I've just added us to the new RoughKut.com eFed database. It would benefit us all if you could head over here (http://roughkut.com/efedsx/modules/mylinks/singlelink.php?cid=2&lid=82) and leave a comment and rate us. RK disencourages people voting '10' or '1', so use your discretion. If you genuinely feel we're a '10', say it. If you genuinely feel we're a '1', you're fired. ;D
Note: The option is there to register. I've registered as McCleanGZW. It is optional as you can still comment/rate without it, but your comments will appear as posted by 'Lurker'. If you're doing that, would it kill you to sign off with your character's name or something in the post itself? Thanks.
Charlie

So far a 6.5 (12 votes)? I think we're better than that :-\

Could be other jealous people out there that have nothing better to do than bring other people's scores down to make themselves seem better. Or we just suck lol Meh, I know we aren't perfect but a 6.5 seems a bit harsh. Especially considering that I'm more than positive some people who voted haven't been apart of the fed to experience it long enough to have a judgment. To be honest, I voted an 8. 10 is really out of the question in my book, for any fed, because there is no such thing as a perfect fed. I probably would have given us a 9 a few months ago, but the RP board has died a bit lately (I blame myself as well). Shows are still killer, but lately they've been a few days tardy due to real life/exhaustion/lack of time and commitment (on everyone's part, might I add). Also, we don't have a full functioning site yet, which would more than likely draw a couple of people who go for first impression looks rather than taking the time to find out what the fed's about... But still, a missing site is a turn off for some/most people. 8 seemed reasonable. I gave my reasons why in my comments on RK. But there's been a feeling lurking in me that's been a turn off. We seriously have the potential to be better than we are. I know I do, and it pisses me off that I can't push myself a bit further. That's not to say I won't, though. I'm really hoping this is just some late-summer breather that's going on, and things pick up much better here soon. Of course, real life's first and it's seemed to hit a load of us all at once. This is a serious motivation killer... We need a pick-me-up or something LotC, hopefully

This fed isn't the only decent fed in the same position and to some degree the tournament is to blame having taken the focus of top players who probably are quite a back bone here. Yep and people everywhere seem somewhat distracted from roleplaying but I see a strong bond here and I reckon it's just temporary, it'll pick right back up. And yeah it's the rp board that suffers most as I too have been inactive which is very unlike me... a breather for some who can't stand a Leon rp though so it all works out
I find the rating a bit odd being only just above average and it's the same where I am too... a conspiracy? lol I hope not.
If you like, I will put a vote out there for you guys too.

I wouldn't take it to heart, Seano. That database is used so often that there's bound to be at least a couple of people browsing around the whole time. Someone comes accross us... Clicks the link and immediately thinks 'forum fed', 'no site' or whatever else and has 'seen enough'. The fact that the results weren't clearly visible couldn't have helped either, so I've put a link at the main page to about a half dozen recent shows for the time being.
The reason I've asked you to actually review us as well as simply rating us is partly to counteract whatever negative ratings we might get. Ratings are anonymous and take all of two seconds to do. However, if we get our members going on there and giving an in-depth comment on the fed itself then it puts a face on it all and shows that we are more than a little 'above average'.
Incidentally, seeing as how I uploaded it, I can't actually 'rate' us.

I'm not taking it too much to heart, it's just stupid how ignorant some people can be.

Yeah... It's messed up alright.
I'm just going to ask this one more time, though: If you feel like helping us out, please actually leave a comment on there. There are between 12 and 17 (not entirely sure) handlers here, with a grand total of FOUR comments. No, it's not mandatory but I feel like a jackass for even having to ask this. That database has only ten angle feds there at the moment. It is the IDEAL way for us to get new members to come to us, and we're not using it to its full potential. Why? Some (that is, 20 odd) people have voted on this with the end result being a pathetic 5.86, decreasing all the time. There are feds on there with nearly perfect scores and a load of active comments that, in my eyes, pale in comparison to us. So why are they up there? Because their members are pulling together, taking a minute to sign up there and five to write well thought-out comments. The more active each fed's account on there is, the more likely it is that some wayward efedder will come accross it. I won't ask again after this, but please just even consider doing something to help us out here. It'll benefit us all in the end.

Wouldn't, not won't. And it wasn't the ratings that bothered me at all, it was the lack of comments. Since my amazing speech, though, we've got two more. And we're back to 6.18 or something.

Does this qualify us for the whole "Efed of the Month" thing? Or do you have any idea how that's even chosen? I wouldn't mind having GZW's name in that EotM slot... There's some exposure for ya

I registered for the site and put my comments in for the fed. I hope we get more recognition because some of you guys are absolutely amazing at rping and I still stand to learn alot from all of you.
