Hey iBrow, want me to take this one?

[Hurricane iBrow]

Sure, you can have it.

Yay, my first chance to review some stuff! I'll get to it this weekend or maybe tonight!
Also iBrow... your name. XD

It's happened both times before I remembered that members had those names. I'm sorry. I'm referring to the pony, not you.

I exist, ya know. Maybe I can take the next one?

[Hurricane iBrow]

Yes, I realize you exist, lol. However, you've reviewed the most comedies so far, hence why neither of these is yours. xD

I reviewed it!

[Toarobot18]

Question: when a comedy is reviewed a second time (say for new chapters), and the score is different than the previous time, how is the rating on the first page adjusted? Just set to the second score?

For example, The Bionicle Entrepreneur got 85% on its first review, but that was used for screening so it didn't count. On its second review, it got 83%. If it was reviewed a third time for new chapters, and say got 82%, would that be the new score for the comedy? Or would you average the two and make it 82.5%?

[Hurricane iBrow]

None of the scores will be replaced- it'll simply be added onto the list, as it could be a different reviewer (with different opinions on what makes a good comedy), or the score could show you've improved/declined if it's the same reviewer.

-ibrow

[Toarobot18]

In that case, is the latest score used to determine the "Must-See Comedies"? And if the newer score is below the cut off, can a comedy lose that designation?

[Hurricane iBrow]

Yes, the latest score would be used to determine the "Must-See Comedies"- if the score is lower, perhaps I could add in a symbol that says it made the 85% cutoff in the past.

Reviewer's Rating: 4/10 (40%) for lack of plot and poor characterization.

Thanks Fishers! I don't mean to hog the CCC, so feel free to shove this down the list if someone else requests, but since Fishers finished my previous request and no others are outstanding, here is new request:

Toy Wars
Author: Toarobot18
Status of your comedy: In Progress
Chapters to be reviewed: 1 - 4 5

Author's Note: this comedy is based in the "real world" except with enchanted living toys. The main toys are Bionicle sets, but the sets are not assumed to have the same personalities as their Bionicle story-line partners. (In fact, there are even duplicate sets and M.O.Cs.)

Sorry about the delay on reviewing Toa of Silver's, but I've been a bit busy. Should get it done soon.

[Toarobot18]

Rarity, if you haven't already started your review, I edited my post to read chapters "1 - 5" instead of "1 - 4," since I just posted another chapter. If you could review the new one as well, I'd appreciate that. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'll try and get this one done for you by tomorrow evening. If I can't, you'll be notified within this topic.

To the critics: We might be moving to our own topic soon, but if we do, please let me take fifteen minutes to get three posts in first. =P That way all the information will be stored nice and neatly. However, I'm hoping to have some banners done so it looks better to that end, so it might end up waiting until after next week when I return.

Finished review.

Rating is 75.3 ...%

[Hurricane iBrow]

I will round that down because I hate decimals. =P Unless it's .5.

-ibrow

[ZHX]

It's 75 and a third percent man! The extra third gives it the feeling of ... 'Hubert-ness'.

Without the decimal, it is not an accurate average!

[Hurricane iBrow]

Oh well. 75 or 75.5?
By the way guys, I am posting the new topic NOW. Nobody post until I've got all the information in though.

-ibrow

[ZHX]

75.5 might be better then.

[Hurricane iBrow]

Editing it then.
By the way guys, for the next week while I'm gone, I've put fishers temporarily in charge of the CCC.

-ibrow

[ZHX]

I, for one, welcome our new comedic overlord.

I, for one, welcome our new comedic overlord.

More like regent while the true comedic overlord is away.

[Hurricane iBrow]

Alright- fishers, Rarity, Hubert, you guys can all move over to the official Comedies Critics Club topic now. See you all in a week.

-ibrow

[ZHX]

Got it your highness.

Well guys, this topic is now for random Comedic Federation shenanigans. We're off to migrate over towards the CCC Topic.

*Packs luggage.*

[Applejack]

I'm gonna miss this old place...not really.

So, is the CCC topic gonna get pinned?

[ZHX]

It already has my dear. It already has.

[Applejack]

It already has my dear. It already has.

Please don't refer to me as your dear. Ever. It's creepy.

That was posted before it was pinned xD

[Hurricane iBrow]

Please move all CCC stuff over to the new topic completely. I've returned! =D

-ibrow

[ZHX]

So what exactly will this topic be for now? Because we sort of took over everything with the CCC and I've forgotten the true purpose of the thread.

[Hurricane iBrow]

To be honest, I'm not sure. I think the original pan was to host unofficial competitions and the likeand also include major crossover comedies, but it seems to have partially collapsed. It doesn't help that one of the four leader guys (Maniac) has vanished as well.

-ibrow

[ZHX]

Well, I have an idea.

Give challenges to writers so they can write a comedy to fulfil the requirements of the challenge?
