Crocefisso,
Hello. Creepter is still active. For this reason, I will continue to complete his review.
My first page explicitly states that I may take whatever time I deem necessary o complete a review. I encourage you to read he preceding pages, as they help to explain why this review is taking this amount of time.
If this does not help, I'd be willing to explain it again. Please simply ask for the explanation. :)

Yrolg,
It's okay, I understand the system. Anyway, knowing you, the second explanation would be even more complex and bewildering than the first. :D
Either way, I was just slightly bemused that a review was taking so long (4 months, 1/3 of a year), and I wanted verification on the authenticity of the statement.

Crocefisso,
As you have no doubt noticed, I am an incredibly busy person. This means that I have more things than this establishment to which I may devote my life. Furthermore, my reviews are incredibly in-depth. I cover the aspects of literature and writing that many reviewers either cannot comprehend or cannot teach.
I do not profess that I am a master of the art, but I have the necessary resources to ensure that the applicants who are lucky enough to be accepted are rewarded with the single best review they will receive in their life. I am not merely critical; I do not simply judge the quality of the work. I work with the author to ensure that his or her piece drastically improves following my review.
With a work such as Creepter's, which is of a prodigious length, this attention to detail and meticulous cataloguing of points requisites a greater amount of time. If I remember correctly, my predicted finishing date was in another few months.
I can tell you now that the author and perhaps yourself will be pleased with the results. The works I have reviewed so far have been quite short and usually unfinished pieces that cannot delve into the complexities of true literature because of their space, time, and plot limitations. This is partly responsible for why these authors have not received an award of merit from this institution. Creepter's entry has none of these limitations, as far as I can tell, and, therefore, should be more prepared than any applicant so far to earn one of my prestigious awards.

Yrolg, don't worry, I fully understand your situation and the requirements of your system. :)
I'll be checking back in a few months to see whether there's a gap for me to submit.

Creepter,
Hello. As if on cue, my internet's acting up again. I have significant portions of your story saved for reference, but unfortunately my internet isn't reliable enough to save the whole thing.
Whilst I am optimistic in thinking that I will have your review completed by the previously posted estimate, please be aware that this date is quite subject to change in the near future.
Thank you.

Posted within the next few hours. For some reason, RuneScape was not working properly with my computer. Since the end of June I haven't been able to post on these forums (though FunOrb was unaffected). I've now remedied the situation.
