Well, there is a contest that is being held untill the end of the week if that helps you out.
Or you can post blogs on the BBS in you want.

If you need any help or have any questions, contact your dept. head.
Or me, I like helping people out :P

BBbuuutttt whats the crew been up to lately?

From what I can see we are really just trying to boost some user activity here and that is why APF is hosting this contest with real prizes involved. It seems like everyone that is here daily is involved though. I don't think that we got any of the inactive members active by this contest. Maybe the next contest that goes out we can go ahead and send PM's to all the meembers that don't swing in here and post ever.

The person you replied to was one of them. I succeeded in getting one member to post again. HoboPorn and Sirtom, if you would like to join the contest then I suggest letting me know before 11:59 p.m. NG Time tonight.

I cant wait for the results so its run for 6 days. I need to check online its about 5am uk time, so its confusing to remember the time.

Why wouldn't he?

If it's a post, it counts as a post.

As long as it's in the BBS, it's a post.

General would be your best bet.

Alot to talk about.

Just make sure you be responsible because you're representing the NGDD.

I guess, but you see where I could get a little bewildered.
Afterall, it is a little unorthodox to have crew posts count.

If it's a post, it counts as a post.

Clubs&crews are like a different form of the bbs so it's a tough call.
It seems t

As long as it's in the BBS, it's a post.

It counts as a post no matter what in your stats, but this contest, I don't know,
It just defies this kind of logic.

General would be your best bet.

true that, I'll give it a try.

Thanks for the opinions.

Alot to talk about.

And a lot to understand :)

Just make sure you be responsible because you're representing the NGDD.

And so are you :P

I forgot to respond before Supra, but it's counted for any post anywhere. You could even respond to the P-bots posts and I wouldn't care. I have a lot of people's points to count each night so I don't really want to be going through serious technicalities unless I really have to.

The competition begins from this post forward. Good luck to you all!

General would absolutely be the best bet for posts but I think that flash reviews will be hands down the easiest way to gain points. If you write a decent review you will almost always break thirteen lines. It is a quick seven points everytime you sit down and take a minute to write a solid review.

Hey guys, since you want to do good reviews, I'm looking for constructive criticism on Smoke on the Water (Demo)... so, go ahead!

Damn even on the first day of an exciting contest no one wants to take the opportunity to get some points by posting in the NGDD thread. I might have to make a rule next contest giving points to those who post in the NGDD lol.

Good luck in the contest everyone, whatever it may be about. I have nothing more to add.

Im posting now this competion sounds exellant, i just written an audio reviews its quite long for review request club. I was looking at writing long review with 25 lines i do write quite long reviews although they do seem jumbled up at times. I only wrote the review after the competion has started , your reviews are exellant. I think you obviously have more experience, then i do with writing reviews. I was going to write but by the time ,it started it was 5am UK time and i was really tried as i had got up earlier then i usually do. I nocticed not many people many not posted im really interested in this competion ,but i guess one person posting not much help to you. I always post more in the evenings, and later at night i dont tend to post during the day so thats why im quiet.

Haha well it's a good one Phantom, I'm getting used to keeping score of the contests, which is tough, but it'll be a good summer of contests. Lots of prizes and chances for everyone to level up. We could always use you back again you know, lol. Anytime you want to return you're welcome to.

And congrats on your level up!

I'm actually trying to get points with reviews more than posts... I have to admit, I'm feeling the hype over this contest. Not very often I feel the hype for something NG related.

Could've been worst, you should've seen the Mets at the 1973 World Series, they stranded 72 men on base. The win could've been theirs had they cashed in on those opportunities, it's over 10 blown scoring opportunities per game since the series went to all seven games due to pitching which happens to be the reason why they have made it that far in the first place. Come to think of it, the Mets even led the series 3-2 prior to the last two games and we all know what happened judging by the series results.

Here's what happened

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_World_
Series

They nearly had it.

I might have to make a rule next contest giving points to those who post in the NGDD lol.

Which should include penalties involving water-torture, beaten with a bag of durians, tazing, bad music, firing squad, electric chair, hanging, beaten with a pipe, rock crushing, bone crushing, blindness, and every kinds of painful methods.

Participations are important or the club will go down faster than LastSpartan's credibility concerning history and politics.

That's it for now.

Reporting a stolen flash http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/44 2447 i think this is stolen from www.albinoblacksheep.com.You can see the address in the flash, also check out his other submissson i think thats stolen too.

Haha I should have posting contests more often. The quality of long posts in here since the contest has started are much better. Starting to look like the EGB in here a little bit. I'm going to post the update to the contest around 10 or 11 tonight. Whenever I finish playing WoW, hahahahah, I love that game.

My level 21 Undead Warlock is so sweet. I suck at the game, but it's fun at hell.

I reviewed it, kinda overdid it.

Phantomlassuk, you seem to post many stolen movies or what you think is stolen without providing the original link... I don't flag most of the movies you say are stolen because of lack of evidence so please have some solid proof like the real link to the actual movie. Cheers. ;)

So I've been reviewing mainly audio for the contest... one review I clicked "submit review" before I was finished lol... I actually PMed the author with the rest of my review. Lame, hey?

I don't know but the last contest said that the reviews of any blammed flash movies or games will not count towards the contest. This rule was placed because there are alot more horrible flashes than there are good ones, but I'm not sure you're going to have to take it up with AnalPenguinFarming as soon as he's done raiding lol.

Im really sorry i did not think i had lack of proof, i saw his comments and the flash this albinoblacksheep. I guess i got it wrong ,i thoughtt that was proof enough. I remember another mod Malachy ,said that if a user says the movie is stolen in thier comments ,they may be mucking about and not serious. Im sorry for posting links with out enough evidence, I do look for links, but in these cases i did not think i needed more proof.

Well, just because it has the logo of "albinoblacksheep" in a flash movie here on NG doesn't mean its stolen. If I wanted to submit on other sites and I wanted to use the NG preloader, I'd submit it to all sites with that preloader. Albuquerque had the ABS logo in it because it was sponsored by it. And in comments, its true that they are probably joking because nobody dobs themselves in like that... well, hardly anybody. ;)

I have a question if our review is helpful, but short would you still give points to us like 1 or 2 points based on how helpful it is? Also for posting in the forums do they have to be good posts? Not like spam but like posting something in some stupid post in the general forum. Also are you going to give different points based on which forum you go to because anyone could post in the general forum but what about the Flash or politics?

I'm sticking to my system of grading reviews based on the points I posted. I can't take the time to read the review thoroughly and decide whether or not it's more helpful that then next. For all 11 people in the contest I have to calculate points every night, and that sucks pretty hard.

Yes, they have to be somewhat intelligent posts. If you want to earn some points I suggest you make the posts count for something more than just one point. Reviewing is your best bet to earn points though.

I'm trying to figure out a good way to calculate the points while being able to remember what I calculated the previous night. I can't think of a way to I guess "save" my place. Semi-retarded I guess. I'll figure it out for my next post though.

Wow it pretty much took me an hour to do this list and I'm exhausted from my work day. Hopefully you guys don't mind, but I don't know if I could do this every single day. It takes a lot out of me to read all of your reviews. If you all REALLY want me to do it every day I'll try, but I'm thinking like, one list now, one Thursday, and then one on the final day. This is a lot of work with 11 people on the list. Let me know what you all think. Good luck.
