Once again the main top 5 winners are nothing but hyped up artists that have been here for years. Lets see some underground artists get some spot light love. But I loved Facebook Twitter, but yet again; competing against Utah is like competing another God's massive football field-long dick.

What I like to do with the majority of my time is: Shredding, Sketching, Sleeping. Thread for Rigz. Thread for Shredz.

Although I expected it entirely, I am still pissed off that Mastermind 4 got first. What REALLY stings me is that The Ballad of CrippleKane got beat out of the top 5. I'm also not too happy about Facebook Twitter beating CrippleKane, either.

I don't understand why Mastermind gets so much fucking credit. I just don't understand. It's just not NEARLY funny enough to justify that kind of score and following.

Just let me compare CrippleKane with Mastermind here:

Mastermind consists mostly of good drawings that are heavily stylized, but it's almost all just mouths moving when it comes to animation. It's virtually all lip syncing. This latest one barely even had multiple backgrounds. Then there's the dialogue. I just honestly don't find it funny. I might smirk now and then, but honestly, a lot of things can make me smirk. It doesn't take much. The flash is entirely dialogue driven, but the dialogue that makes up the flash is just one or two gags that drag on for way too long.

CrippleKane is also heavily stylized, but in a different way. It also shows off some very impressive animation and backgrounds. The animation is just top notch stuff. IT fits the music perfectly, and is just an overall sweet fucking piece of flash. Well conceived and thought out, it's the kind of thing you'd show a friend to impress them with how good some people can use flash.

And, of course, Mastermind beats out CrippleKane. CrippleKane didn't even fucking make top 5. That's fucking disgraceful. Shame on you all.

What I meant was that it was beaten from the monthly nomination by a glitchy fan game. That's what pisses me off. Well, maybe it'll get staff inclusion.

But once again, this outcome was terrible. Two of the submissions probably only made it because they contained yuri and hentai that drew in all of the horny 13 year olds. After that, it's all sequels. Really Newgrounds?

:P

To be honest, I found the Jinx Hentai Parody to be funnier than Mastermind and Facebook Twitter, not to mention better animated.

The hentai parody, while sort of shallow and definitely catering to the sex-starved demographic of the internet (which is never in short supply), was actually a good flash, hentai aside. Think about it. The animation is very well done. It almost looks like it's straight from the TV show. The sound editing was superb as well, and added a humorous aspect to the flash. He went through and took actual audio from the series and made it fit perfectly with the sex scenes.

The combination of laughs I got out of the edited voices and the impressive animation honestly make it a better flash than Mastermind 4 and Facebook Twitter, in my opinion. Honestly, the only bad things you can say about the hentai flash was that it used sex to gain popularity and that it's only a parody, but honestly, the amount of work that went into it makes up for it in my opinion.

I really hate to admit it, but the Jinx Hentai Parody really is actually good, even if a lot of people only like it for the sex.

Well, the movie in 1st does get nominated for Best Movie of the Year. That would seem logical as to why people are debating this.

Doesn't matter.

During the next tank awards, Jinx Hentai Parody will be a 'staff inclusion', and then win :P
