The Review Day Review (aka, The Damage)

From 12:01 am GMT to 11:59 pm GMT June 27th, 2010, YWS held its second ever Review Day. We went into it a bit brash and headstrong, and I think we're all a little bit wiser for having survived this day. The goal: 500 reviews in 24 hours on 6 continents. Did we make it? You betcha. But lets let the numbers speak for themselves. 880,952 characters (all reviews total made on Review Day) 179,807 words 75,354 characters typed by BenFranks 74,116 instances of the letter 'e' 44,981 characters typed by Tatra 38,872 characters typed by Skins 38,116 instances of the letter 's' 34,645 characters typed by lilymoore 23,044 instances of the word 'the' 10,310 periods 7,789 commas 7,594 characters typed by the average YWSer 6,396 instances of the word 'is' 3,978 quoted sections 2,284 semi-colons 1,540 average characters per review 1,470 instances of the letter 'x' 1,331 instances of the letter 'z' 572 reviews total 537 reviews excluding Art / Photography 500 reviews on June 27th my time 328 reviews on the previous record holder of January 31 132 reviews made by people born in 1993 130 reviews made by people born in 1995 116 total reviewers 92 reviews made by people born in 1994 66 reviews made by people born in 1996 0 instances of the word "Fahrvergnügen" Addendum kingolions did the first review Tatra did the 100th review AquaMarine did the 200th BenFranks did the 300th Mr. Knightley did the 400th Skins did the 500th RepublicOfCoter did the last The damage? 572 reviews total.

Seriously. That's pretty awesome.

I know what word I'll be using come the next review Sunday :smt077

And congrats to the whole community! This is why I love YWS. 1995ers rock.
