We are fast! Posted October 29th, 2008 in General

Facts... The Earth spins around its axis every 24 hours at 1000 miles per hour and oribits the sun once a year at 66000 miles per hour. Adding the spinning and orbiting means you have travelled about 185 miles since you started reading this thread. Or, put another way, you are travelling through space at 18.5 miles per second .... faster than a bullet. Have a nice day.
( This was a quote edited from " I am a passenger on the spaceship Earth". Buckminster Fuller.)

Whilst we all did this sort of thing in science and probably did not take much notice, It struck me as an interesting fact, written in this manner.
Do you have a similar fact that we dont think of that much , but is nevertheless happening.

Response to: Self voting? Posted October 24th, 2008 in Where is / How to?

Thanks for the reply. I wasnt worried about it that much it just seemed odd for that to be permitted.

Self voting? Posted October 24th, 2008 in Where is / How to?

I saw something that someone had written on another site which suggested that people vote for their own submissions on Newgrounds. This I thought was against all rules and when I looked in the rules on Ng I couldnt find anything written prohibiting this. Do people actually vote for themselves??
Sorry if this is a silly thread and probably has been answered a million times. Can someone show me where the rules for this are? I dont think its a good idea if it was allowed because surely people could just vote for a rubbish submission of there own with 5 each day.

Response to: Uses for the Male Nipple Posted October 18th, 2008 in General

I suppose now I have to admit to having three nipples. So has my Dad. My son hasnt.
Before you ask too many questions.... Yes its true. I have a smaller one below my right one. Yes it is a nipple. No i am not a freak ( except in the Bible). No I wont send a photo. No I wont be feeding three babies at the same time. Its not like the stick on one that Scaramanger had in the Bond film. I have one dick and two bollocks. ( Sorry Girls no photo either).

Response to: Women who are not getting enough! Posted October 18th, 2008 in General

Surely the ugly woman wouldnt have to go to an Australian sheep shagger for sex when there are probably an equal amount of ugly men in each country to keep them satisfied. Having said that often you see beautiful women with ugly blokes and vice versa.

Response to: Whats it like when you're high? Posted October 18th, 2008 in General

I have tried various different drugs in my life and now I dont do anything.
All I would say is that for every high (theyre all different) you have to pay for it with a low.
In other words ....... Its not worth doing drugs for a high. Seek something like meditation or a sport
to give you the bodies natural drugs like endorphines(mispelt i think?). These you will not have to pay for with a low.

Response to: I have a sound problem on a flash. Posted October 12th, 2008 in Game Development


its weard i had the same problem ages ago, all i do now is set my freme rate to 20 and my sound matches up all the time :3

I will try that if I keep getting problems. But it seems my problem was caused by testing audio effects
etc about half way through my flash without having any other sounds before. I thought that would be ok
but it wasnt. I have now added a background music layer in the timeline which runs throughout the whole animation which has now "stabilised" my other sounds when rendered to swf. I dont understand why that happens but its helps to know that by putting a background track in works.
If you did not want to change you flash to 20fps you could do this and turn down the sound.
Thanks for your help anyway.

I reckon its imbedded, because I simply have added sound to a flash animation to upload to Ng. I dont intend to do anything else with it like putting it on a website other than here.

Im sorry but I dont know what you mean.
I have recorded voice from a mike and also sound effects from a disc. Nothing that I dont normally do.

Yeah, I had already checked that. They are all set to stream.And still doesnt work.


I have made a flash movie and have just started to add some sounds on a couple of different timeline layers. When I playback the timeline everything works perfectly as planned. But when I make an swf
the first half of the movie is synchronized well then for some reason the sounds start to play a few seconds before they should. I have double checked everything and all seems ok until I render to swf.
I have never had this problem before on other flashes and have not made any changes to the configuration.
Can someone throw some light on this please?

We used to play shit coins. Posted October 5th, 2008 in General

When we were kids we used to sit outside one of the many coin arcades next to the beach where crowds of people would walk on a sunday afternoon and carefully place low value coins on the ground.
What the unsuspecting finder of our treasures did not realise is that the downfacing side to these coins
was covered in dog shit. This was an hilarious pastime watching people pick these up and thinking that were lucky when they soon realised that they were not.

Did you have an equally disgusting pastime.

Get a job working for a builder. Or like I do, dig holes and plant trees. This is a good way of getting fit and earning money. Ive got big muscles and dont ever go to the Gym.

Who are the review crew? Posted October 5th, 2008 in General

Who are the review crew? Are they employed to watch every flash thats put on Ng? It must be a bit tedious watching stick men kill eachother so many times a day.

Response to: Newgrounds: A place for artists? Posted September 13th, 2008 in General

The only thing Id like to say is that as there are so many users who dont actually contribute to this site with Flashes or Music, it seems a shame that those who do (the Artists), could easily get lost in that crowd. If those who contribute where given an Artistic status seperating them from the watchers
it would ultimately result in more exposure. Maybe there could be a points or judgement system in addition to the existing one intoduced so the artists had to show a certain consistency so as not too allow anyone to receive this status.

I fail to see how older people joining a website apparently targeted towards young socially outcasted teenage males would have significant positive effects on the world itself.

I didnt actually realise that NewGrounds was targeted towards socially outcast young males, although there does seem to be a few of them attracted here, there also seems to be a lot of clear minded intellegent mature thinkers on here aswell( of all ages) who seem to be in my opinion offering their
creativity for others to see or hear. For contemporary artists( The flash and music creators here) there could not be a better place for exposure than Newgrounds. Hats off to Tom Fulp ( whos 30 something).

Im not after your respect. It was merely a question that crossed my mind. But I dont understand what sign up date and postcount has got to do with respect. While you were on ng I was doing other things.

Now I came out of the closet with my age It made me realise that I dont really have to withold my age on my userpage. So Its on there now. I thought evryone on here has got to realise that sooner or later you too will reach my age and will still probably enjoy making flashes or whatever there is and hopefully there will still be a Ng and i will bel just be a seventy something old mixing it with a load of forty something olds.Thanks for the support everybody and if anyone ends up getting sexually abused up the back passage....

HAI THAR.

People could call me a pedo but theyd be wrong. Would a pedo bother to do flashes just to chat up little boys? He would more than likely be hanging outside your school gates. I ve got a beautiful wife and two kids. Oh and by the way If there was a firing squad to shoot pedophiles I d volunteer to be in it!
