NMDC News
All the news regarding Newgrounds spam and happenings. August is a very big month for Newgrounds this year, so we can't cover everything. Let us know if we missed anything.
2nd:
Joestar Poopypants won a Daily Feature AND Weekly 3rd for obvious hornybaiting. How else did it get 40K views?
In fact, three other hacks also managed to beat Piconjo's movie, notably Delfrig's Z, which a. isn't the real thing, it released next week to very positive acclaim, and b. uses music from the Jackson 5 and hasn't been removed yet.
4th
Hyun released a trailer for doors! the game, and launched a Kickstarter campaign, raising $34k out of a $40k goal. Do support this Kickstarter if you can, although we predict it will only just reach $36,000 unless some miracle happens in the near-future.
11th:
More Sublo and Tangy Mustard episodes are coming soon. While you keep waiting still, here's the cast talking about the upcoming shit.
12th:
A 16 year old is hosting a 'Cute Cat Collab'. It just got put on the front page.
13th
Chris Piche, aka the rapper who made a Kitty Krew song is hosting a 'BIG BOY RUMBLE TUMBLE' contest, which the front page accidentally refers to as 'Big BUY'.
Here, you must make a short animation featuring 'Big Hoss', who just happened to dethrone Morbius as 'The Character Of All Time' in a matter of minutes.
The rules are simple
1- Your entry MUST be created at 24fps and be between 5 and 20 seconds long. Submitting an animation above or below the limit will not be considered for the jam (though it will be for the collab).
Translation: Bog standard video format.
2- The aspect ratio must be 16:9, but the resolution can be 1920x1080 or 1280x720.
No one likes aspect ratio changes and quality shifts in between parts. Keep it consistent and mid-quality people!
3- Upload your animation to the movie portal using the tag "BigBoyRumbleTumble". We need this to find your entry!
Obligatory 'use a specific tag we provided' deal that Newgrounds did for over 2 decades.
4- No copyrighted music!! Use the audio portal if you need to add some.
This will get your submission and the collab removed.
5- No NSFW submissions... Big Hoss is a man of God.
Imagine a man of that size with no clothes on and his dick out. There may be some weird fetish who'd like that shit, but we personally don't, and we understand where they're going with this. You're fucked up!
13-14th
Pee Man vs the Monkeys developer DefaultLabs has officially quit Newgrounds and deleted their account and all solo projects.
Their official reasoning, in a tweet they made on Saturday:
"I've had issues with moderators on newgrounds ever since I was a lil boyman but now that im putting more effort into projects, I cant afford to invest time in a platform that deletes or ignores anything I genuinely give a shit about"
I just want to make 2 things clear. Newgrounds will ONLY delete your shit if it gets blammed, OR if you break any of the rules. This means no copyrighted music, keep it as original as possible, and put personal pride into it. If somehow it still gets removed after taking all those precautions, contact Tom Fulp, he's usually the go-to man for sorting shit like that out.
Also, we're on your side. We're just as pissed off about the scores and mods as you are, and we've been trying to convince the "80%" to vote fairly for over a year already.
15th
This is Clock Day. We don't need to explain this to you, but 21 years ago someone submitted the letter B and now there's a dedicated community centered around it, the first of its kind and still going strong. If you've already submitted something today, good for you!
