An admin must approve the updated SWF, he may have reloaded it, but an admin did not get around to approve it yet.

Uhm, we all know that. And have stated it before in the past two pages, even with other games since this thread started. Over and over again.

Now Now Krev,
We shouldn't slight Techno for re-re-re-re-re-re-re-stating the obvious, we should slight JP for needing it re-stated, or for mis-understanding the advice about waiting for it to say 1.2
Though in JP's defense the author should have waited until 1.2 was approved before telling us the medals were working.

Fuck off.

I was telling everyone because people are still bitching "DURR IT SAYS 1.1 WHY DOES IT SAY THAT EVEN THOUGH THE AUTHOR SAYS HE FIXED AND UPLOADED?"

Maybe if people weren't so stupid, they wouldn't need restating.

I tried twice to re-achieve that damn Hero medal and I didn't get it. So I went here to ask, and I see you guys talking about the 1.2 thing. I should of known. *sigh* I feel so stupid now. I usually notice when there's a change in the number.

I can confirm this. I have also gotten the medal just now. I only died 1 time before i got it too :)

You get the medal around the part right when the statue shows up, you also no longer need to press space to continue at that part where it freezes because it doesn't freeze any more.

Now everyone can be happy and move on to the next game.

Sorry about the double post but l found a vry useful glitch on the fish game...
When you are against the boss and he shoots his fireballs/fire/random objects at you, you can pause the game and they will keep moving without harming you...you can do this is you think that you won't be able to dodge what's coming towards you...pretty damn useful.

If you don't land a hit, let him shoot the balls. THEN press pause! The fireballs keep moving! This works when you're having trouble with the falling fireballs and falling objects in his second form as well, but this does NOT work with his flamethrower breath. So . . . yeah . .

He got very upset when no-one commented on his discovery. A nice find to both of you, but pinoyisazn beat you to the cake, HeavyTank!

So, as a genuine question and to buff up my post with unquoted text so I don't have to start italicizing everything which gets annoying, can anyone guess what the new game to be unveiled on Wednesday is? I think I recognise the art style, but I can't be sure.

Doomsday-One, working on stuff better than preloaders.

By the way, I made the 'Create an Animated Sprite' preloader for Sprite TV 3!

Whatever, at least it helped me beat the boss and get all the medals :D

You got other shit to do? Fine I understand leaving it for a couple days. BUT NOT 3 FUCKING WEEKS.

I do believe Poozy's link was for this post he made.

The kid is bitching about how the admins are "shit" and need to get their priorities set because he thinks the world revolves around him. He also doesn't know the process in which medals are fixed which requires the author's cooperation and an admin's.

gay NG chat that nobody wants anyways.

Maybe people feel the same way about the medal system?

But yeah, the purchases show he never supported Newgrounds with 1 penny, so he has no right to bitch about a site he goes on for free.

I was under the impression that NG made most of it's money off ads and hardly anything from the store.

Nah, newgrounds makes quite a bit of money off the store.

Think about it, would it be better clicking a 5 cent ad, or how about buying a $20 shirt?

Well, if, for example, you couldn't vote on flashes, or review, for any reason (except bans of course), wouldn't you complain?The fact that the site is free doesn't mean that everybody needs to stfu if they have a problem...
Of course in this case it's not really that much of a problem, so yeah....

True enough, but apart from the fact that the stuff sold here is a bit overpriced, it's also not convenient at all for those who don't live in the US because shipping will cost as much as the product itself :(

Some people don't really have money to give away though :|

Actually, I think nobody has the right to bitch around, unless they work for Newgrounds...

Just my opinion though.

I do like the fancy "Gear" button you get when you order stuff, though.

Does anyone get reminded of Donkey Kong (Two, was it?) for the SNES due to all the underwater parts on Glass Fish?

Also, I really enjoyed the music, reminded me of SHE, Colonopenbracket [ :( ], and Sabrepulse, to name a few. Good bands.. Chiptunes, hooray.

Anyone know if there's a high score list for Toss the Turtle kicking around? Reached a distance of 4,869,519.2 feet last night.

Don't know if there is or not, but there is a glitch that allows you to bounce almost infinitely so who knows.

I would never be able to get 10,000 miles on that game. Especially since the medal is for 10,000 feet and 10,000 miles would be 52,800 feet. :P That medal would basically be impossible to get man.

Unless my calculations are off, that would actually be ten miles. So 10,000 would be 52,800,000 feet. And anyone trying to get it would die of starvation. And rightfully so.

Deploy the... it's a yellow button... it's usually flashing... it makes the engines go... whoosh!

Yeah, for some reason I see I only multiplied by 100 for some odd reason. I guess I was so into the Eagles/Raiders game that I wasn't paying that much attention to what I was doing here. Oh well, the point wasn't to get the right calculations, but to just show that nobody would ever get it.

Yo,

If you're a medal addict like me and you are having the same problem I was (medals not showing up) try using "Safari" as your web browser. Just download it from Apple.com.

It's real simple to use, heck, easier than IE and Firefox once you get to know it.
