With pleasure we welcome Knight @Fortis of the After Watch and Knight @Messenger of the After Watch!

We wait patiently to see if Knight @Aley will officially join us or just fight for the noble cause without pledging herself.

Mwuahah.

Also, be immensely proud of yourselves, Knights of the After Watch.

We have held the fort for 25 hours.
you can message me with anything: questions, review requests, rants
are you a green room knight yet?
have you read this week's Squills?

Alright, After Watch, I figure it's time we step up our game.

It's not enough just to clear a work out of the Green Room.
We must make sure that each of our reviews are of excellent quality to bring honor to our Order's name.


Reviewing Honorably
At the most basic level, your review needs to contain at least one suggestion for how the author can make their work better. If you can't find something they could improve on, leave a comment instead of a review.

Also, Knights are creatures of honor, which means that padding your review character count with quotes or rambling should make you feel icky inside. If you don't have that much to say, just say as much as you have.

Remember this: Reviewing is not about the numbers. It's about helping other writers.



And here are some extra references with more hints to being a reviewing powerhouse that you might enjoy:

Make your Order proud.

P.S. Welcome, Knight @Aley of the After Watch.

Fellow Knights of the After Watch, the chapters are starting to pour into the Green Room! As you continue to conquer reviews if possible when reviewing a chapter try to read/skim through the last couple of chapters before reviewing the Green Room one. This way our reviews can continue to be as helpful as possible!! Keep strong in the battle!

there is no season as achingly temporary as now

I go to sleep for one night and the Green Room fills up to EIGHT?!

Okay, I'm not THAT full of myself. I think I'll go back to not sleeping and reviewing instead. *prods @lostthought*

@FatCowsSis
Well, considering this is an Order of the Knights of the Green Room...
So you wanna be a Squire? That ought to solve the problem. (I think. Have we actually discussed Squires in Orders yet, @Hannah?)
