Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Can I be a curator? I'll pick the projects that have been put forth effort and deserve to be front paged like games or movies or animation???

UPDATE:
im now a scratcher  smile  and now learned more about the forums so I deleted that smiley thing  wink

UPDATE 2:
*UPDATED REASONS*

okay, if you pick me to be curator, i'll pick projects that:
have tons of effort and has less than the views that i expected it to have.
creative
deserves to be front paged.
If remixed then has lots of changes and has credit to original

Examples of projects that seem like they deserve front page.
maximanz-the apple part 1 and 2
t0fu-Rooms concept


I won't pick projects that:
have already been front paged
took less than a minute to make
very low effort
made by people known already to lots of people

Examples of projects NOT going to be curated by me
All of the well known ppl's projects
and that's about it

BACKGROUND OF ME:
Joined on march 2011

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

hey! i'm waterhorse and i would love to be a curator, 1 of the reasons is because i've never been on the front page. i like just about any projects with animals in them,especially horses. they are projects that are animations,games, or just drawings. here is a project that i really like: http://scratch.mit.edu./projects/Rachel-SuperFilly/1761769

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Can I be curator?

I'd pick:
complex simulations
complex projects by little known people
AMVs with a lot of remixes
complex games
projects with a lot of effort

(when I say complex, I mean projects with a lot of scripts)

I wouldn't pick:
projects by famous Scratchers(they already have enough projects in the Most viewed, and loved columns)
1 sprite, 1 script projects (unless the script does a lot)
easy-to-win games
coloring contests
projects with little effort

Please pick me!

Great speech, but the Scratch Team would like to see a bit longer speeches (maybe a paragraph or so) that include why you would like to be curator, and specific projects you might curate.

I'm to lazy XD

Well then you might not get the position.

As I said a few several pages back, they don't NEED everybody to be curator, so it shouldn't be
Fine, I'll be curator.
It's
I'd like to be curator because...
Exquisite speeches get chosen.

And so, if you don't apply effort, you don't get results.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I am interested in becoming a  scratch curator because I want to show scratch the most creative projects.

A lot of projects are really creative but dont get a lot of popularity, I think that should change so that the more creative you are, the more popular you get.

thanks.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

If at all possible I would like to be a curator.

I like games that are hard but fun. here are some examples: hellicopter 3 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/orangeoz/1825945

portals http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/zard/1730335

But I also like art things like magic pen, http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/DaPinkster612/1702805

or just about any kind of platformer like infinity platformer http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/nielsytime/1162601

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would be interested in becoming a curator for scratch.  I would choose a large variety of projects, such as games, music, art, and animated videos, as I also upload a variety of programs.  I would try to be an unbiased judge, yet I like to see the projects of those whom are not very popular.  This would give them a moment's glory when they are featured.  If I am made a curator, I would immediately begin looking for a few of each of the categories mentioned above, as well as some new, yet amazingly good projects uploaded by all people of all programming styles.

I know you probably get about 100,000,000,000,000 messages a... second from people asking to be curators. I believe I should be a curator. I check out the front page to see what people like.

I can tell if people put a bunch of effort into a scratch project, good or not. So I look out for people who aren't famous, but are more of a person ready to get noticed. People who have talent and need to be encouraged just a little. The big break they've been waiting for.

I get that people get annoyed and quit because their not famous. I want to stop that, basically, at least by helping three people grow. So everybody can be entertained by those people who needed one person in the crowd to shout their name who they weren't best friends with.

I know that it is not as long as other people speeches, but I still hope you pick me. I know I don't chose, but there is a scratcher who needs the push. I just hope I can help her.

That's a really great idea! I hope you get to be curator someday!
