hd_writersIt’s Friday night in Australia, which means it’s about that time again…so here’s BOB Bonus #2.
2x multiplier for everything Saturday, April 7
Again? We did say two a week and after seeing how well everyone did on Wednesday, we’re looking forward to seeing Saturday’s progress.
How to claim your BOB Bonus points: Report your totals for Saturday only in the comments of this post. The mod cut-off comment will be up at noon EST Sunday and everything reported here after that will be counted by the regular BOB points scale. As always, BOB things run from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. in your time zone.
Do I count BOB Bonus things in my weekly check-in? Yes, please. Bonuses get awarded twice, once when you check-in on the Bonus post, then again when you check-in on Sunday. We assume you’re telling us everything you’ve accomplished over the week on Sundays, so if you aren’t (if you’re not counting your Bonus things, for instance), please let us know when you check in.
New to checking-in? Here, avoid a horrible spreadsheet incident:
Team Acromantula
.5 hours podfic recording
2 hours podfic editing
1 hour modding
1 hour researching/planning
…will be 15 BOB + 15 Bonus, for 30 points to Acromantula. As long as it’s clear what you’re claiming, how much of it you’re claiming, and which team you’re on, though, it’s all good.
Can’t make this one? We’ll have the schedule up for next week with the weekly target post Sunday, but Bonuses run twice a week all month, once on weekdays and once on weekend days.
Just joining us? The general BOB guide is here but the real fun (and the updated points chart) can be found in the Common Rooms, so pick a team and get busy.
Questions? Comments? Bonus points to claim? Take it to comments. ♥

Date: 2012-04-06 12:47 pm (UTC)For Team Acromantula:
3k of New Words -24 pts.
1 hour research/brainstorming - 1 pt
3.7k of New Words on Bonus Day - 14pt x 2 =28 pt
1 hour of "Other" on Bonus Day - 1pt x 2 = 2 pt
Or do we just lump it all together somehow?

Date: 2012-04-07 06:09 am (UTC)I'm so sorry. I swear, every time I try to explain this, it sounds even more complicated. :/ Hopefully I'll have the current BOB spreadsheet moved over to GoogleDocs next week so people can see what we're doing.

Date: 2012-04-07 07:12 pm (UTC)So we report once and get normal points on the bonus day, then we included it in our weekly total and it gets counted then, too. Yes? That's how they count double?
I think I'm just reporting what I do and letting you figure out points? If you're okay with that because I'm totally okay with that. *laughs*

Date: 2012-04-07 09:49 pm (UTC)I got two things done:
