2 awards in one day?!?!?!?

Posted by cheshirecat1582 Jul. 12, 2008 @ 2:00 AM EDT

Wow I can't believe I won 2 awards for the same day on 2 different flashes... Strange, Maybe I should have waited before entering the last flash since I kinda knocked my self down on that one... Maybe I should be smarter next time... Lol anyways... check them out if you want...

Does anyone vote on there own flashes? I always feel guilty if I do...
Also when do you think is the best time to enter a flash to get the best response? I always wondered if I should wait till like noon to submit or wait till like 8 or 9?
Things to ponder....

Thanks


Jul. 12, 2008 | 2:19 AM Wurmy says:

Congrats :)
Personally I would wait until 8 or 9 to submit. I guess I don't have a reason for that except less waiting until daily awards :)

your animation needs to be smoother, its really shakey right now


Jul. 12, 2008 | 3:14 AM FatBadger says:

Everyone at some point votes on there own flashes.


Jul. 12, 2008 | 3:20 AM Matt-Porter says:

Congrats on that, nice to see some females around here heh, curse you and being able to leagally drink, being 20 sucks. Good job on the movies, peace.


Jul. 12, 2008 | 3:27 AM Five-Iron says:

I like to submit the flash durring the middle of the day. That way a bit of everyone can see it I think.


Jul. 12, 2008 | 3:34 AM Five-Iron says:

Haha, We still need to work on something together. It's been so long I've actually ordered a new computer and am almost done with a very long project :D


Jul. 12, 2008 | 3:56 AM Afro-Ninja says:

I think everyone 5's their own stuff after submitting it. Just imagine that you're counteracting the vote of some idiot giving you a 0 for no reason

Jul. 13, 2008 | 5:48 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Lol I always wondered if maybe newgrounds docks you when you vote on your own work... So I never really vote on mine except when I first submit it... Lol but I dont think newgrounds would do that now that I think of it... But I do feel kinda guilty about that because Its kinda bi est.


Jul. 12, 2008 | 4:05 AM TheCriminalDuder says:

Right on. Congrats. ^^


Jul. 12, 2008 | 4:08 AM Xionico says:

Congrats :D

I usually wait until 8 or 9 to submit it, no exact reason, it just makes me feel it has higher chances to have a daily

And yeah, as Afro-ninja said, usually your own 5 is just to counteract some idiot's 0

Pretty nice symbolism in the flash's :D, the advice for improvement would be to ease the movements a bit, but pretty good work.

See ya later ;D

i vote my flahes down so that people think i'm underrated

Jul. 13, 2008 | 5:53 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Really? But people cant see what you voted can the? I have voted a 5 on my own flash but I also voted a 3 or 4....

I'd say you cheated, but you put in work on your submissions. You deserve your awards. Congratulations. Keep up the good work.


Jul. 12, 2008 | 7:16 AM Renkadian says:

Congratulations! :D


Jul. 12, 2008 | 9:33 AM pthouse says:

I enjoyed that video! And yes, I think it's alright to vote on your own video. I submit mine just after midnight. That way people who are up late can watch them, people who are up early, etc. I really don't mean to brag, but I usually get a 1st or 2nd place daily award, so I think this method works well. Good luck with your videos!

Jul. 13, 2008 | 5:57 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Really? I would love to get a 1st or 2nd... I never get anything above a 3rd... Lol Its not that I really want to do better then anyone else... or have any advantage over anyone because of the time i submitted it or anything but Im always curious if it really mattered... I always like comments so are people more comment able late at night or early in the morning or during the day??? Humm maybe I would do a poll lol....

Jul. 12, 2008 | 11:24 AM JonBro says:

I always vote on my own Flashes. I mean, why not? =P


Jul. 12, 2008 | 12:41 PM DanielSteff says:

Where the fuck you get these ideas to make
this kind flashes?
~BIZARRE~

Jul. 13, 2008 | 5:58 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Haha... Thats a complement to me!!! I like Bizarre!!!


Jul. 12, 2008 | 1:21 PM Beeftastes says:

Congrats!

And good luck on making a flash that stays about a 4.0 rating! You've got a couple that are very close. :D

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:00 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Close but no cigar... Lol.... Thanks...


Jul. 12, 2008 | 1:41 PM PolishMatt says:

You might have won twice but they are still only 3rd and 5th places. They were ok.. too much tweening for my likings.

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:07 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

I never said I was the best or even any good... But I'm proud of them... 3rd and 5th place is pretty good in my book... Its how good I am at flash at this moment in time... You cant expect someone to be good at flash with out being "ok" at first...
I put Allot of work into these!!! So like I said... I am exited about it... even if your not...


Jul. 12, 2008 | 1:49 PM SpedsonaPlane says:

hehe remember the pick your song collab. your part was probably the best. too bad it had seems to died.

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:08 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

What ever happened to that? I never did hear back if that went through or not... Or anything...


Jul. 12, 2008 | 2:22 PM NonPlusUltra says:

i'd say it's 80% skill , 2 % luck and 18% "i'm a girl" bonus that you go the awards :>
3 things that i don't have :P keep it up, good work

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:13 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

You think the fact that I'm a girl makes me get an award? Humm... I guess I never thought about it... Strange... Isn't there other girls who submit stuff?

Just cuz I have a vagina shouldn't be a reason my flash gets a better score... confused...


Jul. 12, 2008 | 5:25 PM sorbitol says:

I used to "5" my own movies believing that they would somehow fly through "Judgement" and get great scores until one day while submitting some crap at 2am in the morning (GMT) I accidentally "Blammed" my own cartoon.

I broke out into a cold sweat and started vomiting.
However, when the movie passed it got a decent score, won an award and ended up on the front page.
Now I seem to have developed a kind of superstition whereby I always "Blam" my own cartoon while it is "Under Judgement".

It may seem foolish to some to spend months on a project, finally submit it and then be the first to vote zero but I swear it works. Every-time I follow the superstition I win an award or get front-page and, once, been offered some casual but lucrative work.

I don't know how it works but it does!

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:16 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

LOL you broke out in a cold sweat and started vomiting? Because you voted a 0? Thats awesome!!! I know Normally when I dont vote at all on my flash it will get a better score but I think its all in my head... lol Or maybe there is something to this... Anyways... Thanks for the story... it was very entertaining...


Jul. 12, 2008 | 7:07 PM sorohanro says:

you don't have to vote for yourself ... i vote for you ;)
anyway, congrats for the awards, finally on NG people appreciate art stuff (not only "funny" flashes ... remembering some comments...)

Jul. 13, 2008 | 6:19 PM cheshirecat1582 responds:

Yeah but there are still some stranglers out there who vote 0 cuz it didn't have poop in it or a penis... lol I really hate that... nothing brings me down more then people sayign my work sucks cuz it wasn't funny enough... they just dont under stand... thats not why i do them... Lol but the people who do enjoy my flashes I normally go to there home page and see if they have anything they made... or i like to see whats in there faves... Lol but Thanks for your votes!!! Thats why I keep making Flashes...

Jul. 12, 2008 | 10:56 PM Yrtnej says:

Good job on your awards.


Jul. 14, 2008 | 5:28 AM sorohanro says:

actually you'r my favourite flash artist on NG (and EvilDog)
anyway, this is a fact that there are around 75~80 % stupid people in the world, NG make no exception
you make you art and put on your heart the feedback that you have from smart-wise-artistic educated people


Jul. 17, 2008 | 7:49 PM notorious says:

Awesome!

Oct. 2, 2008 | 5:16 PM Incognitus says:

With a website this large and thousands of voters, it's not going to make enough of a difference to be unfair, so voting on your own work seems to be the norm here. Congrats on the awards.


Oct. 2, 2008 | 5:31 PM TheMexicanMuffinMan says:

I wouldn't leave a review, but in 'I am the Walrus"
It's "Goo Goo G'joob"

That really just bugs the hell out of extreme Beatles fans.


Oct. 2, 2008 | 6:05 PM Hoekzema says:

Awesome job on the beatle song!

Nice work on the Pink Floyd movie, I kinda imagined the "music" a bit differently but sorta close.

Aww damnit you're a redhead! I'm a sucker for your type >.<

Anyway nice job! love the photoshop picture too, especially on the hair, holy crap you should see some work I do on birds.
