Anyway I'm just taking a little break. Just a couple of days to have some nice numbers on my profile. I will continue soon and see if I can get myself to 600 or so. At the same time I might wanna review some audio's so that the ratio between them will look a little better.

I know what you mean about the ratio - I'm sure mine will sort itself out via the RRC, then actually give me more audio reviews than Flash Reviews. I think this year as a whole, I've still gotten more Flash reviews done than Audio.

I myself am trying to aim for more flash reviews than audio reviews. Preferably something close to a 3:1 ratio, but at the moment it's like 11:3 or so.

The problem I am having is that I'm not too good with giving feedback on audio. I just don't know shit about FL and other similar programs and I'm not a musician myself either. So usually all I can say is whether I liked it or not, but after several dozens of reviews like that it starts to feel like spamming to me.

I'm just waiting to see the Art reviews as a stat. I think I've got to be getting close to the 100 mark.

Meh. I think I got about 3 art reviews at the moment, but I really don't care about the Art Portal tbh. I haven't been there for weeks.

Top 2000 in exp. (this counts right?)

Finally at 39, just a couple short of top 400 exp as well.

I don't really have an ear for things as beat, melody and harmony I think. I can hardly hear the difference between what's good and decent and I guess it's also a matter of taste. Only if it's really awful then I'll notice, but otherwise I can only say if I liked it or not.

But I think the easiest ones to review for me are video game songs of games that I have played. At least I can compare it to the original and say whether I liked it more or not and why.

Ya it does. It was a small chain by abercrombie and fitch, now you may think that it's preppy and all that shit that goes along with A&F but it's the first time they have produced a store that i think has something unique to offer :::New York City styled cloths::: the branding is perfect. Meaning that thers no promotion of th brand on there clothing. Much higher quality and a higher price. I think people were just not going to pay for things so high when other stores are much less? 100$ for a average pair of jeans 40$ for the average t-shirt. Not too bad for the quality.

you should go to the site, thy have opened it up to international sales. They have alot of good things on the site left it you want to take a look. Ruehl.com

Man, Steam has had so much trouble since the update was launched. I shouldn't be too surprised as the war was really exciting and they added so much awesome stuff to the game that it probably made their servers explode. O_O

I don't really have an ear for things as beat, melody and harmony I think. I can hardly hear the difference between what's good and decent and I guess it's also a matter of taste. Only if it's really awful then I'll notice, but otherwise I can only say if I liked it or not.

Fair enough - I remember the most detailed reviews I used to leave were for the Jason submissions, which in my eyes sucked balls. Something that needs a lot of feedback is not necessarily the best. Now it's almost second nature, due to the Review Request Club

But I think the easiest ones to review for me are video game songs of games that I have played. At least I can compare it to the original and say whether I liked it more or not and why.

Fair enough. There are some good video game tunes out there, so you should have no problem writing a fair few Audio Reviews.

Well if you don't' want to do that, you could do something tacky like hang a mirror on the ceiling. O.o

Yeah, because the first thing my girlfriend wants to see every morning that she wakes up is my hairy arse :P

We had nothing but snow here.

It's kinda funny that me and my gf can't go anywhere at the moment with only 2 inches of snow :p

Yeah I guess if I was still a member of the Review Request Club it might have been easier. I remember I used to read back reviews of other members first to see what they had to say. Not that I wanted to copy their reviews, but at least I got an idea of what I could pay attention to.

But I think the easiest ones to review for me are video game songs of games that I have played. At least I can compare it to the original and say whether I liked it more or not and why.

I think it's one of the most represented genres in the audio portal. And it's easy to find Zelda, Mario and Final Fantasy covers; games which I have played a lot in the past. So reviewing only those is no problem.

New gaming rant: Nintendo Adverts starring Ant & Dec. I guess you could call it half-game rant, half-celebrity rant but it still counts as a gaming rant in my book.

Listening to:

Manowar - Battle Hymns. HEY THERE!

Weather has been very cold and snowy the last few days. Only problem is that I hate snow. ^^

How could you hate snow? And why can't I have more snow?

I'm not sure how it'd work for you but it can work well for others. Sanjay for favourite indian, BlueHipoo for favourite hippo (duh), ThePigeonMaster for favourite pigeon and Poozy for favourite crane operator or mod to take the piss. :P I could go on all day doing this.

And I would be the most favorite happy user? :P

No, favourite Manowar fanatic. :P

Exactly! You could nominate lots of character from obscure games and it could get in the tournament right away. Well, that's still better than what GameFUCKs do.

GameFAQs tournaments aren't so predictable as one might think. Or esle I would perform better than I acutally do. ^^

You can easily tell who's going to do well, though. Just watch as either Cloud or Link takes the tournament AGAIN! Well, that's unless there's a raid on the contest. It already happened to Gamespot's contest and hell, even the Christmas No 1 chart raid worked so it's possible for GameFAQs.

Here's hoping that was just a one-off.

Here's hoping he continues doing it.

No, we need to see more happy faces.

Yes, he said he would and he must. XD

Yeah, we just demand that he does it, so he cannot bail out! ^^

Well, he caught up on the last posts at least.

I said shit more than you said awesome so I win this round.

Nope. Awesome is such an awesome word that you'd have to say "shit" 3 times to cancel out one "awesome".

Ok then, shit shit shit shit shit shit.

Oh yeah, I see now. Maybe your sig could have used more exposure; you might need to spam some more. Well, at least Hascev was on the same page for awhile.

Well, if one popular regular user follows, then surely the rest will.

Dog from Duck Hunt is going to be the obvious winner. :)

Sounds fair to me. :P

You have plenty of time. Infact, considering I'll have to get someone to look at the inside of my laptop in the new year, I'll have to delay the contest, so extra time to nominate for everyone. :)

Also, gfoxclock is today's UOTD in NG Logs.

Awesome, now his alts are getting UOTD just like mine. :)

Adding to that, it was a free weekend, so the servers should have been a little more overloaded than usual. And their staff must be having their Holiday break as well, so...

Yeah, it was hectic. I guess they underestimated how many people would be playing TF2 over the weekend. I feel sorry for those who struggled to play the game due to all these problems and had their free play wasted. Well, they'll have to get TF2 themselves. :P It seems like there's hardly anyone who's yet to get it but with these updates, they seem to keep finding people who have yet to obtain this game.

That's me and Haggard all right! Instead of congratulating people, we argue about Manowar, Slayer, the shitblade, Christmas and how he's angry when he posts achievements.

What else could you two talk about, right? =)

Umm, snow?

Isn't the lounge a wonderful place with us two around? :D

Of course! You have very entertaining arguments!

Why thank you. Please support me and Manowar. :D

Perhaps you could find time to reply to all posts on one page and then do the next the following day and so on. Just to break it down bit by bit. Heh, I probably suggested this before. Still, it helps a lot.

It sure helps, but the problem is: I have about 50 pages or so to catch up on, and less than a week to do them. =(

Ouch, that's a lot to do. Maybe when you get back when you have some time?

How could you hate snow? And why can't I have more snow?

It gets in your shoes, up your pants, down your neck... everywhere. Plus, it makes everything soaking wet, even inside rooms when people run around in shoes that are covered in snow.
Also, after a few hours everything turns into ugly snow slush.

I'm not sure how it'd work for you but it can work well for others. Sanjay for favourite indian, BlueHipoo for favourite hippo (duh), ThePigeonMaster for favourite pigeon and Poozy for favourite crane operator or mod to take the piss. :P I could go on all day doing this.

Sure, predicting who will win isn't that hard, but the rounds before that are what count and there I usually start off pretty nice, but second round, everything goes down the drain.

Here's hoping that was just a one-off.

Here's hoping he continues doing it.

No, we need to see more happy faces.

Then you should post some.

Yes, he said he would and he must. XD

It's a start, but not enough.

Ok then, shit shit shit shit shit shit.

Awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome. And with that, I win.
