Well of course I have to vote for my own review.

Oh woops, any way to renounce that vote?

**Dudebro** · 01-02-2010, 02:11 AM

I took one vote away from yours DN. I'm not sure if you can vote again though, if not tell me what you wanna vote for and I'll add it.

I voted for Tensers because it's more than a review, the damn thing is 14 pages. It just seems like more effort went into it. Otherwise I would've voted for Cams review for similar reasons.

@Cam- This is like the opposite of the SuperKicks thing. I don't see how the other reviews have a fair chance versus Tensers mega review.

If you don't want people to vote for themselves then you need to make the votes public.

I fully agree.

**CatalystiCam** · 01-02-2010, 11:27 AM

well, if Tenser put all that effort into his, he deserves a chance. Once a review has won though. It cannot be submitted again. Otherwise, you can submit your reviews again.

You like that DB? my latest review was 7 pages long. Yet I'm losing RotM to two other really short reviews (not here, elsewhere). >:-(
Yeah, should I bring my latest review here? I mean, it's great, but it's on the GameCube console itself.

Edit: I'm torn between DN & Tensers, they both put quality wording into there reviews and make it interesting. NT yours was good that way too, I'll take some more time to decide.

Honestly, I don't think entrants should be allowed to vote. But I'll vote for Tenser's Metroid Shrine.

**CatalystiCam** · 01-02-2010, 12:49 PM

ahh... what the hell. Tenser gets my vote.

**Kugyince** · 01-02-2010, 02:04 PM

I appreciate it. Big D helped out a lot on the Metroid Shrine as well so credit goes to him also. Look forward to the E.T. Shrine.

**Tails** · 01-02-2010, 08:46 PM

I voted Tenser.

It doesn't matter how many pages it is really. I only pointed it out here because the average review on RU is probably three paragraphs. Honestly I think Tensers should be called a walkthrough or a help guide, it's a lot more than a review.

**Kugyince** · 01-04-2010, 03:54 AM

It's not a review. Hence the word "shrine".

**sabby** · 01-04-2010, 08:08 AM

Since a review was not in Tenser's I did not vote for it. I have used it for reference and it is an ultra-thorough shrine of Metroid, I would go to that before I would go to a site such as GameFaqs.

Since this is a review contest, I gave it to NinjaTiamat. His review is thorough, well-written and makes me want to try the game (even though I have played/beat it multiple times).

**Tails** · 01-04-2010, 08:13 AM

@Tenser: I was reading the shrine last night, and where the controls are explained it says this is EVG. I assume it was overlooked since it was on EVG first. Just wanted to say something.

**Kugyince** · 01-04-2010, 02:47 PM

Maybe we can change the contest next month.

Gaming Article of the Month maybe?

Thus it could include not only reviews and shrines, but people could also submit series lists and what not.

**samejamesbond** · 01-05-2010, 01:16 PM

When do the next submissions begin? I'd like to submit my Final Fantasy VIII review.

**CatalystiCam** · 01-12-2010, 05:01 PM

Next submissions will be in the last 2 weeks of january.

Nice to see all of the support in this contest, but if you haven't voted, then please vote now. Voting locks itself on the 15th I believe.
