The GMC Rad Reviewers is a group of people who all agree to review completed GMC games, as well as give minor feedback to incomplete ones. There are too many great submissions on this forum that get unseen. As such, we are here to help forum-frequenters by recommending games, and to give submitting forum members feedback on their creations. Rad Reviewers are asked to be friendly with the people who make the games under review. Each reviewer has a radically different set of opinions; because we allow that to flourish, better reviews get made.
(This group is officially not run by YoYoGames or the staff. It is a community run group. Staff members are welcome to join alongside other members.)
Membership Requirements:
__Foremost we play and review games that show up here. We also sometimes read the reviews of other members and give each other constructive criticism. When we aren't doing any of that, we hold discussions, such as on how to change the group. During local forum jams, we make an effort to be among those who review the entries. Members may review non-GMC games, but this is encouraged to be done in addition, rather than in place of reviewing GMC games. During forum jam season, we make an effort to help with reviewing. Each member attempts to review one game per month, but this is only a common goal rather than a strict rule.
__I am the current group leader. I run the group, below the mods and admins, and decide major decisions with input from others. All other members are just Reviewers.
Template of a Review: (special thanks to @rui.rosario for contributing some of the format) (Following this template is not mandatory but is recommended by me)

Notice: If you often write reviews that break forum rules, have misleading crucial information, or aren't constructive when critical, you will be removed from the group.

Bulletin Board:
- Here is the new review thread: https://forum.yoyogames.com/index.php?threads/review-periodical-gmcrr.6407/ What do you guys think about it? Should we make changes to its structure?
- We need an artist to make a signature banner for our group to help spread the word
One more thing: If you wish to sign up, I should warn you that the criticism of this group made before March 14th, 2017 is all outdated. I had originally made some bad decisions, but I've long since fixed them.

Membership Requirements:
- You must ask to be a member, and when asking, you are required to write one review of a game, so that we have proof of your willingness, and ability, to actually review a game continually.
- You must make each of your reviews 350-words, minimum. This rule ensures that all of our reviews are long enough to go into efficient detail. 350-words is probably less than you think.
- The games you review must already have a thread on this forum. Each review must be posted on the thread of the game and then linked to the review thread.
- You must listen to the opinion(s) of the people who made the game, and go back to remove typos or false information whenever brought to your attention.
