia (2001) and Portal

I never actually liked OOT, or Twilight Princess. My favourite Zelda's of all time were WW, MM and Link to the past.

I'm really umpopular video-game wise because I though Twilight sucked.

I never really got into LTTP or MM. I mean, I got quite far in MM, but the fact that I hadn't bothered with many bonus missions and stuff meant it was almost impossible to continue, so I gave up. Wind Waker was good. But it did kind of replicate OOT. I did like TP, but again I found it was more of a replica of OOT, the bosses were pretty similar and stuff like that.

Holy crap.

Anybody remember me?

Vaguely, I'm not good with names though, so you must be pretty famous.

I don't remember you at all. Though 2005 was my NG gap year. I just stopped going on NG for a year, a looking at your sign up date, perhaps that is the reason.

Actually I posted on these forums mostly in '06, methinks. And yeah I actually just had a gap year myself I guess. Stopped flash and newgrounds and lost contact with all my ng friends. I recently got an iMac and Flash CS3 though, so, looking to maybe pick up my old hobby. Eh, whatever, I'll post again later.

I wasn't really bothered with the forums till the end of '06. But it is always good to get another reg back here. There are so many spammers and trolls it drives me insane...

I take breaks from NG too, but never a year. Usually it'll be about 6 months maybe longer, and then I come back for a while, then leave again. My longest terms always are during the summer. Then when school starts I sort of fade off.

But I've had a huge submission gap and that needs to be fixed.

My last solo submission was really early 2007, so I need to fix my gap too :P

I also do that...it gets boring without all the old regs like sonx and shirtutle those two made the lounge a lot more intresting..

ani money i remember you =] vagly...

Old stuff for me. But yeah, everyone should take the time to look it over. Its pretty informative.

RE: Break Time

I've started to take a break from animating and the artsy side of the site in favor of being more behind the scenes guy... i think i enjoy it more anyway. Animation is too solitary and depressing, i like knowing what other people are up to and like seeing newgrounds as this living organism or something... this whole sketchbook tour shit is great this year, im tempted to almost not even do anything myself. Just be like the middle man that throws together this monster of creativity and sets it free to maul shit.

I'm going to try and pile more games with people ive never worked with before.. i keep telling myself that and i just need to find the time to invest in that venture... maybe im overly optimistic from tom's latest post but its like exciting times.

Ok time to go home. Smell ya later bitches.

wow a non spam post by me. i should be modded.
