In addition to my polls is another Question...
___________________

Should "MADNESS" become an X-Box Live Arcade Shooter?
___________________

Madness Accelerant was the ever continuing flash wonder from the previous game Madness Regent.

It was based on the Mini-Flash series by Krinkels.

With re-invisioned Art-Style by Mindchamber.

And awesome Programing by Tom Fulp
___________________

Last year I said, "Yo Tom, wouldn't this be an Awesome X-Box Live game?"

Well...I ask you now...the Newgrounds Community.

Should Newgrounds develop a Madness game for X-Box Live?

With the recent 2 flash submissions...Both Madness Games serve as a Beta for a full on action side-scrolling shooter with no real plot, reason, or rhyme....

ONLY MADNESS!!!!!!

M-Bot : The Game : A Beta for a Future X-Box live arcade game?
______________________________________

Recent Flash Submission "M-Bot : The Game" has received overall - positive feedback.

Not only is this one of the few flash games to be released in High-Rez but it also features a new concept in the side-scolling shooter.

Mindchamber has had a reputation of pumping out hardcore games and animation.

And...

With his tag-teaming partner FrostedMuffins....

They have created games that rival the intense partnership that both Tom Fulp and Dan Paladin share.

Together, Mindchamber and Frostedmuffins has created...

The Notoriously Difficult Flash Game - Red Baron

The Equally Difficult Flash Game - Da Pink Knight (A Parody of Castle Crashers)

And The Recently Submitted - MBot : The Game

______________________________________

Mindchamber is a Newgrounds Staff member for a reason.

His envisions in the field of animation and games has inspired collaborations with some of the more well known flash artists here on Newgrounds.

Including....

Tom Fulp
Glaiel-Gamer
PsychoGoldfish
Mike + Carrot Clock
RiftMaster
etc.

His art and style features profound ideas with a flare of hip-hop culture.
______________________________________

Now I ask you this...what if Mindchambers M-Bot game were to become an XBox Live Arcade title?

Would you play it? After all - if you really enjoyed the Flash Version, the actual game was intended to be well over 6 levels long including 6 tougher bosses!

But doing so would probably make the flash well over 100 megs.

Which means it's a perfect size for a X-Box live arcade game.

In addition it will promote the whereabouts of Newgrounds as the worlds best and largest artist community website.

If you really enjoyed M-Bot the Game, leave a comment and express your opinions.

Movie of the Year - Snow Snow for Lucy

This movie was something else.

It was the spirit of forgiveness expressed in a twisted story of shattered innocence and a frail heart of a young heroine who was brave enough to forgive.

Part of the best way to spread Aloha is through gift baskets of Hawaiian delicacies.

These baskets of goodies often include treats that cannot be found on the mainland.

Things like...Mac Chocolates, Sour Plum, Lychee Jellies, Guava Juice, Dried Pineapple Cinnamon rings, etc.

These snacks are often bought from a "Crack-Seed" store. Crack-Seed is a pun for a store that sells many 'local' snacks.

If you enjoy tropical delights, a friend from Hawaii will mail you a package of goodies.

The Hawaiian Missionaries are the first postage stamps of the Kingdom of Hawaii, issued in 1851. They came to be known as the "Missionaries" because they were primarily found on the correspondence of missionaries working in the Hawaiian Islands. Only a handful of these stamps have survived to the present day, and so they are amongst the great rarities of philately.

Each stamp is worth about $717,255.

And only about 15 are recorded to exist.

Who says stamp collecting is stupid!

____________________

Surfing is basically what makes Hawaii so significant from the other islands of the pacific.

Many islands of the Polynesian share similar myths and legends. Similar music and foods....

But only Hawaii has brought forth the birth of Surfing....

Once a spiritual performance, surfing today is viewed as the leading ocean sport in history!

*There are about 10 different kinds of surf-boards.

Wooden
A classic style made in the old style of ancient Hawaiians. Usually 12 feet long, these boards are HEAVY and strong. But they are rarely used and only by PROS.

Shortboard aka 'Thruster'
The most common board used for competitions. These boards are usually only 5-6 feet long and are intended for quick turns. The best board for Experts.

Fish
About same length as a shortboard only wider and have a wider bottom that splits like a fish's tail. It is used to maintain speed and maneuvering. Used by intermediates.

Gun or Bullet
Long and thing in width. These boards are meant for SPEED. A board meant for Intermediates.

Longboard
These are the classic boards perfect for Beginners. They are big and long and are often the board of choice in classic surfer films. What matters most is how you design the body and how you shred the waves.

Malibu or Mini-Mal
The malibu board is similar to the longboard in its shape and riding characteristics, but it's slightly shorter length and slimmer width and tail allow for sharper turns.

Funboard
These boards perform well in all conditions and are ideal for less experienced surfers. They are EXTRA long and sturdy.

Foamboard
Otherwise known as 'foamies' or 'softboards'. They are designed for beginners... as because they are foam, they are easier to catch waves on, easier to stand up on and much more stable in the water. Also as they are foam they are less likel to hurt you or others around you, and so are an obvious choice for surf schools.

Bodyboard
Otherwise known as a 'boogie board'. They are small, more rectangular boards you lay on rather than standing. Used by a variety of age groups, one of the safest options for families in small waves. Made from polystyrene, foam, wood or fibreglass. They can be very cheap, and are a lot of fun.

Sand Skating Boards
Though technically not a surfboard, these flat wooden boards are used to skate along the wet sand of the ocean line. They are small and round. Just for fun and can be used by anyone.

*This is still the biggest wave ANYONE has ever surfed.

Numbah Nine day of Christmas, my tutu give to me...

Nine pound of poi,

eight ukulele, seven shrimp a-swimmin', seex hula lesson,

five beeg fat peeg,

foah flowah let, tree dry squid, two coconut,

An' one mynah bird in one papaya tree.

________________

Poi is a Hawaiian word for the primary Polynesian staple food made from the corm of the taro plant (known in Hawaiian as kalo). Poi is produced by mashing the cooked corm (baked or steamed) to a highly viscous fluid. Water is added during mashing and again just before eating, to achieve a desired consistency, which can range from liquid to dough-like (poi can be known as two-finger or three-finger, alluding to how many fingers you would have to use to eat it, depending on its consistency).

The bowl of poi was considered so important and a sacred part of daily Hawaiian life that whenever a bowl of poi was uncovered at the family dinner table, it was believed that the spirit of Haloa, the ancestor of the Hawaiian people, was present.

This is because Hawaiians believed that the taro plant, or kalo, was the original ancestor of the Hawaiian people.
