Crush the Review Request 3.0 Thread!

Image
Floop is a madman, save us, save us.
Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come.

The Review Request 3.0 thread is full enough, so we've closed it and begun a new one. However, we are currently at 80-ish ungraded threads, and that is crazy. We are all volunteers here at Standing Trials, and we understand that getting through graded threads helps to progress your PCs along. So, with that in mind, welcome...

To the Grading Thunderdome!

After some discussion, the Storyteller team sent out an SOS to the rest of staff to try and get this tackled, but then we had a great idea. Why don't we offer you guys a little more incentive to get out there, review some threads, and maybe find some new threading partners you'd never have considered otherwise? If that's not good enough, how about some goodies from Djinn's Bag of Fun Stuff (TM).

  • We've increased the Point Bank reward for a peer review from 5 points to 10 points. Double the fun. If this works out for us, we'll look at keeping it that way. It's an easy 10 points.
  • We've decided that for every 15 reviews a Peer Reviewer does, they get a medal, which means more points in the end. Plus, who doesn't love medals?
  • Speaking of medals, we've got a shiny one for this event all lined up. For those who do 2 reviews, you get a participation medal. For the one who does the MOST, you get another medal, counting you as the King/Queen of The Reviewers. Put on those Reviewer pants and show us WHO IS BOSS!


This event will go on as long as the Review Request Thread 3.0 has ungraded threads, starting here. You may not lay down more than 2 (TWO) placeholders at any time, to make it fair for everyone and to ensure the speediest grading possible.

Guys, this is going to benefit everyone. Your threads get graded, you get skill points and rewards. Let's work together as a team and bring this review request thread to its knees.

Ready? Set... GO!


EDIT: Alright, buttheads. Let's make sure that when we are reviewing, we are reviewing in order. Don't cherry lick the short ones for maximum numbers. We gotta get them all done. Kudos on being thrifty, but skipping threads will disqualify you from the medals.

Crush the Review Request 3.0 Thread!

I totally knew this wouldn't be worth it. It wasn't, btw.


Ladies and gentlemen... it has come to a close. We crushed the 3.0 thread in under two weeks. Guys, that's amazing, and I just want to say that I am personally super impressed with everyone who stepped up. You guys did such a great job, and I hope that the smashing success of this event means we'll have more of them in the future.

I want to make a few notes before I start setting down the numbers. Firstly, the point banks points are going to revert back to their original values. This may not be the case forever, but as of right now, it's back to 5 points a review. Also, due to some life stuff, the medals are going to be delayed for a little while, as we're having some trouble uploading them to the site. They WILL happen, and when they do, you'll all get them in a massive influx of "WOOOOOOHOOOOOO".

Without further ado, let's spin that beat.

Guys, what a fantastic turnout. I'm so glad that we did all this.

I would like to note: The Storyteller team decided before the event that if the person with the most reviews was a staff member, we would give it to the peer reviewer with the next highest amount. So, with a massive thanks to Pegasus for her hard work and time, I'd like to happily say:

THANK YOU MAL!


As a peer reviewer, you really stepped up and took a massive bite out of this queue, no pun intended. You absolutely deserve the King of the Peer Reviewers medal, and every single point you earned from this. You did a spectacular job, and I'd like to personally make sure that you get the recognition you deserve for that.

Everyone else, really well done. Stay tuned, maybe we'll clear 4.0 here pretty soon. :D
