Man it's so early and already so hard. I felt like they all deserved AT LEAST a 2 :( I keep changing my mind but I guess it's time to settle on something.

Since I'm not getting a review from Pompadour either, I've just got two, and boy is it hard. Both reviews were incredibly helpful.

But finally...

Sorry this is late, I had a pretty busy day yesterday but here we go, results for last round and pairings for round 3!

Group 1

@Carlito: 9
@Megrim: 6
@IronSpark: 6
@Wolfie36: 5
@Rydia: 4

Group 2

@Arkhaion: 9
@Meandbooks: 7
@SpiritedWolfe: 7

This means that Tuesday and myself will be dropping out of the contest now, though we will still be included in the pool of people receiving reviews. I'll aim to balance this across the weeks and where you receive only two reviews, please choose to award 1, 2 or 3 points.

The two people exchanging groups at the end of this round are Arkaion and Wolfie36. But will they switch back next round? Who knows! Let's find out :D

As @Megrim has brought to my attention that IronSpark doesn't have any further works which Megrim is able to review, I'm making a small change to the above.

@Carlito will now review @Megrim, @Arkhaion, @IronSpark

and @Megrim will review @Arkhaion, @Rydia, @Pretzelsing

It's that time of the week again when I check up on your progress!

Of course, there's no need to check on some people 'cos you're just too fast for me. Great job getting all three reviews in!

You're almost there as well, just one more review! You could probably write it blindfolded :p
@Megrim

Two more to go - keep it up and don't worry, the tortoise beats the hare sometimes ;)
@Carlito @Wolfie36

One down, five to go - I have faith in you! Just remember, mountains are climbed a step at a time.
@Pompadour

Either you've not done any yet or you're a super secret ninja reviewer. I'm watching you!

I'm so sorry, but I don't think I'll be able to continue with this competition, at least the reviewing part. Life is getting kind of hectic, and I need to be able to focus on class and personal stuff right now. Still, I'll try to get in the three reviews I owe over the weekend! <3

That's okay @Arkhaion! As long as you catch up on those reviews you owe and score your reviewers every weekend, you can stay on the list of people receiving reviews.

@SpiritedWolfe you technically have until 10:00pm today to finish the reviews and have them still count, though your scores will be capped at 2. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, work has been crazy this week.

Don't forget to get those scores in everyone!

Man, always such a toughie. At least I don't have to feel bad about giving someone only 1 point this time :S But really it could have gone either way.
