Heck yeah! You just won points. You can spend them on a Duke Nukem action figure or a Jurassic Park poster that roars at you.

I find this blog to be extremely useful. I just recently came across MarbleHornets and EMH, got really excited about them and tried to dig into some of the other stories, only to quickly realize there are like a million of things now. It only gets more intimidating when you have a ton of blogs cross-referencing each other. I feel like this is a good way to shine the spotlight one blogs that do something different and unique with the mythos. I really like how pretty much every review so far goes pretty in-depth with what the story does new or interesting, without actually giving anything away or spoiling the plot. I also like how even though all the reviews so far are positive, they aren't afraid to address some of the weaknesses. This would probably be very useful for people thinking of doing their own Slendy story since they'd get a better idea of common pitfalls a lot of these blogs seem to fall into.

Really liked the Slenderbingo part especially. I notice a lot of those trends even though I've only read a small percentage of the Slender stuff out there.

Very useful stuff. I can't wait until the next review.

Whooooo, roaring poster! *.*

Well, I did absolutely nothing to contrubute to the fun that is SlenderBingo. I only wrote the review... May I keep the poster? o.o

So if we find any new Slenderblogs that look good, can we post the links here?

Yes but you must feed it.

With your body.

It's like Little Shop of Horrors only you die the first time it happens.

Duke Nukem action figure then?

Oh, I'll find someone to sacrifice it to my poster. Hail Tyrannoposter Rex!

glomple: Of course you can. I can't guarantee it will be reviewed, though. Smile

Here's one, just for kicks. Interesting and ongoing.

Well; I'm back from my 10 day hiatus, and boy, how the forum has changed. I'm going to check out some of these new ones and see if they're at all worth reading. In the meantime, however, the Slender Review is looking for more valued contributors: I was hoping three people would be enough to keep it going, but perhaps not. If you're interested in contributing to the site, PM me! Applications are re-opened, baby!

The list is up to date, as far as I know.

Don't bother with the "potential" ones, it seems most of the blogs I put on there turn out not to be slenderblogs.

Hmm, I've been doing a fair bit of reading. I'll be honest, it wasn't until this project that I realized how few new and interesting blogs there are.

I've got two options: Look at a fair few of the older ones (some of which I haven't read/watched all the way through yet (ie. Jonclubs, The Stopping Lights), some of which I just feel don't need much more exposure (ie. EMH, Seeking Truth)). Or, I could look at some of the less good ones, and point out where I feel they're going wrong. Thoughts?

You've done a couple of fairly positive reviews so far. Time to get negative, I say. Twisted Evil

I say get all the minor not-as-well-known blogs out of the way first. People already know EMH and Seeking Truth, but there are a lot of blogs people haven't seen due to the ever increasing flood coming in. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a few of the older blogs that people have forgotten about (In My Head, In My Mind and Curious Little Girl come to mind.)

Yeah, I'd say do a few of the newer ones that you think have some potential. Maybe point out ways they could improve as well as review them?

Also, if you need an extra hand, I do a lot of review-based stuff, both in writing and on Youtube. I'd sink my teeth into a few of them.

Are you going to review No Escape from reality? I thought you said you would.
