I've had a pretty stressful week. Finals are coming up for med school, I haven't had the oppertunity to play many games, hang out with my girlfriend, or do capoeira because my Mom got a post-surgical infection, which is pretty serious, so I'm running to and fro. Feels like a lot of real life garbage hit me at once, but a sort of metaphysical life preserver was thrown to me by some gentlemen who liked the quality of my reviews. Here is the pm that was sent to me. Review Recommendation: Tekken: Dark Resurrection (PSP) To Squids-Ahoy: Due to the quality of your review, I am glad to extend an invitation to join The Community Contributions Union. Your review will appear on our union bulletin and in the next issue of ReviewSpotting within the "Week in Review" section as one of the best reviews for Tekken: Dark Resurrection. Winner of the GoScer for Best UCB/Union, The CCU is dedicated towards establishing a community of Gamespot and GameFAQ users that have submitted quality reviews and editorials. Many of our staff writers - DrFish62, MrCHUP0N, ShenLongBo, and myself - are not only moderators for GameSpot, but also staff writers for other professional websites (Trigames.net, GamerWithin, and honestgamers), so if you're interested in getting feedback from other video game journalists, we have the experience to assist you. Our union has representation from a host of international members, GameSpot moderators, and writers from other websites. We believe that great player reviews are being drowned out by all the one-paragraph, spamming reviews and that they are not being featured as they should. In response, the union features ReviewSpotting, a longstanding "Review of the Week" magazine posted in the General Games Discussion Forum, on a weekly basis. We encourage your submission into the contest, which is open to all GameSpot members. As a member of our union, you can request critiques on your reviews and editorials in a writer's workshop where members critique the works of others; and most importantly, you can share your work with those that write about video games as much as we like to play them. Sincerely, Draqq_Zyxorian Head Officer of The Community Contributions Union Moderator for GameSpot I feel vindicated for the level of effort I put into my work here at gamespot, not just in my blogs which hopefully leave readers with a little nugget of something juicy to chew on, but also my reviews which are written with professional quality. It's nice to see someone encouraging perfection in gs members for the sake of improving the site, and I feel as if a second wind has kicked in.
