Reviews

Das Reich - 2nd Panzer Division (9.09.00) | CO: Modus Virtuoso | Designers: Modus/Shik | Rating: 15/25
Once the game goes public there is no doubt in my mind that this page will have a score in the 20's. It is very nice looking now - but without the game it's gasping for content.

Blu Hellfire (8.08.00) | CO: Hunter| Designer: Zootsuit | Rating: 8/25
At first glance the website looks like it's bursting at the seams with information - but oddly, I seemed to flip through it all rather quickly. I think if they throw in some more information, maybe a feature or two (not just games) it would get a much better score.

The Flying Pigs (7.14.00) | CO: Smut | Designer: TigerShark| Rating: 10/25
Well, what can I say... I thought there would be more! Perhaps there was a lot of info in the under-reconstruction section... Ah well, There is a lot on the squad itself but not much else, content-wise. I hope they can make some contributions to improve things.

The 2nd Battalion - Kings Royal Rifle Corps (6.25.00) | CO: DBlatcher | Designer: DBlatcher| Rating: 18/25
Overall, this site surprised me! I thought I was in for a low-quality site. But after I got over the shortcomings listed in the Interface section, I quite enjoyed it. Good work!

The 2nd Fallschirmjager Division (6.23.00) | CO: Ramcke | Designer: Ramcke | Rating: 6/25
All in all this was a very nice looking webpage - but that's as far as it went. The interface is simple enough and Ramcke should easily be able to add some content to the website... I don't like giving out low scores, but after much moral dilemma, I now believe it's justified.

The Fourth Fighter Group (5.29.00) | CO: -BCNU- | Designer: -BCNU- | Rating: 20/25
This site is one of the most incredible I have seen. The sheer mass of information available combined with links and even merchandise lets you know this is one devoted squad that isn't going to die out anytime soon. If it had some sort of weekly feature, or something to come back to, it would attain a near perfect score.

The 3rd Panzer Division (5.16.00) | CO: -GNNR- | Designer: -GNNR- | Rating: 16/25
All in all, this is a great informative site for the Squad, and has quite a bit of content. It's all I'd expect from a squad site and more. I had a good time browsing through it. It's a shame the revisit value is low.

Disclaimer

Weasel's What's-Wrong-With-Your-Website Reviews are a critical, truthful, and fair review. If you want the dead truth about a webpage - ranging from "It sucks" to "It's from God's mouth himself" - then this is where you want to be.

These reviews were intended as a public service, to let people know what pages are out there, and which might be an interest to people. Woe is a webmaster who gets no hits, and I've been down that road. I know where it leads. I did not intend to write reviews to badmouth a squad or to prevent it from gaining recruits - this is a mere review of the site that supports the squad, not the squad itself.

The reviews also have a hidden secret agenda - if there is a method to compare sites to each other, it opens the doors to competition - and competition leads to bigger and better websites, as each try to outdo each other. Once people realize they are losing valuable content points, they will add content... or make an easier-to-use navigation bar... or put up some trivia or java games. Soon we will be wading knee-deep through top-quality sites.

Before you submit your website for review, please note that the review will remain on the webpage as long as your site exists and the review is relevant - we will not remove pages because you don't like the score you get. YES, I HAVE given out zeros before. If you are afraid of what your score may be, don't submit.

Note that I *WILL* re-review sites upon request, as long as significant, score-altering changes have been made.

I judge on the following scale for all sites, and as such, the scale is weighted to my personal opinion. Some people may think that content is not as important as interface, and they are entitled to their own opinions of the websites reviewed.

• 5 Points for the Interface (Graphics, Navigation, Organization)
• 5 Points for Originality (Features, Etc.)
• 5 Points for Revisit Value
• 10 Points for Content

And last but not least - the ideas and opinions expressed herein are those of weasel, and not necessarily the opinions or ideals of the HQ or it's affiliates.
