It is under club updates section of the club FAQ. Sorry if the one on this page is hard to read. When I posted it the rich text messed up the spaces.
I only got two reviews done today. I'll try to get the rest done tomorrow. Really want that 100 % this week.
please review... i respond!!
can you request reviews for collabs or do they need to be solo work?
It's from a Sega Genesis Mega Man game (The wily wars) in an unlockable. I remixed it in 8-bit.
Enjoy!

Damn, that's gonna be a tough one.
This one's unfinished guys but I put a lot work behind it. I only had two months so... there it is.
NOTE - READ THESE RULES, EVEN IF YOU HAVE ALREADY READ THE RULES IN THE FIRST POST. THEY ARE AN UPDATED VERSION OF THE RULES IN THE FIRST POST AND THEY HAVE NEW IMPORTANT RULES!
Hello! Welcome to the new Review Request Club thread. This thread is meant to give the club a fresh start and make it a pleasant place to stay. In order to do this, it goes without saying that you must follow the regular BBS rules and read the C&C Advice Thread before posting if you are new to this forum.
This club aims to increase the exposure of the most under-rated Newgrounds music, art and flash artists. The other major purpose of the club is to offer the Newgrounds artists high quality feedback so they can constantly improve their work.
To the requesters:
Every Newgrounds user is allowed to request a review as soon as he submitted something. To get your work reviewed, don't post here without thinking but follow these few rules:
- Post a direct link to the submission(s) you want reviewed.
- Make no more than 3 Flash and Art requests between two updates (that's one week), and no more than 3 Audio Requests between 5 updates (that's four weeks).
- Please respond to reviews, reviewers like it and some of them are statwho... oh wait, interested in stats.
- Be patient. Due to the points system, you may not see reviews until up to two weeks after you requested, or if you requested more than 1 Audio submission, you may not see reviews on your second submission up until 3 weeks after you requested, and you may not see reviews on your third submission up until 4 weeks after you requested.
- Do NOT request without posting a link, be kind, reviewers are not robots.
- Do NOT simply say "Review everything" or just link to your profile.
- Do NOT request reviews for the same submission more than once.
- Do NOT request reviews for a submission with over 50 reviews.
- Do NOT request reviews for spam. Spam is only there to annoy, not to be critically analyzed.
- Unless you are a club member, only request reviews for YOUR OWN submissions.
To the reviewers:
If you want to join the club and complete requests, simply post in the thread saying you would like to join. Then, regular members will go through your reviews and determine if they are good enough to be part of the club. Your reviews are required to be helpful, developed and well-organised. If you need help with writing good reviews, read Fro's guide to writing helpful reviews.
Once you are accepted, you can start reviewing stuff. If you are a new member of the club, once you understand how the point system works, please post - one or two days before the update - the total points you've earned during the week. This is considered as a sort of application form, and if you fail to do so, you will NOT be added to the club.
Points System:
List updaters will keep track of each member's points in order to build a list. You don't need to post your points before each update but you can keep track of your score on your own so any error can be fixed. This is how points are counted:
5 points for a review on a requested submission (movie, game, art, or audio).
1 point for writing "Review Request Club" at the bottom of a requested review.
3 points for posting at least once throughout the two weeks.
5 points for referring a new member (must mention you in first post).
7 points for reviewing all requests/recommendations between two updates.
Club Updates:
Each Sunday or Monday, a list of all the members is created, counting up their points, featuring various stats and posting a list of requested submissions. Assuming you review the submissions in that list, you will get points for them accordingly in the following members' update, around a week later.
Don't forget the lists are built and updated by humans so it may be possible the update is delayed due to various real life reasons. If it ever occurs, don't get mad; calm down and wait :).
Frequently Asked Questions:
Should we have an FAQ?
I don't know. It kinda seems like overkill.
Why a new thread?
The main idea was to give the club a new and fresh start. Since the old one was flooded by requests and not updated any more, the RRC regulars thought creating a new thread would be best for the club.
Should I link to the club in my forum signature?
There's no obligation to do so, but it's certainly appreciated. Remember that you can put a high number in place of the page number in the URL and if that page doesn't exist yet, Newgrounds will take you to the latest page, whatever it is. For example, "http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/107 2042/999" will take you to the latest page of this club.
RRC Signature?
Yes, at the end of each review, if you want you can write down 'Review Request Club'. There is no obligation to do so, but you'll get +1 point if you put the RRC signature in your review. You can add anything you want to it, E.G.: *Review Request Club*, |Review Request Club|, -Review Request Club-, etc, but as long as 'Review Request Club' is clearly written, you will get the point. You are also allowed to add the sig in any reviews other than requests in this club, as long as you are a club member yourself. It's all the more exposure for the club, and it's very much appreciated.
+1 point if I put the RRC signature in my review... I'm not sure if I get it correctly.
You gain 6 points for a review on a request with "Review Request Club" in the end of it, as opposed to 5 points if you hadn't added the signature at the end. If it's still not clear, read this.
Does the Review Request Club review for non-NG stuff?
No. It must be an NG submission. If you have a non-NG submission which you would like us to review, then use your common sense and upload it to NG. Also, we will only review using the 'Write a Review' method on submissions. We won't send reviews by PM, review in your newspost or review in any particular thread of yours.
Do I have to review all the requests?
No you don't have to, just do your best :). Though completing them all will give you 7 extra points.
Which requests should I review?
If you want to get points for the next member's update, look for the latest requests list in the club thread and review the requests from that list. If you review any requests from various posts in the thread which would have been posted after the latest requests list, you will be getting points for the member's update after the next one.
can u review allz mah flashz guise? kthxbai.
No.
If you have more questions, feel free to post about it in the thread or PM a member and if your question is frequently asked, it'll be added to the FAQ.

That's all about the club, though this new version of the club couldn't be opened without mentioning the old thread regulars who have made it a great place to spend time. Kudos to Freelance-Magician for creating the original club and to milinko959 for maintaining it for so long. Thanks also to Sonofkirk for starting this new thread and doing many updates.
Have fun!

Okay, went back and did 10 of the audio that didn't recieve a review last week. I'm pretty sure there are a couple that still haven't recieved a review from anyone but I really need to get some of the requests from this list done before the update. It would be bad if we ended up getting into a cycle where we miss a lot of requests.

DAMMIT! meant to request this one yesterday!
http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/up-a-
notch/the-smart-one
Wow. Have had lots of tests and labs and tutorials that are worth course marks. It's not funny, so I got 0 reviews in this week. But hopefully this week is a 100%.
OH, I almost
forgot:
Another one for the
fellazzzzz!!!!
OK, that was just
inappropriate.
Yeah.
Update time!
This is the last update from me as Steph is either back today or at some point in the week so you can say goodbye to random update mistakes :P
We had a pretty good week; every request got a review and thanks to the fanciful workings of soap, haggard, sixflab and thepigeonmaster, a fair few of the flash and audio got three requests each, so the average per request is a lot better than last week. And sixflab also managed to go back and give 9 of the unreviewed requests a review, which is pretty damn awesome. Extra grats to sixflab, who hit it out of the park with 100% requests done. With our tiniest list in months this week maybe we'll see a few more people hit 100% by next update :P
Without further ado, member update #51.

Yep, I'm back from Australia. Thanks for the update, Animith; you forgot to add the stars next to the members' names but heck, not much of a problem there :P.
Sucks that there were so many inactive members this time but now that I'm back I'll try and help out with a few reviews, despite all the work I have to do. Summer holidays end in another month here in Malta so I have time, hopefully.
Anyway, good luck to everyone this week!

Hot damn, I can't let sixflab run off. Gotta get 100 % this week. I HAVE TO.
Too bad I've got school everyday, as well as work tomorrow, thursday, friday and saturday.

Well, I only got 3 reviews done again... but at least I did a few reviews. There are way too many inactive members right now, hopefully it does pick up again a bit next week. :/

I'm sorry for my inactivity. For some reason I can't attach to one thing for a long time, be it a martial arts class or simply keeping a diary. I eventually start forgetting about it. I'll do my best to stay active and help the people, nonetheless.
I also realized that I enjoy reviewing art the most, but the amount of art requests are insufficient. There has to be a way to increase the amount.

Well, now that you had 100%, you can request a review on a random piece of art for next week.
At 8/23/10 05:56 PM, Soapbubble wrote: Well, now that you had 100%, you can request a review on a random piece of art for next week.
The only problem with that is I haven't browsed the art portal in a while for anything i'd like to review. Plus the list is already up so it would be for the next one anyways.
