Reviewing Booth

I decided to start another brilliant way to waste my time. From this moment, you all can send me (or post here) requests to review one of your uploads. You can't send/post more than one proposal though, and if you make your request, you can't request another review in a week. Also, if you tell me what rating I am supposed to give your upload, I will not review it and you can't make anymore requests, so in other words you will just be "banned" from this.
I am doing this because J2O strongly needs reviews and I am willing to write some, yet I lack any ideas what to review and barely anything in the Review Ideas section meets my standards.
Also, if any of you are curious, my level/levelpack (as in, when I am reviewing a levelpack, level sections will apply to all the levels) reviews will look like this:
  • I am reviewing and rating (on a scale from 1 to 5) each section of the level/levelpack in this order: Eyecandy (included tile errors and creativity), Gameplay (included flow, design and creativity), and Eventing (events' balance, creativity).
  • I write a short summary of the level's/levelpack's pros and cons.
  • I write an overall section which is there so you don't have to read the whole review.

Tilesets ratings will look like this:
  • I am reviewing and rating (on a scale from 1 to 5) each section of the tileset in this order: Theme, Graphical Quality (replaced with Conversion Completiness when I'm reviewing a conversion), Functionality (included masking), Event Compatibility.
  • I write a short summary of the tileset's pros and cons.
  • I write an overall section which is there so you don't have to read the whole review.

There are also a few restrictions about your uploads:
  • I will not review your level if it's ripped off someone else's level.
  • I will not review your level if it's got over 10 reviews, unless the reviews are insufficient according to today's standards.
  • I will not review:
    • Conversions from games I haven't played.
    • Jazz1/Jazz2 utilities.
    • Music remixes.
    • Uploads violating the J2O rules and to be deleted.
  • Constant complaining about the review being not posted will result in banning from the booth.

That is all. Send me your requests anyway you'd like to. I will try to review your upload as soon as I receive your request. If you are not satisfied with quality of my review, point out what don't you like and I will try to do my best to improve it. However, if you keep on bugging me with such messages, I will just ban you from the booth. And if you feel that I might've underrated your level, then I can't help and you will just have to live with it. Take what is given.
