December Review Day (16th - 18th) • Young Writers Society

RevMo 2022 Review Day December 16th -- 18th https://media2.giphy.com/media/VEhpX9lshFoFHNS563/giphy.gif?cid=790b76115f8d806177c7863ee5fc700f0ca91db31cdf96e0&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g Uhhh, What's A Review Day? Normally, people could sign up to be a part of a review day and they would be automatically sorted into teams. Teams would compete to earn the most points from reviewing, and whichever team had earned the most at the end of 24 hours would be crowned the review day winner! But. . . Our review day event is going to be formatted slightly differently . The goal is the same - to write lots of reviews (and earn bragging rights, too, of course). Instead of counting points, we'll be counting the total numbers of reviews written by each team. Remember that reviews should be constructive and work-specific, so if we see a review that qualifies as review spam it will not be counted. You can see a previous version of a similar review day type to this here . How Do I Sign Up? Great question! To sign up, simply respond to this thread in advance voicing your interest . You must sign up by December 15th in order to be part of a team. If you don't sign up in time, but still want to participate, you're of course still welcome to write lots of reviews on your own, and you can also log them in this thread if you like! You'll be entered as an individual participant. Before the start of the first review day, those who sign up will be randomly divided into two teams. Each team will have its own thread to spread hype, strategize, encourage each other, and pick a fun team name if they so choose. Thread One Team A Thread Two Team B During The Review Day(s) During the event, you can log the reviews you write in this thread. Just make one reply, and then edit in links to reviews as you write them so that things don't get crowded! Also be sure to record which team you're a part of at the top of your post . There will be a grace period of 6 hours to update all your links before the reviews get counted and the winning team announced. Alert! This review day is 'sponsored' by the Knights of the Green Room . Where a work has received fewer than 2 reviews so far, it goes into the Green Room, which you can find in a tab alongside 'Shorts', 'Roleplays', etc. The Knights of the Green Room are dedicated to reviewing works there. For this review day, you can log your reviews of Green Room works separately for a special Knights of the Green Room badge. Logging 5 non-spam Green Room reviews will get you that badge! Here is an example of how you might log your reviews: Hey, I'll be taking part from Team A! Green Room reviews 1. 2. 3. ... Other reviews 1. 2. 3. Total reviews: ___ The official start and end of the event will be 12/16/2022 00:00 EDT - 12/18/2022 00:00 EDT . Reviews must be completed during this time in order to count toward team scores! If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the thread below!

Hey there - the official closing time for review day is coming up in about an hour. This is just a reminder that, like the last forum-based review day, there will be a 6-hour grace period for you to finish typing up any reviews and posting the links here before we tally up the numbers.

Huzzah!
