In this particular case you dont need to ask to be sponsored. If you have
stated in your review that you need a sponsor and have blocked
FE-NEEDSPONSOR then potential sponsors can find you easily. In this case Rex
has already effectively said he will sponsor you unless somebody else gets
there first although if others want to do an initial review first they
should feel free to.

No need to specify any aditional arguments eg:

rpmlint ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS/kde-plasmaihatethecashew-0.2b-3.fc10.src.rpm

If you leave out the arguments then all checks are performed by default.
rpmlint should be run on the spec file, the source rpm and the built rpms.

1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Same as above. Leave out the additional arguments. Should be:

rpmlint ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kde-plasma-ihatethecashew.spec

The only time specifying specific tests to be run is is there is a vast
number of warnings/errors or a huge package that would take forever to do
all checks on.

Just wondering if I got this right... I added "FE-NEEDSPONSOR" to the blocks

Correct.
