Don't forget to animate a dying clown by this Friday at noon EST.

Up next: Best of August! Madness Day is September 22nd.

[RicePirate]

No more broadcasts for a while?

[Fooliolo]

I saw most of those movies, and they were a real treat for something animated in such a short time! Congrats are in order!

[Starogre]

way to go dave! all your animations are great!

i hope for the next tofa competition, the animators are seeded such that the best ones don't get pitted against eachother in the earliest rounds. i'd love to see more animation come out of a couple of the contestants that lost early on.

[Idocreating]

Congrats Dayve. Some good entries there!

[MisterTig]

Congratulations, Dave.

[Magical-Zorse]

He seems pretty legit.

[jonathanfis]

I know when the redesign's coming send me a pm if u want to know :)

[LewToons]

yaaaa - - gratz dave, he deserved it! - - to put together that many quality animations over that period of time is unbelievable!

[Oakwood]

Can we expect a Madness Flash by you, Tom?

[BioMadness]

man, I have ideas but I need help transferring them to paper. Is there anyone who could help me for the symphonic TD? But, anyway, congrats to Dave

[ForNoReason]

Grats Dave!

Hi Tom

[Soapbubble]

So many great flashes. Grats to the winner, deserved it completely.

[Michaely385]

DaveBruno is the winner of the TOFA contest which i never heard but now that i heard about the latest Newgrounds Site News.

This is pretty awesome.

[Pegosho]

Congratz to Dave! I really liked all his entries but The Shape of Love blew me away, definitely his best.

[SpikeVallentine]

The Shape of love was ...it was awesome! Super charming.

It also made me smile in the end! I love it!

Thank you TOFA for the opportunity to motivate!

Good job Dave Bruno!

We already know no one ever pays you any attention or sends you a PM. You don't need to go trolling for people to send you a message. It's pretty pathetic.

I remember watching The Shape of Love when it first entered the portal and thinking about how great it was. I actually didn't even notice that it was in a tournament. I haven't seen every entry for TOFA 2011 but I'm sure it'd be really tough for anyone to beat The Shape of Love. It was truly a great flash movie. :3
Congrats to Dave Bruno. I hope he continues to submit more things to Newgrounds.

Yeah I've been bummed about jagondudo's early departure - I think he would have been a really strong contender throughout.

We're expecting big things for next year, with more publicity and a new name, since that other site decided to keep using the name TOFA even though NitWitt created it and chose to bring it over to NG.

I put up "Flash of the Titans" on Nitwitt's name change nominees and it seemed pretty popular.

Tom, when do we get the Madness Day 2011 button?
