I'm going to delay this by a day, team, because the reviews are on the short side. Hopefully we'll get some more by this time tomorrow and then we can just push the schedule back one day. I'm starting to think most people who got out are just not reviewing anymore. Even if you've lost, guys, there's still a lot you can do. Those still in the competition need those reviews and votes. This isn't like other competitions, where once you've lost you just stop paying attention to what happens in it. Why, is it like only 3 votes per person, Agro? Something like that? |

Everyone involvedandeven those who aren't have been responding to other threads on the forums with regularity. I think they just aren't reviewing rather than being busy, Zovo. Not to say there might not be -some- that are busy, but I kind of doubt that's the case for everyone who didn't vote/review.

Thank you!!! I've had like no time to myself to get around to reading and voting/reviewing. I wanted to ask for an extension but it didn't seem right for just little me. Turns out extension happened anyways and now I finally get to vote! Woop! You know I love to be involved. Real life is still kicking my butt. I'm not getting much of a chance to spend time on here or get time to myself. Sorry guys >.> You could count me as a lazy but I do have a valid excuse. |

I have no time to read 20+ pages when there's fucking spots on the audiosurf leaderboards that I could be filling.

While a few people ARE honestly busy (Reffy), I use the same excuse a lot when I'm too lazy to do something, and spend 5 hours on Youtube or something. There has been a decline in reviews each round, which I think is people losing interest once they get voted out. (Persuade) And c'mon Schro. Think of all the goodwill you'll earn! |

See, the more you guys call me lazy...the less I want to help you. It's weird how that works, but, yeah. |

You're playing audiosurf, which I gather is a lot of fun and you are therefor doing something as opposed to not doing anything. But you can still take a little break to review some stories, yes? |

Not to say there might not be -some- that are busy, but I kind of doubt that's the case for everyone who didn't vote/review. It takes like three minutes, tops, for the average post. A far cry from the amount of time it takes to read these submissions, think about them and formulate a valuable review. The former I can do between other things off and on throughout the day; the other I have to sit down and devote some time to. Just because someone has been signed into the forums all day, doesn't mean they are sitting there reading and replying all day. I'll try to find time to do some reviews today (probably on lunch), because my weekend was incredibly busy, despite my occasional post; but I can't promise anything. |

No more power-cuts!
Done one match (both entries) and have found time to: youtube songs, munch bikits and milk, chat, investigate vegetarianism, play with ratties, and scratch my butt :]
It really doesn't take that long! Taking a break before the next match :] need to clean the kitchen >.> and set the veggie-chili a-cookin'!
{EDIT: Oh! Match was also very, very difficult to vote for!}

It was only a small scratch. I usually devote the last hour before bed for the full activity.
Cleaned kitchen. I really am a klutz >.< Broke a mug and smacked my head on cupboard door .... picking up pieces of the broken mug! D'oh!

Did you break the mug as you smacked your head into the cupboard door? Or were they two different events?
If the former, congrats. It takes a lot of clumsiness to pull that off.

Actually, I placed mug awkwardly in the cupboard (kinda leaning against two other mugs), the bugger rolled, fell out of the cupboard, nearly smashed my favorite pan-lid (left a very, very small crack instead), then finally smashed and fell into the dishwasher. I smacked my head as I bent down to the other-side of the dishwasher to pick up a rather sharp piece. Whacked head on the way down.
Most impressed with myself. Now my head is actually quite painful, and I still have a crick in my neck, making it an over all enjoyable experience.
