I nearly didn't review Rockin2Fame as I couldn't get far enough. Decided I don't really care for the game and don't want to spend any more time on it though. It seems I got everything reviewed before Milinko's update. ;-)
6*5 = 30 (flash)
9*7 = 63 (audio)
13 (RRC tags)
3 (posted)
7 (all reviewed)
= 116 points this week (think)
1317+116 = 1433

Can i still join, i'l help reviewing ^.^
Of course - all reviewers are welcome. I suggest you start by reviewing the requests made since Milinko's last post. He'll probably compile a list tonight or tomorrow (along with the rules) and you can check what you should do more easily.
Then before his next update (before next Sunday), make a post stating what you reviewed and how many points you should be due. Having done that, he'll add you to the list! Just like that. ;-)
Btw, just a tip - it might help authors more if you're more specific in your criticisms. E.g. instead of saying, "artstyle needs some work" you could say, "the text looks bad against the drawings and the way you stretched the boxes didn't look good" (or whatever you thought was bad about the artstyle). If criticism is too vague, it can be hard to understand what someone didn't like about it and that often upsets me if its my flash. I find specific criticism, conversely, useful and generally good to read.
Of course, each author's different and feel free to take or leave the advice as you see fit. ;-)

I'm sorry if this is being pushy, but i've seen a lot of people say they reviewed every flash this week, but mine has only got 2 from the review crew this week.
I'm sorry if this is causing trouble, there might be a rule I don't know or something, but I am just curious. If anyone can fill me in if I'm missing something.
Each week, Milinko makes a list of the previous week's request and we then try to complete them before the following update. So folk are talking about the submissions in the last list and that's why Milinko added a new rule:
-Due to the points system, you may not see reviews until up to two weeks after you request.

Hmm, well a few more since this post, I'd request a review on my most recent flash but it's pretty bleh and stuff, lmao.
Do it anyway. As long as you genuinely care about our opinions, it's worth making the request.

And I'm not sure how this works but, I'm supposed to give reviews to people who request them as well as get reviews for my requested work? Just a bit fuzzy there. If that's the case, simple enough!
Some people 'join' - i.e. review requests but don't request reviews.
Some people only request reviews and that's fine.
Some do both.
You can request reviews without joining, though new members are always welcome. Essentially, it's up to you whether you want to join or not. (If you do, someone'll explain stuff.) Either way, your flash will be reviewed in good time. :-)
