Reviewing Sunday on January 30th! (GMT)

Rydia · 2011-01-24T11:07:57Z

RSVP on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=187072204649854 This coming Sunday, 30th January, YWS will be hosting a Reviewing Sunday! The record to beat is 572 reviews, made June 27th 2010, but I have a feeling that this Sunday is going to be our best yet! So instead of the usual goal of 500, let's make it say... 573? So what is a Reviewing Sunday? On the last Sunday of every month, YWS holds a reviewing day. This means: No new literary works can be submitted (you can wait 24 hours!) The Featured Works block on the front page is changed to a Last 5 Reviews block You can earn up to 100 points per review instead of the normal 50 A check-in thread in the Lounge for letting everyone know how many reviews you've done Now, because the Earth is round and it tends to spin, not everyone has Sunday at the same time. So we're going to go by Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and declare 12:01 am GMT to 11:59 pm GMT as the YWS Reviewing Sunday. Some international times for that are below: United Kingdom : 12:01 am (Sunday) to 11:59 pm (Sunday) United States & Canada Atlantic : 8:01 pm (Saturday) to 7:59 pm (Sunday) Eastern : 7:01 pm (Saturday) to 6:59 pm (Sunday) Central : 6:01 pm (Saturday) to 5:59 pm (Sunday) Western : 5:01 pm (Saturday) to 4:59 pm (Sunday) Pacific : 4:01 pm (Saturday) to 3:49 pm (Sunday) New Zealand : 1:01 pm (Sunday) to 12:59 pm (Monday) Australia Eastern : 11:01 am (Sunday) to 10:59 am (Monday) Central : 10:31 am (Sunday) to 10:29 am (Monday) Western : 9:01 am (Sunday) to 8:59 am (Monday) India : 5:31 (am) Sunday to 5:29 am (Monday)

Would definately take part!

I'm sure we will break the record!

All your scars won't heal till you let go
You're perfectly worth it, forget your mistakes.
If you wanna fly, leave this world with me
We'll touch the sky, let's defy this gravity.

Do we have to RSVP for this? I want to do it. I doubt I can do 500 reviews. That's going to be hard.

I won't be around for it most likely. Even If I am, with how long I spend on a single review, I would add 2, maybe 3 to the grand total.

Every little counts! If every active member on the site posted just one or two reviews each, we'd easily make the target!

True enough, I just wanted to not sound so bad with a comment like, "I won't make it".
