This thread is for commentator's updates only! Anypony else not a commentator that comments here will be met with appropriate action. (Flare will find you)
So this thread has been made for 2 reasons:
1- For all Commentators to keep each other updated on what stories are currently being reviewed so that way stories don't get reviewed twice! 2- So the writers have a place to go and see if their stories are currently being reviewed, by what commentator, and what type of review to expect!
ALL Commentatorsmust come check this thread before starting on a story. Once you've picked one you're going to work on, post it like this:
-Follow the color coding system for your category and start with that. (Ex. Sad) So your co-commentators can easily find the stories also in their category being worked on!
-Then put the story your gonna work on, along with its writer. (Tagging story and author not necessary) Also if you'd like you can put what kind of review you'll be doing (review, commentary/review, etc) so the writer knows!
Ex. {Adventure} The Spirits of Equestria By Tidal. Working on Commentary Review Note: Commentators still should comment on the story's page with the link to the completed review when finished.
Don't Forget Always Check This!
Also to make it easier on Admins, when you've completed the review, edit your comment stating it's completion so an Admin can move the story from its respective Submission folder to its respective Reviewed folder and in special cases the Masterpiece folder! If you notice the story isn't moved right away don't worry! It will be! Not all Admins are always active, which is why it's important you state your review's completion so we can check here and move completed stories immediately.
(PM any Admin if you have any problems or concerns. Also if you notice that I didn't update the review counter after you've completed a review, just let me know. I'm on most of the day and I monitor these things, but sometimes I get busy and need a heads up in case I miss something)
If any writers notice their stories are being reviewed and you have any questions, comments, concerns, or requests PM the commentator and let them know. Do it right away so they can receive and reply to your message before the review gets posted! If you have any problems or need anything else just PM Cromegas_Flare or any other Admin.
Thanks guys, review your hearts out! Don't forget, Never Stop Smiling!
I wanna thank every commentator so far that has been following this system! Y'all are doing a wondeful job!
Human I'm going to Review Mordane Stronghoof (Act one: Life and Again) by Mr Stargazer. Have already read the story, so I just need to give it a second read, and I should be golden.
Alright, I'll he starting in on The Private Scrapbook. As it is a decently long story, I suspect that my review for it will not come out for a few days.
The next one in the queue is "A Kingdom Divided", but I don't want to do two 22k stories back-to-back. If Flare doesn't pick that one up, I'll go back to it after I do a couple short stories.
Last Night and Never Too Late need moved to the "Reviewed" folder.
{Dark} Thanks to some unexpected extra free time last night and this morning, A Kingdom Divided is complete and waiting to be moved to the Reviewed folder.
{Alternate Universe}/{Crossover}/{Human} Almost forgot. Doing Arcane Shadow by Florarena Crimsonflame next as a special request.
{Dark} Sleipnir by Slime King is complete, posted, and moved to the Reviewed folder.
The next item in Dark is "Legend of the Sapphire Cave" by somebadauthor, and while I have no objections to reading that story again, I've already commented on it numerous times on its own page, so I'll leave this one to Flare. Instead, I'm going to start alternating between Dark and whichever folders seem to be falling the furthest behind. With that in mind, the next story I'm reviewing is...
Going to take a brief mental break and write up a short story idea I've been playing with (or get more done on my poor novel), but then going to start:
{ROMANCE} I will be starting to read Perception. It's a fairly long story so I probably won't have a review up for a day or two. EDIT: FINISHED AND WILL BE UP SOON!
Next up is Schnitzel in Equestria since I'm trying to get all of the earliest submissions equal review time before doing the repeat authors. Nope, can't do Chowder fairly. Rinnaul or somebody else needs to do that one (has another reviewer signed up for Crossover? I know mber7560 was planning on doing so...)
