Apologies if I've been a bit inactive. Trying to sort out my computer and a new (hopefully) awesome flash... maybe even make it to the 4 point range... but that's a far way away...
Just letting you guys know I'm alive :D

Lol'ing is good for your health, and so is reviewing!

Some of us do flash, but whether you're looking to invite folk or join, you're better off in the Flash forum.

But... peeps! I just realised - Saturday's the anniversary of Agak starting this thread. I think I'll whip up something quickly in a few hours. Sorry for not organising something.

Maybe if anyone else feels like making something we could submit separately and link to each other?

Maybe with an identical pre-loader or something, for unity?

Alright we are suppose to ask before we join right? Can I join to review these flashes? I was wrongfully perma. banned from reviewing for a long time now, but have gotten my perma. ban lifted by Wade. I have a much better understanding of how to leave constructive reviews now too after spending so much time in the abusive review thread.

Yeah, spotlight submissions are basically requests from users with 100% last week that shoudl be treated the same way as any other request.

Well I just finished reviewing this week's current submissions and it was quite draining. But I think this is definitely a good way for me to get off my lazy ass and start reviewing again, I'm glad I re-joined this club.

Anyone got recommendations to make? I think this week has far fewer requests and maybe no movies. I think there are fewer overlooked flash submissions though, given the daily top 5 and number of voters. Having said that, I don't actually look at the daily 5/weekly 20 all the time.

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/6 0619
I'd like to point this out. Hilarious song - been listening to it for a few weeks now.
Though it's kinda old (sorry) and the author's other submission seems identical. He was active last winter, so the reviews may yet be appreciated.

Btw, gotta say - at level 3, I thought MacGuges' recommendation was gonna drive me up the wall, but thereafter, the difficulty dropped off a bit. Memorable for good reasons.

I see no-one else replied, so...

Welcome to the club!

You could start by reviewing the requests made since the last list. I'll be making a roundup list later tonight but you can just follow the links the authors provide if you want to start earlier.

Then, on Sunday - 9 days from now - let Haggard/Shanus know how many things you reviewed and you'll be added as a member.

I noticed that your reviews are pretty short though. Maybe you could expand them a bit? Take 5 minutes to cover a specific piece of criticism or suggestion - even if it's good, there's generally room for improvement - a bit of specific praise - to encourage those who aren't otherwise great - and a glimpse into your opinion.

We should organise a collab or something, even if it will be submitted late, just because. It would be nice though.

It's well worth it, trust me. I've not managed to get past 950 Reviews without the help of this club. Now I'm hoping to get to 1000 Reviews and 600 of thosze with responses, which would be a superb 60% response rate.

This week's reviews weren't that bad to get prepared - I just did about 3-4 each day and spent a good hour on Saturday pressing ahead with what was left.

I finished reviewing yesterday if I remember right, lol. This crew has helped me get more audio reviews, which is nice, I don't like reviewing audio most of the time.

To requestors - if you made a request within the past week and it is not listed below, I have made a mistake. I am, after all, only human. Let me know if the unthinkable has happened and I missed your request or got the link wrong.

To reviewers - this is the list of requests made between the last update and now. Haggard or Shanus will probably tally the points for these reviews on the 18th May. If you haven't already completed them, I suggest you first review some stuff from Haggard's list on page 146.

General Rules for Requesters:
If you are planning on requesting reviews, please do the following:
-Make no more than 3 requests within one week.
-Please respond to reviews.
-Due to the points system, you may not see reviews until up to two weeks after you request. Please be patient.
-Post a direct link to the submission(s) you want reviewed.
-DO NOT request without putting a link.
-DO NOT say "Review everything".
-DO NOT request reviews for the same submission more than once.

Spotlighted Recommendations:
Game: The Apex Neurotic Society by ericisako
Audio: Hamburgers! by Jrev

You get points for reviewing reccommendations.
You may make a reccommendation if you reviewed 100% of the previous weeks requests and recommendations. It should have fewer than 30 reviews.

No movie requests this week - which meant I won't argue with Macguges recommending a movie with 40 reviews.

Sorry for not doing this sooner. Last weekend/friday, I've just had no energy. Being ill and trying to make money didn't help.

This week, I can't really update the list later than Thursday night. It may mean there's hardly any requests, so maybe someone else could either do the list later or update my list? Or we can just have a somewhat shorter list next week...

Anyways, if I'm doing the list, get in your recommendations by Thursday night.

Plaintext version here.

Ugh... I only got a chance to review one of the listed submissions this week. Damn English project. Well, that and me being scared away by the audio requests. I'm just not musically inclined. Still, I hope to be able to get the 100% next week without this albatross of a project around my neck.

Guys I'm sorry but for now I'm going to have to take myself out of here. I've been with you guys a while now but I just don't have the time to do requests anymore. Once in a while I'll drop in and review what I see, but I don't want to be another name on the list that you have to do points for. Maybe one day later in the summer I'll come back, but for right now I just can't be here. Sorry everyone, and thanks for the good run I've had here.

I take that as an: "I can't update the list." Good thing that I am back from my little vacation. ^^
So either I update the list today or I'll do it tomorrow. I still have to sort some things out at home and I don't know if I can squeeze the update in between. We'll see. ;)

These things happen. I'll just spend my time going through the requests that have been left for this week.

Now I can spot a benefit of the list that Bezman has compiled. Thanks.

Thanks for letting us know and thanks in advance, haggard, for what will surely be a time-consuming update. I don't envy you.

Now I get to review those tunes I've been listening to... I should probably start doing reviews faster.
