He wouldn't accept, gajillion isn't a real number.

Silly google :P

Tom wouldn't do it, because, unlike the rest of the entire internet, Tom isn't doing this for the money, he's doing it for the people of the world.

Well I would be happy for tom fulp because he would be rich and then he can do what 6ever he likes but google would probly keep wade and that so basiclly newgrounds would stay the same but with loads of google ads.

the only reason they might buy this place is for the add space
the only thing they might chag is the adds and they might fix our search engine

The thing i like most about newgrounds is that it all started off as 1 ( or 2?) people making a site to showcase some work, and it soon evolved into the biggest and best flash portal for every one to share there work. If newgrounds was not owned by Mr fulp, I would not come here any more as it would have lost its magic and I dont support large companies that go around buying every thing profitable.

What if another unreasonable or unfeasible hypothetical event occurred to Newgrounds posed in the form of a topic where we all hypothesize how Tom Fulp (someone that none of us are) would handle the situation?

I completely agree. I'd stop coming completely, it just wouldn't be the same. That should never ever happen.

Flash would be taken down due to copyright issues, and the site would go to hell.

The only way Tom will ever sell Newgrounds is if someone offers him some magic beans for the site.

The tank logo would look like a more realistic tank and somewhere on it will have the initials NG in an ugly looking font, we'd be able to submit stuff we didn't make but flashes could get deleted because of copyrighted music. We could change our userpage styles, but they can only be PG-13 or lower, Newgrounds' slogan would be changed to "All awesomeness, all the time." despite the lack of awesomeness and all racist words would be censored, and not just the n word. They'll eventually remove the aud and art portal and make just one big one called "The Portal" and the blam/save will be even more loose where something will be under judgment for an hour and if it passes, it can only get deleted by the author or if a mod sees fit. The chat and medal system would be finished but you need to have your account for at least a year to use them. Also the forum would get removed.

It would be white themed instead of black.
