I've never even heard of any of those winners.
My faith in humanity has often taken blows on Newgrounds. But none have ever hit so hard as the popularity of Lucky Day Forever. Which is my least favorite flash on all of Newgrounds. I can't help but look past the animation and the sexual innuendos throughout to the base story of "ugly black people who live in poverty and servitude all dream of being attractive white people who live in opulence." Which I find to be very insulting.
Oops, I didn't see first time reading as I was too excited for who got the Tank Awards but thanks for the shout out Tom! :)
Hey thanks for the shout out Tom, Appreciate it!.
Tom and all Newgrounds are the pest keep goin conquer the skies

Not all of them were ugly, I found the girl who's accused of being a whore sorta attractive.
you're looking at this thing from the wrong angle.
Oh WUUUUUT
Now I feel bad for being so quiet lately. Thanks a lot for the honor, I didnt even know this was a thing.
This has been a good month for annual award closure. And wow, congrats x 5, Deathink! And the other people I guess
I'm very satisfied with the winners this year.

I'm curious as to what you find so insulting about it. If the animation is racist towards anyone it's racist towards white people because it's making them look like elitist overloads who lack compassion towards other races. The animation seems to be from a black perspective seeing as the protagonist is black (supposedly) and you're supposed to identify with him.
But really, I don't think the animation has anything to do with race. It's about the subjugated masses of people who are manipulated into eternally longing for a better life that doesn't exist. Maybe it's a story about "ugly people who live in poverty and servitude all dreaming of being attractive people who live in opulence." But what's so offensive about that?
I need help importing videos to Youtube... I tried importing my most recent one to youtube and its almost like after uploading to youtube the animation is sped up and ends up horrible and choppy! When i preview my animation in flash it looks great and its just the same here on NewGrounds! But for some strange reason when I try to put i on youtube it gets very choppy and speeds up to where its way to fast! Any help with this?

Use Swivel. Also, wrong thread.
Also, congratz to the winners! LDF was my favorite animation, and of course Abobo won.
someday.. I will be the kitty of the year.
hell even a turd of the year would bring glory to me
Congrats to the winners! It feels like it was just yesterday i watched Lucky Day Forever, with its amazingly interesting premise, artstyle, and atmosphere.
And also played the shit out of Abobo's Big Adventure.
Challenging and fun, with old school references, and extremely fun controls :)
I haven't really heard any of Kor-Rune's music before now, til this award popped up. But his guitar solo's are freakin awesome :D
And deathink is just awesome. Enough said :D
Respect and honor to al the victorious winners!!

Really? You find it more insulting than Sandy Hook Shootemup? I agree that there were some definite inconsistencies throughout Lucky Day Forever, and pretty subjective themes, but it really set a good tone throughout and the animation was keen.
I definitely enjoyed Batman Hates Bronies, Ragemelon, and Swelter better, though.
Abobo's BIg Adventure was pretty cool, I mean maybe I just didn't get it. I thought Infectionator 2 was betfter, but those guys (Toge Productions) just sort of vanished off the Earth. Maybe they graduated college and stopped caring or something. I would rather that happen than a fatal accident or anything like that.
And then to add to the controversy, there is Hillbilly Bongo School.
PS: what's a "deathink"?

Oh, please allow me to clarify Sandy Hook Shootemup: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/608848

You don't actually eat the babies.
Yeah, what SafePlagiarism said. First off the "black people" (and i don't even think they are black) are not ugly at all, it's the "white people" that look creepy as fuck. Its not about black people in poverty and white people in opulence, it's about real people in the real world, and fake people living in a fake world. It's a commentary on today's mass media, and an extremely accurate one at that.
