Okay guys, I think I've gone unofficially insane! For 2009, I'm going to TRY to post 2,009 reviews in honor of the new year! Think I'm crazy - just wait!

I don't have enough time in the week to go on the computer, so that means through Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I have to post 42 reviews. Oh, for all things holy!

Now I'm challenging you to do it with me. If you can get on the computer daily, all you need to do is 6 reviews a day. Pretty easy. It's almost like those 100 posts in 10 days thing. Just that this one's all year and if you are only in the yellow starts you'll surpass the five red star count in October or November. Pretty freakin' AWESOME!

(Nate, you might want to make another rank or so of stars! Green and Purple are cool...*HINT*)

Rules:
1) You must start on January 1, 2009
2) The posts must be the 50 points kind, not "This is great! Keep writing!" junk.
3) This isn't much of a rule, but try to go to different writing forums. You never know when you might find something different you like.

Pros:
1) TONS of points
2) Ridiculous star gain
3) Lot of new stuff to read
4) Never bored because those reviews you're putting off are starting to pile up

Cons:
1) If you don't do this, you're not insane! And if you're not insane, what fun is that?

Are you up to it?
Writing once a day keeps the voices away, and I've created a blog all about it: Daily Dose.
...and I'm now trying to create a user group based on the idea! Tell me if you're interested!

:twisted:

Awesome. 100 reviews between now and Jan 1st, and 2,009 reviews between Jan 1st and Dec 31st. I shall do my best. *salutes*

Great idea. :D

Oh, darn! I forgot! Between script frenzy, NaNoWriMo, writing songs for my musical, finishing Betrayed and Plagued, and editing all of the above, I won't have much time at all.

Maybe When I finish all that, I'll boost my reviews myself.

Uh, because I'm a genetic slacker, I'm gonna downsize I think. I'm maybe thinking 1000ish reviews in '09. or 500. or 250...oh you know where I'm going. Ha, nah, but I am going to try for 1000. I work for a living. I don't have the time. But its still a great idea. Props to everyone shooting for the stars. :D
Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.

XD

It sounds fun! But it's likely that it won't be possible, knowing that I'm taking organic chemistry and fluid mechanics at the same time. But... well... it sounds fun. XD

We'll see. :) But I'm afraid that ridiculous star earnings won't be possible for me, unless you add three sets of stars instead of just two. O_o

You know, it sounds crazy enough that I want to try it. Count me in, though I may sorely regret this later.

*sigh* Yeah, I probably am really going to regret this later, but I am feeling strangely psyched as I accept this challenge.

I want to try! I'm sort of slacking as an instructor. And I'd like to get some blue or red stars =]

I'll do the 6-reviews-a-day thing for at least a month, I guess. At least one 30-day chunk of time. At some point in 2009.
