Can I join? I would love to start racking up on some review points. But I didn't quite get the club...Does someone have to request you to review, or can you review any submissions?

Flash/Audio authors give links to stuff they want extra reviews for.Folk join up to review those flashes.

Milinko makes a weekly list of all the requests that week, so you can just look at his lists and review all the new requests easily.

[Sic-Mic]

Hey could your review my audio?

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/view.php?id=1 882506

Preferably SSBM Master Hand (Fixed Remix). Thanks =]

[Abyssus]

So my review completetion rate had begun now? And to keep it up I have to complete all the reviews o the list? Brillaint, I guess I should start now.

[Abs55]

Hi, I would like to join this club because I need reviews for my flash work as it isn't getting much and I want some constructive critisism so I can improve in my future flash. Also, I want to help other flash artists who want reveiws. Please check my profile for my flash.

Here is my latest game, it is my third submission to newgrounds:

Lost in dimensions

Please review and rate! :)

Thanks

[Abyssus]

I finished reviewing some, I hate reviewing audio. So i skipped that and did all the flashes...Well, until later. Maybe on Sunday I will do the audio.
Anyway, I think I am going to enjoy this club. Get my ranks up.

[Abyssus]

Sorry for the double post.

The Fresh Life of Mr.Piff - done, The Silent Protagonist - done, An Ambiguous Short - done
All audio by Spiff- done, Sherbert the Cat Pat-Day- done, Tetris Unleashed 3 Prvw.- done, Rocket booster- done, lost in dimensions- done.

But I finished all pending reviews, and the newly requested one. Although, I forgot to put 'Review request club' at the bottem of some. Will this hurt my out-of score? Or is that just used as a bonus?

[Sic-Mic]

hey can you guys review my nintendo medley song on my audio page thnx lol

[Abs55]

just wondering do I have to wait until somebody says I am now a member or can I start reviewing and get points?

The latter. I mean, you reviewed them, right?

Well, as far as I know, apart from maybe Milinko, who's the 'leader-in-charge', there's nothing approaching an official greeter or whatever.

It's great to see new reviewers joining up and I suggest you both just start reviewing the flash/audio in Milinko's latest list.

I hope you all become regulars to the club!

[Abs55]

Thanks Bezman for clearing up my doubt. If I can I will be a regular.

I have started to review flash in Milinko's list. So far I have done, The silent protagonist and An ambiguous short. This means I have got 15 points so far right as I have reviewed two flashs so thats 10 and put review request club underneath so that is +2 and I have done atleast one review this week so +3 = 15 right?

I will do more reviews and add up my score each time.

[Kenzu]

Who is considered a regular? I don't review every day, but I do review from time to time. "regularly".

btw, could you maybe have a look at one of my flashes?
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/348238
Please review it and if you like it submit it please to MUSIC VIDEOS in toons and to POLITICS in collections) Thanks!

[Abs55]

I have reviewed tow more flashs: Sherbert the cat pat-day and Tetris unleashed 3 prvw. I had 15 points so now I have +10 for the reviews and +1 as I put review request club underneath but forgot for the other one so that is 26 points now.

I would recommend keeping track of your score on your own computer. You might notice that people don't usually post the scores that they think they should get on this thread. Just keep track on your own time. As for me I need to do some reviews or coop might take me back out of the top 3 in completion. I am going to be up all night though so it is the perfect time for me to spend some time messing with this. Nice way to blow about an hour.

[Emptygoddess]

Hello all *waves at anyone reading the post.* I recently submitted a slew of animations to newgrounds that people seemed to like decently well. Which is a big yay of course. And i got all kinds of reviews. Helpful ones that went in depth into what they liked and didn't like. Not helpful ones that claimed it was the best thing ever, which was still nice. The occasional ones that hated it, though those were generally even less helpful as they were often very hard to understand and didn't make much sense. The occasional baffling review that would say it was one of the greatest animations they'd ever seen, and then rate it a 5/10 (I can only assume those people are very hard to please) but the actually constructive and well thought out reviews, negative or positive i felt were very helpful.

So if you have some free time for any reason, I would love for you to look at my flash animations and give me feedback on what you think could have been done to improve them. They're all part of the same series, and rather long overall.

Common criticism so far involved... the screen being to small. It being to slow paced. It not being long enough (I think it's to long myself). Different occasional complaints about different voice actors. And the occasional statement that it sucked different body parts.

Here is the link to them.

Feel free to tell me you hate them. (or love them. Which is always preferable) But if you could tell me why, and what would be improved. That would be amazing.

Thank you all for your time.

[head2toewinner]

Alright like I said it took me about an hour to finish all of those reviews. I am now done and if my calculations are correct and nobody that is new comes in front of me and milinko completes them all like I expect then I should overtake HomerDough in completion percentage this week and be second. Problem is with the new people we have this week we could have 1 or 2 100%'s. What I am pretty sure about though is that those won't last for long and even if they do beat me this week I will come back and overtake them next week.

Alright everybody remember if you come to this thread to request a review you want to do it on a week where I am having an NGDD comp. Last week was a comp and we had like 4 requests. It was horrible and I was very sad. Anyway I have finished this weeks reviews completely and for some reason I am still having a problem with remebering to put "review request club" at the bottom of all my reviews.

I've reviewed each and every one, please leave me some responses, as that would make it all worthwhile.

Hm someones not trying to get onto the most responses to reviews list. Just kidding.

Hey milinko when is this weeks update coming? I wanna see how many reviews I gotta write this week and of course see my name in the "all requests completed" area.

[Freelance-Magician]

hey guys how's it been

[Gizmo-Hall]

Hey, I've submitted some audio and they've been without reviews for some time. I'd appreciate it if you'd take the time to review my audio.

Well, I'm already going to be on the most responses / least reviews list. 155/366 gives a decent percentage, and I'd like to pass Bahamut for the highest response rate top 10 entry as well.

Well, I was expecting it today, but I guess we've just got to wait a little while.

[Bezman]

Milinko - just to save you from counting my points - I did all reviews, posted once, giving me 61 points.

Total of 430.

If you're finding it hard to count everyone's points, maybe you could offer those 3 bonus points not for posting, but for reporting your own score? Or maybe 1 point for posting, 2 for tallying the score?

Agak! (wait - are you the same? I can't remember, it's been so long...)

Not bad. Working on my organisation.

Hmm...I'm not sure I like the idea as I would have to check to verify the scores anyway, which would be really annoying overall.

And wow, what a great week for this club, some good new members and a shit load of requests. It's going to be busy next week.

Thanks for the requests, I've got two outstanding, which I'll pick off over my lunch hour (In maybe 45 minutes or so)

Any chance you can arrange the new flash, old requesters into flash and audio subsections, milinko? Just makes things easier for me to spot the flash I've missed, as I'm not an audio bunny

5. Coop83: 275 | 42/59 71.19%

Thanks for the update, I'm going to try and get myself back to 75% over the next week - I'm still in pursuit of response #150. Just another 1 and I'm there!

Good idea, I will do that on the next update.

[KWAS71KCK]

Some very nice new/old flashes in those lists.

Plz be gentle, it's not supposed to be graphically amazing, it's just supposed to be silly. :) Thank in advance!

[TheCriminalDuder]

If it ain't too much trouble could someone review the flashes I's got out right now. They've had hundreds of views but only around 7-13 reviews. And the more advice I get the better I feel I can imrpove upon my work.

First Flash (Not That Good in my Opinion)

Second Flash (More Of A Promotional Video but is better.)

Thank yous for your time.

[Bezman]

Those Link shorts were fun to watch! (Though the screen was too small...)

I'll have completed all requests this week too.

There's not been as many requests this week. Maybe someone should make an advertisement flash for the club?

Here's a suggestion for a script:

(background instrumental music playing - all voices are speech bubbles)
scene 1 - Alan flashing furiously, with mouse and keyboard
scene 2 - Ben with giant headphones on, playing with a (musical) keyboard and making music.
scene 3 - Clare doing some voice-acting.
4 - showing submit pages, alternating between audio/flash submit pages...
5 - split-screen. All 3 folk looking at the monitor.
thoughts pop up in their head...
"why haven't folk rushed to review this yet?"
"Did anyone like it?"
"What did people think?"
"How could I improve?"
"Did I do anything right?"
"Why won't more people let me know!"
6 - (flashing between the 3 folk, as they scream, following a similar motion)
7 - text appears. Animation ends.
"Want more reviews?
Ask at the review request club!"
(review request club is a link to this page. There's also a replay button.)

I suppose that only addresses the author-side of it. Maybe we should have 2 flashes - one for authors, one for reviewers? Or should they be combined?

Anyway, let me know what you think of the script I posted above. It could perhaps be a cool little project to do together, even if it's just a case of folk putting little icons of themselves in to dance at the end, maybe someone else could make a pre-loader...

I have completed all the requests in milinko959's list. This includes Linkin Park MusicBoard, Asteroid Arcade V2.0, Star World(remix), Billy's Kid - Run around Sue, Bee Dodger, *Have A Nice Day*, SSBM Master Hand (remix), which didn't work so I reviewed the finished remix, Nintendo Medly (remix), Socialist European Union, The Legend of Link Part 1, 2, 3, 4 and How Badass is he? -T.L.L.

I didn't do lost in dimesnions as it is mine. I'll try to do the newly requested ones when I can.

Bezman, nice idea about the advert, would we do something like a collab? If this gets the go ahead, I 'll help as much as possible even though this probably won't be much.

Also, could someone review and vote on my two other games as well as Lost in dimensions. They are:

Ed's treasure
Unique Universe

I will reply to all reviews and all will be appriceated (spelt wrong).

By the way, in case milinko959 has hard time adding my scores up, i got 99 this week and add that to my previous score, it is 125 so far!
