I've not exacty graduated but i'm past the boring bit, lol, options next year : )

Sorry about my comment about that contest macbook thing earlier.

I sorta have a beef with contests in general. The only people the contest benefits is the person running it, and the person who wins. However, when you have so many people entering, and spending their time doing work for a contest in which they aren't guaranteed to get paid for there work, but the person running the contest is guaranteed to benefit off your work, it's just a complete scam.

But still, people tend to get addicted to contests, because sometimes the prizes are more than you could expect to earn by doing that work on your own (for flash game/movie contests at least), so you end up putting a lot of work into an entry, only to get beat by someone who put in more work. I enjoyed the contests while they lasted, however, looking back on retrospect I could have made a lot more money by getting sponsorships on them.

So even so, the work that someone would have to put into a web site or system to win that macbook is worth a lot more than the macbook itself. I checked that site, there's a ton of contests on there, and all of them have a ton of entries. I don't know what the requirements are for winning that macbook, if it's just a random sweepstakes of winners of the other contests or a contest of who has the best overall work, but still. For $200 people are getting web pages made for themselves from a variety of people, and they only pay the best one. So all the people that put time and effort into making a great webpage get screwed out of that time, the person that wins gets a small sum of money (they could have made more if they didn't work through contests), and the person running it gets a large variety of quality websites to hand pick his favorite from.

At least that's my recent opinion on contests. And probably the reason why I got bitter over them offering the cheap macbook as the prize.

i absolutely agree. i never do contests because at least with regular sponsorship your guaranteed some money if they offered it.

And on an unrelated note, there's this girl at my school who got dubbed the nickname "poop girl" because of something she did in private with some guy (I'll leave that up to your imagination) and the guy started telling people about it. He's referred to as "poop boy".

I don't know the girl or anything, but I feel sorry for anyone who graduates high school with the nickname "poop girl". Apparently they started chanting "poop girl, poop girl" in the cafeteria today (I don't eat in the cafeteria, NHS room FTW). Makes me sick.

And to make things worse, the month before this thing started spreading around, our school printed on the back of the school newspaper an column where they ask students questions and get answers. The question this month was "What do you miss most about your childhood?" That girl's answer was "My innocence".

High school kids suck.

Wait, you're big as hell! You don't even have to dodge punches! Wouldn't they just bounce off?

I bet when you're animating you pretend all the bad guys are people you knew in highschool, don't you?

High school was fun while it lasted, but I am glad to be finished it. Ya there was some fun times, but it is way better in college and stuff. Now that I am done that too its not all that much fun anymore.

End of school = Start of Masturbation topics

RE: Highschool

Jeez, I forgot how young 13 actually was...I assumed most people here were at LEAST in Highschool...I guess not.

So, I'm going to be 20 this year, and scares the shit out of me. I don't feel 19 at all, let alone 20. I don't feel any older than I did when I was 14-15. I don't know if I like it so much.

I'll be grading in a few weeks then off to the School Victoria for my introduction to digital animation course, then after that it's to the School Victoria again for an advance digital animation course. Totally just roughly over $12,899.99. :3

Fav NG Characters
Alloy - all the way! I love that lil' dude.
And the dog from Kermit Kombat. <3

You already have that retarded "my genitals" collab, go prance in that, or better yet, make a part! I'm sure everyone would 5 your genitals.

Too late now.

So I'm joining the Marijuana Party of Canada. ^^

Who honestly DIDN'T expect this? C'mon confess. >:3

Yeah, our school's not really like that. There aren't too many bullies and a lot of people there are pretty fun-loving. Theres sometimes fights though, but mainly just with big jocks who piss each other off for little or no good reason.

High school kids suck.

I used to get my ass kicked in middle school, but oddly enough when I got to high school nobody seemed to care about groups anymore, I was just known in a more positive manor as being that dumb kid who does retarded, yet incredibly funny stunts at any given moment. Educationally, high school blew, I learned more in life being off on my own with roommates in Idaho for 9 months then I did through 4 years of high school ( I was born and lived/live in Vermont now). Overall, I loved high school because it's so hard to get a decent social gathering together with ALL your friends when your not in school anymore, it just doesn't really happen that often, if ever.

Mods posting
Hey, everyone is saying when someone becomes a forum mod they start posting more. Like with Swain and someone said Luis didn't post that much before he became a mod.

But, I think for some it's the opposite. Anyone noticed how little both jmtb02 and KaynSlamdyke post sicne they became mods?

How can the General Forum actually let someone down?

I've just had GTA and a billion Warhammer figures distracting me. I've also had to start hanging out around General more.

I'm still keeping my post average though. I just find there's little to say at the moment.

my favourite online character

http://samandfuzzy.com/

I also like the soft-spoken tree thing in Bitey of Brackenwood and the spidery floaty things in Prowlies at the river.
I generally love Adam Phillips' incidental creatures.

RE: favorite online character

My favorite character is probably nene (i know, im shocked too) I can just identify with that character so well, i have vivid memories of this crazy psychotic korean ex-girlfriend of mine.. she was like all sweet and shit until she became a stalker and would wait for me at my door when i came home from school. Then when i started to avoid her she said she would key up my car or some crazy bullshit.

Nene always embodied that for me, shes like this psychotic asian chick who is kind of mysterious. Pico wants her pussy but shes fucking creepy as fuck.

Runner up would be johnny rocketfingers. I hate the animator who created him but the character itself has a refreshing attitude and i never thought a stickman could feel 'cool' until i saw him. Like he doesnt need all this bruce lee stickfigure-meets-matrix bullshit.. hes just chill and wants a beer and bitches like any regular guy.

Honestly I have been posting less because this thread has been sliding downhill for the past few months, and as appealing as it may be to jump on NG-Unit for posting too much or for someone's work being lame or whatever... I won't get into that. People have been in a bad mood and if you know me at all my mood rarely falls below more than happy. If people want to have a conversation about their favorite comic book heroes or their idiosyncrasies that's fine but if I wanted a General forum I would go there. The reason the Flash forum is so appealing is because everyone here is multitalented, willing to share their abilities, and are intelligent enough not to derail every conversation by picking a fight. But recent conversations have completely gone against that.

And Kayn become a mod like two days ago, it's too early to judge him.
