am I making any sense at all? no? good me neither
No, no your not. But we all know explaining a joke makes it unfunny.
Finally, something to post to!
My god! This club never turns off! I don't think even the NGSM goes this fast. By the time I quote somebody, a new topic is being discussed. By the time I write 3 words about that topic, I'm a page and a half behind.

He means that you try to get as many B/P points as possible. Each B/P point is worth 1 contest point. First place gets 5§, and second and third place gets 2§ If you get over 30 points, but not in the top 3, you'll still get 1 §. § are the NGDD currency. It's all explained here.

It was like a "WIN A FREE PS3" ad with the Virginia Tech symbol, the numbers 20, 30, and 50 and it said "How many died?"
Oh, it must have been funnier than it sounds. If only you had a copy of the pic, and posted it on putfile or something
Fuck you, meng.I won a T-Shirt for my submission in the Art Contest. Which is really cool because I've always wanted an Angry Face shirt, yet didn't have the funds to get one!Cool, although well drawn, the cereal itself sucks. "Fuck You, IMMA Tiger"?
I just thought it didn't make sense. And if it did, it's an old joke (just like in the bottom right hand corner.
Although the vitamin amounts I thought were pretty funny.Racist!
Hey, I'm not the one who put it on the box, now did I, racist.

No, but I haven't been on too much lately to have seen them
Cruddy way to get a promotion... :-(
Better than getting it through a Barney Bunch spam attack
And I hope nobody here or anyone they know was affected...
No, just a couple of People I know that know people who know people who go to Virginia Tech
If that makes sense.

I doubt I even have time to make it to Eagle.
I'm just going to go to SUmmer camp and get like 7 merit badges there.
Do you guys do this too?
Yeah, except we can only get like 5 merit badges, unless you spend like extra hour a day for the week during lunch or after dinner when you just want to shoot stuff or swim. It's hard, because I want some Eagle required, but they all need so much work before actually going to summer camp and are scheduled almost at the same time that it's hard to do a lot of them during the year.

Read through their thread, NG half-raided it. Ten sexy points to gryffendor, I lol'd so hard.
Yes, well, site raids are dumb. They never work because some one from the site finds out. Plus there are more members here than in the raid, so even if they did try mass protect, it wouldn't work, no matter what level they are.

Who is it? I haven't been here in a while, so I'm a little out of it.
So, yeah, after much pestering, I'm gonna go ahead and organize the first EGB Secret Episode Special. Flashes will be in four-packs; the first flash is already filled (Sentio, Snerd, Solidone, and Seamonky)...anyone interested in being in the second can PM me.

Co-authorship is available for all participants. You wouldn't have to DO anything, though, other than giving me consent to do you.

Look, we can't make this site any better without people trying. What Mr.Finland said below my post is right.; we need to help ourselves. But we need older members to be there to guide us, or at least show us topics and such that used to be funny or are still funny.
I forgot to post this:
PS. Naruto sucks. Here's the basic set-up: What happened last time/opening song for 5 minutes, then another 5 with "I'm going to do this mission. Believe it!"/traveling and if a continuation of a fight, they skip that and go to 20 minutes of "I'm going to do this move" and "I think he's going to do this move, I'll do this one" and then "He knows I'm going to do this move so he'll counter with this one move, so I'll counter with that move" and then 5 minutes of fighting.

Well, I think the total number killed is going to hold at 32, not that that's a good number. They don't know who the killer was, and they think he may have had a partner.
I feel really bad; just coming back from Spring break, some of them would have been graduating in a month or so and all those families who haven't heard from their kids, wondering if their alright. It's a terrible thing to have some one do that to a school, especially a college. I understand high school with all the cliques and peer pressure and such, but college is way different.

Same. I wasn't sure at first, because no one ever gets a rain day. Then news stations and such said that school was out, and who am I to debate them?

That was a major problem with the Barney Bunch...as time went on, the leadership of the group was trying to stick to funny, unusual-humor flash...however, many new members, and mere wannabe morons, kept making the rule-breaking flashes (the pop-up and crashing kind) that gave the BB such a fearsome reputation.
I hate people like that. They think that it's so funny to do that shit, or to post spam and get away with it. In fact, there's a good KK flash in the portal right now, if you want to vote on it.

Good morning sir.
Seems the portal didn't move much while I slept. This is quite aggravating...I mean, yesterday was Sunday, when all them school peeps are home, and still the portal moved like a gimp turtle.
Yeah, well today it should move a little faster with half the North East flooded I actually went out to the bus stop today in the pouring rain for 15 minutes before I went back home to find out that there's no school.
I hope things speed up as Pico Day approaches, as well the upcoming summer breaks. I want to get another star someday, and at this rate, that just ain't going to happen.
I hate Pico day and Clock Day. 1000 portal submissions, and only 10 were blammed. It's just a heaven for all those stat whores like snerd to get a bunch of protection points.

If it's a series I like and it's over, then I'll vote on it, but I try to stick to the smaller ones. I can watch them fairly quickly. Most of them are blams.
Same. I don't want to wait 10 minutes for a 9,000 kb file to load. But the most I usually do are 2,500 kb, and even then I don't watch the entire thing.
Weekends and nights are typically the best for b/p points. People have more time to be on the internet then. That's how I take care of mine.
Not really. When it's 9:00 PM on the West coast, it's midnight on the East. I doubt that anyone on the West coast can get more blam points on a Saturday night than a Wednesday afternoon. Although I do see more East coast people on the web.
I don't really have much of a goal for a single day. I just like to reach the checkpoints. Hopefully, I can get that $100 for depositting my points every day. I could use the money. B/p's are just something I do to add weight to my votes so when I start submitting shit, I can help it pass easier.
I don't have a goal either. I just vote on movies when I can. If I get 15 points, great. If I can only get 5, oh well. I don't think anyone wins that $100. I've never heard of anyone winning it. And when you submit a flash, I don't think the author can vote on it, but I may be wrong.
Oh, yeah, just stopping in, see what's going down.

Was it just me though, or were the queens nipples like two inches long?
No, the oracles nipples were longer. In fact, the oracles nipples were longer than her actual tits. But at least there wasn't a penis hanging around all those tits

Uh, their just restructuring it. There's no "restarting" the internet, or shutting it down. Just restructuring it so it runs faster and there are more IP addresses. I personally can't wait. It's true, I read something about it in the new EGM.

I am making a flash and well i named it Super Mario Bros. 07 and well i might want to change the name. So i was wondering if any of you guys could post some names that would be good.
Yes, if we know more than it's about Mario or others in the SMB world. But if it's a game that's similar to the originals, than would be a good name for the game

But being stat whores are a terrible thing. If everyone voted fairly, I don't care how many level 30 Elite Guard Supreme Commanders vote on the flash, there will be enough people who vote honestly to blam the flash.
Some times though, there are some good flashes by those crews, and the real spam comes from the noobs who say their part of Group X, when their not and just want to get a flash passed and/or make the group look bad.

Wow, that sucks. You work at UPS.
I really am sorry that your friend died.
Wow, who cares? People are going to buy it because of the other games were good, and it's made by Rockstar. They know that. They could make it an FPS and make it a rail shooter and all you do is shoot cars and small animals but as long as there's a "Grand Theft Auto" at the top, people will buy it.
Well, now that we're posting best shirts, I have one, but I'm too lazy to take a picture of it.
it has a picture of Mister Rodgers next to his little town that they show in the beginning, and around it it says "It's good in the 'Hood"
Please tell me it was only a BJ, or a HJ, because actual sex by a 14, or even 15 year old is too young. 16 to me seems like the right age to get it on.

1) No one line posting, and on the whole we prefer intelligent posts that contribute to the conversation.
2) No stat only posts- you can mention daily gains, but you must include something else to your posts as there are a few mods that will ban you for that.
3) No encouraging mass voting, no matter how annoying the group or how bad the flash.
Easy rules, followed all of them in the PD sir. Not that hard to follow anyway.
Now pick a bunk, feed the minotaurs, and get to work soldier. Be grateful it isn't Carebear mating season, as well.
Thank you sir! Wait, what happens during Carebear mating season?
So I'm so late on this, I didn't realize this place would move so fast in less than 24 hours
