The title itself explains it all.

So, I created this thread because I want to know your New Year's YWS Resolution, guys. I'm just intrigued like that. haha. It's almost 2011! *pops confetti*

So, I'll start, okay?

My Top Five YWS Resolution:

1. Review at least thrice a week. :shock:

2. Post any literary piece at least once a month. :3

3 Greet and talk to new members.

4. Storybook!

5. Be happy! :D


What about yours? :pirate3:

Break 600 posts, aim for 1000, mostly by reviewing.
Accumulate 100 followers by the end of the year
Spam the forums with reviews - two a day for five days = 10 in the weekdays + (3+X) = At least more than 15 a full week.
Take over as chat king... or at least chat personality.
Be in the Report a Good Member at least three time in the first half of the year
Leaderboards > Lead (Hold the record for longest time in the leaderboards)

--- ^ That's my set myself up for disaster list ^ ---

Tiger's YWS Resolutions:

-Review far more.

-Participate mor actively in Storybooks.

-Enter and hold more contests.

-Greet and help some more new members.

-Give out gifts and points randomly when I have too many.

-Get a Fifth badge.

-Stalk people's walls more often. :P

-Have at least two stories featured.

Hmm. Knowing my laziness, I'll probably only be able to fulfill two or three of those.

So we're all going to review more? How much are you reviewing now (not to take away from the point of the topic)

Hmm, I usually never make resolutions. Mainly 'cause I won't be able to keep them with my forgetful memory and all. But I shall try. Here are some:

~Definitely try and review more than I do.
~Become more outgoing and interact with more people that what I do.
~Try and get on here more often then just four months of the year >.<
~Get more stars than what I have [which coincides with my first resolution]

psychopaths and mystery writers.

I'm the kind that pays better.

I've only got one. That's to be around a bit more, considering I drifted away during the summer.

1. Review.

2. Get badges. Or nominations at the very least.

3. Actually get more active.

4. Get more active after promising to get more active.

And although this is more personal, but it still has to do with YWS, as I'm liable to post it on here:

5. Get to at least 25k on a story .... Any one given story! (I tend to jump from plot to plot ... I get a lot of ideas ...!)
