This is it.
Also, the Critics club isn't accepting reviews as of now, you'll have to wait until the next round.

I...think I fixed it. Not quite sure. That was a really odd thing with all the colors and what-not.

EDIT: Hey, I did. And Zarayna didn't. I feel so proud of myself. :lol:

The new forum style trips me up sometimes too. For a while I had to switch back to all BBCode to do links, but I figured out how to do that with the regular forum.

I don't know how I'll teach you, though. I don't really even know my own process. .-.

And I have reviewed Oasis.


With that we are accepting requests again. I'll take the two that were already posted here, since I never updated the main post saying we weren't taking requests, so that means three more requests until we stop allowing them again. Also, there will probably be some slight changes in the way things work in the near future, but I'll announce that later on if things actually happen.

(Also, I realize I have not replied to two critics [one a potential critic] who have PMed me...apologies for that, I will try to respond tomorrow)

I Will Return by Lord of the Rings -- Assigned to Jinklemeister
Reinforcements by Despair -- Assigned to Tyler Durden

Blood on the Sand by Lord Darkon -- Assigned to Zaxvo
Kingdoms by Click -- Assigned to TheMightyFighty (now some other name which I shall look up later =P)


I swear there were five stories, so if I missed one let me know -- otherwise, we will accept one more request, and I will review it. Also, I would like to announce the newest critic: Jinklemeister. I'm sure he'll do great.

Shadows by Kal Grochi.

I warn you, it will be a weird read until the end, possibly.

I might need an extra day or two to finish my review: I have a killer biology packet (around 285 multiple choice questions alone) I've been working on since Monday, so I'm focusing on finishing that up.

Thanks in advance and sorry to Despair for the inconvenience.

It isn't a problem. I'd wait for a month if it meant getting some good criticism on something I wrote.

Just know that I have pretty high expectations for you. :P

Yeah, sorry everyone...I haven't been on the computer much because of the Easter Triduum, Easter itself, and now I'm on vacation. I'll try to get my reviews up soon (I'm also taking Tolkien's from last time, as he's taking a short hiatus). I'll let in more requests once at least a couple more of these are reviewed. Sorry again, and thank you everyone for your patience.

Alrighty, I've finished my two reviews, and Jinklemeister and Shawn Spencer have been PMed; I will take their stories if they do not reply soon.

So with that: We are now accepting five (5) more requests!

Sorry again for the delay, everyone.

Why thank you, kind sir.

This is twice I've had the person in charge of the respective critic club critique my writing. How odd.

ATTENTION CRITICS AND CUSTOMERS


Starting today there's going to be a change in how things are done. From now on, there is no "five requests at a time rule." There is no "List" -- or at least not in the way it was used before. Instead, there is no request limit. From this point on, as soon as a request comes in, I will be assigning it to a critic by both posting here and PMing said critic. Critics will then have one week, as usual, to complete their assigned story. I will simply rotate through the list. However, if every critic currently active already has a story assigned to them, we will stop accepting requests until a critic has completed their review. As such, every time I post an assignment, I will include whether or not we are still accepting requests, so keep checking my recent posts.



What does this mean for customers?


Not much, except that we should be able to accept more things more quickly. All you have to do is, as I said, check a recent post of mine to see if we are currently accepting requests and then read the front page like always and use the proper format when requesting.


For those two requests we have currently, I will be taking on and Cederak will be taking the other; from here on out new requests will follow the new system.



All critics will be receiving a PM shortly, so if you do not receive a PM, please PM me.


Also, I would like to announce that Cederak will be joining me as Co-Curator (who has excellently run the ECC, is a great critic, and has helped me with this new system).
