AlysiumX is a reviewing machine! Great job fellow!

Anyway, this has awarded you with the NDWR honour medal!.

Thanks guys. *thumbs*

[Doom_Dude]

Nice job AlysiumX. :)

News is posted. I can go back into my lair now. :p

[PumpkinSmasher]

Is he the first NDWR medal reciever?

Great job!

[FATAL]

Oh, I noticed the medal thing just now.

Well surely AlysiumX deserves it... whatever it is.

[AlysiumX]

I think we may be falling behind, we need more reviewers.

[Dutch Devil]

Don't look at me for reviewing maps its not my kind of thing, ill stick to reading them ;)

I've been a bit busy lately. I'm back in action now, though. Danimetal works 14 hours a day and earns 25 euros a month, of which 20 euros goes to ADSL bill. He can't be blamed. Blame me instead, I am the source of all problems on this world and Danimetal is the greatest person in the world and I worship him as a god.

Danimetal´s edit: Time for mod wars :D!!!!.

[AlysiumX]

I'm not blaming anybody, i work 40 hours a week(I also have a girl i gotta spend time with) my scedule is pretty much get home at 11pm and stay up till 4am doing stuff, but I'll be honest, this week ive been workin alot on other projects, some that really need my attention(NDCP) and some that don't as much. Really the ndcp has got me at a stand still, after i finish that map though, i dont see myself signing up for anymore "big" projects for a good while, ill start consentrating on this more. I really want to do more reviews for this thing, but as everyone else my time is very limited. I was thinking, maybe i should post on some other forums recruiting, maybe zdoom, and maybe at doomworld, but i don't know if they would be intrested seeing as were kinda reviewing what has already been "Some what reviewed" there.

[Danimetal]

Well, I don´t see the NDWR thing as something that binds persons... Not at all, in one of the first threads its stated that we do this for fun and because we enjoy it. It´s a hobby, I mean, personally, I review when I can and have as much fun with it as I can. When a bunch of reviews is done we post an issue and it keeps on going on.

If I think this whole reviewing thing has something positive it is related to be non-rushed so you can take your time to say what you want to say :).

[JohnSix]

How do you choose the wads to be reviewed?

[AlysiumX]

doomworld /newstuff & submissions

I didn't know if we were trying to keep up to date with most wads that come out in /newstuff, like this week were 2 newstuffs behind, I didn't know if we were trying to keep up.

[FATAL]

We update the list at every issue.

[Danimetal]

That doesn´t mean that we try to keep up to date... It´s a very complicated issue: keep up to date means a bind and that means pressure and lesser enjoyment... Fatal, you haven´t been reading the edits I´ve done to your posts, have you :P?.

And by the way, even though you've called me danimetal for quite some time, I'd like you to start calling me shithead from now on.

[AlysiumX]

Ah ok, i understand, reviewing for enjoyment..... well if were reviewing for enjoyment, why not just review what ever we want, instead of immediately looking to /newstuff, I mean if somebody once to get something reviewed they can just submit it right?

[FATAL]

We take the list from newstuff just to ease up the reviewers' work. It's easier to pick from an existing list than to always add the wad. Of course, if you don't find a good wad in the list, you can put a one you like there and review it then.

Danimetal, I refuse to call you shithead, it´s my one and only name so I won´t let anybody else use it LOL!!!.

[AlysiumX]

k, me was just wondering some things :)

[PumpkinSmasher]

so when will the next editon come out?

[rustyslacker]

Yes, that's what I'd like to know. PS is probably eager for his review ;) as am I.

[Danimetal]

We´re not sure since we´re a little busy with real life and things like that... It´s sure it´s gonna come out, just give it time... About PS´s wad, I´m not sure if it´s gonna get reviewed in the next issue. What you can expect in the future is the NDCP review :D.

[PumpkinSmasher]

well I'll look forward to an NDCP review. that should be good. I just wish these things came out on a more regular basis.

[Danimetal]

We´ll need more reviewers for that or to get paid for it ;).

[FATAL]

Yeah, one could think of me as a lazy person, but then there's danimetal!

Us two combined...






Hehe, yeah, we write reviews when we feel like it. I think that it's the strenght of this team.

[Danimetal]

A new issue in the website is up from yesterday or something. Still there´s the forum work to be done but you can check it out :).
