I just made an attempt at Dubstep, just wondering what kind of feedback I could get on it, negative or positive.

Hey guys, I would enjoy joining the audio side of this crew. I already review many songs and even have a spot on the top 10 audio reviewers list. (Cause im that much of a dork) Anyway, is there anyway I can join this club on the audio side? :)

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 milinko959 for maintaining it for so long. Thanks also to Sonofkirk for starting this new thread and doing many updates.

Have fun!

They are yours, when I was making the list the links weren't broken, funny. I don't think people want the list remade either though. I'll just make an exception for you next week if you make 2 more art requests. When it's time to make the next list, post the two meant for this list and the other 2 you wish to be reviewed. Sorry about the list goof up though. So next you can have 4 art reviews just to be on the fair side.

cheers!
well theres only those 2 but thanks anyway, so i'll repost them later on in the week.
its no worries about the "goof up" im not desperate to have them reviewed

Looking for a review on this:

It's not finished yet, and I've been adding to it since tuesday. I'm looking for a criticism on the themes and chord progressions along with layering advice. The progression of the "energy" of the piece should be inferred, I added in drums to sort of hint where it will be going. It's split up into 2 contrasting sections so a sudden change is meant to occur around 2:00, however the method of sudden change is open to critique.

Not too big of a list this time (also, only 1 extra audio request! Wow...). Maybe I can find the motivation to finish them all on the week end? :)

Hello, Review Request Club. I haven't requested any reviews in here for a while, but remember how helpful it has been in the past.

I am looking for critique on this picture I created:

Pushing Onwards.

I would like critique on the drawing technique, colouring, shading, composition, etc.

But most importantly, I would like critique on the design of the character represented within the picture. Is the character memorable? Interesting? Would you want to see more of this character? What do you think the design says about the character itself? That sort of thing.

I ask because I am currently designing characters for use in a comic I'm planning on creating, and would love the input of the members of this club.

To give you guys some more ease in assessing the design of the character, here's a much simpler drawing of it, with only the essential elements of the character present.

Link.

Also if anybody could suggest a name for the character, I would be grateful.

My thanks, in advance.

Hello!
Could you review this one?
I made something kinda different this time.

Who are you looking for? What are you looking at?

A light? a star. A boat? an insect. A plane? a flying fish

Sorry to tell you this, but you can only get points for Flash, Audio, and Art that's posted in the most recent roundup.
Fuck this I'm outta here

Come on, the rules of this club aren't overly complicated... but if you don't want to understand them... good riddance, I guess. :/

Well, I didn't get all the reviews done, but I did the flash and both the art reviews plus I managed to do 7 audio reviews. I doubt that I can get the remaining 6 done before the next update, but ah well. It's still the best I did in quite some time. ^^

You might have time to do a few more actually. The update is almost always on Monday night to Tuesday. You already knew that though. If you can't do any more then it is ok.

Yes I know that. But I won't be home before 5pm today, and when I get home I'm usually not in a good reviewing mood. ;)

I can relate, since some times when I get home from school I'm to pissed off to want to do anything. Also no school today or tomorrow for me since it keeps snowing and it's starting to annoy me since I want to get my EOCs done so I can start my second semester of classes.

Yeah I figure some weeks I'm a reviewing machine and then sometimes I don't feel like doing any at all! Also because I'm quite picky with how I do my reviews, I have a system and everything. It makes things that much harder. But I enjoy it :3

I'm requesting reviews for this. As of right now, it has no reviews and I can't see the situation getting much better for it, so I'd like some solid constructive criticism. Ignore the awkward placement of the name there. That's only there because the picture's original purpose was for a collab.

I'm afraid I feel really sick right now and according to the doctor I'll more than likely be sick for the rest of the week so I won't be able to update. Maybe next week I'll do the update for two weeks (two requests lists) instead of one.

Very sorry :(.

Just made this, want to know if i should continue in the same direction i was going in. Not sure where that may be. But yeah, if you can give me an honest review. It's an extremely raw WIP, so don't take quality into account. some timing issues as well, just wanted to get the sound out there.

Thanks :)
