If you did whats it like and whats there to do for fun instead of gambling?

See here. There are lots of stores and stuff on the boardwalk other than casinos. Ocean city is better for the "family friendly" stuff though.

But you SHOULD actively check to see if a topic hasn't already been created about the very same thing.

Having done both, while the difference between very little sleep (1-2 hours) and getting none at all is practically nothing, I prefer to get the little bit I can if possible.

Even putting my head down for a few minutes at a time when sleep-deprived gives me little energy boosts to get through the day. Ultra-short power-naps ftw.

Then don't.

Keep medal discussion here, and try to contribute more than "I got XXX medal."

Unless I make friends with a Japanese speaker I'm totally boned.
Do you think a few phrase-books would suffice?

Knowing how to say "Where is XXXX station" when navigating the subway, bus, or train would be supremely helpful, since those are going to be your main modes of transportation. As long as you can get around without getting lost, you should be ok (which is easier said than done; I got lost a zillion times).

The other problem is food, as unless you plan on living on KFC, McDonalds, Denny's and whatever you can buy from 7-11, reading menus and ordering food at Japanese restaurants will probably be tough, especially if you're a picky eater.

If you can get around, eat, and have a place to sleep (ideally a youth hostel, which will be cheap and will have English speaking people your age staying there), YOU WILL SURVIVE!!!

I've been to Japan and for any people who want to go, you better know Japanese or be a part of an English-speaking program when you visit, because otherwise your trip is not going to be nearly as fun as it could be. Navigating Tokyo without a word of Japanese in you = painful.

As for me, I'd like to visit England. Maybe if I plan well enough I can do some study-abroad there for college at a place like Oxford or Cambridge. It seems like a cool place to visit as I've never been to Europe, and I wouldn't have to worry about a language barrier either ;)

Of course, Spain or a Latin American country would be better for practicing my Spanish, but (and this is going to sound wildly ignorant) the culture of those countries has never really interested me :/

Refresh the page and try again, or restart or try another browser.

This happens to me often, but when I refresh the page and try again the medals usually show up. Try doing this with a game with a medal that's easy to get quickly (and which you haven't gotten yet) to test if the medals are registering in your account when you get them. If not, refresh the page and try again.

Why is there this distinction?

- Your Flash is first placed "under judgement" when it is submitted, and can be blammed or whistled during this time if it is completely worthless or breaks the rules
- When submitting audio for the first time, your submission(s) must be validated by an audio portal mod.

Those are the checks on Flash and audio submissions; the scouting system is the check for the art portal.

Please make more worthwhile threads.

Those are the only people with the power to delete your account. Either continue to wait, or if you haven't sent a PM in a while, send another with good reasons why your account should be deleted.

There's nothing else (unfortunately or not) that you can really do.

Woo!

But man, that was my first time every meeting Internet people in real life. I felt so freaking awkward for a while, and as a result felt like such a creep kinda just standing around the Newgrounds booth. Luckily, I fit in a little better as time went on.

Hope you guys get a big turnout tomorrow!

Yeah, really. No need to make the same/similar thread again and again. If you have something new to add to a thread you've already made, bump the thread. If your thread was locked, take a hint.

At 6/15/09 08:38 PM, Eye-Love-Poozy wrote: What? How is this possible?

When the exp system was first created, I believe users would gain 1 point for each part of the site they visited, and could get up to a maximum or 9 or 11 points or something like that. Furthermore, users could deposit at any time (once per day), so someone could visit one section of the site, deposit, and only gain 1 exp point.

This is, at least, how I have heard the system used to work. There was also a referral system, but I believe users gained 10 exp per referral, so that wouldn't count towards the odd exp amount.

In November last year you stated you were already attending an ivy league school.

In that thread, you also stated you were near "Tom Fulp's alma mater," which would imply you were currently a student Penn, not Harvard.

Please explain these discrepancies.

What are the guidelines around creating a username?

Your username should be as close as possible to your true name (e.g. Jsmith or John.Smith). Names such as CoachJohn, BlondeJane, etc. don't clearly identify you as well as your true name.

Haha, so much for that, Facebook.

Well, it was deleted from Newgrounds. However, you can watch it here.

As others have pointed out, it's a very well-known and posted about easter egg. Search for "faic" or "Angry" or "easter" and other threads should come up.

At 6/7/09 07:49 PM, Ridges2 wrote: i have tried everything turns out crap

You can start here if you're looking for example .fla files to work with. However, you're going to need to practice if you want your work to turn out better. Going through a few tutorials, for example, is not nearly enough.

Finally, post specific Flash questions in the Flash forum.

No.

Or, watching too much TV/staring at PC screens, does that damage eyesight?

Permenantly? Not necessarily. If you did so as a child, yes.
