I will have to test it out soon for you, RielCZ . But I am excited! And busy, which is why I haven't tested it yet. But soon! Yeah, I saw you requesting someone to maybe make the next board -- and I could have, but I thought I'd just let you try it out.  Thanks for testing it, I'm glad it works!  And I'm glad that you didn't seem to have much difficulty with it. |

Yeah, I saw you requesting someone to maybe make the next board -- and I could have, but I thought I'd just let you try it out. Thanks for testing it, I'm glad it works! And I'm glad that you didn't seem to have much difficulty with it. Yeah, once I got to the program itself, it worked very nicely. There are a few things that I don't know if you can fix or not though that might put someone off on trying it out. That link in your post leads directly to a file to download, which is a bit disconcerting. I don't know, I generally expect links on the internet to lead to webpages that then have a place for me to download something. It feels a bit like I accidentally clicked on the wrong thing or something. And then when it came to running the program, Windows wouldn't let me at first, as it had no author tied to the program or something like that, I had to click more information, and then it gave me an option to run anyway. Now, I happened to trust you and your link and program, but I could see how it might seem suspicious to others, and scare them away from using your helpful program. I guess, can you make a landing page for the program, or at least put a warning in your post that it's a link to download a file? And I'm not sure how you make windows happy with an author, but I guess that might be another thing to warn about as well. But yeah, it works very nicely, and I thought the images you used were a nice touch! |

This is veering the topic a little, but an idea came to me that I'm curious others' thoughts on. In regards to providing incentive to review, how would people feel about a badge or badges related to giving reviews? It could be a single badge you get for providing a certain amount of reviews, or perhaps a tiered system where you get a badge every 10, 25, 50, etc. reviews.

There is already The Reviewer's Badge, but it's pretty generic, it's simply given upon request, you don't really earn it in the way you're suggesting. There's probably other ways to add some incentive to reviews as well, like Moni's Review Swap thread. I don't know how much we can expect in terms of reviews, though, as the part of the forum active in the Times is rather small at the moment. But I think every little bit helps! |
