Indeed. All the more reason to see contributions go up spread between those reviewers.

And don't you worry your pretty little head, Triton, I prepped one of your games this week as one of the three I prepped. Next time I prep, I'll be sure to pick out another couple :)

And if I manage to find time, which I have to admit is unfortunately pretty unlikely, I'll try to make sure to get all of your reviews prepped within the next few weeks.

It's so cute that you're trying to pick a fight :)

If you haven't checked out my art topic on AB, my current specialty is swans, not ducks ;)

But as I said, don't you worry one little bit, they'll get prepped ;)

It's cute how you assume I'm picking a fight.  Those 100 level psychology courses you took must really have paid off.

Triton...

You send your reviews to the busiest admin on the entire site, you don't upload them to the server. The games on the server gets prepped by me and Kosta, and we work our way down the list alphabetically.

This means two admins share the work for a couple of games. Which speeds up the process.

Taikara can only do so many things at once.
May I propose that you, in the future, upload your reviews and screens like it's supposed to be done?

And don't blame our crew for working on updates that doesn't have your name attached to them. They are doing their job.

Yo!

*grabs the popcorn and the cocacola* This is actually getting entertaining  :)  Tai's winning though. Her Avatar/sig combo is just too damned cute.

Anyways, I took a look at those games and I must say Enigma is addictive as all hells! so fun heh. I also go No Gravity, but I haven't ran it yet.
I'd love to see reviews for all these games, but I know everyone is just human, and things take patience, time, and dedication.They'll come when they come. Triton, thank you so much for your reviews, and I can't wait to see them when they do come, and Tai, thank you for your work with this site. It's too bad we can't clone you into an army of 50 Taikara's, all 49 relentlessly doing their job to the utmost optimism. And you, the origional, can sit back and chill with a gree tea frappuccino. (and yes I googled how to spell frappuccino...)

The problem with people here is that they jump to conclusions whenever Triton is involved.  You will do well to take note that I was mainly interested in seeing Battlecruiser Millennium added to the site postehaste so that I will have a chance to commence the interview with the creator before I get inundated with homework; within the next two weeks I may also have a full-time job at a casino as a barback, so that will cut back on my availability to do things with and for AR.

In addition, I was also campaigning to see that games other than Adventures be added to the site (not necessarily written by me), because people who visit the site don't always want to play Adventure games.

Furthermore, this link is misleading.  It gives the impression that reviewers for this site are in high demand.  If there is such a backlog of reviewed games waiting to be added, then why bother having that written on the site?

And Mr Snobby Rich Guy, the reason I've been sending in my reviews to Taikara via instant messenger is because it is the only way to upload files without timing out because of my slow connection.  Just because you have the most powerful computer in the world with the best and fastest internet connection doesn't mean everyone else has the same.

There is no excuse for your harrassment here.  Please stop trying to pick a fight.

~~~ kissing in the forum I supermodded in for a while (I quit because I found myself with less time to keep up) is good enough for a 5 day ban.  Feel lucky that the Admin here like ~~~ kissers, because they don't seem to do anything about you and others.

Let's keep this discussion civilised and try to avoid insulting each other, shall we?
I understand you're anxious to start that interview before you are up to your ears in work, Triton, but I'm afraid that depending on the updaters' schedules it might not be possible to have it on the site as soon as you would wish. At the moment I can't see anything Battlecruiser-related in any of the folders, so I suspect the game still needs screenshots as well - and if your connection is so painfully slow it times out where text files of approximately 3-5 Kb are concerned, images will be out of the question, obviously. I'm sure the updaters will be doing their best, but if the game isn't ready on time you might just have to postpone the interview. Sorry.

On a sidenote, I'm surprised that there's no computer at your university which you could use for a few minutes. Or does your university have a strict "FTP is bad" policy? Mine has, which is very annoying indeed.

Indeed let's not play the blame game with all this and make it evolve into something that will just go off on it's own tangent, just take it easy for now and be patient, lots of things have been going on and nagging about it, won't make it happen any faster. Once everything is all ready and such I'm sure it'll get updated then by the crew.

I always send reviews with screenshots, and Battlecruiser Millennium was no exception.

Computers at my college (it's not a university) are for college-related work only, and all computers are monitored.  They also don't allow uploads or downloads of any kind except when it can be proven that they were for college work.  The computers are almost always occupied anyway, and the two computer labs on the tech campus are not connected to the internet.

Ah, good. I forgot that you can send attachments through instant messagers. In that case there's hope at least.

So you don't have something like a common room, then? Now that's really annoying.

Colleges often also have common rooms too. I know that York College does.

Are you also not sure that this stuff could be classed as 'extra-curicullar' (argh spellings) work? Try and get them round to your way of thinking. It's always going to help.

*edits* Also, whilst you might have your own personal agenda, the rest of the people on the site are just tringing to enjoy themselves. Don't have a go at everyone else for stinking to this as a hobby rather than a lifestyle choice, ok?

Hey..I wasn't kissing, just making an idle joke. I didn't think you two were having a serious argument. I just thought you two were making jokes, just playing around, so I was playing around too.

So, I DO apoligise Triton, I meant NO offence to you, nor did I mean to put Tai on a pedestal. I view everyone as equals, and if one were to read further into my post, I did say that I look forward to all your reviews Triton.

If any admins feel that my kissing deserves a 5 day ban, I will accept it. It was not intended as anything more than a joke. Sorry for being off topic, but I wished to apoligise for conveying something incorrectly.
