Only six left now, but the MLG Raleigh SC2 finals start now, so I'll be watching those, and sleeping afterwards. Like I said, I'm hoping you can push the update a day, Steph, seeing as SCTE3 has a problem doing the update with a busy schedule, and the same goes for me.

I'll move the update to Tuesday and I can delay a little longer if need be.

Hey again, you guys can remove my Ropey Rick flash request from the list. I don't think I need feedback as much as I did earlier, but I still love what you guys are doing, reviews are awesome :D

I'm back from the dead. Also This is wrong. I definitely had some reviews up (albeit only a few).

Sorry for not answering earlier.

I'm not seeing them. I've checked your Flash, Music and Art reviews and none are on the submissions in this list.

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 FattyWhale for maintaining it for so long. Thanks also to Sonofkirk for starting this new thread and doing many updates.

Have fun!

fmllpmw By dontpanic01 seems to have been deleted. Anyone able to confirm that?

All right finished it all up, bring the update whenever you want :P

Think I'm gonna go review some flash instead :>

I'll see if I can't find some underexposed flash ^^

I apologize to everyone who had reviewed my previous request "Sea of Destiny." I have been busy lately but I will get all your reviews written.

Indeed, nothing uncommon though, some of them requests get deleted after we make a review for them, oh well.

Luckily no one reviewed mine before it was deleted lol. I accidentley deleted my submission... ignoring the, "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE THIS?!" message... TWICE. Man im a dumbass.

Anyway, here is the NEW submission I would love to have reviewed if some of you would have the time. I already have an insane amount of feedback on it, but it has less than 50 reviews so I thought hey, why not?

P.S. Im thinking of getting back into this club again... I need to start reviewing stuff some more.

Still didn't find the time to do some reviews. Shame. So Steph, if you want to do the update, do it.

Well, illness notwithstanding, that was just an awful week. Now I've not got much time to make this one any better, so I'd better get cracking.

If you guys could give me some feedback on my latest tunes, it would be much appreciated :)

I think we have a couple but I ask for more on the list so we can start trying to even out the list a bit so that flash+art is about half as much as the audio requests.

Oh, okay. I still request a review for my flash? :D

Anyway, I now got about 50% of the list done. I finally found some free time (ie I booted up linux on my PC, so I wouldn't distract myself with Baldurs Gate II, lol) and got some reviews done. :)

Ugh, may not get many reviews done this week, if any. Outskirts of hurricane knocked out my power until today, and I have less than 3 hours to get them done today, assuming I have power at home at this point. Before that the moderator issue with Canas...

Sorry. I'll try to get some done next week, I guess. :|

Because I can't draw for shit, let's have some Art requests:

Hey guys, I was wondering if you could review this? Haven't requested anything in a long while.

Phew, almost forgot about updating. Thanks for the PM reminder SCTE3 xP.

While this update isn't as good as previous ones, it's still a pretty great update. Quite a few members did a good amount of reviews - good job to Coop, Haggard, XsakuX, sontuk, Xenophaje and especially Soapbubble and SCTE3 for continuing their massive 100% streaks. SkyeWintrest had to lose his 100% streak but in all fairness it wasn't really his fault :c.

No members gained or lost, and no sigs forgotten. The stats are good - we haven't passed 5.00 Average Per Request like we did last time but even though 2 less people managed 100%, a lot of members did more reviews than they did last time so we still managed to get it past 4.00. The maximum amount of RRC reviews on one request was 6 which is pretty darn good. There were a few more inactive members this time, unfortunately.

Not much to mention regarding milestones. We're 3 weeks away from the 100 updates milestone, and Coop and Haggard are getting pretty close too 8,000 total points. A good job to them for keeping their total ratio above 50%. Haggard did more reviews and is therefore catching up with Coop, however :P.

Good luck this week, and great job everyone. Enjoy the update.

GUIDELINES/THREAD INFO

Oh well. Unfortunate about this week. :| At least I can give part of a song to review for next week, I won't say that it'll happen, but I actually think that there's a good chance this is about to make top 5 of the week, even as a WIP. I'm planning on having it be 6-8 minutes long, at least, and it's going to be collaborative with another person, RunningShadows.

Thanks for the update, Steph! Seems like I'm not really catching up with you, even with this 100% streak I've got going since I joined now.

Possibly one of the most balanced weeks I've ever seen, now. Lots of art and flash, and not too much audio. Gonna get started right away :>

Well, I'd only say it was 22 requests, which looks better. We're judged on the percentage of reviews, compared to the requests, without the extras thrown in as well, so it's more balanced that you think ;)

Flash Requests (5)
Audio Requests (12)
Art Requests (5)

Alright, I can get 10 reviews done no problem, then a single audio gives me 50%, so I'll aim higher than that!
