Sorry I couldn't finish reviews, guys. I had a whole week's worth of exams the past few days and I have one in just 2 hours and another one tomorrow, had been studying for that yesterday and the day before.

And yet, when asked to do so, they don't.

Just so you might understand this: We get swamped with audio requests every week. Sometimes there are 20 or more audio requests, which can be really frustrating to see. Especially when all that gets requested is some Dubstep stuff, that I really don't care about. So if I see 20+ audio requests, the motivation to go through all this to review the stuff I actually like is fairly low. I have work to do, I have a dimploma thesis to write, I have a wife to care about, I have other interests besides newgrounds. And yet I try to get as many reviews done as I can (which sometimes isn't really that much, I give you that). But yelling at people they wouldn't provide reviews when they are asked to do so IS insulting, even though this might not have been your intention at all.

Yes, this club is rather slow and the amount of reviews could really be higher. But how can we get more reviews done if there aren't any active reviewers? I sure as hell don't care so much about newgrounds that I overhaul my complete life, just to review every single request. And I'm pretty sure other members feel the same way.

If you think this club is worthless, feel free to stay away from here.

First I would like to say to you personally, I appreciate your comments. Even though we have not spoken much in the past I have always seen you as a polite, friendly and affable person and a credit to the NG community and believe it or not I do respect your opinion. And that's not something I would say to many NG members.

Completely understandable.

I have work to do, I have a dimploma thesis to write, I have a wife to care about, I have other interests besides newgrounds. And yet I try to get as many reviews done as I can (which sometimes isn't really that much, I give you that). But yelling at people they wouldn't provide reviews when they are asked to do so IS insulting, even though this might not have been your intention at all.

Again, I can appreciate that not everyone, (in fact I doubt anyone) can or does spend as much time on Newgrounds as me. But this is The Review Request Club and surely more than 2 or 3 people could leave reviews when requests are made. And yes I know you have reviewed 1 or 2 of my Audio Tracks and I appreciate that. But I didn't Yell at anyone, it was more a polite (probably poorly worded) observation. If, as it seems is the case I offended anyone, I apologize, but as I put in my original post. But hey if you don't want to, don't bother.

Yes, this club is rather slow and the amount of reviews could really be higher. But how can we get more reviews done if there aren't any active reviewers?

This was one of the major things I was trying to point out. There doesn't seem to be but a handful of people reviewing when requested. I thought that the RRC was for people that enjoyed listening to and reviewing Audio (regardless of Genre) and also NG members that are Statistic oriented.

I sure as hell don't care so much about newgrounds that I overhaul my complete life, just to review every single request. And I'm pretty sure other members feel the same way.

Once again I fully understand what your saying, but I'm not asking you or anyone else to go through and review all of my Audio, but a couple of reviews at least would be nice.

If you think this club is worthless, feel free to stay away from here.

OK, I certainly don't think this Club is worthless and my 'Waste of time' comment was a little harsh I will admit that. I suppose frustration got the better of me. Maybe it would be an idea to have a Membership Drive to increase the RRC member numbers. I guess NG is evolving and things just aren't what they used to be.

My sincerest apologies to you and anyone else offended by my original post.

Sincerely, thank you for your input.

And well done SCTE3!

Seeing the little bout with gamejunkie and SkyeWintrest earlier on this page, I feel that I need to update the club rules quite a bit. So I while I update those sometime soon, may ask the rest of the club if any of you feel there might be other parts of the rules that need updating. I noticed one spot off the bat I really should update which is "getting 7 points for completing 100% reviews 2 weeks in a row". I feel it should be updated to 7 points for every week 100% review completion is reached since that is way more accurate.

I actually thought it was already like this. That you would gain 7 bonus points for each week you get 100%. I don't mind this. It seems like an extra push to review everything.


The Review Request club, the Blammers List (update every 15th), and the Protectors List (Update every 1st). My sig has it all.

Had I not been distracted by other people planning my life around their goals, I would have achieved 100% as well. Ho hum.

Oh well, it was a decent week and I managed over 75%, which was nice. Given that I've hit form for reviewing, I'd like to carry this on as soon as possible.

And half of the requests this week are in the form of Flash / Art. That helps, so lets see if I can claw my way back to 50% once again...

Hey guys,

I'm completely burnt out on this one and need a fresh perspective to tell me what needs changing on this track, any constructive critism is welcome.

Hello Review Request Club - Team!

I have created a classical and very virtuouse pianopiece for 4 hands. Its extremely fast and crazy and inspired of the ennio morricone movie-soundtrack "The Legend of 1900", thats why i called it "Piano Madness I. It would be an honour if you could review the submission :D

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Am I just unlucky enough to put in a request before everyone gets lazy? :(

I can always try, right?

I just submitted my animation for the novice round of the NATA competition. I didn't realize how long it was going to be until I began animating. I tried cutting out all of the unnecessary parts, but there was still so much to do. I managed to get it done on time though, despite Flash bugging out on me several times. Maybe someone could review the storytelling parts of it, as well as how I might improve the quality of the animation?
