Hmmm, I'm not exactly thrilled with this months results, but I abdicated my voting powers this time around so I don't really have a right to complain. Maybe I'll put in the effort next time around so I can have a reason to bitch and moan.

Seriously though, Phoenix Wrong?

well aren't you a cocky little son of a bitch.

huzzah! Ashford must be very happy.

Wow, "Phoenix Wrong: Last Stand" is just awful. I tried to watch it all...but it wasn't funny at all. I think you have to be between the ages of 12 and 16 to find that Flash funny.

Yay!

I remember when I had just heard about newgrounds about 4 or 5 years ago. I thought it was evil and disgusting...

I still think i was partially right, but i also believe that it's a real swell place for talent, and I'm really happy about all the success. We're all just trading success I believe

Glad to see Hans broke the barrier and got 5th.

Wow, I actually saw those Y-PA magazines laying around at my high school, I was pretty surprised seeing it there =P

Congrats to all the winners too!

Good to see Burnt Face Man picking up a well deserved first.

Wow.
What a selfish uppity dick you are.

Told you the winning movies would be the ones that deserved it the least.

tom, i would buy an angry shirt if you will take money orders.

i'm sure you still have them hidden somewhere in the ng office :D

Damn! I need that $100, baby! XBLA Games aren't free, Tom. Keep that in mind...

Meh, I am too lazy to insult all those dumb kids back who think they have the right to judge me.

Just feel insulted, everybody belonging to that group.

I CAN say what I want, you MUSTN'T insult

Red Baron is considered an NG original (art and idea by MindChamber), but all the programming was by FrostedMuffins, so I'm gonna hook him up with the prize rather than send it down the line.

Congrats dude!! You took a simple lil brawler idea and Turned it into a BIG Fun and simple Brawler!

You're a good sport, a Humble dude,an awesome Coder, with tons of great ideas.
We need more programmers on NG like you.
couldn't have done it without ya.

If you can say whatever you want, then we can say whatever we want back at you, it's how it works.

I do agree with you on one thing, your game is the best game ever. Your game is something completely original and made without any flaws to bring it down. Red Baron however took an already established form of game and made it awesome. The reason it beat your game is (my opinion only) that people were already used to that type of game, making it easy and fun to play. A totally new game, despite it's presentation, will have people backing away from it.

Besides, each winner gets the same amount of spoils, being 1st or 2nd or ever 5th only counts for bragging rights, and in the long run they don't matter much.

2. Phoenix Wrong: Last Stand

'Spolitics, 'spolitics.

I recall that the last time there was "Best of", it just BARELY got shut out of the top award spots, thus not receiving a prize. This is kinda like the Academy's where an actor/actress wins an award that they probably didn't didn't deserve, but in principle SHOULD have gotten for a prior achievement.

And for what it's worth, I thought it was pretty good :/

Good choices for everyone who voted! I'm surprised TSAH2 didn't rank number one, but a top five spot is still worth all that work I supose. I do beleive BotArena2 deserved a Top 5 spot, some of the best A.I. I've ever seen in a flash game. Each to his own taste. Congrats to all the winners!

I think all of the winners were chosen well, but I just don't get the point of Phoenix Wrong.

Thanks for agreeing :)

3. Bullet Bill 2
--> I love this idea.

5. Arrival In Hell
--> no match for Rocketfinger but still cool.

14. Autumn War
-->That's a pretty cool view of a figth
18. Soap Bubble II
--> I love the graphics style. Neat gameplay.

all those authors did a really great job

Hi.
Thanks for voting on Arrival In Hell! I am mega chuffed about this! Thanks everyone!
The other games and movies rocked too! A good month - TSAH2 is top notch, and especially Animation Invasion.
Good work guys!
Thanks again :D

good on ya tom

TASH2 and number 3 kick ass

awesome flashs!!!

Pheonix Wrong got 2nd? I figure it shouldve gotten 4th or 5th while Animation Invasion got 2nd. I loved that flash :D
Blockhead ep 8 was good as well, i think it has to be one of the best series on Newgrounds in my opinion.
