Scratch

I like to get the things which have taken so much effort to make but in the end never got enough views to be popular

I would like to become a curator because I know what sort of things people like or what they would like to see, I am good at deciding what would be good for the front page. I wouldn't just put my friends projects up I would go for anybody's girl, boy, 'famous', moderator, whoever as long as it seems worthy of the front page, I prefer games myself, like tactical games or challenging ones but I would put up other things like funny animations, http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/AlinJack5671/1964169 , cool stories, http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Astro947/1814980 and other things like that. I would also like this opportunity because the only time I have been involved with the front page is in the 'newest projects' section so this will be a kick-start in my scratch life. this would also get me more involved with scratch itself other than posting projects and comments. I am working on a project called 'mouse trap' where you make a maze for a mouse and it will have traps on it so you can get rid of the mouse before it gets back to its hole with the cheese it stole.

Well, I know that New Scratchers aren't picked for curators, but what's the case on this? He's been on the main site for almost an year, isn't that even better than being on the forums for an year (In this case)?

Yes, it's the length of time on the main site that matters. So if a long time Scratcher just signed onto the forums recently, and is still a New Scratcher, they'll still be eligible.

That's good-People that are on the main site more would probably be even better curators, because instead of posting spam they'd be looking (at) and making projects.

Right... MIT is going to give out viruses...

But 1) you need to take your problem somewhere else. it doesn't belong here.

2) You did not get a virus from scratch.

Correct. How can you get a virus from Scratch, of all places?

I guess I like anything that people would like or would help them with there own projects

Hi, I'm NeilWest and I'd love to become a curator for Scratch!

I've been on Scratch for a year and a half now. I've seen many, many good projects like wwjd3's 1s 1s 3D Object Rotation! My last past attempts haven't gone well, due to angry comments I've decided not to show visual examples. I'll choose mostly games, full ones. At times, I will choose pen projects that have taken a long, long time. Really, I just would like to show that Scratch has another side thats not animation and basic, overrated projects. Instead, I'd like to show projects that took a long time! Take Rahi-Tak's Chobo Advance. A improved version of eRKSTock's Chobo that recieved 1839 views and alot of praise, which was deserved. Rahi-Tak added scrolling, shortened it down to 2 sprites and 9 scripts and improved graphics. When the Scratch Team opened the remixing system, they knew it would be good for something. Theres also cozyhut3's Gizmos! This fun game is based around Gizmos like trampolines and such. Last but not least is Rurigok's Cheeseland. This is one of the great platformers of 2008 that were good, then forgotten. Sure, it had a few glitches but this is a great follow-up to Nitrome's Cheese Dreams! I have to say, I'd love to be a curator, and I'd love to show some games to the Scratch public.

NeilWest is not responsible to any angry replies or flame wars which are because of this post. After my recent posts on this topic, I'm taking this precaution.

could i be one?

I like time management games and I would like to become a curator.

Are you okay after typing that? Maybe get off the computer and take a nap, you've had too much coffee.

Lol, I've just gradually added to it, I'm fine ;D I had a sleep and cleaned my Batmobile to cleanse my mind.
I run on sugar anyway XD

wao that would be a great idea i also would love to be a curator......amazing

New Scratchers aren't trusted with becoming a curator, try again when you are a "Scratcher"

I Like Animations/Amvs, They Are SO Interesting!!

To the New Scratchers above: You can't get picked unless you've been for a couple of months on the main site. Are you new to Scratch or just new to the forums?

I would like to apply to be a curator. I have viewed a lot of projects and leave constrictive critism, and I have helped as much as I can. I would like to be a curator because I would love to help promote projects. I like projects based on graphic, animation and music, for example, here are some good ones:
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/08jackt/1664101 - Graphics are great here!
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/cheddargirl/700276 - I know I'm not supposed to choose Scratch Team's projects, but this is just an example, and cheddargirl has some really good animation ones!
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/r2d2upgrade/1579350 - Great animation, graphics and inspiration!

All Scratchers We Have A Hacker And His Name Is Doughnutlover!!!
