    as always, if I forgot you, please reach out to me or smiles we're super sorry in advance

    @Lightning Dash // $15,650
    Welcome!!! This was a great first attempt at grading a pretty complicated piece. Just bear in mind that for more advanced authors/longer stories, you can start digging into the details: instead of saying that the plot was interesting or the details were overall good, you can get into the nuances of which specific plot elements kept you engaged or what stylistic things were particularly descriptive (or not). Don't be afraid to reference specific events/quotes -- a good grade for one story won't read like another good grade for a different story, because each one should have feedback specific to its respective story.

    BUT ALSO YOU DID LOTS OF GOOD THINGS HERE AND THIS WAS A VERY GOOD START.


    @Menegoth // $30,160
    • Projection // strong moderate // $9,900
      dis was a really good balance between critique and explanation for a fledgling author. good stuff!
    • The Lost Expedition // moderate + 3k regrade bonus // $14,400
    • Ayyy Weir's Second Story // basic + 3k regrade bonus // $5,860
      Grading shorter stories is tricky -- there's really not much meat to talk about, but don't be afraid to elaborate on some of the points (ie what do you mean by a "precise ending"), especially if you don't pass the story on the first try.

      GOOD STUFF THX FOR HANDLING THE BACKLOG


      ely's wages graded by smiles for dat #nobias; claiming:
      @Elysia // $28,500
      • wormy, wormy // strong basic // $3,300
        ch. 6 // complex // $25,200
        excellent work!! I struggled for like five minutes whether to give wormy wormy a moderate, but I remember seeing somewhere that moderates should only go for stories that are 25k plus and I was like welp and I don't want the curators to be hating. BUT REALLY GOOD WORK.
