Hey guys, I just laid down a new test version of an old track I did. I lost all my music when my computer crashed and have to redo it all. So if you could review and let me know what you think that would be great. Any tips about lyrics would be good, also about effects that I use. Thanks you very much.

Right, I'll do the list tomorrow. I've got the afternoon off from college, so it should be finally done.

God willing :P

God willing :P

Just a quick reminder - not the latest list I've just made - only the serious nutters of reviews (Haggard and Corky) are probably anywhere near completing all requests for that list :P

I'm about a third of the way through, so I'll have all week to have a crack at that one, which I'll need.

I'm not anywhere near completing it. I've done all flash/game requests, but only a few audio requests so far. And I still doubt that I can complete it... :/

I say I have about 10 more audio reviews to go from the list. I don't know exactly, but I ended up writing a bunch last night. I probably will only get about 5 done tonight because Monday's are my busiest day of the week. So as long as Shanus doesn't count these reviews in his update then I'll be fine, but if he does I'm finally going to lose my 100 percent that I held in the club for a long time.

So I rather you just update it to up before the large list that Coop made and then next weekend update that list. :P

Yes, I know the graphics and animation are bad, but I tried my best.

Can you please review my flash?

Response to Review Request Club 2009-01-28 08:46:07


I managed to get through the large list that Coop posted up, but still looks like Shanus hasn't found time to make the list. In one way it doesn't matter too much because the only really active members are Haggard, Coop, sirtom, and I. While doing those reviews it looked like the active members were doing them and as long as we are then I guess thats good enough for awhile.

I'll probably try to get everything that is posted after the list before the weekend. Perhaps today since I won't have much to do. (Two of my classes were canceled)

Response to Review Request Club 2009-01-28 13:25:50


Well, the audio submission I requested reviews for a while ago has got its fair share, so now it's on to audio submission #2:

Thanks,

I've got a question for you guys. How do you review audio?

My problem is that somehow when I think I'll review some Audio I always end up not finding anything to say. To me it seems that it's just a matter of liking or not liking something. Aside from saying "I love this tune!" or "This sucks ass!" I just don't find there's so much you can say about it.

Obviously, the first step is to listen to the audio. While you're doing that, use notepad to jot down a few ideas that you're thinking of, particularly in the longer pieces, as you will forget them otherwise.

Listen for how the beat, melody, harmony, lyrics and overall performance of the song sounds. Once you've covered those points, think if there are any parts that you really liked and highlight them - artists always like praise. Show how they could improve it, like certain variations that you wouldn't mind hearing and try to point them in a direction that would help them out.

Once I've done that, I've pretty much got the review finished, so I SPG check, tag it with [Review Request Club] and click submit.

That's pretty much how I roll with it.

CLUB INFO
...............................

General Rules for Requesters:
If you are planning on requesting reviews, please:
- Post a direct link to the submission(s) you want reviewed.
- Make no more than 3 requests within one week.
- Do us a favour and respond to our reviews.
- Be patient. Due to the points system, you may not see reviews until up to two weeks after you request.
- Do NOT request without posting a link.
- Do NOT just say "Review everything" or just link to your profile.
- Do NOT request reviews for the same submission more than once.

General Rules for New Reviewers:
If you are planning on completing requests, please do the following:
- Post in this thread to let us know you'd like to join.
- Understand the points system and keep track of your own score. You will only be added to the list if you post your own score within the first week.

Points:
**Please also keep track of your own points. If you see something missing, it's probably a mistake**
**To be on the list, you must make at least one review, posters only will not be counted**

5 points for a review on a requested movie/game
7 points for a review on a requested audio
+1 point for putting "Review Request Club" at the bottom of a requested review
3 points for posting at least once throughout the week
5 points for referring a new member (must mention you in first post)
7 points for reviewing all requests/recommendations for that week

Club updates
Each Sunday or Monday, Shanus or Haggard currently create a list of all the members, counting up their points, calculating various stats and posting a list of requested submissions. Assuming you review the submissions listed, you will get points for them on the following members' update, 6 or 7 days later.

On Thursday, perfect-insanity creates a list of all requests and recommendations made since the previous Thursday. This can be considered a 'preview' of the list that will accompany the following members' update on Sunday/Monday. The points for these are tallied 10 days later.

Requests made between the 'preview list' and the 'members' update' carry over to the next preview list. So you will always have over 9 days to finish the reviews. (Feel free to review submissions as soon as they are requested!)

FAQ
Should I link to the club in my sig?
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, NG will take you to the latest page, whatever it is.

So if you link to: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/4834 48/999
then anyone following that link will always see the latest page.

I don't understand what recommendations are all about!
As mentioned under this section in each list, 'You may make a recommendation if you reviewed 100% of the previous weeks requests and recommendations. It should be over 3 days old and have under 50 reviews.'

As long as your name is on the last 'All requests completed' list, feel free to recommend something you've enjoyed from the portal.

You could use this to let us know about something you think is specially awesome, yet overlooked. If there aren't many game or movie requests, maybe you could make a recommendation so we have something to review.

Does the Review Request Club review stuff for non-NG stuff?
Short answer: no.

Long answer: Milinko used to include youtube requests in the list of requests, but the introduction of a points system didn't leave room for such things. You can request reviews here, but some of us may not have accounts on Myspace/Youtube/whatever or may simply be disinclined to review things outside NG. It wouldn't get nearly as much attention compared to if it were a NG submission.

I'd suggest putting songs on the AP, then making a request that way. It lets us give feedback whilst staying on our favourite site. ;-)

...............................

If a new page hase begun and this info has not been posted yet, please copy the plaintext version and post it, thus keeping this info at the top of each page.

Coop covered it pretty well already. I use a similair method, but I will write down anything I can think of in the review window instead of notepad. When I have written down everything I try to connect the sentences to get a structure into the reivew. Then I try to expand the sentences a bit, so that it doesn't go like "I liked this. I disliked that. Improve this."

In a way you're right, it's very often a matter of if you like a tune or dislike a tune. But I try to disregard my personal preferences and try to focus on the work itself.
