Hopefully you’ve all started tackling your to-do lists already (but if you haven’t, no worries, there’s still loads of time, you can totally do this thing) and I know a few of you have already smoked that weekly target, which is awesome.
As promised, though, it’s time for our first BOB Bonus.
2x points multiplier for Wednesday, April 4
What does that mean? Double points for everything/anything you do Wednesday. That’s it.
Really? Why? Because we can. No. To motivate you. (But seriously, because we can.)
How to claim your Bonus points: Report your totals for Wednesday only in the comments of this post. The mod cut-off will be going up at noon EST Thursday, so as long as you’re in by then, you’re good. Anything posted here after the mod cut-off comment will be awarded as regular points. As always, BOB things run from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on the relevant date(s) in your time zone.
Stats mod would really appreciate it if you include your team’s name in your post so we can get your points awarded properly without some sort of terrible spreadsheet incident.
Here, have example of points reporting that won't make stats mod twitch:
Commenting with:
500 new words
30 minutes of revision
1 hour brainstorming
2 hours other (I cleaned like I said I would on my to-do list/betaed podfic/did a thing that is not otherwise listed that gets me closer to one of my goals)
Go Snidget!
…will result in 16 bonus points for you and Snidget. As long as it’s clear what you’re claiming, how much of it you’re claiming, and what team you’re on, however you want to do it is fine.
Can’t make this one? Our next Bonus day will be Saturday, April 7. We’ll have the schedule for next week up with the weekly target Sunday.
Just joining us? The general BOB guide is here but the real fun (and the updated points chart) is in the Common Rooms, so pick a team and jump right in.
Questions? Comments? Bonus points to claim? Take it to comments. ♥

Finished 16,898 words fic for the Hermione/Lucius exchange
ok, I was a little confused about the words and finished fic. All the words I wrote today was for the fic, so if words doesn't count when a fic is finished then just remove the word count, if you know what I mean :P
no subject
Date: 2012-04-04 10:36 pm (UTC)The finishing bonus is 1 point per 1k, doesn't matter when you wrote them. So your Hermione/Lucius fic is 16 finishing points. (Unless you finished it today, in which case, it's 16+16.)
Either way, amazing! *\o/*
