I started reviewing games some time ago, and in order to get access to games that needed to be reviewed, I had to email Kosta for them. After every game I finished reviewing, I would send in the review and screenshots to Kosta via email, and request another game at the same time. The most recent game that I reviewed took me seven days to receive. I had the game review submitted in two days, and it still hasn't been updated to the site. Someone sent me a private message two days ago and complained to me that he wanted to review that game instead.
I understand that Kosta is busy quite often and can't spend all day receiving email and sending games. However, I found today that people are getting games to review faster than me by something known as "FTP." Now, I have very little knowledge of computers, and I have no idea how to run SmartFTP, even after perusing the manual.
Now, I don't write reviews for abandonia for the status and/or benefits that it brings. I decided to write reviews for abandonia to keep my writing ability in shape, and because abandonia needed people to write reviews for them. I find it frustrating, however, when I have to wait so long to get a game to review, while some other people pump out poorly written reviews (no names). There has to be a better way of reviewing.
