Tom, did you reply to all these idiots, "April Fools, asshole!" ?

That would have been awesome.

The awards are totally earned, man! That is a great game (glad I voted!!!)!

Awesome, Tom! I saw the Newgrounds tweet and had to swing over here and say "congrats!"

Have a great life with him and the wife, man! May he make "Pico 2" because God knows YOU aren't gonna!!!!

I've written the basic script for the NGDD Flash, I will be tweaking it for the next few hours. It's not long or exhausting, because of the quantity of stuff to say, some will just be expressed in text on a different page but the main stuff will be done by our chosen voice actor, Ebonyte.

Ok, good. I need a friggin' script to do anything.

I also now won't be starting this until this weekend, but I may be able to storyboard before then w/ Short. Just depends since I am back to work today.

Well deserved, this guy's stuff is excellent.

Damn! I knew about the Wal Mart guy, but the Toys R Us one is news to me. Holy shit... shooting inside a toy store? WITH kids there?

All I have to say is that if the accounts are correct and the two people dead are the two people who shot guns, then they got what they deserved. Assholes.

Oh! I made cookies and they were delicious.

Wait, are they for the fisting or Thanksgiving?

Both actually.

Speaking up fisting...
LEVEL UP!!

As for deposits, I've missed many of them over the years. Maybe nearly a year's worth? I don't care much, though. It's the internet.

Plus, tomorrow I get a shiny, new level icon. =)

Oh, man screw Black Friday. I don't feel like rolling into a mall or some other retailer in a sea of losers and end up having to fight some 47 year old MILF wanna-be over a Tickle Me Elmo doll that she feels will make her son finally love her.

No thanks, count me out. The sales are almost all online, too.

Happy T-Day (a day late) I drove to NH to visit my bro and dad with my wife. That was a good time. Then we got back and we went and visited some friends and drank for about 5 hours (not me so much, I was driving), had some fun and now I'm finally home and ready for bed.

Good news: One more day left of this horrid avatar icon. The silver fist will be mine tomorrow!!!! Who's up for a good old fashioned fisting?

Everyone? Cool. Get in line.

Oh! I made cookies and they were delicious.

Ok, a Tankman, but more skinny. You talking like a more realistic-looking person or just a different design?

I'd like to lean away from realism since it makes animating much slower and annoying. Black and white people are a beautiful thing to animate.

And no easter eggs, please. I won't have hidden porn in my flash, even if Phantom commands me (I'd just leave the NGDD)... but, we could have an easter egg that is extremely hard to find and isn't porn but a screen that says something along the lines of "JOIN THE NGDD!" or something more creative. Hey, I'm not the ideas man, I'm just the animator.

I'd like to see an Easter Egg. Something simple, NOT hard to find, and funny. A cock JOKE is just that, a joke. But it certainly doesn't have to be that, either. It could simply be something that goes from whatever story we have and be some backstage joke or whatever.

Anyway, RSQ, if you can actually read this post, seeing you offered to animate, it'd be appreciated if you contributed to the discussion of it too. It's good to see if you're alive.

I did (reply) and I am (alive). =p

So, what are these tankmen doing? Recruiting? Talking?

I must brainstorm.

Does that include flash co'd on because I can't help it if some of my buddies decide to co-author me on something,

Well, I certainly would hope NOT. If it's out of your control, it's out of your control.

I, for one, welcome the stand against pure spam flash. If it is obvious a Flash has no purpose and had no effort or care in its appearance then it shouldn't be linked to this club that stands for quality in the portal.

Coco Crisp was traded to the Royals for reliever Ramon Ramirez. He was 3-1 out of the pen with a 2.64 ERA. He's 27yo and had 70 K's, 31 Walks and gave up only 2 HR last season thru 71.2 innings pitched. Looks like a sold reliever going to beantown and they NEED one.

Additionally, Mike Mussina has decided to call it a career and retire.

The Red Sox are also in talks with A.J. Burnett, but still have a ways to go before any deal will be called. IF they even take him.

Here's an idea: no more talk of the flame war from here on out. No interjections, no nothing. Use PM to APF or Phantom if you need anything else. There's other stuff to deal with right now.

Seriously, no more from anybody. Don't even quote this.

As for the DoDBot page it is starting to really shape up. I like the look of it so far.

As for the Flash bit, just letting everyone know that ideas are being tossed around via PM, so that is moving as well.

I agree, this looks pretty cool.

What do you folks say?

I can surely brighten up the NGDD profile and probably can help with an advertisement Flash. I'll start working on some pictures to brighten up the NGDD profile today. Is there anybody else here who is decent at Flash

I can throw in a hand. I know a little about Flash and can navigate some stuff around for you. I've been so... silent lately. I need something to do!

As an animator I'd just like to say this:

I've never felt that using the portal to gain attention and poke fun at people THRU SPAM was a good idea. I just feel it's childish.

I do get it, though. He said something that offended you and you are trying to make a point, but I just feel you're going about it the wrong way by spamming the portal with, let's face it, utter crap.

Wow, my work unblocked NG's forums!

I don't know who goes thru stuff and blocks it sometimes, then unblocks it, but they SUCK AT THEIR JOB! I mean, really big time SUCK.

Anyway, hello again, everyone. I've been in Portland, Maine and the internet is HORRIBLE there. I tried watching flash movies and a simple 1MB movie takes up to several MINUTES to load. Bleh!

I had to entertain myself in other ways so I dragged my 360 up with me. I must say, Fable 2 is excellent fun.

I did get a little B/P done, but my high standards of not voting 2 on pure crap that'll pass anyway kept me from getting much. I'm almost the next level, though. Less than 10 days left on that.

That Dennis Parker DVD one is hilarious!

I'm just posting to stop the ridiculous multi-posting going on.

Red Sox are sucking on all fronts. you don't generally win playoff games with only 2 runs.

Ok, they got 4 now... whatever.

I won't say it's over, but it sure as hell is bleak. Even with a "W" in the next game with Dice-K, Beckett's going to suck and finish off the year, most likely.

At 10/7/08 12:47 AM, Dream-of-Duke wrote: Wow, what a game! First, Terry Francona (normally good) got haunted by Grady Little's ghost of the 2003 ALCS by taking out Okajima in favor of Masterson after a 2 outs walk.

Actually, if he was haunted by his ghost he would have left him IN and Okajima he would've given up the runs. Terry did the right thing, but Masterson started missing his spots and that is what caused the problem.

Then Masterson ruined Lester's chance of winning (which was a shame since he pitched 7 shutout innings) by giving up 2 runs in 8th and having a runner on 3rd base with 1 out in the ninth with a tied game.

Yeah, it's too bad about Lester not getting the "W", but he did a damned good job.

When Terry Francona finally woke up and replaced Masterson with Delcarmen, Varitek made an improbably play to tag out the runner on 3rd.

That was an awesome play.

Finally, it came down to this: with 2 outs in the bottom of 9th and Jason Bay on 2nd base, Lowry had a chance to be the hero, and he delievered the walk off single which sent us to the ALCS for the second straight year! What a game!!!!

What got me on those plays is how close the right fielder was to diving and catching Bat's hit, then how close the 2nd baseman was to getting Lowry's hit. Those two plays were VERY close. It was nice to see Lowry come thru when he had bases loaded last night and flew out with 2 outs where a hit would've won it.

It was also great to see Pedroia finally get a hit and a BIG one at that. I still feel that he needs to slide down to 8th until he heats up. This is the playoff and no time to be stubborn with the batting order.

Dont worry I have only just got the hang of it. Fleek actually submitted some more stuff recently not the worst spam, I have ever seen still shit mass voted through no doubt. By the way do get the fancy picture read Sir-Nuts reply.

Man, nothing really changes around here. I don't get why people don't get sick of the spam in the portal.

I thought Wade made a brigade or some shit and this stuff was supposed to get deleted?

Anyway, good news form me, it seems. My company is doing layoffs, but I should be safe since they are sending me for an install and I'll be away when it happens. YAY!

If I get some actual time to myself (and I should) I hope to make a Halloween vid. And guess what? It's going to be a musical. God save you all, I'm going to sing.

Oh, and how do you do that link to a movie thing? That's new to me. (also linking to spammers like that is probably what they want)

ORLY?

I found this and thought it was pretty funny.

Thanks, everybody for the re-welcome.

To sum it up, Yes my wife is hot, and yes I've had sex with a real woman. A human woman at that.

I read about Newman passing. I don't think I ever really watched much of his stuff, but he makes a eman salad dressing and his popcorn isn't too shabby, either. he will live on with us on the cover of boxes and bottles in your local Food Mart.

Let's see... Oh, YES! Watch this! I made it.

Ok, folks I'm checking in a bit here.

Go easy on me. ie. Use lube.

I guess I'll throw a bit of an update for those who don't keep a close eye on me.

I got married in August, went on a Honeymoon and the whole months leading up to the wedding were rife with business because it seemed like not one day was boring, or at home. Weddings take more planning than I care for and for that reason I plan on it being my only one.

Anyway, to top it off now we have an EPT that has a little "+" sign on it so things are still a bit hectic.

Well, no $100 for me but I'll be checking out that webcam.

Thanks for the shout-out, Tom! You have pleased the penicorn.
