Chris, any news on this as yet?

I have one question, if I may? When you do announce the decision, will you announce it here in the forums, or via the threads off of the "home" link?

We can't reply to everyone who applied individually, it would take too long. We haven't even begun to look at US reviewers yet either. We'll be contacting individuals we think would bring something to the site as and when we have made a decision, but to be truthful not that many people followed our simple guidelines.

We had a lot of applications from outside of the UK and US (where we can't ship review material, hence the reason we specified the countries). We also had a lot of people asking how much the 'job' pays, when it's clearly stated that it's a voluntary position/hobby. Some people didn't pay any attention to the criteria specified in the article, so we got a lot of movie reviews with no mention of the DVD side of things (not much use to a DVD site). Some people emailed asking us to reply if we wanted them to submit a review(!?!). Wading through submissions of this nature has slowed the whole process down.
