I wouldn't go so far as to call it "hacking". It propably is simple password guessing or cross-site-scripting.

Either way, it's been 4 hours since I've been banned and Canas is still a mod? Sure, everybody has to sleep sometimes, but there sure must be someone online who can at least demod him...

By hacking I referred to his account getting hacked into by someone else, not someone hacking the server and getting his password or something :P.

It's been taken care of now.

Might take some time before everyone's unbanned though. Just have to post in that thread in Wi/Ht to get noticed.

The update is moved a couple of days/week. So that people get a proper chance at finnishing all the reviewis.

Right now I am perma banned from reviewing, so I guess I can't contribute anything to this club this week. :/

Same here :/
Anyone know what happened? :/

Response to Review Request Club 2011-08-25 12:40:38


oooo nvm that last one x.x
Thought it was pretty odd that like 7 of my reviews were deleted by some mod I've never heard of :(

I know that. But it still wasn't "hacking". :P
Guessing someone's password isn't exactily hacking. ^^

Yes. Only disadvantage is that I now have to check the box that I've read the review guidelines. Before the ban/ban lifting I could benefit from a bug that came with the redesign. Because I had checked the box before the redesign I didn't need to check it after the redesign. And now I have to do it everytime I want to write a review. Bummer.

My ban isn't lifted, says it wont be till tomorrow. Might have to ask for the update to be pushed to Tuesday. I've got all the flash reviews done, but no audio.

Response to Review Request Club 2011-08-26 18:51:01


It really shouldn't be an issue, it's lifted tomorrow morning, and if the update is moved to Tuesday, I should be able to get it all done.

Update on tuesday would be awesome. I haven't been able to review on the week end. Maybe I can get some reviews done tomorrow morning before I go to work.

I'm about halfway through the audio, but I gotta get some sleep soon. I have an annoying schedule for classes in the morning, lectures between 08.15 - 10.00, 12.15 - 14.00 and 14.15 - 16.00, so I wont be home till late. Pretty please don't update the list tomorrow? I know I can get them done, but I don't have the time to go home between the first and second lecture, so I wont be back home till 16.30 or something like that.

Only six left now, but the MLG Raleigh SC2 finals start now, so I'll be watching those, and sleeping afterwards. Like I said, I'm hoping you can push the update a day, Steph, seeing as SCTE3 has a problem doing the update with a busy schedule, and the same goes for me.

Response to Review Request Club 2011-08-28 21:10:55


I'll move the update to Tuesday and I can delay a little longer if need be.

Sorry for not answering earlier.

I'm not seeing them. I've checked your Flash, Music and Art reviews and none are on the submissions in this list.

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

Have fun!

Indeed, nothing uncommon though, some of them requests get deleted after we make a review for them, oh well.

Luckily no one reviewed mine before it was deleted lol. I accidentley deleted my submission... ignoring the, "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE THIS?!" message... TWICE. Man im a dumbass.

Anyway, here is the NEW submission I would love to have reviewed if some of you would have the time. I already have an insane amount of feedback on it, but it has less than 50 reviews so I thought hey, why not?

P.S. Im thinking of getting back into this club again... I need to start reviewing stuff some more.
