Nicd but i think the scratch team picks scratchers and not new scratchers sadly but also, to be picked a good description that's long might boost your chances to a ¾ chance ˇ▼˙

I believe it will be a message asking if you want to be curator.

some people change their minds and won't want to anymore.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Dear Scratch Team,

Sometimes, I look on the home page and top loved/ top viewed and I look at the project, wether it's a game, an animation or a music project, and I think, my projects are better than that. The only reason that particular project is front paged is because that scratcher is famous. I'm not saying that for EVERY top viewed/ top loved, but I've seen some and I'm sure a lot of other scratchers think this aswell.

I would like to see brilliant projects with not a lot of views recognized by all scratchers. That's why I would like to become curator, so I can give these projects a chance to get the fame they deserve. I will pick all kinds of projects trying to choose at least 1 in 2 days.

My current favourites are mostly animations and games, but I have seen some great projects like this:

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/purplepup/2046930

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Xion777/2041716

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/diabolicpride/2030335

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/plemofan/2011826

The games that are my favourites have great graphics, amazing gameplay and interesting sounds to make it more realistic.

I hope you pick me,

     northmeister  smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Dear Scratch Team,

I am yoshi-fan and it is my dream to be curator. I am mostly interested in games of all sorts, mostly due to the fact that this is such a diverse category, which allows the user to be creative. I believe getting to be curator would be an extraordinary experience for me and the curator because...


1) I am astonished by the sheer creativity used on Scratch, and my friends would get to know me more by the projects I curate.

2) Several people who's projects lack an significant amount of views think that it has to do with what they make, even if it was a masterpiece.

3) I would curate all sorts of fun, unique projects that deserve positive feedback, but can be improved.

4) After someone gets feedback, there are still an unlimited amount of improvements possible. People would learn more from the projects they created if a better amount people give them feedback, which is why I am likely not to curate art, memes, or contests.

5) I would get to experience power, and a lot of people I curate will get to experience  fame.

And one more thing. I like how the system curating can make people on Scratch get an idea of feedback and will be encouraged to move on to more complex programming languages. I am very excited and determined to become a curator some day.

Here is an example.

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Wherl/1969540


Sincerely,
                yoshi-fan  smile

Oh, and to add on, I don't think I really introduced myself. I am mainly focused on creating different kinds of games, and try to do things on Scratch I've never done before so I can learn. Also, I like to be influenced and inspired by other people's games (not just from Scratch.)

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hi, scratch team! My name is CheckItNow12, and I Would love to be a curator.

Why would I Want to be a Curator?
It seems like a great experience for me, which I'm intrested in.In fact, this has to be my third time applying! Plus, there are so many projects are out there that are amazing, yet don't get enough attention. If I Got curated, I Would choose the best projects that are talented and unnoticed.

What Intrests me:There are epic games that catch my attention, like 08jackt's games.There are also epic animations out there by Astro947, or SpriteMaster. Those are front worthy projects, and so are tutorials and Project Ideas. These kinds would be really helpful to new Scratchers, which a lot of projects seem to have. Also worth being curated.

What projects would I Curate?
I Would go for the unnoticed projects, 100 views or less:That's my limit.These kinds include animations, tutorials, games, arts, and projects with amazing programming.Great projects (Even some by New scratchers), that need the attention, is what I Will curate.

Thanks, Scratch Team, for looking at my application.It sure would make my day if I Got chosen to be a curator! If I do get chosen, I Would very much, look foward to it.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be the curator too!  cool

I like games where you jump and mover around with the arrow keys. I also like musical games. Story projects are cool, but sometimes they are boring and I don't like them. Scratch Cat's Adventure chapters one and two I wrote.
