This is gonna be good for artists, 400 votes is abit low though maybe 1000 and below might be better...

~X~

Hey Tom, you know the new website design your making, is it going to be an old type 800 px in width or 1024, I really want 1024 or 100%, your site is tiny on my screen!

If any entry is taken off the site for whatever reason, it will show up as blammed. That's just the way it is. If you asked me to remove your entry, and I did, it would have said it was blammed. You basically blammed your own work. Think of it that way.

"I don't want my entries on Newgrounds.com anymore! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!"

It still says it was "blammed by our users" with a beat up guy giving the finger so I dont know if its really the same thing there Wade me boy.

Isn't you BA updated daily? A score changes a lot so if it would change every time a score changes it would mean a lot of CPU power and stuff.

hmm. good point. I will wait until tommorow then.

this is the end of the newgrounds day and my batting average still has not changed.

Thank you Tom. For all your good work, Im going to make a cartoon about you.

the whole 400 votes thing is flawed because i know a TON of artists who have submitted a flash and had it passed with a great score, but afterwards for months what seems to be a group has been voting zero on them EVERY DAY. This eventually adds up to hundreds of votes and a huge decrease in score. Those people's flashes weren't too popular they just got downvoted consistently, shouldnt they be allowed to delete these flashes on their own and stop the unbelievably gay downvoters in their tracks?

regardless of what DICF00D speaks, because i know it happens to 3 of my movies, i could never delete anything i've submitted!

Wade made a topic saying post your flash here if youw ant them deleted change the name to deletemf06 or what every, adn there was this topic and i changed the names of my flash to the thing and whatever:P and i think its been a year and wade never deleted thoose flash

TOM. TOM. TOM. TOM. Also WADE.

There's one major flaw with the whole 'seeing how an artist progressed with time' idea. Some artists have over 20 submissions, and they're *sorted alphabetically* instead of by date. If someone is unfamiliar with an artist's work, it can be annoying to find something good or recent with the 'other submissions' drop-down menu. Ideally the drop-down list would be sorted by date *and* potentially include the rating.

Also, I agree that older flash shouldn't be deleted simply because of its crappiness.

Yeah, I asked that.

thats cool

For example, your batting average may soon be based on your top four submissions, so you could have 100 crappy submissions and still have a good batting average if you have made four really good ones.

I would really like that. Instead of worrying about having my BA lowered and lowered down below B+ and the BA was based on my top 4 submissions, I wouldn't need to worry about having a C+ BA or lower. :)

BTW, with the new system of deleting your own portal entries, it will be easier to lose reviews. I was just wondering if there would be a change with the review system (like reviews for movies that get deleted, the reviews will still be on the user's reviews). Just any changes with the review system there will be I am wondering what will happen.

yes, Great! thx

This really needs to be done. It shouldnt be too hard to do if youve managed to do it for the Flash submittions. It would really clean up some space and give artists a sense of relief from those crappy entries theyve been trying to have removed for months.

GREAT idea

Good work, I don't think 400 is too low, is so many people want it higher then maybe like 450, 500?

1) They have less than 400 votes.
2) They haven't won any awards.
3) They haven't been featured in any collections or the front page.

Just wonder how this affects under judgement flash, since they're <400 votes. Still, it's a good idea.

I agree with this. The sorting should be done by date, or better yet there could be a button that sorts it according to the artists needs.

Nice progress made here, though i wouldn't want to have a mass deletion of authors submissions... Still good work!

VEry nice, i've been waiting for this for a while.

Thanks, Tom. now I can remove the 2 crapola movies that I been waiting for Wade to get to.

That's really good! The problem is the only entry I'd like to remove has 450 votes :'(

Very nice idea. Newgrounds is starting a revolution, from private messaging to this.

About time! I've been moaning about a lack of a 'delete movies' option in the GG for ages now.

well i think it's great that things are now changing. keep it up? congrats.

Very Cool Tom, If we see the movie is going to be bad we can delete it =D
Lol... but is going to be hard win blam points now... ~_~

PD: What about a option for change the movie picture?

Truthfully, i dont know if I like this too much. Yes it would help get rid of some of the crappy submissions that authors have done, but at the same time it just kind of messes everything up. Because now my batting average is 3.59/5.00, and i dont quite understand why. Maybe only the videos that have a 3.50 or higher get put towards it? But i dont know about this, because now i lose some reviews, old school stuff, and just argh i dont know about it.

Well, not sure if anyone noticed, but the BA system is changed. It now goes by your top some odd flashs, I'm not sure how many top ones though... Very cool, I saw my BA went up very high and it blew me away, heh, awesome =)

Neat addition, Tom!

I'm glad you made lots of people jubilant for this feature. :)

I just averaged my highest 3 and got my ba. I think it's based on your top 3 now.

Maybe now I'll have a chance to submit some of the stupid stuff i make when I'm bored but never submit.
