Reddit

[AlbinoClock]

This is an untapped outlet with a lot of users. We could easily make a name for ourselves in /r/animation and get a lot of exposure.

[Odo]

Do you have a plan?

[AlbinoClock]

Yeah it's called post yer damn movies to /r/animation

[FLOUNDERMAN_CLOCK]

We need to post the classics first.

[AlbinoClock]

That too.

[Topcatyo]

We should make a Clock Crew account on Reddit (does Reddit use accounts? It basically looks like Digg.com to me) and post some of the better movies to it. We could have members audition their movies to be posted on Reddit.

[AlbinoClock]

Here's the thing, reddit's voting system is probably harsher than the portal. Probably best that we all have accounts. Still, it might be a good idea to have one account to post all the classic movies from.

[WrenchClock]

Clock Crew, we run Reddit.

[AlbinoClock]

Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

[WrenchClock]

Are we gonna flood it with spam or actually put some quality stuff on there?

[Thor]

Spam is more fun, because they'll get indignant.

[FLOUNDERMAN_CLOCK]

I'm submitting total fucking metal 1 and 2.

[WiiClock]

Yeah, Reddit is not the NG portal. Munglai could get some good exposure from it, but our spam flashes won't actually be seen by anyone.

[YoYoClock]

lots of spam from the same account of with similar content will quickly get flagged and from then on blocked by the spam filter.

[AlbinoClock]

This is true. Some of the weirder stuff might still get some exposure, but outright spam will probably just get downvoted into oblivion.

what's reddit? i live in a box

[AlbinoClock]

Reddit, Stoopid, is a content aggregator. It's a list of links and text posts that is based on which subreddits you subscribe to. Check it out, it's pretty cool.

[buttplug]

Beware, most people on reddit suck.

[AlbinoClock]

Reddit's community is pretty diverse. I'd imagine /r/animation is probably best for the upper-crust of our flash, but some of the other subreddits might appreciate different aspects of the Clock Crew. If you look at the main subreddits, there are a *lot* of idiots that we could be trolling, whereas some of the smaller ones are more sophisticated and often have tighter communities. Also, banning on reddit is nearly non-existent unless it's determined that you're a commercial spammer. The worst you're going to get is downvoted.

Even if we do get downvoted significantly (which I expect we'll have a bit of a buffer against, with our community backing), we can have some visibility, especially if we do something in the vein of duck day or camel day.

There are so many subreddits that it's really hard to pigeonhole reddit as any one particular flavor of site.

[Topcatyo]

I like to think of my movies as barely ever including inside jokes related to Newgrounds. Some clock movies more than other would translate over to Reddit well.
