Hi people of scratch,

I would like to be a curator for a number of reasons, all of which i will state here 
I am very active on scracth, and as such i see a lot of good projects which just havent been noticed, I like seeing all types of projects and i wont discriminate against art as art is the basis of games, you cant have a good game if you dont have good art for it 

I can promise you that the projects you will see on the front page while if im curator will be good, and they will be games, art and more 

I would focus on putting scratchers and projects that havent been noticed on too the front page, as long as they deserve it 

Thanks for reading and,
Scratch On!

Well you seem like a smiley person.

what was your first clue?

I don't think you exactly didn't get picked; Lightnin said once that a break of two months or so between speeches was enough to guarantee your speech wasn't missed - it was only a week or so.

I would like to become a currator. Is that how this works?      Sorry if I went to the wrong place...

You came to the right place, but you should give a paragraph speech saying why you should be curator, that will CERTAINLY up your chances! 

I got a question! Is it okay if a put currently running for curator in my sig? I'd like to!

It wouldn't mater, but it's not an election and it's only decided  by Scratch Team.

Well, I’ve been looking at this thread for a while now - since I noticed an interesting project on the curator spot. I didn’t actually consider becoming a curator until greenflash curated my project, MAZE 2, way back in mid-March. It was then I realised how it felt to see your own name on the front page. I knew then that I wanted to share this feeling with others – it was simply so good!

Now, you may be wondering “If Wolfie had been considering this opportunity since mid-March, why didn’t she apply for it?”. A number of reasons – the first being that I wanted to have an organised session as curator, so that I knew exactly what I’m going to curate each day. The second, is that I didn’t feel like writing a speech until now    (actually, I wrote this speech a month or so ago, but forgot to post it >.<)

I will choose three new projects every day, with a theme (eg, platformers, 1s1s games, OSes ‘n’ Apps, and more). I love projects that can be played over and over, without getting boring, or that can be learned from in some way (tutorials! TUTORIALS!    I have only chosen two tutorials to curate so far  ). Another point that I considered when creating my list of “picks” was finding something that would fit the genre, but still being a bit different to the other projects I choose for that day.

In fact, I have a list that currently has 26 projects of 12 different themes (my list is a little thin-on-the-ground at the moment – I have to work out two more genres, and find another 16 projects or so). As I said earlier, I’m planning on choosing 42 projects in total, as that is the answer to Life, The Universe a- wait a minute, in this case, it’s because I would have a 14 days, with 3 projects a day. Ideally, I’d choose 96 projects (‘cuz it’s the best numbah evah 8D), but that would mean that I would choose 6.9 projects per day... or one update with 3 new projects every 10.4 hours... which would mean that some people would have projects on at peak times, and others wouldn’t. And that’s unfair... D:

Back on topic, I’d love to take this on! 

EDIT: Also, I would try to curate projects by active users where possible, so that people who are still involved in Scratch would have a "time to shine" while they are active

Are you trying to take over Scratch?!

Joking xD

hellooo pplz. i'm a decent animator on scratch who would like to become a curator.
i have several friends who make decent projects on scratch, but are under-apreciated. i want to help out some of those people by becoming a curator and letting some good projects get some good publicity. I hope you pick me for curator as soon as you can! XD

Ooohh. c: I've always wanted to be a curator. X3

Not exactly sure how to say this but STILL. 

If I was a curator, I'd search all over Scratch for projects with nice animation, art, or programing. I've seen a bunch of projects that are VERY nice, and had lots of work put into them and yet they have... two or three views. That's not exactly fair.

I hope you accept my request and thank you very much for taking the time for reading this. 

Repost:
Umm... curator, I would curate projects that are either funny, inspirational, or really good/hard to make/spent a lot of time on, but I wouldn't curate projects that are already famous, but ones that almost no one knows about.  I've seen some projects that have really inspired me, those projects I really want people to see. I want people to become inspired too. I want to curate projects that I think really, really, really( says really 50 times later) deserve to be seen. oo)

id like to be a scratch curator. the projects id like to show are anime/manga pictures. i love the style of drawing and they are good insperations for all sorts of art.
i hope to get picked!
