I will post as soon as I get the edit forthe previous piece done. This is a bother!

I'm writing it tomorrow. You know what's up for me. I still need to think of what to write.

Sorry, this is longer than I expected it to be.

I'm gonna tag all the sages here so I don't point out any names: @PiesAreSquared @kayfortnight @Noelle @Holysocks @OliveDreams @Messenger @Deanie @AriaAdams @SushiSashimi333 @WritingWolf @Noelle @megsug

Wait what? Why am I tagging Sages?
Because some of you are severely neglecting your contestants! D=

Glancing through the contestants and reviews there definitely seems to be a correlation between the morale of the contestant and the dedication of the sage, so it's really important that you let me know if you need help or are unable to continue your sagely duties.

Partly so that I can get one of our wonderful allstars to drop by and review in your place, and partly because it's my task to keep you guys motivated as well as your wary warriors, so if we're struggling then something needs to be done.

Tips I can offer:

~ Don't forget that you have until the Sunday after the chapter is due to review, that gives you more than a week. (Some of you are three weeks behind.)
~ Set an allocated space of time- ten- twenty minutes per chapter, sit but-in-chair and do it.
~ Read the work all the way through before reviewing. Novels are meant to be read rather than dissected, which means you'll enjoy it more and you'll have a better perspective on it.
~ When your time limit is almost done, quickly sum up your review, take a deep breath and press Submit.

If you haven't checked this out: clubs/1852/forum/72306 then it might be worth doing so.

What if you don't?

If you don't then I'm going to make a list of negligent sages and make wonderfully wicked mockeries of them in the Weekly Roundup ^__^

I think I've been mostly reviewing within the week the work comes out. :D

I'm so sorry. I actually had forgotten for a couple weeks, and then this week I remembered and have been insanely busy and haven't had a chance to write a review. (yeah, I know it should only take 15-20 minutes, but I find it ridiculously hard to review a chapter in less then 40 minutes)

Would it be possible for me to get a co-sage? Like, we take turns reviewing? One of us does every even number chapter, and the other does every odd number chapter. We'd both be required to read all chapters (so that we know what's going on with the story), but we'd only have to review every other one. Would that be possible?

@Tenyo, I know you'd got a person in mind. But I'd really like to become a sage too. :D
