With the permission of @Nocturne, I bring to you the long-awaited...
The Marketplace Reviewers Jam is a community event held on the GMC, this one being the first iteration. The main purpose of this Jam is to create some traffic in the Marketplace forum; and to help Marketplace publishers get some feedback and suggestions. The Jam is to be held by me; and YoYo Games and Playtech have nothing to do with the event. The Jam would have three phases:
The Reviewing phase would run from 19th September (12:00 GMT) to 25th September (12:00 GMT)
...and the voting phase would run for the next two weeks from 25th September (12:00 GMT) to 8th October (12:00 GMT)...
Further information would be provided in the Reviews topic, posted (and pinned) in the Marketplace forum once the Jam begins.
The community is allowed to offer prizes. Please PM me to offer a prize.

(Kudos to @DesixStudios for doing me so good logo and support banner!)
Let the hype begin!
What, When, Were?
The Marketplace Reviewers Jam is a community event held on the GMC, this one being the first iteration. The main purpose of this Jam is to create some traffic in the Marketplace forum; and to help Marketplace publishers get some feedback and suggestions. The Jam is to be held by me; and YoYo Games and Playtech have nothing to do with the event. The Jam would have three phases:
- Discussion: Since the idea of such an event is quite fresh and we need to build some hype, a discussion would be held in this topic. Feel free to suggest away changes, support us or ask questions regarding the Jam and how it works.
- Reviewing: When the Jam begins, a topic would be created (and pinned) in the Marketplace forum where you have to link to your reviews; this is mandatory for participating in the Jam. This is a week long phase.
- Voting: In the same topic, voting would be conducted after the reviewing phase ends. You can vote for people (in a particular order) who wrote the most helpful and honest reviews, plus review their reviews during this period. This is two weeks long phase.
The Reviewing phase would run from 19th September (12:00 GMT) to 25th September (12:00 GMT)
...and the voting phase would run for the next two weeks from 25th September (12:00 GMT) to 8th October (12:00 GMT)...
Participation
- To participate, you must have at least 10 posts, that is, you must be an (somewhat) active GMC member. Join us in the discussion topic and introduce yourself here.
- You can review assets of your choice. You are not forced to review assets that others are reviewing.
- All reviews must be written during the timeframe of the Reviewing phase; violation would result in the review(s) being disqualified.
- Note that the Jam would be held on the GMC; not on the Marketplace, so you have to post your review in the GMC topic dedicated to that asset then post in the voting topic links to the topics that you have posted your reviews in.
- If such a topic doesn't exist, consider asking the publisher of the asset to create one.
- You must review at least three assets for your review(s) to count; makes it easy for people to judge your reviewing ability.
Voting
- To vote for the participants, you must have at least 10 posts, that is, you must be an (somewhat) active GMC member. Join us in the discussion topic and introduce yourself here.
- You must vote for at least three reviewers for your votes to be counted.
- Consider writing something about why you think that the people you voted for are good reviewers; that is, review their reviewers.
- Please test/view the assets that the participants have reviewed before voting for them, particularly if they are free assets; not mandatory.
- You must not vote for participants just because they reviewed your asset; there must be a valid reason.
Further information would be provided in the Reviews topic, posted (and pinned) in the Marketplace forum once the Jam begins.
