I have literally spent hours, Searching for abusive reviews. At first, I got my Garbage whistle, When I flagged about 5 reviews as "Abusive' when they weren't, They were just not helpful. Ever since, I have flagged at least 20 (I know, Its not extravagant) and haven't gone back to normal. Its a hell of a lot harder to go up than down.

Read "Corky52's Guide to Abusive Reviews".

How ironic.

I've actually marked the last 387/388 reviews correctly ( Yes, I have actually counted ), the thing is that I dug myself into such a big hole when I started marking reviews that I will probably never get out. I do though have about 5 movies I have marked right that just haven't been reviewed yet. When they do you never know, I might have enough.

I'm guessing Marking movies count more than Reviews? And, I have searched the FAQ's, But is there actually a certain Number that shows when your up/downgraded? Or rough estimate people have worked out?

Yes that would be correct.

You need 50 to get to bronze from normal. I got this information from a review mod who had an experiment to see, but once you get into garbage you can keep digging yourself in the hole by getting more wrong. And getting one wrong is a lot worse then getting one right is good.

Also, mark the two that are just quoting an entire song.

He has a couple of others, but I just don't have time to mark them. They are the only reviews I'm going to look for today.

I have considered that, And plan on it once I get over My Lower rankings. But That may take me a while, As coz I'm Australian, I miss peak hour 'Flash Submission' time.

That's not a very good excuse, probie. Many a good Australian has gotten far with his B/P rank. If you're going to try and excuse your laziness, you're going to have to do better than that.

400 posts isn't too bad for 25 days. You never know you might be able to beat my 4,000 posts in half a year.

I don't see that happening in half a year.. Works getting more frequent. But I plan on moving on from that Soon enough. So either I will be less frequent, Or extremely frequent soon.

Well actualy most of the people I have gotten to know of newgrounds are either from Canda or England and a lower ratio are American. But I remeber seeing that Nepal had tons of hits on this site wich is very strange.

According to I site I saw a while ago, the most hits are from Brazil(!?), then the US, then England. Most users are English, though.

Also, what if there was someone who was ineligible for the flash submit, then would they just have a disadvantage?

No can equal the points you would get for a flash pretty easily with good reviews and posts.

Oh I'm sure it's fun and you would all have a blast gathering points. The problem is that I wouldn't have any time at all to calculate the points. I did the whol ebbs and reviews contest and trust me, counting up all of the points was an eye-killer. Besides, for a contest like that I would have to dish out a pretty big prize, and our current winners still haven't recieved theirs yet (which trust me, you should by the end of the summer when I have my biggest paycheck).

Hopefully all of you are doing well, but don't get your hopes up on a MASSIVE contest like that one. It takes time to count the points and keep you all updated...time I honestly don't have. However I will hold another contest this month. Be ready.
