OK, maybe it has been said before (for that matter I'm sure it has!) but I'm still going to soldier on.

I have a habit of writing relativly long and concise reviews sometimes. One day, I had written maybe 4 of these and then went off to play COD. However a couple of days later, I came back and discovered that I had a merit for one of the comments. Now, I don't know which one that is. Is there a way to find out? If not, I think one should be implemented, if only for YOUR merits, not others. (Just in case someone starts with the old crap, "Oh that's not fair! [etc. etc.])

I believe you get a link when you have it emailed to you. Otherwise, it's man hunt for you: Use Google and hope lucky. Or search through endless comments (The 'search page for word' function from Firefox works pretty well for this).

Is there a way to find out?


Yeah, it isn't fun to search through the floods of spam for something worth reading. But it seems like the only choice you have. So breath deep and jump in!

By the way, I manhunted all my reviews last year. I was then able to determine that I have a 25% review merit rate.

I agree with what you are trying to get done. Just wait until AG 3.0.

- Go to the game
- Try to remember when you posted your review
- Skip the comments that came after the date of yours.

Bold comments are hard to miss. Just keep scrolling through until you find your bold comment.

Or, just check your email if your merit notification thingy is on.

I'll just wait. Thanks anyways! =)

I take it your merit notification option was turned to "no"?

It was. I have a lot of emails coming through, and to be honest, I didn't think I'd ever get a merit! =P

I stopped even trying to get a merit.
It seems people will get them with an amazing randomness.

Well, generally you should enable the emails if you are interested in the merits. Otherwise you will have to look through all the games you have reviewed, as there is no easy way (just like we mods will have to fight through a bunch of spam to find proper comments in general).
I will assume it might be one of the cleaned games, which makes it a lot easier to find the merits, as there should be little to no spam left after a spam deleting raid by any mod.
But as it is, you will have to look for yourself.
It might be changed in the beta version, so wait and hope.

There is a system.
