So one of my flash animations was the second highist scoring ever...

Posted by Emptygoddess - August 26th, 2009

It was! It really was.... second highest scoring ever for like, point five seconds!

Freaken weird. The animation in question is http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/
368565 an animation that while I don't think it's bad... is NOT the second best animation this site has ever seen. By any qualification other than that dreamed up by a madman who is in love with and stalks me.

I found how this happened, to be very interesting. When the animation was first submitted, like two years ago, it received a decent score. It got the daily fifth. I was pleased.

Recently I submitted another animation that did very well. People liked it a lot. It got daily third! or forth...o r second... or... it got a nice award as well! Some liked it. Some hated it. Yet it was part of a series, only those that liked it went and watched the other bits... and then because they already liked the series and my humor, voted it five. Allowing for a dramatic over inflation of the score of that inconsequential animationy bit.

Also, as it had only been seen by very few people in the long run, not all that many votes were required to up the score.

And thus madness was able to occur.

Still, the print screen I took of this moment is now my computer desktop and probably will be for awhile. And I will always hold a grudge against turtle toss for keeping me from claiming to have had at one time the 'best scoring' animation on newgrounds.

Don't worry though, once people noticed something as small and pixilated and odd as that animation was so high they quickly remedied the situation. It's score is now a safe 4.20 or so. The citizens of newground struck with swiftness and justice once again.

They are vigilantes of their own streets, and they will not stand for such injustice.

Thanks for everyone who voted it high and pushed it up there. And a special shout out to everyone who voted it back down. That was weird and freaky, the world was not right, and you have once more put things as they should be.

damn tuff titty thats goes to show many people are on newgrounds

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 03:11:08

It does? okay.

Gonzossm 2009-08-26 03:12:18

Hey look toss the turtle is number one!

I enjoyed ure Legend of link animation, I watched the others as well :P plan on making more?

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 03:12:18

Damn you turtle toss! *shakes fist*

coolit12 2009-08-26 03:54:47

lol I saw that and I was all "what?!"
I was wondering why it wasnt "oh yes and spiders" it was better and it would've made sense
btw you got 4th and 5th too now and red remover somehow made 2nd >.<
(it isnt that cool)
Good Luck hope to see more (like logic and others :D) -coolit12
btw get off 4th and 5th if you aren't gonna let "oh yes and spiders" be in the top five

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 03:54:47

I don't have magical control of the top fifty scoring list. But thanks for thinking i do.

Catoblepas 2009-08-26 04:10:04

Yeah and for some time the dark knight was the highest rated movie on imdb ROFL

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 04:10:04

I really don't think the two events were all that similair.

Deadclever23 2009-08-26 06:00:15

Well right now you have 2 movies in the top 10 of all time so yeah.

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 06:00:15

That's even weirder. My world is not okay.

JonBro 2009-08-26 07:29:28

You're lucky. I only have a print-screen of one of my movies being number forty-something in the top fifty. You have photo evidence you were up there next to the top.

GRRRRR

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 07:29:28

That's still cool.

HappyYeti 2009-08-26 08:35:34

if only you gave me $50, maybe then i could solve everything

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 08:35:34

I'd rather keep the fifty dollars and my problems.

Debu-Sama 2009-08-26 13:06:13

i dont really think its THAT strange to be honest. Even though it was a sprite movie it had good humor and no one can really question the popularity of the legend of zelda.

I had never heard of the legend of link flashes until i saw oh yes and spiders however i watched them right after OYAS. I mean its hard to find quality flashes here on newgrounds that doesnt contain cock jokes(though they can be quite funny sometimes). Even though im your typical Egoraptor fan i really enjoyed your work. I hope i will see more of these in the future.

good work.

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 13:06:13

OYAS? I'm now surprised you're the first person I've seen acronym it up. The internet refuses to type everything out. I worry that it will get to the point where acronyms are representing other acronyms, seems like that could get confusing.

BlackMorningStudios 2009-08-26 18:02:58

People just appreciate hard and honest work. Why are you freaked out by it? No confidence in your work perchance or is happiness to you, like a silver bullet is to a werewolf? Anyway good for you. Here have this non-existent cookie, and a no nonsense opinion about what you just said, cheers!

Emptygoddess 2009-08-26 18:02:58

A non-existent cookie? That's... that's horrible. Why would you do that? that's like giving someone not a million dollars. It's just mean.

Joswaldo 2009-08-28 13:41:11

Alright I dont know what your talking about. I thought the movie(s) was amazing. I mean it had good voice acting, good humor and a well flowing plot line. Basicly all that is needed to make a movie good. The fact that is pixles doesnt change much...but anyways yeah nice job on getting #2

Emptygoddess 2009-08-28 13:41:11

For .5 seconds!

keyreal 2009-09-01 04:26:59

I was one of those people that watched all the other episodes after I've seen "Oh yes and Spiders", so yeah you should thank me too :D
You should really make more episodes, I know it's easier to be said than done (am a flash artist myself) But still :D

Emptygoddess 2009-09-01 04:26:59

Could you do all the work for me? Because I'd be sooo into that.

spinbob32 2009-09-02 04:46:27

yeah it is pretty tough but second place is good but first is better and for toss the turtle i havent played it but im sure you will get number 1 someday

Emptygoddess 2009-09-02 04:46:27

I doubt that. I'm far to lazy.

Mozaralio 2009-09-05 04:27:00

Hey, ya I'm back congradulations on your video being ranked #2 best of all time even if it was for .5 seconds, you still did it right? And since you have that picture no one can ever say. "You totally did not rank #2 on best of all time" Although in the future if anybody did say that I suppose you could just saw off there finger or something with you robot parts, just to show them whos boss (and that you dont apreciate being called a liar although maybe you do I cant tell), assuming you have them by then...but ya anyway congradulations.

Emptygoddess 2009-09-05 04:27:00

You've been watching me for hours? creepy. Stop that!

wolfhart 2009-09-08 15:15:14

Can you explain again what was wrong by that qualification?
I'm watching you for hours now and I still don't get why it isn't supposed to be there?
Btw, your dinner looked delicious.

Emptygoddess 2009-09-08 15:15:14

That's because it's macaroni and cheese. The most delicious looking of dinners.

UrbanRoninZero 2009-09-12 01:43:12

How do I mark the author's RESPONSES to reviews as abusive or unhelpful?

Emptygoddess 2009-09-12 01:43:12

You can't. Just like you can't punch god in the eye.

Mozaralio 2009-09-12 02:40:31

When did I say I was watching you for hours #1 and #2 how could i watch you for hours, I do however sign into newgrounds once a day or every other day see what new flashes there are and see if i got any responses to anything or mail...so I think chatting on your comment pages has become integrated into my newgrounds routine. Anyway, later

Emptygoddess 2009-09-12 02:40:31

...seeya? *waves half heartedly*

UrbanRoninZero 2009-09-13 10:35:58

I finally found something weirder and creepier than you: Your fans.

Emptygoddess 2009-09-13 10:35:58

I can tell the colon makes you feel smart.

MattheP 2009-09-13 23:01:36

You thoroughly (Spelling?) deserved that honor, in fact, deserve even higher. Your flashes are amazing, i've watched each about 10 times each! I'm a giant fan, and definantly want to see more. I don't see why you think so little of your work though, each one is comedic genious! It's not over the top, sexual and all obnoxiously cruel humor; but witty, clever, and the type of laughs everyone can't help but love. I do hope the "Next time on" On the options of LoL: Oh Yes, and Spiders was true, and that we can expect another in the future.

I am planning on Donating, as I feel the same about sparing a buck or two to support peoples great work.

I've voted 7 for your videos as well.

I do enjoy all of your work, and am hoping for more.

Thanks for taking the time to read my rambling,

Matt P.

Emptygoddess 2009-09-13 23:01:36

Not everyone. Some people don't like them and it is within their right to dislike my stuff.

Also, my stuff is not nearly as good as the stuff I really like. So. yaknow. Thanks for your kind words.

Do feel free to give me money. I always like money.

Skullstorm 2009-11-07 16:16:29

wow...i saw that on frontpage but i had no clue about it being the second best thing on ng...u r incredibly good at spriteing XD

Emptygoddess 2009-11-07 16:16:29

it was like a tenth of a second. I don't think it really counts.

So one of my flash animations was the second highist scoring ever...
