Best of May!

[TomFulp]

Sorry for the late posting of the best of May winners! This past weekend was the 2nd Annual Mod Meetup, where we spent four days drinking in downtown Philly and at the NG office. I spent most of today at a sales meeting with Tim, where we got a rundown of the new file system we may be purchasing for Newgrounds. We thought the load balancer was expensive, but this NAS file system is totally nuts.

I'll be putting together a Mod Meetup page once I gather up more pictures. In the meantime, here are the winners for BEST OF MAY! All ten winners will receive $250, a certificate and a t-shirt! They will also receive the Dr. Shroud DVD, courtesy of Knight Entertainment!

And I would have said that this deserved to be in the top 5, had I not found out that he basically stole everything from HyperFrame after I'd voted for it.

You missed a fun time. You could have wandered the insane asylum halls drunk.

It would have...IF IT WAS SUBMITTED BACK IN MAY. It was submitted June 3. But it should be on the "Vote best for June," when that rolls around.

Hey, is that the file system that will make the AP run smooth?

[FatherTime89]

um weren't Pico Sim date and Pico's unloaded the game submitted in April . . . you know for Pico Day.

[Adam-Ant]

Congratulations to BigArmyBug on getting 2nd best for the month. And thank God that Legendary Faggot didn't get into the top 5. It's scary that he got to 6th place though, definitely cutting close.

[BlueHippo]

though bigarmybugs movie was only on the frontpage for a short couple of days ( :( ) i'm still glad to see it got one of the top five :D

congrats to all the other winners as well, and also JParadox (enjoy your free cash :))

[Tommy]

Congrats to the winners. Specially PG.

Actually, the agreement was that I'd get this little bit. We'll see if he holds up that part. Judging from his track record, though..

They were past the monthly deadline so they crossed over.
