Two Questions

[Frenzy]

I have two questions:

1) If a movie wins an award (i.e. Turd Of The Week) then do the co-authors get the award too or just the main author?

and...

2) Was the score to be blammed raised or something? A movie I saw was just blammed at 1.70.

Thanks in advance!

Armor Games has plenty of trophies, so I guess the answer is yes

If it was, then w00t! Although I think it's probably down to a flash that passed Judgement and was then deleted byt he author's decision.

Yes, all co-authors get credit.

and...

It could've been deleted or this.

Thanks in advance!

Could also be due to the number of co-authors -- the more people are co-authored on a flash, the higher the blam threshold. I'm not entirely sure what the increment is on that, though.

There's a perfectly good reason for me forgetting that - I've never really been one for submitting flash, so the rules and regs have never really been looked over on that sort of thing :P

I just found out about this co-authors-cause-the-final-UJ-score-mark to rise thing a few days ago. Tom Fulp announced it in late 2007, but for some reason he did it in a topic on General instead of a frontpage post where we'd all have found out about it. Some theorise it was "snuck into effect" for whatever reason.

So I don't think it's so much that you forgot about it, I think it's that you never learned about the rule change, as was definitely the case with me. November 2007 I think the thread was made. I posted in there to ask why the hell it wasn't a news post in an idle fashion, here's the link:
