GO GO GO! I already mentioned it once, and I failed to clean the inbox. Now I did, so SPAM IT!

How it should look like when sending it

How it should look like when I receive it

Also REMEMBER to use an emoticon! ANY emoticon! And spam BOTH subject AND body with the > symbol.

SPAM SPAM SPAM! SPAM TO RACK UP YOUR CREDITS. More credits = more exposure in the NG Guide.

So yesterday I counted up the spam experiment and posted the results here.

However I decided to be cocky and deleted one of Spaintendo's spam PMs. Then I asked the two people in the Newgrounds Guide Chat, Basset and deathofghosts, to spam the living fucking hell out of the inbox again (if they can).

So who spammed how much?

Basset = 10 (33.33%)
deathofghosts = 10 (33.33%)
NGReviewEater = 10 (33.33%)

And apparently all 3 of us got 30 PMs worth of spam, yet we only got rid of one PM worth's of spam. So where is the extra 29 PMs stored...?

Related chat messages:

NGSuperMarioBS = SMBS / NGRE
DeathofghostsNG = deathofghosts
BassetNg = Basset

7:39 NGSuperMarioBS: Well gentlemen
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: We have went overboard with our spam
7:40 DeathofghostsNG: what?
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: The first verdict was
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: 177 messages with 100% inbox
7:40 DeathofghostsNG: 171
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: Now the 2nd verdict is:
7:40 DeathofghostsNG: 20?
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: 206 messages with 110% (?) full inbox
7:40 DeathofghostsNG: ...WTF!!!!!!!!!
7:40 NGSuperMarioBS: WTF is right
7:40 DeathofghostsNG: we broke NG...oh noes!!!
7:41 NGSuperMarioBS: Hahahaha
7:41 BassetNg: Dommsday's here
7:41 DeathofghostsNG: divid by zero error!!!!!!!!!!
7:41 NGSuperMarioBS: You guys are making me laugh
7:41 DeathofghostsNG: MUHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA >:-(
7:41 NGSuperMarioBS: Real hard
7:41 BassetNg: Tom will ban us D:
7:41 NGSuperMarioBS: This section of the chat's going to the next post
7:41 DeathofghostsNG: what did we do?
7:41 NGSuperMarioBS: We went overboard with the storage space, and ate more storage space than allowrd
7:42 NGSuperMarioBS: *allowed
7:42 DeathofghostsNG: how did we break the PMs
7:42 DeathofghostsNG: WTF we have broke NG
7:42 NGSuperMarioBS: It's probably a glitch
7:42 NGSuperMarioBS: I deleted one of Spain's PMs
7:42 DeathofghostsNG: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
7:42 NGSuperMarioBS: And it got 30 more PMs in
7:43 NGSuperMarioBS: WTFFFFFFF?

So the final TWO verdicts for the 2nd experiment are:

177 PMs, with 100% inbox full [Picture]
206 PMs, with 120% (?) inbox full [Picture Below]

Wow. Just wow. Discuss.

And here are the results of the experiment:

Spaintendo = 100 (56.49%)
Ghosts = 36 (20.34%)
Kirby = 24 (13.55%)
Jakenator = 20 (11.30%)
SMBS/NGRE = 1 (0.6%)

So the number 1 spammer once again is Spaintendo! He got the title TWICE! Congrats you fucking Spanish spamming bastard!

Thank you to all of you who contributed! You all will be mentioned in the NG Guide credits, and those who participated twice will get a larger section of the pie!

While Spaintendo, deathofghosts, and I were on the NG Guide chat, Spaintendo discovered this new limit where you can send a certain number of PMs before getting temporarily blocked from PMing. We assume it's 30 PMs per minute, but we can't confirm this. Here's a pic of the error message. Nevertheless it's a huge discovery!

Our next target of the experiment is:

1. The characters "&" filled up in subject & body
2. Any letter from "A-Z" or numbers from "0-9" flooding the body. NO SPECIAL SYMBOLS ALLOWED.
3. Flood the body with the < symbol (like "<<<<<<<<<<<<")
4. Flood the body with the > symbol (like ">>>>>>>>>>>>")
5. Flood the body with the " symbol (like """""""""""""""" )
6. All characters aligned to the left (the & symbol)
7. All characters aligned to the left (any numbers 0-9 or letters A-Z)
8. Words separated with gaps (like "SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM")
9. A single dot as the subject and body message
10. A simple sentence

SO START SPAMMING TO RACK UP YOUR CREDITS! I check the inbox once a day, so if you have hit the limit PM me (NGReviewEater) so that I can check it again and clear them out. If you see me in the NG Guide chat, let me know there if possible.

Shut your whore mouths.

SPAM IT ALREADY!

Example of how it should look like when sending a spam PM

How it should look like when I open it.

GO!

[More info here]

This graph below describes it.

And the y = 8 is the limit where I will not be able to handle any more work if the workload goes beyond that limit.

Note in particular how in 2008 the workload was very small, in 2009 it like went up 5x (thank the NG BBS and Malachy) and in 2010 it's near the limit (thank the BBS, Malachy, the deletion of the news posts, and the asshole users for leaving abusive reviews).

And I predict in 2011 the workload will hit the 8.

EDIT: Son of a fucking bitch. That was meant to be 0.8, NOT 1.8. I'll fix the image tomorrow.

Today marks the first anniversary of the Newgrounds Guide! HOOOORAY!!!

Well why are you reading this post? GO READ THIS POST!

AW YEAH!

I'll reply to all PMs and ALL comments (including the abuse post) tomorrow. Today has been a long day.

I have the following things due by tonight:

- Reply to all comments here
- Flag all abuse before it slips through the cracks in the flash portal.

WOW.

And to make things worse, I have school work, AND have intentions in starting the NG Guide (in the NGRE account, in the TGPs).

Newgrounds never should put this much pressure, but sure is doing one hell of a good job in doing so. The termination of my 2,200 news posts (and I bet this fucking cuntface is to blame) adds another 4 months to the guide length, totaling 4,015 days (11 years) until the guide is 100% finished.

FUCK.

Shitty posts are shitty.
