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!

It's okay. I've honestly done way less than expected this month do to the same reason. I try to stay productive though.
Hey all! Hope you've had a good week.
Apologies for the update being a little later than promised, our flight had severe delays and I've literally only just gotten back xD
Request list and members update and general fun admin-type things will be coming up in the next hour or two, so watch this space!
Here is the request list! The members update (for this week and last week) will come in the next few hours; obviously will take longer as I need to look through last week's requests, etc., and seeing whether anyone's close to 100% and what have you. ANYWAY, request list for this week:

There was a few requests which didn't make it onto this list, so here's a reminder:
You cannot RE-request something. If a submission of yours has already been put an a request list and reviewed by members of the RRC, you can't submit it AGAIN for more reviews. (:
Butt we had no problems with people exhausting their limits, so yay! Shame that doesn't shorten the list any ;D 35 submissions. Happy reviewing, all.
Roight, member's update! Apologies for any huge typos or general mistakes, see aforementioned delayed flight xD
As I was in sunny sunny Africa for a week, this member's update is for this week and the last. In all, it was relatively successful; we hit the massive milestone of 5000 RRC reviews. The average per member and per request this week was also up from the last update. Soapbubble continues his 100% streak, and there's a promising start from spartacusxerox who makes his first appearance on THE LIST.
The next update will be at the end of this week, as normal. And then before you know it Stephan will be back to fill your worlds with magical updates again!

Welcome back (well I'm not really one to say this because I'm not technically back yet myself...). Wonderful update as usual.
I see you gave 6 points to the people who posted during the first AND second week, and 3 points to the people who posted in only one week. I thought you would have missed that xD.
In all, it was relatively successful; we hit the massive milestone of 5000 RRC reviews. The average per member and per request this week was also up from the last update.

35 requests, I've seen worse. The beginning of a new month will probably mean a slightly larger list, which shows that the rule of 3 audio requests per month is somewhat working.
If only there was a way to make it all automated. I tried programming a list maker ages ago, but I'm limited since the only language I've been taught is Turbo Pascal *shudder*.
Thanks again for all the great updating you're doing :D.

A good amount of flash and art requests, but a ridiculous amount of audio requests, as always. I need to do some audio reviews, as I lost 7 audio reviews (and 4 responses!) yesterday. Either one artist decided to delete all of his submissions or an account got deleted.
Anyway, I have to try and make up for the loss somehow.

I know I promised to do some more reviews, but my sidejob and Fallout 3 kept me from keeping my promis, sorry. :(
But Coop did even less reviews than me (propably because of the London Meet Up), so I continue to sneak away from him. ^^

I'd really appreciate positive criticism on this. It is my first piece to be performed live. Thanks!
Do you think after clock day were going to have a big flash request list? That would be tough to do. I usually get all art,flash,and a few audio don a week but if the flash request gets filled with the after math of clock day I will try but Im not sure I could get it all done.
Sorry to double post but.

I just noticed those 2 art pieces were removed which sucks cause art is my favorite thing to review. Im still going for at least 50 points this week but a few art request gone is going to make it hard. If I review al flash and the rest of art I can easily make it. Maybe make some room for a few audio reviews

Don't worry too much. If the requests are just useless spam submissions, we won't review them. We should concentrate on flash artists that really want to improve their flash skills. Authors who submit a flash on Clock Day usually don't do it to practice their flash skills. ;)

Hello everyone. I'd like to request reviews on my newest song. It's very weird. But I like it and I want to know what people think. I'll respond to any review.
When I die. It will be in a blaze of glory.

Still, could be free review points. Spam flashes are pretty easy to review. That is, if anyone cares enough about points to review them. As long as the actual ones are reviewed as well.

I can't say i've never not stayed up a whole night to do reviews but I find if I do that then the quality of the reviews drops since i'm not able to pick out fine details as easily.
Domo's resignation
This was the first club that I joined on newgrounds and I had a blast being in it. But I have school things that will be going on. So I have no time for this club any more and I want to leave with pride and not just leave with people wondering where I went. So this club will always hole a special place in my heart. I may come back as soon as I can but for now I will have to deal with other things. Good bye RRC
OH MY GOD I forgot about this club, I am not getting a Macbook so I just better get reviewing
Hi guys,
Can you review this please?
It is a trailer for the collab I am making, it would be good to have some constructive feedback.
Thanks

Looks like I've got some catching up to do this week. Haggard is pulling away from me and rubbing my face in it as well. How depressing to have lost 7 audio reviews over the weekend. I'd better see if I can take some steps to rectify this.
Still, I've been reviewing here for a long time, so it's about time for a week off :P

Well, I gotta say my last couple of reviews were lacking in quality. But at least they were there providing SOME support.

Aww, man ): You were a great reviewer, it's sad to see you go. heck, it's sad to see anyone go, but you reviewed so much that your resignation will probably be noticed by the requesters. I'm looking forward to your return to the RRC.
Meet the Mayor.
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!
