The global economy is crumbling but ten lucky folks can still win $250 for Best of February! Visit your account page to see if you are part of the voting panel! If so, VOTE!

This past weekend, Egoraptor, Tomamoto, The-Swain and Luis set up a Newgrounds booth at MegaCon in Florida and ate cookies. Check out these other Megacon videos posted by RubberNinja, as well as an update on the Australian bush fire fundraising. Thank you everyone who contributed!

Elios stenciled the NG tank on his wall, check it out!

Luka has posted a Newgrounds London Meet IV video, while Luis is also pretty much done with his London Meet Mega-Site full of pictures and stories from the event.

Speaking of Luis, have you played Portal Defenders yet??? It's the first game on Newgrounds to feature in-site medals, aka achievements or whatever you want to call them. Yes, they exist on Xbox 360 and some other sites, but the system built by PsychoGoldfish actually dates back to work he did on his site for Alloy: Arena in 2004, where the game logged achievements such as "hang time" on the Goldfish's scoreboards. Yeah I'm being defensive right now but it never hurts to have a little history. Goldfish has revamped and improved the system for Newgrounds and it will soon be available to more developers!

This weekend is the Amserdam Meet! Click that link for details and a list of attendees.

We got a really angry voicemail from someone waiting for the Street Fighter Collab to come out. For now this is the best we can give you:

And here's a 13 year old game developer to watch:

Go vote! More fun news will be upon you shortly.

...so long as hits keep coming.

Speaking of Luis, have you played Portal Defenders yet???

Yeah, I got up to Wadolf so far. The Johnny/Stamper combo was lovely and hilarious at the same time. HADOKEN!

This weekend is the Amserdam Meet! Click that link for details and a list of attendees.

Makes me think of making my own meetup at Hershey Park, PA this late May...

We got a really angry voicemail from someone waiting for the Street Fighter Collab to come out

...and Stamper missed his opportunity to record it like the last one.

Go vote! More fun news will be upon you shortly.

But I thought there was no fun allowed...

I love the medal system, and portal defenders!

I have a contact who is doing a monthly video game section for News of The World Scotland, hes going to feature one of my games in it, and im going to try to get Portal Defenders mentioned too seeing as I love it and its Newgrounds related!

Also Tom did you get my email?

Nice, I was actually chosen to be on the voting panel for March! Thank you, I do believe that this is the first time I've been able to vote.

Also, I look forward to coming to Wizard Con in Philadelphia to meet up with everyone in June. I'll try my best to be there, I seem to miss every Newgrounds-attended event.

I'd love to hear from you. :3 | E-Mail: evansweeney@gmx.com | AIM: EvantheDeku

Portal defender may be one of the better games ever submitted to NG, but what really got me hooked this month (that i voted as #1, sry Luis and BoM, you guys are my #2 :p ) was bunny-invasion 2, god DAMN that game was addictive!

normally i dont play games on NG, more of a movie.watcher, but DAMN that game is fucking great!

though PD must be one of the slicker, and smoother games on here, the addictiveness swayed my choise.

The medals are really cool. They look more impressive (graphic wise) than I've seen on other sites.

I hope you have more plans on what to do with the medals earned :)

Man, your parents must be leanient to let you go to Amsterdam with a bunch of internet people.

And yeah, cool, I can vote. Are you ever gonna make it so you can vote on 5 games and 5 movies, not just a top 10 movies and games (if you get what I mean...?)

So is there gonna be a section for people to learn about how to incorporate medals into our stuff, or is this one of those 'you have to ask very nicely' deals?
Also, voting on an Ipod Touch is tricky, what with it zooming in everytime I make a choice.
