Welcome to the Map Review section

[Doom_Dude]

FP! hahahahahaha hope this turns out to be a good idea. Good luck to danimetal and Fatal our resident Map Review moderators and instigators. :p

[Jimi]

Hmm.. How does this work?

[Doom_Dude]

It's all explained in the original thread that was posted in Editing: http://forums.newdoom.com/showthread.php?t=28908

[FATAL]

It isn't yet functional, but every step like this one helps us get to the goal!



Hehe, so many tools to fiddle with. Oh, the forbidden fruit! I can't wait to get a good reason to use some of the tools! :D

Almost beat you to it DD.

http://userweb.suscom.net/~loudog/emptyforum.png Thats why I posted a short message and then went and edited what I really wanted to say and fixed the subject title. :P

[rustyslacker]

w00t! This rocks! As soon as my map is done I'm submitting it for a review!

[Aliotroph?]

LOL Does that mean I can't review it because I've been giving you advice on building it? Meh, who cares? I'm a nasty nitpicker anyway. :D

So now we just need to figure out how we're coordinating what gets reviewed and how to track it, and we need to get more people. :)

People? It's people! Lol. N/M. It's just thta, this is like the most awesome thing i've seen here since I joined! *bang*

If Fatal likes the review I sent him, and will have me, i'm in for the long haul. *weird*

[Danimetal]

Well, I´m more than glad to come back from my crazy trip and find this. Fatal and I will have to work hard on the next days to get this working and find a team of reviewers but I´m sure that everything will work once the wheel has been set to turn :)

[rustyslacker]

Well, I guess this confirms the theory that only nasty trolls get to be mods. ;)

I'm not nasty either. :D I just get a wee bit cranky when I forget my morning cup of java, or late evening glass of merlot/sangria. *drinky*

How do I keep missing stuff? I must be missing stuff too much.

And Misc. got renamed to General, too! Why do I keep missing stuff?

Anyways, good luck with this... I *may* join the reviewing team sometime if I feel I'll have the time to do so. After all I've got Paranormal, school and stuff that is neither, so...

That´s what I call "Excuses" :P. Now serious, we´ve sort of assembled a team and we´re to contact them really soon to start trying to do something. Fatal and I hope that the results will encourage more people to join the team so all aims are reached faster and with less work.

Take into consideration that with, say, five people, it´s completely impossible to take all the wads in a week and do DECENT reviews of them so surely you won´t have all wads reviewed until we get more people to do the work.

As you can guess, we´re taking submissions for people who wants to review... Anyway, stay tuned since hopefully there will be news on this soon.

[Danimetal]

All right people out there... In case you didn´t notice, we have new threads here about how does this work and further information. Some reviewers are doing their work, some reviews have been even written and well, we will have the first issues somewhere on the next week :).

Now start encouraging all the people playing wads and reviewing them just for you :P.

[FATAL]

Yup, the reviewing has started, and next weekend you can start reading and drooling at them. :D

Oh yeah, and I almost forgot.

Join people, join!

[General Greivous]

Can't wait for a review of Scourge: Lunar Eclipse (http://www.retetched.com/teamkill) once TeamKill is done with it ;)

[Aliotroph?]

Wow, shiny. Glad Melfice found something fun to work on.

Just got the e-mail with all the important stuffage. Going to check that out when I'm done with my pizza.

If it´s on the newstuff folder it will be possible that someone claims it to review it... Of course, the more we are, the more work we do so *ahem* read the "recruting" part :P.

Already did my first review....sorry if i've been out of touch-personal business. :) No foul, eh?

Only problem is, I suck at taking screenshots, so they're currently in black and white(And some have graphical artifacts, though minor and almost un-noticeable) until I get used to the capture software, probably by next review.

*thumbs*

This stuff is great, ain't it? Too bad we don't have any REAL female reviwers, to like give the feminine opinion and stuff. ;) Lol.

Like "This WAD could use some new textures, something brighter and fresher." or "There could be more flowers and puppies in this map."?

Nah, just kidding, please don't hit me women of this board! :)

[FATAL]

Really, this one map could've used some flower sprites in the outside area...

Also I think that the furniture could've been re-arranged

[Danimetal]

And also the dust could be wiped out. I need more detail.

[FATAL]

You're a two thousander now, be happy!


Damn, you're closing in! I need to spam... uhm, spread intelligence more.

[Aliotroph?]

I walked into one hell of an evil wad for my review... :D Very cool, but nasty on the time and frustration.

[FATAL]

There's nothing a good ole' save - loading can't do. ;)

Yeah, mate, no hurry about it. Just don't spend the whole month.

[Danimetal]

Anyway Alio, we´re issuing very soon so I guess your review won´t be in the current issue unless you´re really quick :).

[DeathManager]

*bliss* *wacky* *flip* If I Had Joined Earlier I Would Have Been Here Before You Lot!!!!!!!

[FATAL]

...

What the fuck?

[Danimetal]

It´s some Capital letters experiment... No doubt about it. Anyway DeathManager, remembeer that you´re not allowed to open new threads (just a reminder) and that there´s a "staff test" to pass before becoming a member.

That's NOT what I meant, hence the wink smilie. Lol.

Flower Power! Of DOOM! lOL. A flower gun, ala Grim Fandango. Sprout the SOBs. *diablo*

Take the smaller ones, then work your way up to bigger ones. It helps, believe me. *rolleyes*

Agreed....unless you save over your ONLY save while having less than 5 health, while surrounded by Cacodemons that is. *bliss*

[Lutrov71]

Am I allowed to request an already released wad for reviewing?

[Danimetal]

If you ask nicely enough... Now serious, of course. The main point here is to inform people about wads and such so a wad doesn´t need to be new to be reviewed here. For example, PumpkinsSmasher´s wad wasn´t completely new when he sent us. Just follow the instructions in the appropriate thread (look for "Submissions" or something like that in these forums) and it will get the same treatment that all wads out that week.

We´ll be waiting for your submission :).

[FATAL]

We´ll be waiting for your submission :).
And you'll be waiting for the review... For a long time.

Haha, we'll review wads just as fast as it's possible to stay fun.

[Lutrov71]

When I send an email to dwreviews@gmail.com requesting a review I get a delivery status failure. :(

[Danimetal]

Could it be the cause that we´re "nd" and not "dw" here?. I mean, I think you mistyped the adress :). Mail us at ndreviews at gmail.com and if the "submitting" part reads "dw" let us know so we can correct.

[PumpkinSmasher]

the information thread does say to send it to dwreviews@gmail.com, looks like someone need to fix that and make it ndreviews. I just PM'd my map to danimetal, but idk if they want everyone doing that.

[Danimetal]

Fixed. There was some typo in the original posts.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE DANIMETAL!?

It's all your fault. You're gonna have to review 30 wads to the next issue because of this horrible mistake!

[Danimetal]

Err... Fatal, you´re dismissed :D.

[PumpkinSmasher]

i think 30 is a bit extreme, but i'll be glad to send him some of my wads if he needs some maps to review.

[AlysiumX]

I am now apart of the team, and will look forward to reviewing for you guys :)

[FATAL]

Haha, you're not "apart" from us. :p
A part would fit a bit better.

[PumpkinSmasher]

haha the new guy made a typo.
I hope he doesn't do that in his reviews...lol

[AlysiumX]

na i try to make them here so they dont end up in the reviews *bliss*
