Yes I did update. Very nice. I added my brother twice for just one. I sorta wish I could just add more then one contribution at times without having his icon appear twice. He was sorta upset that he got only voice in stuff he partially wrote and added additional art too. You would think putting him in the credits would be good enough! Sheesh. Not like anyone else helps me with my flash.

I just noticed this update right now, and it's very rad. I've been hoping for Author Titles for a while. Glad it's finally a new feature.


Happy

It's ALWAYS been a business. You think Tom and the staff members are doing this for fun full time? They're not fucking with our capabilities flashing, posting and blogging. Let them make their money to feed themselves.

As far as the title bit goes, it's pretty neat, but it would be nice to select multiple jobs for one person. (For example, for something like Credit Crunch, I'd credit TheWeebl as Writer, Voice and Music.)

Eventually we hope to replace "PM Bob" with store credit, although that still leaves award certificates to deal with... But overall we hope to simplify the process as much as possible because organizing contest winners can be a real mess, especially when people leave out info and need to be hunted down.

I agree about the multiple roles... We originally planned to let you type whatever you want rather than choose from a dropdown, but we wanted to try this way to be more organized and less abused... There will be more tweeking.

These are tags, because a fad can be funny or serious, as can a holiday flash. However, you can tag a flash "christmas" or tag it "numa."

Sorry if it's already been said, but I don't really wanna read through 6 pages right now.

Forcing a minimum profit share sounds a bad idea. Some people may have already agreed on not wanting anything from it and that's their choice. Forcing a minimum just takes away options for flash makers.

I also think it may dis-encourage some people from using music from the audio portal, especially if they are considering using a few tracks. It would be a damn shame if less people used the audio portal.

Also, the minimum profit is so small that it's not going to be solving anything anyway. If someone thinks they deserve a profit but the author isn't giving them any, then they're hardly going to jump for joy at getting 1%.

Other than that, the new improvements are very cool and exciting :D Keep up the excellent work, guys!

Opinion Poll: Should QUIZ games be a sub-category of the puzzle genre? PUZZLE - QUIZ?

I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to make final judgment, but I think we'll have to pull the 1% requirement. I was hoping it would just kinda "work" and everyone would be happy with it, but there are a lot of potential issues with it and ultimately we shouldn't force peoples' hands when it comes ot money. We will, however, have to push and prod people to act responsibly with how they distribute earnings.

I think it should, quizzes are basically making you use your brain just like puzzles.

The Revenue split is kinda frustrating if you don't plan on receiving money or someone doesn't wish to take an earning. Giving 0% should be an option and if you choose 0% after someone told you they wanted part of the cheese then you can just be called a douche and move on. If it's a serious project and someone heavily participated than it's more than likely they will get a cut, no matter what size.

Also loving the updates, the icons and tags for all this are amazing.

This is AWESOME! You even have an option for Voice, which should persuade authors to include their VAs a lot more often in productions, and so much more. Well done!

very nice, i was wondering if newgrounds would do something like this

must have taken u guys ages to do, i would have offered to help but i dont know nearly enough about web authoring [yet >=) ]

but here's an idea for an Author-Defined Genre

Sprite Work
or even just
Sprite Maker

well, just an idea ;-)
[idk if anybody else has offered that idea already, i'm too lazy to go through over 170 posts XD]
