Nice! This certainly shows up the people who try hard in the literary forums. It's a lot better than just having a number of posts (well, it makes me feel better :D ) but I guess the next step would be to link it to critique quality. Unfortunately, that's qualitative and not quantitative so that would be really hard / impossible. But, I've got the bug now, I need more stars!

Ooh, I love this!

Of course, I'm going to love anything that involves stars or sticky notes or stickers in general. Wow, I'm so mature. :roll:

And I bet Nate will have to add purple stars for Snoink now that it's summer... ooh, scary... :P

What a wonderful idea, Nate.

(me remembering what each color means is debatable, however... :D )

So does starting a topic in the literary forum and adding to it also count as "reviews?"

Basically: If you start a thread in the literary forums you get no star. If you reply to that thread (whether to add more to it, or to comment on critiques) it adds to your review counts. But that doesn't change the numbers too greatly.

I like this. It's lovely, but I think Snoink will be wanting purple soon. It's a great idea, though. Its easier to see ranks now instead of the titles and the straight out number of reviews.

I love this new feature since I review more than I actually post my work. :wink:

Nah, just kidding. But I'm with you on the stars and stickers. SO PRETTY.

What's funny is that Nate is going away so there's going to be nobody to add purple stars XD

...well, maybe for my birthday, he can add them? ;)

EDIT:

If you do have purple stars, maybe you can make it so that it takes 150 reviews to get one star? Or something more difficult?

Over the summer we can all pretend snoink has purple stars, and then when nate gets back... =D

What would come after purple? FUCHSIA! hehe.
