PROBIE DEATH MATCH!! 4 ENTER, 1 EMERGES A CLOCK

[AbsintheClock]

All right here's what I'm going to do. Paranoid is out of this matchup, but as a penalty for not having flash he's banned for a month. In 3 months we'll match him up against MWH and somebody else for the next probie death match. I'll ban him as soon as he acknowledges this and we'll move forward.

[whatever]

if all the probies actually listened to people when they said shut the fuck up, youre a bad poster and everybody hates you, we wouldnt be in this mess. if permabans are the only way to start motivating people around here, well...

no one actually ever tells me this

You can be really annoying. Also if I find out you or anyone else in this contest is outsourcing talent (asking people to draw things for you again) you're disqualified, and permabanned. This does not include using the FLA library or any other open resource.

So (just making sure I don't break any rules, here) I could use CorpseGrinder's Megapack?
EDIT: So does third place get permabanned now or do they still just get a month?

You didn't ask him to make it and it's there to download.

I think its a fair to say that it qualifies as an "open resource".

woah woah any other day i would be allowed to ask poptart to make circle with rectangles rotating around it but not for this animation?

and everyone else can just take drawings of clocks that took people like an hour to make, and i can't ask for something that would take literally 2 minutes

[AC Slater]

Blue didn't make the .flas for The Void. If you make something good enough no one will care, but if it's bad and lazy you're in trouble...

Yup. If you don't think you can make a quality .fla on your own, just use the ones in the library. Make up for the lack of your own, original, .fla in the amount of quality your movie has.

And Paranoid, as for the whole not having flash thing, how long is it going to take for your computer to be cleared of that virus? A lot of my older movies (and still some now) were made within two or three days. You could still make a good movie if you don't get your computer back until the last week of the competition.

If it only takes 2 minutes why don't you do it?

Welp, I'm pretty much done. Just fixing some stuff. Who should I send it to when I'm finished?

[clockradioclock]

So, um, instead of improving new members by flaming them into shape, we're going to start booting a third of this new userbase? This would be an ok idea if we had a ton of new members every month, but we get like 5 new members a year. Which means nothing because of the erratic coming and going of every other clock.

[AstronautClock]

He made 25 Flashes last year. He's made 4 so far this year. That's not enough for you?

hmm yes that is enough:duelin:

[AbsintheClock]

This probably won't be on a monthly basis but rather on a basis of how many probies we have at a time. Also asking questions is fine too, but any more whining about the competition gives you the boot. Also, yes 3rd is now a permaban.

I actually have been trying to improve, and I've been taking advice from Disco Ball. Sorry if I'm not getting better. I try

TRY HARDER BOI . Why back in my day, we made flash on the reg and not because we were forced to, but because we wanted to.

[clockradioclock]

The ultimate goal is to not have to ban anybody. Unfortunately some of our newer members refuse (and sometimes intentionally blow off) the advice of the older, better members. If the newer members are going to cause shit and make the forums a worse place for the rest of us, then we're better off without them. After multiple attempts by many people to try to get shit into order, we're gonna try this. It's time to shape up or ship out.


You know, flaming people into shape doesn't work when the members embrace their shittyness and refuse to improve.

This explains things much better, thank you.

[DiscoBallClock]

I actually have been trying to improve, and I've been listening to Disco Ball's advice. However, I don't comply for some reason. Sorry if I'm not getting better.

Fixed that a bit.

[TelephoneClock]

Good luck everybody!

[screwdriver_clock]

Thanks clammo for saying what I was going to you saved my fingers a few seconds. <3

[whatever]

If it only takes 2 minutes why don't you do it?

didn't realize this was a "pull a tony stark and a macgyver" animation. AFAIK it was a regular animation that would mean my life or death in the crew. and you're allowed to ask people for help when making a regular animation.

[DWARFINATORclock]

That's not always bad...

Ignoring good advice is good?
