Unqualified Ratings 2

[Hund]

Woo-hoo. After popular demand (I think like one person) I've decided to bring this back. Send me an SCP, and I will rate it out of ten, despite having no skill at writing or judging writing.

One at a time, since SCPs can be quite long and I prefer to spend my time doing other things as well. As well as giving the rating I will also try and briefly explain what I liked or didn't like about it.

SCP-4519

i read this whole article feeling like i was missing something and trying to figure out whether it was knowledge about sapphire or knowledge about carl sagan, only to get to the end and find out it's part of a series apparently, but i'm gonna judge it like i clicked on a random page because people do that and that's essentially what i did lol

i think it felt very unfocused at times. jumping from one thing to the next, with little feeling like it was resolved at all. i think the idea of a weapon that turns people atheistic is interesting enough, and while i think the carl sagan inclusion was a bit silly here i feel like a better article could do better with it, but i think the way it is it's a 4/10 for me

i feel like i'm missing something here. i know the story of the gordian knot well enough, it's not that. but the last addendum feels completely disconnected to everything else. it's a simple concept and i think it's done in a cool way, but yeah i think just like a 5/10

i don't think i've reviewed this noe here, but i've read it before because my brother mentioned it and loved it. and i read it and so too did i love it. it's a really interesting way to present an scp, i think the sentence 'this isn't a place people were meant to be' is more horrifying than 90% of horror on this site lol. it's definitely backrooms inspired, but does it in a really really effective way. 9/10

i think my favourite bit is "SCPS Nimitz:" this is the SCPS Nimatz" dude you just wrote it. no actually my favourite bit is 'no bright, not even you'. no actually my favourite bit is-

i don't have to justify a 1/10 with an article like this do i. i don't need to talk about it lmao

fun fact: all of these super bad about-to-be-deleted articles, i screenshot them so that i can go back and read them every so often

SCP-432

pretty alright. it's one of those 'the concept is generic but it was probably more unique when it was released' things. other big issue with it is that the ending doesn't feel satisfying, more of an 'is that it?' moment. not much to say 4/10

The new 001 proposal, family life.

they've got something here. the writing is great, the characters are interesting. not sure how i feel about the messing with the format, i'm going to give the benefit of the doubt and imagine there's some symbolism there i'm not picking up on, because it feels very particular to me.

i think the big issue is the vagueness. being vague can serve a story well, especially one like this. but there's a fine line between vague enough that it leaves a lot to chew on, and vague to the point it becomes frustrating. and i think this certainly hopped between those two sides quite a lot.

the actual writing - as in, the words on the page - are fantastic. it's more the structure of the story i think i take issue with. which makes it difficult to give a specific number to it. i think i'm gonna go withhh.... 6/10? maybe?

it's 22:49 right now and i'm waking up at 7:00 tomorrow - i'll try and remember to read this tomorrow afternoon, but i can't really physically do a long article at this current moment

it's another 'not much to say' article. it's neat. that's about it. it's a perfect 5/10, nothing really to criticise but nothing much to sing praises about either

001 Ralliston: i guess my problem, once more, is that i have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ attention span. i might have missed something important. who knows. i don't, that's for sure. was pretty interesting, but it throws so many concepts at you that it's difficult to keep track of everything. (at least to me. maybe many of these have been mentioned in other articles that i haven't read.) typically well written, but there was quite a few occasions were i felt the clinical tone slipped a bit? lines like "the myriad eyes suddenly start to smile". i think like 8/10.

turns out i already did that one!
