I get tired of the sun over here :P. I mean, it never snows. How boring is that? O.o. But still, I suppose I can't complain about sunny days :D.

It's 12.17 AM here.

1:00 AM here now, so we must be in the same timezone.

Hm... your reviews are alright, but they seem a little rushed to me. You say stuff like 'the animation, while below par, was still entertaining enough to keep my attention.' and then quickly skip to "The sound effects used were a good choice" without mentioning why or where in the flash was the animation below par.

Try and elaborate more on the points you make about a submission, and make your review a bit more detailed, split into paragraphs, etc...

Taken from Fro's guide to writing helpful reviews, I think you should split your reviews into different sections: Animation/Graphics, Concept/Storyline/Gameplay (if it's a game) and Audio. Give each section a little bit of detail, giving your criticism and opinions on each topic and saying what can be improved and how to improve it. Stuff like this could easily make your reviews more detailed and helpful.

You could even go with a simple structure of saying what you liked about a submission in one paragraph, what you disliked in another and how to improve the submission in another. Or you could just invent a good structure yourself or something. My point is, try and give your reviews a bit more detail.

You're free to review the requests of the latest requests list and posting your points when you feel that you've reviewed enough requests for the week to be officially added to the club, but try and give a bit more detail in your reviews :).

Nah, you only forgot one. Anwar forgot the other :3.

Well, snow is nice, it is, but most of the time we get a combination of snow and rain, or just snow that melts away after a day. Gotta drive for a few hours to get to the good snow. And we barely ever get sun at all. Today was considered a good day, with loads of wind, and some rain during the day. And a bit cloudy. That's nice weather.

I guess. Norway is in GMT+1, I think.

Steph's just making sure it's on the top of every page, so that requesters and reviewers alike will stay up-to-date on it.

Congrats Soapbubble. How on earth do you manage to review every single request in detail? Every time I review a spam flash and give it a 0 without writing a helpful review (it doesn't deserve one, you know), it gets removed. I can't see how I can write a helpful review to a spam flash...

Yep, that's much better, keep up those reviews and you'll make a fine member ^^.

Don't forget to post your points and if you have any questions which aren't covered in the club info just PM one of the members or ask in the thread (don't PM me though, I'll be abroad).

Good luck reviewing!

Discipline, brotha!
Nah, I just had some time off. Can't go out at night because of work, so I'm stuck at home with nothing to do except for Newgrounds and MW2. Writing helpful on spam flashes isn't easy, but you don't have to be very detailed when it comes to them. Just make sure you don't write osmething that can be flagged as abusive.

Both Coop and me now have completed 1,000 Reviews for this club (plus the one we already completed for the old club). Amazing. I was hoping to review some flashes as well, but it's way too hot here lately (30°C and more) so it's hard to focus on reviewing when your brain is just melting away.

It really isn't that bad. We're a couple of reviewers now so all requests will get one review each. I've already done all flash and art, so I've got the 19 audio reviews left, and that shouldn't be a problem.
