      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Please take a moment to fill out this &lt;a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=zGBHDUTbkIL5j5bgCkzsYQ_3d_3d"&gt;store survey!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We were happy to see that people actually LIKED filling out the last survey, so we figured collecting some feedback / suggestions / data on the store would be really helpful.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://luis.newgrounds.com"&gt;Luis&lt;/a&gt; has posted &lt;a href="http://www.brainwashstudios.com/ng-wizardworld-2009.html"&gt;Wizard World photos!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Monthly voting has started for Best of June! Check your account options page to see if you are part of the voting pool this month and if so, VOTE!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Be sure to check out the latest Reemus adventure, it launched today!&lt;br /&gt;

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1030266"&gt;Real Silent Hill Meetup&lt;/a&gt; is happening today and tomorrow! If you live near Centralia, PA, you can come visit a town with an ever-burning mine fire and hang out with a bunch of local NG folks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you live in Boston, check out the &lt;a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1039166/1"&gt;Boston meetup thread.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We've been watching the Art Portal and making changes to fine-tune it. Please note that works in progress and pencil sketches should only be showcased on your user page and not included in the public Art Portal listing. You also now need at least four submissions before you are eligible for scouting and approved artists can only scout two users per day at the moment, so use those scouts wisely!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/powerofthree/"&gt;Power of Three&lt;/a&gt; summer event is ongoing and there are some amazing games in the works! HappyHarry and Egoraptor have been at the office this past week working on art for their games. Afro-Ninja was here for a few days developing the engine for his game with Ego. The-Swain was here as well, fleshing out plans with PsychoGoldfish and Liljim, also visiting this week. I'll be emailing all the teams when we're ready to take the next big step forward. For now, keep plugging away so you have the potential for some good teaser screenshots!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Over 8,500 people filled out &lt;a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=nhstfx_2f8on0q9ohkE0I_2fcw_3d_3d"&gt;the survey!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are some glimpses of data from the people who answered:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Male: 95.9%&lt;br /&gt;
Female: 4.1%&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Age&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Under 16: 28.8%&lt;br /&gt;
16-17: 26.8%&lt;br /&gt;
18-24: 38.7%&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Game Consoles&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Xbox 360: 45.6%&lt;br /&gt;
PS3: 21.1%&lt;br /&gt;
Wii: 50.5%&lt;br /&gt;
DS: 60.5%&lt;br /&gt;
PSP: 32.2%&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In other news, ThoseSneakyFrench has been putting together quite the &lt;a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1059542/1"&gt;NG computer case!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;I paid $200 to use a REAL survey website, so please end our curiosity and &lt;a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=nhstfx_2f8on0q9ohkE0I_2fcw_3d_3d"&gt;FILL OUT THIS SURVEY.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also my apologies to Rob for bumping his &lt;a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1072217"&gt;Art Portal announcement&lt;/a&gt; post. I wasn't going to, but everyone was giving me a hard time for not posting the following plug:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have a booth at the Wizard World convention in Philadelphia this weekend! If you come by the Philly convention center today or tomorrow, you can meet Egoraptor, MindChamber, Luis, Stamper, JohnnyUtah, Swain, HappyHarry, Liljim, Afro-Ninja, Tomamoto, SardonicSamurai, Jonas, 36Holla, and all sorts of other fine NG folks!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today our booth was visited by guys like &lt;a href="http://chakra-x.newgrounds.com/"&gt;Chakra-X&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://absent.newgrounds.com/"&gt;Absent!&lt;/a&gt; Many more NG regulars will be popping up tomorrow, we are booth 402, on the right as you enter.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don't forget to &lt;a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=nhstfx_2f8on0q9ohkE0I_2fcw_3d_3d"&gt;FILL OUT THIS SURVEY.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
