I actually bet money on Holland/Netherlands... Russians appear to continue being my enemy despite the newfound peace I reported a couple of posts earlier.

I too did bet on them, as the winners of it all, but since that odds was so high I only bet a few dollars and I don't really care about the loss of those money (I do care a bit more about the money that I could've won, but meh :P )

How do you know this? or...how do you figure it out I mean.

Write an email or a PM to Tom about the low payback on CPM ads and see what he says. Maybe you can encourage him to tell CPM star to raise the rates so that everyone doesn't switch over to mochi.

Basically, you just use getTimer and then a for loop.

var timer:int = getTimer();
for (var i:int = 0; i < 1000000; i += 1) something to test;
trace( getTimer() - timer );

Those particular numbers thoguh are from this thread.

Hmm.. Don't you know Tom pretty well, I guess it's much easier to get a reply if you do? ;)

Well 3-1 to Russia and it easily could have been 6-1...

Cool, some of that is very interesting, and I feel like it will make my stuff less susceptible to laggg.

All bases belongs to the US?

Oh gawd, is this intentional?

I just saw this in the All your base r belong 2 us collection. It almost looks like all bases belongs to USA and not 'us'. Weird, huh? Or is it Tom Fulp's evil doing?

*pant pant*

Oh dear, we've already forgot about Euro 2008 in this thread. Noone is interested anymore.

Well done. I was supporting Holland though so a bit of a shame they are out. I have only watched one or two matches the whole tournament though. Wish Engl-er-land were in. Oh well.

Well done :)

I'm tired of people talking about nationalities/football, surely there is another topic.

Ya, football's had enough time in the spotlight.

So...anyone else here like soccer?

Fuck Russia. How can you not like that Orange?

I am sad.

I am drowning myself in beer. My bladder disagrees.

I admit we played like shit. No more football topics from me...

Football

Well, here's an interesting question for you.

'What do you think of foreign players in English football?'

I have my opinions on it. If you're not English, how do you feel about foriengers coming into your countries league, or how do you feel about what you see coming from England, Spain, Italy, France etc..?

I made a short vox-pop documentary on this question, look here:

I'm using my 3,000th post to bump this up from the bottom of the first page ;)

RE: Futbol

Seriously, like I said before USA isn't good at it. So lets talk about something else

OMFG.

K I'm never talking sports in my life. It just took 7 hours after the game for the people in my community to shut the hell up. Man. If I hear one more car horn honked in the wrong rhythm I will go mad!

He's actually really cool about responding to stuff people send him, and you should take the initiative yourself since you seem passionate about it, I'm just grateful that games have a recurring source of revenue that helps support NG at the same time.

Yeah I agree, actually things regarding advertising is the PM's that tom reads the most

If you ever see banners on the site that are malicious or whatever, send em over to tom its a constant screening process... in regards to the api ads well go ahead and PM him bout that too... my guess is that ng has no control over em, the api is more of a third party than actually making deals with the advertisers. I could be wrong though so no harm in askin. It would be cool for you to report back if tom responds.

what the hell is an m, please use real measurements like teaspoons.

I never actually cared about football. People tried to teach me, my dad even sent me to "lessons" (huge sarcasm there) and I even tried going to watch his matches to start liking it. But years later, all I want to do is code =P

So, two days ago I was REALLY REALLY bored so I made an AS: Topic. Then just today when I went to post it so that it could be added in the next update I realized AS:Main hadn't been updated for two pages. This, with the help of another push of boredom forced me to get and re-organise the formatting for the AS:Main topic so that, if it were ever to get up to a new page again I would have the stuff formatted all out ready to post the update.

Does anybody in here think that it's worth re-updating AS:Main? Anyone have a problem with me doing?

new topic
Well not a lot of people commented on the "Pick of destiny" topic, so i guess you guys don't know tenacious d, so here is Jack Black kick ass at "idol gives back". The bald guy in the crowd that looks like he is about to cry is the guitarist of the band =]

Pirating?

Is it just me or are a lot of people suggesting that other people pirate flash? Like for example there was even a topic about pirating flash. Now when people ask for alternatives theres at least one reply saying "Oh yeah, you can do this and that and this and get it for free."

Do people not read the rules or just ignore them?

well, when these thread come up, it usually tells that were getting a good intake of new members, so it isn't exactly a bad thing, but at the same time most of the new members are 13 year old illiterate emo bastards, on crackcain

No, go for it. AS Main was remade a while back by Denvish though did you know (about 6 months ago I believe) so i'm assuming you saw the newer topic, and that that is the one which hasn't been updated? Go for it, might aswell.

I sometimes ignore them. 'Robin Hood' comes to mind.
