I am hoping that the way this will work is that a scripter will submit a link to his or her script on RMRK by posting in this topic or creating a criticism thread, which will then be added to the queue for discussion. The top script will be selected for discussion, in which every scripter is invited to review the submitted script and either make suggestions for improvement or to ask questions about the way the script is structured. Comments are not limited to the code, but can also extend to the graphical design of a scene or the customizability of it for non-scripters.
Feedback goes two ways, and the scripter whose script is being reviewed is also expected to help his or her interlocutors when they see something about which they want to know more. No question or criticism should be out of bounds, but malice of any kind will not be permitted. Purely positive reviews of the script are permitted, but the scripter who participates in this should not expect only positive comments; this is not meant to be a way for a scripter to solicit praise. Rather, a script should only be submitted if a scripter honestly believes it can be improved and simply does not know how. In that vein, a submitting scripter is permitted to ask specific questions about their code that they want answered or to direct interlocutors to particular sections of code that he or she thinks is problematic. All criticism and questions should be asked in the script's criticism topic itself.
After five days, that script will be taken off and the next script in the queue will be moved up. The order of the queue may be managed in order to ensure all participating scripters have the opportunity to have one of their scripts analyzed before we analyze more than one of another scripter's scripts. Ie. if A submits two scripts before B and C submit theirs, the queue may be modified so that only one of A's script is analyzed, then B's, then C's, before moving on to A's second submission. Once a script is finished, it will be moved to the Completed Reviews along with links to every solicited post.
As this idea is fairly new and untested, I invite anyone to make comments or suggestions on how to improve its implementation. It will start with the first script on Thursday, the 25th of October, since I want to give some time for the idea to become known, but please feel free to submit scripts in the meantime.
Remember, this idea can only work with enthusiastic participation from every scripter! Please review every script submitted with the attention and spirit that you want other scripters to have when reviewing your scripts.
