YOu all do 5000 words a day, until Chris joins in, then it 7500 until the start of the new moon, the its 2680.

If you continue getting points for more words written, then the goal becomes doing more and more each day (possibly letting quality suffer), rather than running a disciplined daily work schedule -- which was the whole point for starting this in the first place. Of course there's nothing wrong with doing more per day than the 5k (or its equivalent in funnybook script pages). If we all meet the minimum daily goals, then it does indeed go to a raw word count contest. So do go for 7500 a day.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, that's what I think.Bill Willinghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977587767617018371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9144399331286018170.post-75620611312101210282009-02-01T12:46:00.000-08:002009-02-01T12:46:00.000-08:00I think on the scoring the we need a number higher...I think on the scoring the we need a number higher that 5000 words.
