So this is something we did on a site I used to play on.
November is known as National Novel Writing Month. Those who participate try to write a 10,000 word or more novel by the end of the month. On the site, people who wanted to participate would keep track of the word count in their posts across all threads and characters and try to reach 10,000 words that way. Staff would keep track of everyone participating and those who reached the goal would get a little ribbon thing in their profile and were awarded a certain number of points. Everyone who participated and reached this goal was awarded, not just the first person.
It was a great way to encourage people to be more active and try to improve their posts and was a ton of fun. I was hoping we could do something similar here.
*To be clear, this is not one 10k post, it is over every post you make during that month*
