So I've got this new Tower Defence game going, called "Protect the Shed". If you want to play just PM me and I'll add you to the Beta testers list.
I'll add you to the "non-credited" list (which includes beta testers); so far, I have 2 beta testers:
1) Zanzlanz
2) Asandir
3) Bilalz
4) SCTE3
5) Kanon
6) Alex616
Instructions:
» Arrow keys to move
» Point n' click to shoot (like a gun)
» S and D to increase/decrease grenade delay
» Buy weapons and upgrade them in the menu.
I'm trying to aim for a game style similar to "Pothead Zombies" even though I know I'm nowhere near that level.
Here's another teaser in-game, two panels separated:

Gimmick: What brought you here, on Newgrounds?
Asandir: Well, I played Toss the Turtle on Newgrounds from time to time, by searching for online games around 2009, I stumbled across it again in December 2010 and simply wanted to keep the medals and also to earn alot more of them from other games. My first account ever on an internet site, and Asandir arrived. Although I would later start to use the forums regularly.
Gimmick: I noticed you have a rather large post count. I'd have the same, if I didn't quit, but I quit for a reason. What was your incentive to continue posting, and posting so fast at that?
Asandir: Well, as some might know, I only started to post actively in March 2011. I thought that I should make up for the days that I missed posting. That plan was succesful and now my pace is toned down a bit, but still pretty fast. I just like to post.
Gimmick: What would you consider your best achievement on NG?
Asandir: Well, that is a really good question. The first thing that came to mind is my Gold whistle, since it is not easy to get one, it takes alot of time and dedication.
Apart from that, I am very proud that people elected me as Rookie of the mid-year 2011.
Gimmick: Okay then, I've heard you got the trial version of flash. What do you plan to do with it?
Asandir: Well, I downloaded it on Clock Day 2011, so that I could pass through some badly made Clock Day submissions for fun. I have no further plans to use flash in any form, I am not interested in it.
Gimmick: Any regrets you have on NG, parts where you could've improved on, stuff like that?
Asandir: I highly regret my childish behaviour on the days after the Canas incident, where I left Newgrounds for around 3 hours( * add pre-taped laughter here) and made alot of people sad. Needless to say that it is even worse since the damage has been completely restored for everyone, besides Canas.
Gimmick: One last question: What do you use to create art, for example the sigs you created?
Asandir: Well, for the 3D art, I use the 3D program Sculptris, where you form some kind of 3D clay, pretty easy to use.
For the signatures, I use PhotoFiltre and most times fonts from flamintext.com. I used a Newgrounds wallpaper as base for my own signature, additionally.
Gimmick: Thanks for the interview. Any conclusions?
Asandir: Yes, I want to thank you :)

The perpetrator has finally gone, Canas has got his account back, but it seems that he was a victim of identity theft or something. He's demodded for now, but in the end, apart from the whistles, no damage was done. Still, that's no fault of him, so that should stop any whiners / haters, or at least inform them. Still, to all of those who have garbage whistles; post in the comments, I'll add you to the list, and whenever I find an abusive review, I'll pm you guys and flag it.
You can opt out whenever you want.

For those of you who didn't know, Canas's account has been hacked. This is a terrible tragedy, since it means many, many users who flagged abusive reviews just lowered their whistle points terribly, more so when they actively did it.
Not only that, but the hacker also had the tenacity to perma-ban everyone who recently wrote reviews, including me.
deckheadtottie has kindly offered to remove those tags under inspection of said reviews and ban notices; just PM him if you've been hit. I did, but then I found out I was permabanned again, by (wait for it) Canas's account controller. (Since I know the real operator of Canas wouldn't do such a thing)
Anyways, on to the victim list; if you've been hit, please report so in the comments, and I'll add you onto the list, depending on what grounds. Hopefully this will be proof enough for restoration in the late future.
UPDATE: ALL THE REVIEW BANS HAVE BEEN LIFTED, REPOST YOUR REVIEWS! The perpetrator has gone and the real canas is back! See the "moderator hacked?" thread in general for more info!
~~~ VICTIM LIST ~~~
This is a list of people who were affected by the hacking of Canas's account; may be updated at will.

I'm a bit too late for this, but I realized clock day was over. This year was probably the only Clock Day I celebrated; it seems I was inactive for these two years, so in reality, my join date is only around 2010 or so, since I used all the features of NG only from 2010.
Nevertheless, I am still pretty happy about my 2008 tag, gives me a sense of (false?) achievement; back to topic, I submitted 2 clock day flash, and that's good enough for a person who does things on his own. I could've collaborated with people to get 11 more clock day flash, but no, I'm not cheap enough for that.
However, I've noticed something. Every day, the flash that I submitted for Clock Day is going down, probably due to the haters located around my userpage; I've seen collaboration flashes such as this increase their score every day. I don't know why, it seems like an inverted world, where the ones with effort go down in score and the ones with the least effort get high scores.
Seems like people just don't understand Clock Day's over, however I can't do anything about it, just rant and rave. Go on, 0 vote those two flash that I put effort into. I don't care.
