Guys and girls, Rouges and Defaulties, FANTASTIC JOB! Throw away the fact that we won as blue team. Everyone did excellent! The Green Room was cleared, and we shattered the goal by 75 reviews! High-five to everybody, and thanks for such a fun experiment for the first month on here. Hats off to all of you!

Who did the 750th?

@umaima
Are not you the most adorable?


and @DrStrangelove You did.

Remember last time @Blackwood ?

I just remember seeing your name when it said there was 0 reveiws remaining on the bar

I'm ridiculously happy because I went to bed last night with only 27 reviews, a little upset that I wouldn't make my goal for today (35 and a new star), but I woke up because I couldn't keep myself asleep and blasted out what happened to be exactly eight more reviews.

Now I'm the proud new owner of a brand new red star~

I just feel proud of myself for managing to kick out so many reviews even with mean old @Blackwood getting me to ramble on about my novel an writing and love letters while I was supposed to be reviewing.

I'm also extremely proud of @ChangeTheWorld and myself, who decided to compromise on sharing tenth place and both doing 22 reviews.
And then when we realized the threat of our position being taken- we both fought out two more reviews even after declaring that we could not possibly do any more. (And, might I add, we kept our tenth place.)

I think this ended the best possible way with one team getting the most reviews and the other team getting the most points.

Wait, I was the first? o.o

...omg. I only did two reviews that were 100 points each, but now I see that it was SO CLOSE that my two reviews totally mattered. Had I not done those reviews, the Blues may have lost!

Yet another lesson to show that EVERY. REVIEW. COUNTS.
