I would like to see more reviews of my models. There are lots of people that
have purchased them, but only MTW-1001 has been reviewed. Being the good
capitalist that I am, I have decided to buy the reviews I want in the open
market.
*Any* review of an MTW model (subject to the following guidelines) no matter
*what* the opinion expressed, will get you a 10 USD store credit at MTW that
you can spend on any merchandise you like. Shipping not included.
Review guidelines are as follows:
- The review must conform to the reviewer's template used in lugnet.reviews.
It' can't just be a one liner, it has to be thorough so others can derive
value from the review.
- The review must be posted to lugnet.reviews
- The review must be sent to me to validate that it conforms to the
requirements and that it was posted after this offer. My judgement on that
is final.
- You must be the author of the review or have the authors agreement that
you get the credit for it.
- The set reviewed may have been reviewed before, although I prefer reviews
of sets not yet reviewed. But your review must be substantially different
than what was posted, not just a copy. My judgement on that is final.
- You must be an owner of the set in question or satisfy me that you had
access to a copy of it somehow (I want reviews based on fact not imagination).
That's it. Those guidelines ensure thorough reviews and honesty but exert NO
control over content. I'm not looking for GOOD or favorable reviews, not
trying to control content... just want some reviews done. The models will
speak for themselves I am sure. Big companies give copies of their product
away but at run size 12 I can hardly afford to do THAT.
Here is an example review that I feel fully conforms to the lugnet.review
guidelines.
http://news.lugnet.com/reviews/?n=824 (don't let the fact that I wrote it
color your judgement... the Story part is not required).
Here is an example that does not conform, but which I would judge acceptable
nonetheless. (based on my whim, but it's a reasonable whim)
http://news.lugnet.com/reviews/?n=838
and another
http://news.lugnet.com/reviews/?n=855
Here is an example that while a helpful review, does not conform to what I
am looking for, as it does not have enough info. (I had to struggle to find
this, most of the recent reviews have lots of info! Bravo to the authors)

and another
http://news.lugnet.com/reviews/?n=752
Again, I am NOT trying to disparage these authors, rather I thank them for
their efforts, these just aren't quite what I am looking for.
Just to sweeten the pot, I will also give a store credit of 5 USD if you
review ANY other GoB set offering. Credits can be combined.
