Post by Arianna 12/21/2009, 3:18 pm

I got this awesome/semi-awesome/possibly-junk idea which I wanted to share.
For the month of *, we could have a Twig-wide event. Everyone would be able to set their words-per-day goal, and they would track it on a thread. There would be prizes for people who completed their goals most of the days (with 2 or 3 'excuses' allowed. No one's perfect. Wink), which could be badges or just bragging rights.
Everyone could set their own goals, so it'd be fair for everyone.
What do you think? x3

* Which month? Please do tell. Very Happy

I like it! Very Happy Perhaps not January, because there's another event we might be doing, but when that's finished I think this would be a lot of fun.

I like the idea but what about sometime during the summer? That way it's like opposit NaNo and we'd have a lot more time so we could do higher goals?

That sounds like a good idea. January is ruled out, then. xD
I don't know if I'd participate in the summer as I'm moving (hopefully) and I might be trying to write another novel. But who knows. xD I shall update post #1.

I guess I could, when you think about it. Smile The only problem is that after a 10,000 word day, for an example, I take a break and write 0 words. Which would count as a 'day off'. xD Oh well. I'll pace myself, then. nod

Ooh, this sounds cool! But now I want to know what the event that might happen in January is! lol

Would we do it in the summer then? I think it'd be better to do it in like March-May time, cuz that would push us to write when we normally don't, cuz we have a lot of time in the summer to write... But whatever you decide's fine with me Shadz!

Maybe not March, since that'd be the NaNoEdMo. May or June, maybe? xD

Lol, well, so far you guys seem to like this idea . . . I'll bring it up with the mods soon, I think. nod

Possibly, but we'll have to take into account everyone's schedules. ^^ Whatever works best for the most people.
