You'll find that was a lot less witty if you actually read the first post.

Dear BBS,

I have come to the depressing conclusion that no matter how many threads in general I read, how much I try to think up a response for a topic, I simply cannot think of anything reasonable or contributory to say!

I am a long-time lurker... I can laugh along with your strange/pitiful anecdotes and cringe at your crudely-done photoshops... and yet, once I hit the 'post reply' button... there is nothing that I can say... I am completely speechless... ...any thought processes within my brain stop...

...I stare at the empty message box...

...and I stare... and I stare...

...until it is no more... I close the tab on my browser and change to something else...

...and this ritual repeats, day in... day out...

Why does this matter arise? There was a stage in 2006 where I did post several times, only to be stopped by the level of internet awkwardness that seemed to be emitted by my internet presence...

Is it fear of yet more BBSical rejection? The fear of the looming BBS ban for posting something too flame-y? Some hidden agenda about maintaining the reputation for my somewhat unknown username? My lack thereof a personality?

BBS, I write to you in hope of a remedy for this voluptuous antithesis... a request for your existential umbilical flotsam... can I be cured of this seeming, detraction from posting on the BBS?

I need your remedy BBS! Can you help me?

TLDR Version: I can't reply to anything on the general forum no matter the circumstance help me newgroundsz

Three on the first page... probably more deep down..

For the Newgrounds history geeks... has anyone else performed the feat of four Daily 1sts in a row?!

Has anyone else ever gotten 3 daily 1sts in a row?

About eight or so out of his 25... a tiny bit of searching to do but they're the ones that aren't tens...

No wonder. I thought he was just randomly bolding words because he was obsessive or something.

About 6 or so here.

Who is that person? Surely playing at that level there'd be something somewhere describing it in more detail or at least a commentator sounding very shocked or a wikipedia article. :|

With the new redesign and such, will you find it easier or harder to take more time voting on portal submissions?

I've only voted once, but with the uber-cool display it seems as if I took a long time to vote for that one flash.

:| I know, mindblowing discussion.

Hurrah! I am confused and happy at the same time!

I'm starting to become accustomed to eddsworld's work. :)

Should I be punished for liking the daily first?

Good day.

This deserved daily. But it shows what happens when you don't use grammar and you don't upload an icon.

Thanks Jimmy from preventing some animationless shite from getting an award! <3

It was quite an enthralling game as well, I must say!

This is madness! XD

Hopefully some of them get through. :)

Well, he's certainly winning other flash artists over.

But then after all my hard work with the "Frank Dude" series(which still hasn't gotten a collection, but deserves one), I have managed to gain an A+ batting average.

This has just gone too far. How can somebody be convinced that a couple of tweens is quality?

It's encoded, unfortunately. :(

PeteZahut has managed once again to get a 3.50+ with absolutely NO NEW ANIMATION. He didn't even bother to tween the symbols or anything! They just stood there and a monotonous audio track played in the background! What is this madness? There are real flash artists out there that would be ecstatic to have their movie get a 3+ score (let alone pass) who put hours of work into their flash movies and we have the newgrounds b/pers who blindly vote 5 simply because the flash is in a series. I'm usually not one to complain about scores (I don't care if a spam flash gets in the 2.6-2.9 range), but this is the most ridiculous case I've seen.

DO YOU REALISE THAT IF THIS WAS A LOW-SCORING DAY THAT FLASH COULD HAVE GOTTEN A DAILY AWARD?

In other news, boxhead! <3

Osuka won something. Hooray I guess?

On an unrelated note, what's with this PeteZahut guy? For the last week he's been coughing up multiple 'music videos' with the same re-used animation with minor changes and getting scores of 3.0+! In fact, his entire series uses the same background and has little to no animation yet it gets scores of praising reviews! WTF is going on?

OH DON'T TELL ME THEY'VE WON YOU OVER TOO

Just a tiny bit of a GIGANTIC UNDERSTATEMENT here.

Maybe days like today occur because flash artists who usually get a 3.50+ flash hold back from submitting because they don't want to get mocked for getting an award on a low-scoring day. But then that means that some other phelgm with barely any animation gets the awards, so I guess it ends up worse, and we only get high-scoring days thrice a week.

So I guess from now on I won't criticize any decent flash artist for submitting on a low scoring day, because hey, at least they'll prevent some other crap from getting an award.

So keep on doing what you guys do, people like Nicholas-Deary and jonwash.

But some of the stuff today was quite quaint.

this is of course hypocritical of me, but smarchlark

Well, it's much better than his unoriginal scat-humour-laced 'comedy' series.

CHRIS DRUMMOND WON AN AWARD!

I feel so happy inside

This has got to be the highest average scoring Saturday in months. Or maybe that's just me.

Because Weird Al will go all super ninja lawyer on us. Or there's a fear that that would happen anyway, not that it's likely.

Although we do have a Mario collection and what not, so... :|

It looks very... template-ish/design stolen from another site... :|

But that could just be me.

It's 'people with short names and short submission titles winning awards' day!

Weekly first and second by the same artist, is that a first? Or am I just not very observant?
