Cheat2Win today became my second game to reach one million views!

Since I think that the question will come up: I have a sequel in mind, but I have stuff to do before might get on that. Ideas and suggestions are welcome btw :)

That is all.

So I think that I've finally come up with a nice graphic profile which is simple enough for me to being able to draw it myself.

And it's all thanks to a can of beer, see pic :)

For those of you who don't know the story behind my name (basically everybody? :D):
In Swedish kung = king, kungen = the king, and knugen = a nickname for the Swedish king (because he's dyslectic)

Just got my new monitor. This MultiScreen thing is going to be very handy :)

[Full res version]

I am so blaming the guy who made this if I don't get my school report made in time ;)

(Edit: I made the deadline, with a whole hour to spare :D )

function eye(posX:Number, posY:Number, obj:Graphics):void {
with(obj) {
beginFill(0x010101);
lineStyle(0, 0, 0);
drawCircle(posX, posY, 14);
endFill();

beginFill(0xf7f7f7);
drawCircle(posX, posY - 5, 5);
endFill();
}
}

var mc:Sprite = new Sprite();
with (mc.graphics) {
lineStyle(10, 0x010101);
beginFill(0xfe9900);
drawCircle(0, 0, 70);
endFill();

beginFill(0xffcd00);
lineStyle(0, 0, 0);
drawCircle(0, 5, 55);
endFill();

lineStyle(12, 0x010101);
moveTo(-65, -65);
lineTo(0, -5);
lineTo(65, -65);
lineStyle(10, 0x010101);
moveTo(-58, 50);
curveTo( 0, -8, 58, 50);
}

eye(30, 0, mc.graphics);
eye(-30, 0, mc.graphics);

mc.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;
mc.y = stage.stageHeight / 2 + 50;

var bgNoise:BitmapData = new BitmapData(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight, true, 0xFF0000);
bgNoise.perlinNoise(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight, 10, 47, false, false, 1, false);
var bgBmp:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bgNoise);

addChild(bgBmp);
addChild(mc);

Result:

Alright, so the Flash forum is probably one of the better forums on NG when it comes to people's behavior and attitude against each other.. But it can always get better, right?

I got the idea for this from the "kudos systems" that I've seen a few other forums use: Simply when someone makes a good post s/he gets one point, and in case of a bad post s/he could lose one. These stats would all be compiled into a list, and if many people uses the system then it should help improving the overall quality of posts :)

Now, NG does not have a system like this, and the staff probably have loads of stuff that would prioritize over it. But if you guys like this idea then an alternative is that I make a news post where people can suggest (there would have to be some kind of "quality control" of course) people that should get/lose points, and also where the list is administrated.

So, what do you think? Worth a try? :)

Btw, the reason why I talk about the Flash forum specifically is because that's where I spend almost all my time. Also, it might be good to limit the size of the list. If someone would like to apply this to another forum then go right ahead :)

-UPDATE-

Rudy have had some contact with the admins, and they say:

"BTW we tracked down that delete problem - it was related to a new web server that went live this week, so we're still sorting that out but in the meantime stuff won't get deleted anymore."

---

It seems to be some kind of problem with NG's file system, so when you try to update your submission it gets deleted. It appears to happen when you upload a new version of the .swf, but to be on the safe side you might want to refrain from editing anything at all.

This has not happened to me, but to Rudy and Montycarlo (and maybe somebody else as well?). I am merely making this post to warn everyone, I think the admins are likely to do the same with a news post if it's not an easy fix.

10k exp = 1k deposits = 5k votes (and probably quite a few more) = endless hours watching/playing flash = time well spent :)

Also: I'm making Flash again! I have barely done anything for almost half a year due to lack of time or motivation (I seem to always lack at least one of those..), but now I'm starting to work on my first AS3 game! If everything goes according to plan, it will be far better than anything else I've made up to this point, I dare you to not get hyped! :O

That is all.

I know it's still a while until '09 kicks in (unless you're Australian, or something stupid like that ;] ), but I'm soon heading on out and I won't be able to do this later. So..

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Don't know how many of you have seen The IT Crowd, but one thing is certain: if you haven't, you're missing out on something!
