Hey: a question.
Is it like, against anything to send MULTIPLES of an email to Strong bad? To like, boost the chance of your email getting picked a bunch?

I don't think so, and I've done that before. Never got it answered :(

Hmm. WAIT: I think I remember seeing something in the FAQs on the stie about this. Imma check it out, cause if I can, I'm sending fifty emails to them a day.

Fifty? Wow, and I felt slightly ashamed when I sent one of mine thrice. :blush:

They probably have spam controls, or will block your email address.

I mean, think about it. What if you saw 50 emails a day from the same kid, and each of the emails was exactly the same? Unless you found the email funny, you'd probably just delete them all, if you didn't delete them all without reading one first.

It doesn't increase your chances of getting your email answered, just getting it noticed - and really, it may only be noticed one time before they block your email address.

Well I mean realisticly though, TBC gets thousands of Strong Bad emails a day. It's NOT LIKE they check them all.
But if they do block your email adress then I'm going to have to create a new adress...

From the Late Nite Jengajam interview:

The other way not to get it multiple, sending it multiple times. Anytime you see, if I see an email that sent fifty times, or even six times, I just delete all six of them without reading them. Like, you're cheating. You only get one chance.

Thanks a bunch! :)
That answers my question. Just hope that they haven't blocked my email address or something cause I sent them like twenty of one particular email.
