Okay, out with it.

Lithium? A side effect from lithium, right?

I miss the old BF. He was so good at making me feel like a small piece of crap washed up on some small island somewhere. The way he did it, twas art, it was. Ah. Memories. :sad:

Anyway, thanks chief. I was thinking it didn't belong in the middle of some random thread, but didn't want to make a special thread out of it.

My reviews don't tend to carry much weight here, as it were, but it helps me out to have sort of a record.

Actually, they're pretty consistent!

Can you guys stop getting along? It's weirding me out.

seriously.

On doing the official site reviews, Ya, I think a lot of your stuff would mix up nicely with the other reviews.

The thing that burned me out (and the reason why my Hot Rod review is still sitting there, two years later) was writing the synopses and tracking down every character that was in the issue and where else they appeared and etc, etc.

Maybe if we got everyone to pitch in we could get a lot more reviews up.

I'd be up for that - I've been doing a fair bit of editing for the TF wiki*, so to do reviews from scratch would be a breath of fresh air. I'll bust out some comics and take notes.

* not that you'd know it right now, since they seem to have deleted half the database. Oh, and it's under attack fromt he scariest troll I've ever encountered.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

Okay--can you help me out with the first appearance of some of the bots in the Hot Rod spotlight? See the... well, wherever those reviews are.

Here it is [edit]

i think we need to simplify the review criteria to be honest - they are pretty punishing.

the whole thing was concieved when it looked like there was a finite amount of TF comics and i kind of had the idea that the level of detail would make for a great resource.

But instead its just a bit of a pain innit?

i think a brief summary and then a review would do it really.

maybe keep the quotes?

and i like the glibs.
