I thought Best of April was the best of the lot. It was a hilarious idea, but maybe needed more/better art to win? But, since this contest was actually about you I guess it's OK for you to pick whatever you want.

It would be a rather cowardly move on the part of Newgrounds to take this off. There are probably thousands of movies on here that use copyrighted music, so that is a lame excuse. I would just let him resubmit it with different music and let it stay here forever.

As far as the quality of the game goes, there were misspelled words, which makes the game worse automatically. The engine was OK and I was fine with the graphics. The missions were interesting but very glitchy, especially in the school where students would randomly disappear and I couldn't win because of it. The cutscenes could be a little flashier. Overall, the game was OK. There are thousands of worse games on this site. With new music it should be allowed to stay.

Is This What You Want? was a piece of shit. It's laughable that Camel Spider didn't even crack the top 10. Seriously, that was better than Camel Spider?This top 5 thing surprises and disappoints me on a monthly basis. I don't know why I bother voting since my picks never win and movies that I shut off in disgust halfway through keep winning prizes.

You have to keep normal advertising on here because the store will never keep you afloat by itself. If people order a lot in the next few months it doesn't mean the sales will continue. People only need so many stickers/shirts/merchandise before they are done buying them. Then sales will dry up and you will have to bring advertising back anyway. People are angrier if you take away advertising and bring it back than they would be if it never left.

Well, apparently another one of my reviews has been deleted by some douchebag(s) fanboy who doesn't understand the review criteria and is simply upset that I gave their favorite horrible movie a bad score. To counteract this I have decided to just give the movie(s) my review was deleted from a 0 out of 5 every day until I no longer remember to do so. I just hope the douchebag fanboy in question realizes they have done more harm than good in the long run.

Tom, I would just like to take a minute to congratulate you and your Behemoth cohorts on your decision to withdraw your game from Slamdance. I'm sure it was a difficult decision because it hurts the exposure for Castle Crashers and will probably result in less copies being purchased. I respect you guys and all the other developers who withdrew their games. It takes a lot of courage to do something like this, especially when most of the entrants are probably already struggling to make ends meet.

Good luck with showing your game at other festivals. I can't wait to play it when it's done.

No fucking way did Carol of the Robots deserve top prize.

I think your review deleters are being nazis. I just received a notification that one of my reviews was deleted and it did not go against any of the review policies that are included in the FAQ. Maybe these people should be the ones to read the review policies so they can get a fucking clue about what they are doing.

Anyways, it really doesn't matter since reviews don't matter on this site. Having 1, 10, or all of my reviews deleted has no effect whatsoever on my account since it doesn't have anything to do with experience points or blam/protect points, which are the ones that actually effect my voting power. Have fun assholes.

This song sucks shit. You need to get a life and stop trying to come up with ways to attract internet women to your cyber chat rooms. Also, along with that, I would suggest that you visit your local psychiatrist to get your medication changed, as well as intensive therapy to try to discover why you even made this.

Then you should fall on your knees and pray to God for redemption.

His account is gone, but the reviews remain, and being there no way to report offensive or abusive reviews on the audio portal, whats stopping all the idiots who like doing it migrating there?

I'm not sure what he did wrong in that review. He gave you some helpfu suggestions on your work. Perhaps you may want to consult a psychiatrist and/or God and get help as stated. He didn't call you an asshole or anything else bad afterall.

Hey review mods. Could someone go thru my early reviews, like the first 50 or so, and delete the ones that don't conform to Newgrounds policy. I don't like some of my reviews and would like to change them myself, but Newgrounds currently doesn't have that option. I'm sure some of them do not conform to the review guidelines in various ways.

I think graphics and sound are relatively important, as is humor when watching a comedic flash, but numbers don't really tell the artist anything. The body of the review will give the artist the most information, unless it's written in leet speak or something.

Great job putting the page together Tom. This page reminds me...

OMG what happened to John's Arm? That was one of the greatest flash series.

LOL...all those jumps you did in the pictures were hilarious.

I'm glad you are updating the search stuff. This site had one of the worst I had ever seen...I could never find what I was looking for.

I sure am glad you are cleaning up the forums. This way it will be easier to find more serious and important topics like Unicorns With Dicks for Horns and Tricockatops. Pfft.

I made Johnny Utah's first post my wallpaper. Hilarious.

...then what is?

I don't know if you would call it a stat and I will almost certainly never create and/or submit a flash...but if I were an author I would be much more interested in reviews and how many people put my movies and myself in their favorites. I think most stats are fairly meaningless, but reviews let the authors know what people really think. The new private message system can also serve this purpose.

On another note, I was being sarcastic when saying you were doing this to improve your own batting average Tom. Obviously, you have more important things to do with your life and The Behemoth and the future of Newgrounds are more important than your batting average.

This sounds fishy. Let me guess...the real reason for this is so Tom doesn't have all those mediocre programming experiments he made over the years counting against his score? Can't fool me.

On another note, I've always thought it was far too easy to get an A+ rating and this will only make it easier. Perhaps the thresholds should be changed someday.

I haven't seen anything from you on here in ages. I can only hope that you haven't released a movie in a year because you have been making some type of epic Pee-Man movie that will soar to #1 and remain there forever.

The new design looks nice but is rather large and bulky and doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the site. I prefer the old look and the old motto. Personally, I think the new motto is rather lame, but whatever. Overall, I don't think this new design matters at all. I'm pretty sure you won't lose any visitors because of the new design but I also doubt that the new design/motto will bring in any more business for the site. This whole process seems like a waste of time.

If this does manage to bring in more advertisers that would be great because I am getting pretty sick of the damn talking smiley face banners. Whenever I visit this site I do so with the sound off now and I'll be damned if I ever click on one of those pieces of shit.

Whenever I close my browser it automatically logs me out. This is irritating.

Jesus Christ Xbox360. Half of the posts on this thread are from you. Page after page it is someone saying something and then you responding without offering anything valuable to the conversation. Is it really necessary to reply to everyone's posts with "we know." Having never played the console version of Alien Hominid, I was curious about the pudding boss and it is very difficult to find out how he was created when I have to look through 100 of your bullshit posts. Cease and desist.

Irving only got 18th!!?!?!?!??! What is wrong with you people?

Indian Outlaw was far and away the best flash submitted in August imo. After that I didn't really care about many of the submissions. It was definitely a better month for games than movies overall though.

It still has not been explained to me why I could not vote for The Incredible Screaming Cat for top 5 movies of the month. It made the front page, so why coudln't I vote for it? It was the second best movie of the month. Salad Fingers 6 is the only movie I thought was better the entire month.

On a more serious note, it is also nice to see that Legendary Frog and other big named people are stealing money from the deserving people with their completely mediocre flashes. Tomorrow's Nobodies, Code Veronica, and Decline of Gaming were all better than Crow's Life this month? My ass.

Why couldn't I vote for the Incredible Screaming Cat?!?! I would have voted it my #2 or #3 of the month...it made the front page so why was it not available for voting? I hope it is on next month's ballot at least or an extremely talented author will go unrewarded for all his hard work.

1. MGS 3: Crab Battle.

2. Nim's Winter tale.

3. Bunnykill 3 Vol.1.

4. Gooberstory.

5. The Tourette's Burglar.

Very funny guys. Please make more of those ads.

My picks this month were:

1. Madness Depridation
2. 3 3ast 3 3urious
3. There She Is 2
4. The Real Legend of Zelda 2
5. Motherload

I am a big fan of the original Contra but the flash version he made was awful imo. It was extremely faithful to the original, but the hit detection was terrible and the character moved in an extremely choppy manner. These factors made the game about 5 times harder than the original version. Frustration sets in quickly when you remember how smooth the original was.

The movies that won that got my votes were Interactive Buddy and Firth's Valentines Day movie.

Thanks a lot for allowing me to vote guys.
