Most people look at that name and think "oh, it's from a legit website". This new AddictingGames account has only 3 flashes all within a few weeks of each other. The website has been around forever, and has plenty of classic NG flashes. But those that were sponsored were released by their respective authors, not by the website.
However...
AddictingGames
Now, either the 1st account got deleted and this was created right after or they had a name change (which I think is less probable, since they have less Flashes this time). Either way, something happened, anyone knows what?
To sum it up: this guy is a fake.
Yeah, I think it's a fake too. What's curious, though, is that its sign-up date was on 9/11.
People try to get all kinds of days on Newgrounds, so that they can spam the portal and get 8950104864102 flashes to pass.
Clock Day leads that rank by far. Now I'm in doubt who comes second: Pico or Madness day. Probably Pico, since it's more popular and it's here for a very long time.
There are very few legit NG holidays, and Tom makes everyone aware of them way in advance.
And we all know the next. =)
Who's going to be around on Madness Day?
Meh, the portal is incredibly unstable right now, and has been for the last couple of months, if not a full year.
I agree. I was planning on do something like a "Portal Survey", but it would take my whole free time. It would be, basically, a survey to see how many Flashes come at certain times of the day. It would be pretty cool.
Only thing I know: at around 3:30 the Portal speeds up. School's out?
The redesign helped draw new members in, but those members came and spammed up the BBS and Portal, and allowed spammers to gain some footholds that should have never been gained.
I'm not saying all new members, but some.
It's one of the things that still bother me a little. Before the redesign, My B/P ratio was very close to 1:1. Now, it's 1,000 points away from each. And I think it'll stay this way. =[

Anyway, I'm sure something will be done about that user at some point, shame if something isn't done by tommorow, they will win turd which will get deleted as in previous weeks.
Hopefully all the bitchiness won't start all over again. =P
OMG WHY WAS TURD DELETED? OMG WADE, WHY??? IT WAS LEGIT!!! OMGOMGOMG...
OMG
