LIBERTY'S PROFILE

I enjoy playing and creating games (mostly RPGs) and have a love of story and characterisation above graphics. I've been into RM* since '96 and have used all makers - started on the PSX makers, found and used a patched version of the SNES RM, then moved to RM95. When I found RM2K I finally decided to join some forums and I've been a part of the community ever since.

Best of Blogs #015

author=Red_Nova
I'm thinking about renaming the game to Prayer of the H%$d1AD1!$*#fd%@ to avoid any further confusion. Your thoughts?

Also, I like the blog count at the beginning!
It was deliberate this time, don't worry~ ;p

Also, yay, it got noticed! I wasn't sure it would be.

Hurray!
Huzzah!

Best of Blogs #014

You almost got me. I was halfway through writing a reply to the ...wait what the ...

WHY DO YOU MESS WITH MY MIND SO?! ;.;


(but joke is on you - the review proves I'm right. muahahahahaaha111)

Best of Blogs #013

I almost called it Prayer of the Refugee again. >.<;

We had sooooo many blogs this fortnight! About 5 pages worth (that's around 100!) So, yeah, a lot more great blogs this time because there were a lot more blogs in general.

Keep up the great work everyone!

Just so happens I was listening to that song while doing this, so it's no wonder I got the two mixed up.

It's basically a history lesson on the other games in the series. It's okay, sure, but I'd rather spotlight blogs about the on the actual game the blogs are on.

Best of Blogs #011

I read every ramble. XD

By the way, was this series started because the podcast series with Nessiah ended?

No, funnily enough. Nessy and I have been a bit busy lately, both of us, but I'm sure podcasts will be back soon - it just happened that I started this at a time when this happened. XD

Best of Blogs #010

True, true, but I was talking about the What's Written, from whence Best of Blogs spawned.
;p

I'm just poking, though. I don't mind doing it at all~

Best of Blogs #010

Honestly, I think that limiting it isn't the way to go, because the whole aim of making these articles was to see what is out there and shed light on the good blogs so that people would aim for a bit better - just a bit. If I only picked 3-5 blogs there'd be constantly luchino in the top most of the time because her blogs are almost always the full kit. Yours would feature a lot too because again, almost always the full kit. I think the normal rate is a little short - about 10-15 is a good amount. That's around 10/15% of the blogs per fortnight.

That said, again, I have a thing in mind for later down the track which will be a little more restricted, but until then I'll be keeping up the normal pace of the best, no matter the amount. It will vary because the amounts vary, and besides, it's not fair to pick an exclusive list for those who did a great job but fail to be in the 'top 5' or so.

There's no prizes, and it's every week. The current amounts are decent - again, I wanted a larger one for week 10 because, hey, never thought it'd get this far. I'm not notorious for keeping things up. XD Just ask the wisa- uh... let's just say there are some things that have fallen by the wayside before and reaching 10 is a milestone. XD

I do understand that reading all of a larger list might be a bit of a task, but hey, that's what the titles and game names are for. If something catches your interest, I'm sure you'll check it out. There's no onus for not reading every thing on the list, after all.

The system is fine as it is. TT, I think your suggestion would be good if the amount of blogs that would make the cut are consistently this high or higher. However, these numbers...

author=Liberty
The numbers, if you're interested:

Last time - 9/85 were shown off. That's 10.5%
This time - 22/98 were shown off. That's 22.4%

... say otherwise. Sure, consistently making it to the best of blogs page has the potential to devalue the writer (oh, this person made the cut again? Surprise surprise. Next), but devs needs a much exposure as they can get. If they consistently make good blogs that deserve exposure, then I say they've earned a spot on here no matter how many times they have. If anything, it provides constant examples of well-written blogs to look at when deciding what to write in your own.

BTW holy crap that's a lot of blogs to read through. You've got some serious patience!

Ah, I go through them all to check for good ones for Writer spot on the front page, so... I just keep the good ones on a list and double-check them on the right dates. Actually, front page is where I do the juggling between great blog and not-shown-dev. I try not to show off devs that have been on there recently, so that others get more exposure. Of course, sometimes it can be hard when there's only 9 great bits and like, one decent article and 2 okay reviews to pick from... XD

orz

I know why kentona gave me these jobs now. :shakes fist at sky and kentona:


That said, if there did come a time where we consistently got great blogs, I might consider either just showing the best of those off OR do a weekly version instead.
