Hey Everyone! The surprise me tab is no longer part of the *NEW* process.

"Ok, all you awesomesauce junkies - get ready to detox for a few days.
We're changing the process for Surprise Me / Sponsored reviews. Change is good!
No more forum batches.
So here's the deal - now this process will work much like regular assignment requests. You will look for available sponsored items in your account, through Product Search - just like you can right now. And when you 'Grab it', and try to 'Request assignment', the system will let you know if it is available for review. So, it's a familiar process. And it's more automated - which means faster, easier, and more fluid.
We hope to have many new sponsored products up for grabs in the future - it just takes time to coordinate. As far as the assignments, we are the sponsors of all assignments unless manufacturers send us products - so one way or another, someone is paying to have the product reviewed. Hope that makes the process clear for everyone. Thanks!"
