THE GREAT TORTOISE RACE OF 2023 https://i.ibb.co/kMpk5yJ/2023-WELCOME.png On your mark... get set... GO! Greetings fellow reviewers! This June, in addition to some other wonderful activities, the moderator team is bringing back the classic Great Team Tortoise Race where everyone will be encouraged to review every day this June for an opportunity to earn a special badge if you complete the event! How to participate: To participate write one review every day of June, starting June 1 . The site will keep track of who is still active in the challenge on the Team Tortoise Leaderboards here . There is a little bit of leeway worked in to how the site calculates things for time zones, but you must write one review every day to stay in the running. You can also update us on your progress or encourage those who are racing in this thread or on your wall with the hashtag #TeamTortoise ! This thread will feature encouragement, tips, and other Team Tortoise Legacy information for our competitors too. So are you brave enough to join? Do you have questions or support to offer? Let us know below! Good luck to you all and remember, slow and steady wins the race! ** Also this summer is going to feature a special Summer-Long Review event - so be watching the people tab for more ways to participate in Reviewing Challenges this summer! **

You've Reached the Finish Line! Slow and steady wins the race, and these YWSers have taken their time and worked hard all month to review every single day of June!

This is a record breaking month for YWS! June 2023 will go down in YWS history! This month, we had a record breaking number of Team Tortoise winners! NINE turtles made it to the finish line! That's amazing! Y'all really need to pat yourself on the back - great work!

hush, my sweet

these tornadoes are for you

Congratulations you all! This was definitely a hard-fought race, collectively we contributed over 270 reviews this month which is pretty awesome!

Well done!

Imagination is a superpower. Use it well!

I always knew that deep down in every human heart, there is mercy and generosity. No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
— Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom
