I want to report @HarryHardy for breaking previous records and concluding their massive Team Tortoise streak at 22 months total! Pretty impressive!

October Record Updates

Hi YWSers! Several records were in need of an update, so here we go! Congratulations to our new record breakers and everyone with new achievements!

Most Forum Posts There's been some upsets on the top 10 forum posters of all time with @MailicedeNamedy (7th) and @Grandwild (5th) moving on up!

Username Changes ~~Magebird~~ @Mageheart's second place record on username changes was updated to reflect that they're now up to NINE username changes! @Omni might be due for a change soon here to avoid Mage catching up...

Most Wall Pages I also updated Mage's wall page count from 520 to 559! That's a lot of chatter.

Team Tortoise Streak Harry recently concluded their last Team Tortoise Streak closing in at nearly 2 years -> with 22 total months, which is reflected now in the records!

KotGR Logged Reviews Knight @HarryHardy has broken Knight BluesClues' previous record of most Green Room logged reviews -> now boasting 1346 logged green room reviews and counting!

Egg Post - The egg post's likes continue to rise 3 years after it was originally posted it's now at 115 likes with room for more

Roleplay Duos - @Shady and @Grandwild's RP "Two Crows watch from the Gallows Tree" is now at part 15 and still moving forward.

& corrections were made to the LSS stats in the record book as @Shady pointed out the winning record had 100,000 + words for their 20 week work!

As always if you see any corrections or have any suggestions of records to add please let me know!

Spoiler! :

(If someone from RP Crew or someone with more time on their hands and knowledge of RPs than I have could pass on an updated list of completed RPs/SBs I'd be happy to add that in too! @Omni @Shady @winterwolf0100 @HarryHardy @SilverNight *note for multiple part stories, only including the 1st part)

Major Record Breaking Event!

It is rare for there to be a change in the top 10 on the all time leaderboards, but today a user has managed to make it all the way to the top!

As of today, 12/28/22 @HarryHardy has managed to overtake @Snoink with the most reviews written ever; writing 294 reviews this month alone to manage the last stretch and at the time of this post 3774 reviews total. With this new review jump Harry also has managed to store up over 400,000 points which I don't think anyone in the history of YWS has managed to do before.

Congratulations Harry and thank you for all of your contribution to YWS through reviewing!

End of 2022 Update

A few new records were added to the Big Record Book after our latest YWS Friendsgiving Event! The new record for most gifts over one gift weekend event is 6,714 gifts.

@HarryHardy has beat @Rosendorn's previous record of most gifts given by a user in one weekend by giving an incredible 4,000 gifts. And other top givers were also added to the stats! @Nate still holds the record for most gifts given over total YWS career at over 24K.

Although this December's attempt to break the record for Most Holiday Avvies met a noble 29 users participating, it looks like last year's record of 57 Holiday Avvies continues to stand strong! Maybe next year!

Congratulations to all of our record breakers over 2022! You are all incredible! And this was a record-setting year in many respects!

We had incredible participation in the Randomosity Forums, a change-over in several of the top-10 spots in Reviews & Posts, new records set in poetry and roleplays, and many miscellaneous records tested or broken!

Watch those records in 2023! Happy New Year!

And as always, if you see any records you'd like to see added or have corrections for, please do comment!

I've been informed that I might qualify for Most Chapters in a YWS Novel. Yesterday, I posted the 107th chapter for the Many Gifts of Malia. (I'm at least five chapters ahead of that in my own writing so that number is going to continue to grow XD). But that's where the number is for now.

Spring Update

@dragonfphoenix it looks like you've earned the record then! Congratulations!

BluesClues previously held the record with 90 chapters! Keep on writing and post here when your novel is done so we can update the final count.

Another record that's been added to the record book - @soundofmind recently completed the 20th edition of the "Last Person to Post Here Wins" thread - I was also present and made the final "closing the post" thread, so giving myself an honorable mention

Well done sound!

And lastly, since the "Longest Reigning Featured Member" (Rosendorn!) was already listed, I decided to add the record for the "Shortest Reigning Featured Member" our last one; @TheEgg holds this distinction of holding the post for just a day.

It'll be interesting to see what records are broken in April ~ Moonglade holds the record for most NaPo poems at 160!

If anyone sees any new records to add, please let me know!

I'd like to claim a new record!

My Roleplay, Aether's Heart, is now the longest running Roleplay at 3 years, 10 months, and 20 days as of the latest roleplay post.

I want to congratulate the cast of writers for Aether's Heart, past: @AvantCoffee (miss you!) @AlyTheBookworm (miss you too!) and present: @soundofmind @ScarlettFire @winterwolf0100 @Chaser -- you all are awesome!

Summer Record Update

Several records were in need of updating, so updated they have been!

Thank you @Omni for sharing your latest achievement with Aether's Heart - that's a seriously long commitment and has been added! (Please let me know the LMS results when they are out too for an update!)

Additionally @KateHardy's Review Count was updated to reflect her breaking the 4000 review mark!

@Shady has been added for the second time to the list of EOC of Squills.

A few NaPo records need updates -

@Meshugenah ... continues to hold the record for most NaPos completed - now at 15 years! (I don't think anyone's ever going to beat you on that one!)

I added a record for myself

on most NaPo comments written in a year with 77 comments in 2023, and challenge anyone to try to break that record next year!

@niteowl has been added to our esteemed list of April Madness winners.

And finally thanks to @IcyFlame @alpacaboss @KaiaJersaga @MerleBlackbird @alliyah @DreamyAlice @Spearmint @vampricone6783 @OrabellaAvenue who all just completed the Great Tortoise Race - we have a new record set for most YWSers to complete Team Tortoise in one month - NINE! Well done!

Congratulations to our new record holders! Let me know if you see any new records or corrections!

REVMO RECORD UPDATE

Congratulations to @IcyFlame for bursting into the Top Ten Reviewers of All Time! We rarely have updates in the top 10 - so it is always exciting to make an update! Icy currently has 1369 total reviews!

We're about to see another record update with Team Tortoise in the next two days, but we'll update that when we get there!

What other record breaking achievements could we do this month?

Keep up the good work everyone!
