Thank the gods someone gets it. You all act like this is some great injustice. Again I say:

For those who have yet to recieve a crit or WANT another one.

It's simple: If you don't want the service, don't use it. Show your indifference by being indifferent, rather then spamming up our thread, and wasting the time of those who do want it.

This is actually a really good idea--I might use its services because there are some works I have done that have received no critiques and I'm a little bit frustrated.

I just recieved one of the best crits of my life...courtesy of the CCF. (Read it here.) They were thorough, truthful, covered all their bases, and splattered the right amount of compliments in with the more negative aspects of the critiques.

However, just because I supported the CCf, I don't want my good friends who crit for free to stop critting me. I wanted to experiment. I want a variety of insights.

Anyway, thanks CCF.

-Kylan

I've seen a couple of the CCF critiques, and they're really good. Now I'm thinking this business will actually work. Very Happy

Wow. Kylan's crit. Completely worth the points. Now I see why you guys want paying for it! That's one decent critique.

La, indeed, they are good! (See their review of one of my stories here Nothing wrong with a bit of shameless self-advertising.... Wink )

Sayou, like Kylan, I don't want people to stop critiquing me for free- I like a variety of viewpoints, and that one story didn't get much attention Razz

Thanks, CCF!

I must say I was deeply impressed by the quality of the critique I received. The CCF clearly took a decent amount of time analysing my piece properly. Although it was only one point of view I appreciate it greatly and would recommend the service to any other writer lacking more... thorough reviews.

A friendly *bump*

Just reminding everyone we're still here. It would be most beneficial if this could be stickied.

Um Cabassi? I sent my 50 points five days ago. I still haven't recieved a crit, which is the maximum of your promised deadline. If I don't get a crit for my (hopefully) well spent credits, then you will lose a customer. Check your inbox.
