A change in approach:
Hey there, I’d like to talk about a change of approach in regards to Marcie and Gina reviews
Up until now the girls had a 50 chapter minimum they would read. This worked pretty well for a time, but recently it regrettably became less and less sustainable.
You see, when I set the 50 chapter limit, chapters were relatively brief. It was very rare for them to break 1000 words.
This has since changed drastically, Chapters with 3000 and more words have become the norm(Hell, I myself am having that has my standard lol)
To further aggravate matters, these reviews have gotten a lot longer! Initially my goal per review was a measly 4 pages. Nowadays anything below 12 is considered short. (And I probably shouldn’t make full length AMV’s about them either...yeah)
It has gotten to the point were all of my free time is consumed by Marcie and Gina Reads and Mean Maids. And while one certainly could have worse hobbies...
To cut a long story short, I just can’t keep up anymore, man.
Last time this happened, I extended the review process from six to twelve days. That definitely helped, but I also don’t want everyone to have to wait forever to get their turn on Marcie and Gina’s wild ride.
So, this time I decided to do away with the 50 chapters instead and make it a cool 100k words per review.
That is about the size of a standard full length novel every twelve days so definitely not on the short side of things lol
And yes, that will also mean that the girls may read more than 50 chapters, if these chapters happen to be shorter, which I think is overall a much fairer approach, too.
The girls will also still try to find a proper ending point for their reviews, so they might read more than that.
Also, also, ten chapter minimum still applies(I hope there is no perverse fuck out there who breaks 100k words in less than 10 chapters)
Oh, and also, also, also I’m adding a special rule that in the case that the backlog is three stories or less(including currently reading) any author can ignore the three month waiting period and reapply immediately!
Alright, that’s it! Have a good evening!
