Total Posts: 214 | what about me? What did i do? It's so fun rating my own files and being all serious. So don't think I'm crazy when you see Jonny23451 and then contact me at Jonny23451@yahoo.com. Same person, just having fun rating my files, cuz i doubt people really read them, unless they really wanna c wut the game is about and wut other people say. Some are intersting though... Oh and the reason why a lot of my files are out there right now is becuase I just discoverd this site.

Edit | You should probably write in your review that you are the author, just so that people know that it is your own opinion at their first glance. If you don't make that clear, it is considered to be bad etiquette. |

I meant reviewing is fun. Your programs are useful, wouldn't exactly call them fun. Actually, I wrote a review for Trig Solver.
@Johnny
You shouldn't really review your files. Read what Z said two years ago:
"Hey guys, we appreciate all of your input but I'd like to mention some DO's and DONT's as far as all reviewing goes. Reviews are now reviewed by the calcgames.org administrators, so don't expect your review to show up unless you follow these guidelines.
> When writing a review, make it look good. Don't make it look sloppy. Use correct grammar, punctuation, and capitalization.
> Constructive criticism is welcomed for all files, including ones made by the calcgames.org team (Tankers, SAS, etc.). Please don't write flames. Flames make people feel bad and are insulting. All flames will be removed and your account will most likely be terminated.
> Don't write a review if you have nothing to say about the file you're going to review.
> Although it's allowed, it's best you don't review your own files, but rather let others do so. It may take some time, but it will be a more correct description of what others think of your file.
> Justify the point score you give a file you're reviewing by filling out a comment field. This will let file's author know the weaknesses of their program and will provide them with info for improvement.
> Comment field if your general review field. Make your review as long as you like, but we prefer you keep concise and focused on the file you're reviewing."
These guidelines are good to keep in mind. It's more authentic if we review other people's files =)

Like said in my review post, you can review your files but that's not recommended (as quoted a few posts above). That generally why you have a file description and should generally speaking review your file there. If we were to disallow review by file's own author, we could just modify our script.
We decided to just let people review as many files as they want. Even if they review their own works, this is already something and is obviously better than no reviews.
