Where could we get those games?

[Triton]

Gee, I don't know!  Maybe check the review backlog?

[Kon-Tiki]

If they're already in the To Review list and're waiting to be reviewed, why not propose to review them yourselves? It'll get more done than requesting something that's already pending to be added.

[Triton]

I meant that the reviews were sent in a while ago and they were never added to the site because someone just had to get every last adventure game on the site.  I've been waiting for the Battlecruiser review to be added so that I may commence the interview before I get too much homework.

[DakaSha]

id havta agree.... if you just visit the site once you get the impression that thats all there is here: adventures.

[Triton]

We need new updaters.  The ones this site has aren't any good.

[DakaSha]

actually we should ban triton and delete his rewiews

[Triton]

We should ban you just for being you and using smilies.

[taikara]

It's not the updaters' fault, it's mine.

I haven't prepped a few of those games yet, because I've been trying to spread out the prep between different reviewers, so people get at least one or two of their reviews up every few weeks.

[Triton]

Just how many reviewers are there?  I'm suddenly starting to regret writing all of those reviews if they aren't going to be up for another year.  I also recall Fawfulhasfury's reviews being added in a really short period of time, but that's because they were Adventure games and people would have started peeing their pants if there weren't at least two such games added per week.

[taikara]

Fawful reviewed a series, and I guess they wanted to put those games up somewhat consecutively. The reviews sent directly to the upload are generally prepped by Tom, sometimes Kosta, and I think they generally prep in alphabetical order (Ben Jordan), as that is how they are listed in the upload.

I just try to make sure we have a few different reviewers available to choose from. And actually, I generally prep a couple of yours when I get around to prepping, as that's the majority of what has been sent to me personally. I prep as many games as I have time to work on every couple of weeks. It could be 3-4 games, it could be as many as 10 (but I pick a few from the upload if I do that many to have more variation).

Edit:  I think it's safe to say that AR has enough Adventures to last a year or two, and bumping up one game ahead of all those Adventure games in the backlog so that Triton can interview the creator before he really gets inundated with homework won't send AR spiraling down into financial ruin.

Battlecruiser Millenium isn't in the upload.

All your reviews will go up on the site, but when you send a lot of reviews all at once, then expect to have a few held back to give everyone a fair chance to see their work go up.

*Cough*desperate for reviewers*cough*

Forgive me for not deciphering this with the Bible code, but I seem to have been mislead by the part about needing reviewers.
