Monthly Vote / Downtime

[liljim]

For those of you who're eligible to vote on this month's submissions in the Monthly Contest (you'll know if you are - just sign into your Grounds Gold account and if you are eligible and haven't already voted, you'll see a link down towards the bottom), go ahead and review the submissions there. We've had a ton of great submissions over the past month, so check everything out in detail - there's no rush and there's plenty of great stuff to choose from!

For another chance of winning something this month, make sure that you keep depositing your experience regularly - you might be randomly selected as a $100 winner. Also, be sure and check out Tom's other current contest post!

On an unrelated note, I plan on having Tim down the site for about 5-10 minutes around Wednesday or Thursday next week, so that I can implement some changes to the database configuration (amongst other things) - so if you can't access the site in a day or two, just give it a few moments before trying again. Tim or I may make an announcement as to when this will happen, precisely - if we don't, apologies in advance.

[GiantDouche]

Where do you get all the money for this?!?! Wade should have a better job than being shoved in the basement forced to make stickers

[RedCircle]

Cool. Good luck, and VOTE PEOPLE!

[JackRabbitStudios]

Yeah, it was real hard to actually pick the ten best flashes from this group, all of them were pretty good.

Voting usually ends after a week, right? I haven't seen many of the nominees, and I'd like to watch before I vote.

I wouldn't get too excited - it's probably stuff you won't even notice.

[Gagne-1]

Wow, I never thought I would be able to vote... It feels great!

Yeah - it'll finish after 6 or 7 days from now. Take your time. There's no benefit to voting, (other than to the authors and their submissions) that you're voting for, so make sure you make the right choices. :)

[Brutehead]

too bad i can't vote :(

[ArabFreak]

I've already voted when I signed in...hope those changes go ok.

I agree. It was hard to pick my top ten! It was amazing to see all of the absolutely wonderful work coming in to Newgrounds lately. There are some people out there with amazing talent.

[PureLionHeart]

Cool. Implementation with little downtime.

As for me, before I vote, I've got a lot to watch, since I've missed so many. When does the voting end again?

[josh-tamugaia]

Eligible to vote 3 times already.
Won once.
Don't think I'm gonna win this time but at least I can vote!

Stupid me not reading first. Oh well, that's plenty of time for me to view 'em all.

Damn it I just sent my modding back a few weeks with this mess-up. :'-(

[boloneyman]

I hope I'm not awake during the down time. There were some great entries this month, I had toruble picking out the best ten.

[Rabid-Echidna]

I'm going to be deeply disappointed if this doesn't win.

Yeah that was a good movie filled with great artwork. Kind of weird though.
Voted and accounted for.

[Sk8erGirl14]

If the submission gets to the frontpage, it's eligible, regardless of whether or not it's won any awards.

[AnzRage]

5-10 minutes it's a no biggie. I can handle that. Vote for Little Fighter Alpha Chapter 8! :)

[DaRk]
