Best verse TVJohnny ever did was his 2nd verse against Scuare... the one where he just talked over the beat.. Funny as fuck.

Hey, I said the most recent rounds have been good... I've enjoyed this competition, for the most part.

The whole thing is about dissing people, anyway, so yeah.... Don't take it all so serious... It's a damn joke.

Damn... where's TVJohnny when you need him?

Don't let those faggots get into your mind.

Just hit em with more lines like

"You the only rapper I know
Got a thousand dollar mic
That sounds like it's underwater and broke
Two guitars in your studio and can't play a daaaaaaaam thing"

For what it's worth, I like this Senator John Dean guy. Been listening to the dubhop mixtape and I like it.

Maybe I'll enter this competition next year. Fuck it.

Tom, I think you're over-estimating the influence of the so-called "loyalist" fans.

You should take the damn money.

There's nothing cowardly about suicide....

We're all going to die anyway....

Frankly, I'm too pussy to commit suicide.... so from that, I would say, it's cowardly NOT to commit suicide... I can't think of anything that takes more courage.

Android can be very easily hacked.

I don't recommend downloading any Android apps whatsoever.

Frankly, I don't recommend using an Internet-enabled phone at all. Go back to an old Nokia or something.

Tom said, about a month ago, that once Newgrounds was redesigned, they would show up as "Unpublished Projects", but now they haven't.... I will try and get an update on this.

I was a real dumbass for deleting these. I was making a decent amount each month, and so, I really wasn't thinking this through at all.

Ad Api Issue- Posted February 21st, 2012 in Game Development

When I removed my Flash games back on October 22 2011, I didn't realise that it would disable the Newgrounds Ad API. Is it possible to restore the games, as in, Mario Movie Maker 4, and Mario Movie Maker 5?

(I was told to post this in Flash instead of General)

I thought Jon's post was good up until he said braindead people are happy. If he had any experience of the world, he'd know that most regular people are stressed a lot of the time, and only have a small amount of time for partying.

I think as long as you test it on your own computer and you have internet access... then they approve it.

It appears so. I think with the older API (the one where you had a .as file), Newgrounds manually approved/denied the ads based on the quality of your Flash. I may be wrong. Regardless, it was Adblock Plus that was deceiving me.

Response to: Ng Api Ad Approved Issue Posted September 15th, 2010 in Game Development

For the record, my ads were approved before I even uploaded the game. So, yeah. I'm not even sure the approval process works. Maybe it's because I've uploaded games on Newgrounds before, that passed. Or maybe all movies get auto approved first, and then un-approved later on if they are found to have inappropriate content.

Response to: Ng Api Ad Approved Issue Posted September 15th, 2010 in Game Development

I just realised something really retarded. I was using Adblock Plus. I turned it off, and now the ads show!

Yes. As I said, the ads show up when I test them locally, just not on Newgrounds. It gives me exactly the right output when I export, which is:

[Newgrounds API] :: Connecting to the Newgrounds API Gateway...
[Newgrounds API] :: You have successfully connected to the Newgrounds API Gateway
[Newgrounds API] :: Movie identified as [name]
[Newgrounds API] :: This movie has been approved to run Flash Ads!

I am using the following settings, aside from the ID and encryption key:

Simulate session: No
Use Debug Mode: Yes
Use Default Error Screens: Yes
Use Default Medal Popups: Yes

Also, uploading to the test area for admin approval.... it makes no sense. It might not even be the finished game, so why would they approve ads from the test area?

Alright then. I'll leave it in the test area until ads start showing.

Response to: Ng Api Ad Approved Issue Posted September 15th, 2010 in Game Development

Plus, will it get approved while it's in the dump area, or do I have to release it to the portal first?

I uploaded to the test area, and it shows no ad.

So what you're saying is... even though it says ad approved in my api settings, it hasn't actually been approved, and I just have to wait until it shows.. or doesn't. I get no notice.

Ng Api Ad Approved Issue Posted September 15th, 2010 in Game Development

If I go to the NG API flashads page for a game I am about to release, it says "Ad status: approved" at the bottom. I test my Flash and the ads work fine locally. However, if I upload a test file to the NG Dump with this connector, it doesn't show any ads. Is there a separate approval process to actually get the ads shown, and if so, how long does that take and when does it happen, and WHERE will I see the status?

Thanks.

Response to: Dynamic text inside MC problem Posted September 9th, 2010 in Game Development

Although that fails, because it gets horribly pixelated when you increase or decrease the size, and I'm on AS2, so I apparently can't use PNG encoding.

So, this brings me back to the original question. Hmm

Response to: Dynamic text inside MC problem Posted September 9th, 2010 in Game Development

I'm not sure there is a way, so I'm just going to use BitmapData to take a screenshot.

Response to: Dynamic text inside MC problem Posted September 9th, 2010 in Game Development

It's a multiline MC, obviously.

Dynamic text inside MC problem Posted September 9th, 2010 in Game Development

I have dynamic text inside a Movieclip. The text can be changed at runtime, to anything the user types.

The Movieclip can also be changed at runtime, in size.

Thus, when the MC is changed, the text sometimes will not all fit on the visible screen, and sometimes it will, but parts of the text will roll onto the next line.

I need the text to show consistently regardless of the Movieclip size.

So:

hello, i am typing something
right now.

.. might sometimes show as

hello, i am typing
something right now

or....

hello, i am typing
something right

...

I need it to always show up how it was originally typed.

it is not a bug. the width and height of a display object are defined in the documentation as the width and height of the display object bounds. aka it's bounding box which changes as a display object rotates except for the special case of a circle who's bounds remain the same as it rotates.

Yes, I know that the width and height are of the bounding box, but the point is... when I set the bounding box, it doesn't go to what it's supposed to. See the first post.

Well, it is a bug, but I just set the rotation to 0 first, then set the width and height, then set the rotation to what it should be. That fixes it well enough.

Response to: Flash bug? Rotate & set dimensions Posted September 8th, 2010 in Game Development

By the way, the box is not rotated 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees or anything nice like that. It's at a tilted angle.
