NaRevWriMo '18 has come and gone! Held each year during September and started by @Rydia in 2015, RevMo is our take on NaNoWriMo for reviewing.

The goal this year was 1250. We didn't quite reach that, but we did clear out the Green Room for the first time in several months. What I believe primarily held us back was just the low number of literary submissions, which, at 265, was the lowest since September 2006. It's kind of hard to review when there's nothing to review...!

So, how did we do? Check it out:

Total: 1175

This is astonishing to me, as it seemed like the Green Room was so full. I feel kind of guilty posting any literary work when the Green Room is that full, but I guess when it hasn't been cleared out for so long, there was still a lot of backlog from August. Hopefully now that it's been recently cleared out, we can keep a better balance between reviewing and posting so we can clear the Green Room every month. :)

Well done everybody! So impressive that so many did so well!

I would also like to say, @Nate - great use of "nadir". Upsettingly underused word.
