Submissions that haven't been reviewed yet:

It'd be great if we could get these reviewed. If any member reviews any of them then tell me and I'll give him/her his/her deserving points

Yay, quadruple post...

Ouch, I'm not going to lie, this isn't such a good update. 4 submissions were left without a review, the stats are low and we've lost two members, spartacusxerox on request and ChampionAnwar due to inactivity. Almost half of the members were inactive, and less than a third managed to do a good amount of reviews, unfortunately. Fro, Animith and mrty, all very good reviewers, are unfortunately getting closer to the limit of inactivity before they get removed from the club. Hate to be the bearer of bad news :(.

The gap between Coop83 and Haggard is getting smaller though. Coop83 only has a few more points to regain his rank of first place in the list.

Anyway, that's about it. Let's hope the club's luck gets a bit better in the following weeks!

Oh, and this is my fifth consecutive post, and I'll have to make a sixth to post the club info in the new page too. That's like the second largest post combo I've seen in the NG BBS. D:

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!

Yeah, sorry for sounding like such a douche, it just needed to be said. It just feels frustrating to ask for reviews and only get one, thought I feel that Coop83 felt a bit targeted or something, since he got a boost at reviewing audios(or at least mine...)

Again, sorry for the rudeness, I know you're all doing your best.
Heck, I might even give hand if I find the time, As I enjoy reviewing myself!

Hmmm, i'm not sure if you editing my total from last week had anything to do with this but I actually did 15 reviews from last weeks list(4 flash, 5 audio, 6 art). So it should look like:

Just trying to straighten things out before I start reviewing this weeks list. Are we going to do the update this monday or just wait until next sunday/monday so we have a week and a half?

This has become a real problem in the last couple of weeks. Everyone is going back to school and there are very few members left because of that. I'll try and review everything on the list this time but even then other people will have to take time to review audio and not just the flash stuff.

Nah, you weren't being rude, you were just offering feedback; nothing wrong with that ^^. We don't want to be the only people who criticize round here :P.

That's weird. Could've sworn I wrote down the right amount... Well as I said, in the transition from OpenOffice to normal Microsoft Office, some formulae could've been messed up. That, or I should stop doing the update so late...

Fixed now :). I'm going to be extra careful when updating from now on, but I'd like to ask everyone else to keep an eye on their scores for a little while, if possible. I want to make sure a formula wasn't messed up since Animith has OpenOffice and I don't.

Are we going to do the update this monday or just wait until next sunday/monday so we have a week and a half?

Probably a week and a half, so no rush ^^.

Thanks for the update, Steph. Nice work, as always.

I am trying to provide reviews for all art and all flash submissions, with a few audio if I have time to spare now. We'll see if we can review all of these requests.

As long as you don't type the whole list in source code style it's all good. :P

Flash Requests (6)
Audio Requests (25)
Art Requests (1)

6 flash and 1 art review shouldn't be too hard. So that means I should have time to review some of the audio requests.

Well, I do the best I can to defend the number 1 spot ("Who is number one?", damn, I have been watching "The Prisoner" too much lately), but there's too much stuff going on right now (working, studying and playing Fallout 3) so that means less time to do some reviews.

That would be great. We are in need of some reviewers as you may have noticed. I just had a look at your reviews and they look good to me. So, if you have the time, feel free to join this club and review away. :)

Thanks a couple months in advance.

This first song is a Dubstep Remix of a song from the BBC's educational kids TV show, Look and Read.

I'm extremely proud of it.

The second, I'm not quite as proud of, but it's well worth a listen, it inspired me to create the previous remix.
