Make it short and sweet

I'm new. Been through some other places. Third time a charm. Nice to see you all and such.

[TropicanaClock]

TLDR. nice to meet you

[AstronautClock]

you should make some flash movies if you want to be an animator

[AbsintheClock]

Why is that hand facing in the wrong direction, and why is it holding a spatula?

[screwdriver_clock]

So from reading this, you're a guy who joined Newgrounds to watch sprite films and hentai.


Off to a good start from there, but to top it off you've got a childlike understanding of how the crew works and what they do. Yeah I could work with that, though it seems like would be better suited to making flash right now rather than gigantic walls of text.

[BoomStick Clock]

hello, welcome to okcupid.

[RobClock]

Holy fuck man, that's one hell of an essay you've got written there.

I'm not going to read it.

Welcome to the Clock Crew.

[VuBawlsClock]

I read it.
Thank you, thank you a lot.
Welcome.

If Corpse and BB10 got married... this would be the offspring.




Ok man. We, generally speaking, don't really embrace a lot of those interests that you cited. That being said... we love and welcome everybody.

Just abide by the rules and try to learn some cool art shit while you're here. You'll be surprised at the wealth of talent this forum homes.

[AnkhClock]

I skipped all of it, anyway welcome dude hope you accomplish something.

[NintendrCkolc]

Obviously we should require every new person to write a 2 page essay as to why they wanna clockcrew and how they clockcrewed the clockcrew to begin with.

[Slurpee]

Welcome aboard, pal! Nice first post.
Welcome to "The Crew"
As you can probably see from my friends here, we do things a liiitle kookier than some other crews you might bump into it, here at the Clock Crew. Or... Cock Crew??? LOL

No I'm just kidding, of course. As you can see we like to have fun.

it was for vuvu really. It was not my intention for trying to "demand" people for that I apologize.

And I totally agree with you and everybody here. I'll get to work now.

[pop-tart]

First thing you need is a clock name.

Got any idea who you'd like to be?

[pop-tart]

A more or less special request by Vuvu...Or VuBawlsClock I believe

Anyway greetings fellow clockers!! I'm known as "Night" least for now till I go the necessary procedures into being initiated or accepted in your grace. I'm indeed a new fellowcomer and have been affilated with newgrounds since registration of '07. I do indeed live in The United States and currently a college student in a community college. I am currently in studying the art field and do intend someday to be a top-knotch animator. My areas of interest are of course art and reading, cartoons/shows, online web videos, human behavior, and mathematics(to a certain degree of level). I'm a very you would say "shy" and quiet kind of guy. I have a tendency to indeed hop around from one place to another and often criticized outside world that sometimes my topics become irrevelant to the issue at hand and if I ever do that I apologize its part of manners I'm still trying to contain today.

Below here is more of my history of me and nothing about my "clock" character You are free to give questions about me (or say hi) even if you do not want to read my stuff!

How I Found Newgrounds (You can skip this)

In my early years before registration on ng, I really had no interest in animation or art. In fact all I cared was being entertained! So during my junior school years, A friend of mine whom was searching for funny internet videos came across the website newgrounds and he would have us view halo, zelda, and mario parodies typically and view higher mature content. Eventually I became curious to know what excatly is newgrounds when my brother started taking a habit of viewing the site quite more frequently and so I finally took a look around. I was surprised at first of how I never seen such content before viewing only flash movie ratings of 3.30's or higher movies that touched on my interests. I wanted to register to solely find and favorite everything form the site that appealed me and admittely I had an appetite for pornography content both real and animated.

Discovery Of Flash Crews (You can skip this)

Eventually I finally enocuntered a flash crew.. The first one being is the Kitty Krew. This was on accident since I was browsin for garbage whistle for reasons I do not remember but it was one fo the most idiotic things I done on the web to "fight" with someone online who was clearly just messing with him enjoying how I took things too seriously. Ironically though I did register in their forums to have a brief look after discovering them on wikipedia on the newgrounds page as one of the four major flash crews at that Time (Star Syndicate, $500 steakhouse, and of course Clock Crew). I was going to spam their site till somehow although I don't recall have somekind of affection at that moment and became their newbie member. This over a period of time was then ended after a shutdown.

Afterwards Of BFK's KK Forum Shutdown (You can skip this)

I was lost at this time and didn't know what to do. I have a fondness to be part of a group and wanting to fit in so I tried the clock crew but some reason found it so overwhelming I decided I would not be fit for them. So admittely, I did join $500 steakhouse. I was very comfortable at that time but rules and regulations tend to make me feel uneasy what to post so I decided to be cautious and careful on what I say regardless of user and any boards including the spam section. I was indeed comfortable with them too but they shutdown their site to have it remodeled at that time but timing could not have been any worse for me for I was finally making an animated signature with decent work I put through as an LL member. Eventually I felt divided feelings about myself and the flash crews I had a moment of silent absence right after a placed an account on the cc..

A Divided Heart

Afterwards after many many events, I simply watched ng clips and awards events through my account nothing more or less. I had kept in touch with some of my friends(Most of them Former KK members) for chatting purposes and watching funny and sometimes very bizzare clips. I was a typical starting teenager at this time and just wanted to have things go in my way while kissing ass for the adults and my loving family so they wouldn't bother me most of the time. By this time, I was honored to receive my first laptop. It was used for anything but professional work and I would waste so much energy and life devoted on watching shows and endless cartoons and internet clips and playing games. Eventually through highschool, I started to look back at Newgrounds to find some motivation for projects and research for class. I sign in and look around and this would be my first notice regards of CC and LL collection of flash work. I never really watched CC flash due to devotion to the LL at that time. I enjoyed blue's "dark" protrayal setting of strawberryclock's adventures of the void. This stook out for me to motivate myself to draw my own creations of dark and strange creatures and sometimes stick figures which for the life of me got sick of how horrible drawn they were of mishapen limbs... I started now to have a liking of both LL and CC and was aware of some alleged "rivalary" between them. So I kept a quiet profile of looking at both sites and occasionally the KK whenever I find funny topics. Over a long set a period of time this would continue...

Graduation:Beginnings and Ends

I finally graduate high school and devoted on search of animation life due to personal life events. It was my chance to shine in a more now insignificant flash crew. Little did I take account of horrbile understanding of using Adobe Flash CS3.
This of course failed and my username alt was bringing out only the spam never the real work I have hoping for. Due to friendship made, I kept in touch with some of them even though they crumbled eventually and I registered a newly LL as a different user and alleged "newcomer" to keep a low profile and discover some works to find out how very small but still pretty good artists still remain active. Of course active flash work is very hard.. That is when I went back to my cc account to find it deleted for reasons I assume wasting good space for better newcomers which admittely its my fault for not associating with cc members. So after a period of time wasting efforts and little encouragement from strange ones, I made two final alt accounts one for one place and one for another which has no production and eventually discarded them as nothing more but a waste of time. However, During those times.. I have been working on my drawing skills that look better than it was in previous years of efforts that made me feel very good about myself. I made my won goals on what to do now since my previous crews were now "dead" on flash work so I finally forced myself the urge and confidence to finally step in your forums..

Why I Registered at CC

It should have been the other way around really. The CC was the first to have spawned in Newgrounds and gained recognition thanks to Founding and King StrawberryClock. I was also found it funny about certain people jokingly fight for the Title by expressing it through flash work as to be enjoyable most notably you would know CarrotClock and StrawberryLock for that time. It was also the offical part of newgrounds as "the gang" on the flash portal section of NG.

I register for cc to learn and understand more about CC. I find it very comforting that I need not require of a most amazing character or object needed to be an clock member as seen by most of your more talented people by being simple fruits, food, or objects you'd find almost anywhere nowadays. Yes I do admit mostly I want to work on solely my interests into becoming an animator but I do have real love for you guys because intentional or not, some of you make me feel like I want to bring out the weirdness of me and how it fits in my manner of thinking when I'm stuck or disinterest in my sessions at college or at home doing work. In fact I used StrawberryClock as a model to set up a ng setting when I was trying to pump up the KK during the time of Portal Defenders came out. I also used him when my professor was discussing about spanish words and I would draw SBC wacking the spanish words into sea monster with an sombrero only detailed with spanish words fighting him and on textbooks that weren't mine during high school years.

I am not a great artist you can see my avatar and obviously I have a long way to go(I'm not special I know)... I do hope to be part of your community alot more if accepted
