Have we complimented your tan today?
Nope but I had another go at it today. |

Yep, I've lost count how often that has happened. It no longer bothers me, as when I think of a ripper, I usually assume it will already be there, and am pleasantly surprised when it sometimes isn't.
The closest behind someone I was was with "An American in Paris" for 1 Night in Paris, I had mine pending only to find Cheese_Ed wrote his a few hours earlier. Needless to say it got my vote and everyone else's.
If it makes you feel any better, Face, keep in mind that most of your good reviews are probably depriving others in the future of the same reviews.
BTW, Face, I'm glad you get so much enjoyment out of fwfr. I must try and emulate your style.

In my first year, I had to deep six at least half a dozen beauties. Not so many in the years later. I thought that I had kept a record of them, but can't seem to find it. For most of them, it was some SOB named Noncentz who had scooped them. |

This happens a lot. I also get a lot of Cryptomnesia reviews: the ones where I think of a great review and then when I'm about to add it to the site, I realize it was already there and that I already voted for it and that it must have been in my subconscious and that I didn't make it up. |

Yeah, I get that too. Obviously it isn't age-related forgetfulness then. |

Yes, this has happened numerous times and on a couple of occasions I was left biting my keyboard in frustration. Still, you just have to smile and get on with it and graciously vote on the other person's review. |

Yes it is the worst FWFR feeling, but it is the greatest FWFR feeling when you go to the movie page and discover that nobody has the review that you are sure will already be there. |

Yeah.
And then it gets rejected. |

At the tan, or . . . ???
I on the other hand have an orgasm with each review, which is usually followed by a cigarette and some malarkey about how it's not me, it's them and how I deserve so much better, which usually preceedes some smashed china a wracking sob and a promise to myuself to never do that again. THAT's why I dropped top No. 10.
"Sale of two titties" for Breast Men. noncentz and I come up with this same rip-off of Monty Python within minutes of each other, but he got it first (benj noticed it while approving reviews and mentioned it in the fourum). It was wildly popular and even made it to the top all time review, so imagine my chagrin.
I wonder what's the top review of all time now? |

You are so cheeky MguyX, Tori can't say anything without it being twisted around. Is the sliding down the bannister position safe for two people or should I stick to making 'reviews' whilst travelling on dirt tracks with a ladyfriend?
Just yesterday I had the frustration of finding that my favourite of a batch of Snakes On A Plane reviews was a little too close to the top review to submit. I came up with 'Boeing Constrictor.' and BiggerBoat already had the plural version. I jokingly PM'd him asking whether mine was too similar and he politely shooed me away with a metaphorical stick (which could have had my metaphorical eye out if it had been closer):-
Besides, I've got to keep this one pure because it's the highest voted review for a 2006 film!
You know that feeling when salt and wounds coincide? Had to vote on BBs of course.
I also had to withold 'Monty Python's Flying.' for being too similar to another.
I just hate premature articulation, still at least I had spares on this film and one is doing okay. |

Thanks Lemmy, you can delete above post now if you like and I will trash this one just to keep thread tidy. |

Try this one on for size.
About a year ago I submitted 'Death and Texas' as a review for 'Texas Chainsaw massacre'. The jaw dropping response was rejection with a 'Too Generic' comment.
I left this jewel in my rejected box until I discover the same review had been accepted for 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre III'(with several votes). I'm trying it again but with little hope of success as one failure is usually the 'Kiss of Death'.
