Event Time: September 29, 2013 GMT. See international times below. Please note, it's Summer Time, so the time for the UK differs by one hour from GMT.
In addition, there'll be a Free Literary Work day for the 24 hours prior to the Review Day. We did this back in May and June, and it actually seemed to work pretty well, so it's something I'd like to try out as a constant thing.
As always, if you post something on Sept. 28, then please review something on Sept. 29!
Wait, What's a Review Day?
A Review Day is a period of 24 hours where everyone on YWS tries to write as many reviews as they can. During this time, no new works can be submitted.
Each Review Day, we have an overall goal that we try to reach. This month we're going for 550 reviews! Although, this number may change depending on how many works we get on the Free Literary Work Day.
Even if you only have time to write one review, please do join us! If everyone did just one review, we'd easily meet the goal.
Review Teams
To make things a little more interesting, members can join one of two Review Teams. You'll be able to join one beginning about 72 hours before Review Day -- just look out for the "Join a Review Team" link at the top of the sidebar on the home page.
When does it happen?
Due to things like orbital rotation, Sept. 29 doesn't happen at the same time for everyone. So we instead base it off of GMT time.
Review Day thus begins this Sunday at 12:00 am GMT Sept. 29 and goes until the following midnight. To make things confusing, daylight savings time is in effect for most of us! So for those in the UK, the celebration starts at 1 am.
To help with getting times right, a countdown clock will go up on the front page starting 72 hours prior to the fun.
