On YWS' last Reviewing Sunday, there were 547 reviews made in 24 hours (561 if you count Art/Photo). That was a site record, so the question is: can we beat it?

By the way, if you want to see the damage from last time, go here:
topic67512.html

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

Also, the winner of the day as judged by the number of characters typed (not just the number of reviews) will receive a complimentary copy of the Young Writers Literary Journal.

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: 1:01 am (Sunday) to 12:59 am (Monday)

United States & Canada
Atlantic: 9:01 pm (Saturday) to 8:59 pm (Sunday)
Eastern: 8:01 pm (Saturday) to 7:59 pm (Sunday)
Central: 7:01 pm (Saturday) to 6:59 pm (Sunday)
Western: 6:01 pm (Saturday) to 5:59 pm (Sunday)
Pacific: 5:01 pm (Saturday) to 4:49 pm (Sunday)

New Zealand: 12:01 pm (Sunday) to 11:59 am (Monday)

Australia
Eastern: 10:01 am (Sunday) to 9:59 am (Monday)
Central: 9:31 am (Sunday) to 9:29 am (Monday)
Western: 8:01 am (Sunday) to 7:59 am (Monday)

India: 5:31 (am) Sunday to 5:29 am (Monday)

I swear there is a conspiracy to prevent my participation in Reviewing Sunday. Silly annual square dances.

[Griffinkeeper] 10:45 pm: The guard appears "We have weasels now!"
[Firearris] 10:45 pm: askes the guard for the weasel!
[Griffinkeeper] 10:45 pm: The guard gives Firearris the Weasel.
[Firearris] 10:46 pm: aquires the weasel and renames it "Cat"

Take that, Lumi.

The goal is probably only going to be set at 500 this time around, if not lower. Thing is, there just weren't as many literary works posted this month! Plus, the review ratio is already around 3.3, which is much above average.

What will help, by the way, is if people post new literary works over the next 24 hours.

Ooh. So I should probably type up anything I want to be reviewed. XD

Im going to try and force myself not to write stupidly long reviews...

Hopefully, I'll be able to do lots of short and sweet ones. I epically fail at anything short and sweet, so that'll be interesting...
I didn't know what to put here so I put this.

My goal will be a nice five reviews
(two of which MUST include the word Fahrvergnügen.)

Aw, this would be an amazing way to start back here but I have stuff going on tomorrow :/ But next time I know I'll be doing this. Good luck everyone who's going to be reviewing! I dare you to do more than the goal.
