Reviews for "A Newgrounds Voting Guide"

I was disappointed.

selected aspects (rated from ----- to +++++)
(note: I'm not rating everything or trying to break the flash up into constituent parts. Just giving you an idea of how good/bad I consider the points I mention.)
===============================

+++: I like the premise and was really looking forward to watching this.

-----: You're encouraging folk to blam things without really watching them.

--: No mention of tricks used to appear better for viewers to watch out for - e.g. brilliant pre-loaders, great intros followed by shite or nothing.

--: Much of what you say is subjective.

--: The rest of what you say is common sense and much of that is badly written. Specially for a text-based flash.

overall
=========

Look, it's good that you're trying to help clean up crap, but this really seems like something you should have posted in the bbs. Maybe you could have gotten some others to help you write your 'guide', then when it had been available for a wee while, you could have put it into the portal.

In any case, remember that blamming good stuff harms NG more than saving shite. Folk deciding without watching harm NG more than folk who make judgements different to the norm after watching.

If you wanted to avoid being hypocritical, you could have tried making this a bit more substantial. Off the top of my head (not great example), maybe it could have a quiz at the end, with some example .swfs and asking us what we'd rate them, then you say what your opinion was.

You say you "have grown irritated with people who have protected crappy flash entries." I hope you realise the irony.

A good guide for blamming

Buuut, how about you show us what a good flash looks like, eh? lol

I get what your mean

Although i agree with everyone else about the movie quality (even though they seemed harsh) i also get where your coming from.

It had a point to it that some people would be wise to consider.

Keep practising!

hahaha

You gave an example of a crappy movie... What about a good movie example? Eh?
Anyways, you're right about some things.

Erikcq.

....stop it. No, seriously, stop.

Begone, foul bag of unfunny crap! Watching this made me want to vote 5 on ALL of StrawberryClock's movies every day for the rest of my life, begging him to flood the portal with his work JUST SO I DON'T HAVE TO WATCH ONE MORE FUCKING THING FROM WHATEVER ABORTED NAZI MONKEY FETUS SPAWNED THEE.

The most useful part of this movie was when he "explained" the meanings of the 1-5 vote buttons. Which are already labelled. WHENEVER YOU PUT YOUR DAMN MOUSE OVER THEM.

Oh, God, the pain....

roflmao. no, seriously. I am. That was funny.

I know it seems bad, but some people don't even know how to use the basic things. It pisses me off more than this pissed you off.

Thanks for the great score!
