BOB BONUS SATURDAY

[kinky-kneazle.livejournal.com]

First off, an announcement. The intrepid curiouslyfic, aka Captain Picard, is off on an away mission, so I shall be assuming command. I'd like to think that I'm the dashing and devilishly handsome Will Riker, but the fact is that I'm really Wesley before Wil Wheaton got cool. Which is my way of saying, "Be gentle with me."

In my first act as Ensign Crusher, I'm announcing something tremendously awesome that is happening tomorrow for most of you (and today for Aussies on the east coast - sorry!) Yes, that's right,

Saturday, April 21 is the Finishing Bonus!

Finishing? That's right! Need to get that last paragraph sorted out? Have an idea for a fic you could finish today if you got a move on? Anything you finish on Saturday will be worth 3 points per 1000 words.

I'm working on art and/or podfic! Any art or podfic finished on Saturday is worth 3 points per hour spent on the project.

But I'm on Team Spider and there's no way I'm getting through the last 15k of that Big Bang in one day! No fear, Saturday will also be

Double Bonus Day!!!

That's right! Everything else you do is worth double points.

That's a lot of points! WE KNOW!!! Isn't it AWESOME?!?!?!!!

Er.. have you been drinking something? Look, just because I'm Ensign Crusher in this scenario, doesn't mean I can't down a Sex on the Beach Slushie and still manage to make sense. Okay, maybe it does. And there was more than just the slushie... so if there are any questions, ping me, email me, or leave a comment!

Wasn't there something about a Drabble Day this weekend? Yes, there was!!! There will be some sort of special Drabble Day bonus point extravaganza as well - more to come about that in tomorrow's Drabble Day post!

So I tell you... Everything you accomplished Saturday. And make a special note of anything you finished including the number or words or amount of time you spent on it.

The No-Worries guide to claiming Bonus points: Report your total for Saturday only in the comments of this post. It must be timestamped Sunday April 22 to be counted.

Do I include my work from Bonus Days in my weekly check-in? Yes, please. It makes stats mod’s life easier to just plug in one set of weekly totals and let Spreadsheet O’Doom figure it out. Obviously, we still have a record of what you’ve done to earn your Bonus points, though, so if you’ve split them up and don’t want to do that math, please just tell us your reported totals don’t include Bonus points.

Just joining us? The general BOB guideline/overview thing is here, but all the action is in the Common Room posts, so find a team and get productive.

Whoa, look at you go, writ! (I'm rounding up from 850 on the finishing bonuses but shh, I'm only telling people that if they qualify. ♥)

You are going to get that fic done, too. I know it. *nods*
