I did check and mine wasn't the only one. Honestly, at the time I wrote that, I was sorta pissed. I work full time and almost got fired from my job because of coming in late a couple times trying to finish this thing. Then I finish it with 30 minutes to spare and see the rest of the entries knowing I wouldn't even get past the open round. And then I thought you gave everyone's submission a shout out EXCEPT mine so I thought you like had some vendetta against me and I had to check. I only wanted to make sure mine wasn't the only one so I stopped at the first one I noticed that didn't also recieve some acknowledgement and it was this submission: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/639801
I don't know if you showcased that one yet or if there are others, but thats the one I noticed.
Anyway thanks for the frontpage dude I really appreciate it. This whole thing had me reconsidering my career choices lol.
Side note: you did not mention all Nata entries
An important mission ! For nata2014open
I need to not work full time at my other job I hate it~~

I've been amazed lately over what makes the news, some dude finds his dog after a tornado, whoopdee fucking do. Wouldn't surprise me if this did, especially if Tom wrote a heartfelt reply back to the victim's families.
I guess I could see that happening. I just feel like there's a way to satisfy all parties involved and we should discuss it more rather than outright banning something. Something like front-paging a tribute or something (Not a shitty, cookie-cutter, slideshow one either). You can still let that user submit the sandy hook game just don't promote it. Maybe that's not the best idea either but that's why we should talk about this and come up with a general consensus. Something that will be acceptable from all parties.

Tom and Wade have stated the reason several times, yet the retards in this forum completely ignore it (good points are always ignored in threads here).
So I tell you what. Tom can put it back up, and get his name, the Newgrounds name, and people who post content to the site get dragged through the shit by the media firestorm over it (which is exactly what would happen, especially if Fox news got ahold of it) . Then when the last advertiser pulls their ads from the site, it'll be up to you idiots who are raging over it to keep the site going with your money. See how long you can afford it.
It's already up to the "idiots" raging over this to keep this site afloat with the rest of the competition out there. Maybe instead of latching onto a simple solution such as censorship, we can put our heads together and come up with something else. It should be something that won't compromise the "everything by everyone" model this site was built on while still maintaining a positive image. I mentioned in a previous post hosting some sort of charity on this site that calls on its users to either contribute money or art/animation. Maybe there's other ideas that would be even better but just stopping at censoring the content is a lazy solution. It might be more difficult to think up something but it will also be more rewarding.

While not mentioned by name, the actions of the Newgrounds community has gotten positive press.
"Sirtom93, an active user on the Newgrounds BBS posted a thread on Newgrounds, on March 17, 2009,[41] describing how he would burn down his school with gasoline and was caught and arrested after Administrators and users collected his personal information and forwarded it to the local police. The newspaper in Sirtom's area did not mention Newgrounds by name"
If you want positive press, I would propose an idea to organize some sort of charity event for users to take part of or something similar. Censorship will not be the reason this site gets any sort of positive media attention.
I agree to censor shovelware works. I do not agree with the censorship of anything further than that.
This website is more than anything a community of artists and animators. You're putting roadblocks up on potential dialogue that our animation, art, games, whatever can inspire. Something is offensive? GOOD! Discuss it. talk about how it makes you feel. Respond to those feelings. Have others respond to it. Get new ideas and new ways to express those ideas. What sort of new connections and synapses could have sparked from this discussion? We'll never know now. No challenge, no growth, no progress.
I've always respected the loose guidelines this site has had as far as accepted content goes. I can be creative and work around censorship but I want to have the option to be offensive and provoke something. Maybe challenge people or maybe I'll discover something about myself through some controversial work.
With YouTube and other media sites out there offering similar entertainment, I find myself still coming to this site specifically as a way to filter through all the nonsense and find some real gems I may have otherwise passed over. Things that appeal to me in various ways. I would have never found one of my favorite animators, RomeoJr if it wasn't for this site. Would "A Norse in the 9th Ward" hold up to the censorship standards? How about my 9/11 flash? I know I've probably offended my fair share of individuals and maybe even some family members of victims. Should it be removed too?
I do not know the feeling of losing a child or family member in a cataclysmic incident and I hope I never will. I can't imagine the horror or pain they feel. However, censorship is not the answer. Censorship will not fill the void that the death of a loved one leaves. It won't end racism, it won't end homophobia, it won't end violence. It will end growth on an individual level and possibly within a community. Don't advocate the limitation of progress for this community.
That being said, you know the needs of this website better than I do, Tom. I'm just offering my perspective. All I ask is for you to consider it.
So I try and upload my .mov file to the portal and its got no sound. Whats up with that?

I could have sworn I saw paging Dr Seuss on the front page and being happy it made it on there because I saw it in the portal the previous day...it wasn't up there for long but it was there for a few days. This was before the Treasure Hunt.
Then I saw someone recommend it in the treasure hunt thread thinking he was an idiot because it had already been front paged.
Not that any of this matters because no ones reading this/ giving a shit about this anymore. The flash deserved more attention than it got on frontpage initially anyway so I dont mind it winning.
I am not a treasure : [

Found my voice actress. Will not be accepting anymore submissions. Her name is dellaciel and she has a very nice voice. Heres her profile incase anyone else would like a female VA.
Hey I need a FEMALE voice.
Description - It's for a goddess. It's meant to be apathetic towards a threat. As if she is bored. She is expressionless so something monotone and bored would be nice.
Line - "We are not goddesses known for our patience, demon. If you truly believe you, an errand boy for The Void, are capable of hindering us, make haste with your attempt...so we can be done with you."
Contact - PM me the line please.
No Deadline but ASAP would be nice
Thanks in advance
I've started creating a game for my interactive class and I need to know how to disable keys on the keyboard in flash.
Another problem in my game is that at one point I tell the user to push the up key. The user pushes the up key at the appropriate time and it gotoAndPlays the appropriate scene perfectly. Then when the next instance occurs, the user is told to push the down key. Once the down key is pressed, it plays the appropriate frame but the user can continue pressing the downkey and it will go back to the frame where I originally told the movie to play when the down key was pressed. The other strange part is that at the same time the down key can be pressed, the up key can also be pressed and will carry out its function of going back to the place in the timeline that it played when the user first pressed up. it's only at this area in the movie that there is this problem.
Please help me! Heres my code for both the up button area and the down button area.
Up button:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY _DOWN, upkeyhandler1);
stage.focus = buttonpushup;
function upkeyhandler1(event:KeyboardEvent): void{
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.UP)
{gotoAndPlay(717)}
}
down button:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY _DOWN, downkeyhandler1);
stage.focus = buttonpushdown;
function downkeyhandler1(event:KeyboardEvent): void{
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN)
{gotoAndPlay(1045)}
}
