Congrats to Edmund and Danielle, who have officially tied the knot! If you remember, Edmund proposed to Danielle at the Independent Games Festival, after Gish won for independent game of the year! You can see the events unfold on my IGF photo page.

Congrats to the winners. Only one of the flashes I voted for got to the top 5. :S May had so many good flashes, so I can understand there were flashes that I wanted to win didn't get to the top 5.

Nice!NG SIME WON!I am so happy!

Congrats to all, especially to Afro =)

Here are some of the runner-ups!
14. Overrun II

Damnation and buggery, I could do with a graphics tablet =(
Oh well, next time maybe...

Congrats to all those who won. Vahalla Knights was good, as well as the NewGrounds Sim.

only one of the entries that i voted for won, which is "ducktalesZ 3" its too bad the other ones i voted for didn't make it. oh well.

hey tom, who won the random user prize?

Conrats to the winner, blah blah blah, Overrun shoud have finished higher...

Way to go winners! Especially NewgroundsSim, it definitally deserved to win

Congrats!

Congrats to Afro, enjoy the prizes.

Denvish deserved top prize, in my opinion... if only I could vote :)

Dude, it was still a killer game. I wouldn't worry about it at all. You're next one will no doubt knock everyone's socks off.

Congratulations to Afro_Ninja though, his flash was undoubtedly a requirement for the monthly top 5. I only wish Maxwell Edison story had been a 250 winner. He's a damned good flash artist.

Congrats to everyone else in the top 5 too. All the flashes deserved it.

Heh, looks like the NG sim won. I was hoping Overrun II would be up there as well. : (

It's a shame maxwell edison didn't win
or Overrun II

>:(@voters

all my 5 were picked not in my top 5 order but who cares...May was a great month...Congratulations to the winners...

Well 3 out 5 made it that want to. and too bad for OR II

Yeah whos the voter of the month.

Damn, that deserved number 4, methinks. Instead of valhalla. Bones ruled.

Awww man! Crab battle rocked the socks off everything else in that list apart from RAB 13 which was indeed very good and deserved it's place throughly.

Cheers Shawn ;)

NG Sim more than deserved it. But Email!! Should've won too.

Man i thought Nim's winter tale was gonna be up higher on the list! i guess the lack of action and comedy brought it down on the newground's standards scale.

wow, the winning submissions are even more overrated than I thought

Congrats to all the winners but I would have put burnt face man in the top 5. It's one of the greatest flashes ever. All the top 5 are very good though.

Okay, but who one the random draw for $100 US for the month of May?

Insane, ungodly, and ridiculous special thanks to anyone and everyone who voted for me, thought about voting for me, wanted to vote for me, and didn't vote for me but played the game

I love you all : )

As a long time NG member/fan/submitter winning first place for the monthly picks means more to me than you could possibly imagine

Congrats to the winners and runners up!

I especially wanted to see overrun up there though : /, <3 Denvish

THANKS AGAIN

Yet another month of insanely good quality flash content. I wonder what we'll consider "good quality" in a few years.

Congrats winners.

Probably nothing short of "Lord of the Rings" full length movies completely rendered in flash. It amazes me more and more each day how much the bar is raised.

email #6... DOH = P

Congrats all , especially ducktails = ]

<3 Afro Ninja.

One of the best games on Newgrounds i have ever played, you well deserve the award.

If i could o i would have voted for you.

hey that's the second time granfaloon gets into monthly top 5 (see real legend of zelda 2)

is he the first to do that?

too many good flash for only 5 choice but my bigest surprise is " The Maxwell Edison Story " only 10th when its the current all time number 1 guess the panel doesn't always follow everyone

also non livinston only 17th, did everyone just forget that one cause it was posted at the start of the month?
