This is a discussion on "MS Blood Pact: Word Challenges and Wars" in the Writing Groups forum.
Ok, fellow Blood Pacters, this thread is for putting out challenges to others in regards to your current WIP. Anyone that wants to lay down a challenge for a word race (2,000 words by the weekend?) go for it.
I'll put one out there. Let's try for 3,000 words (as Ariel suggested) by this Saturday? Who's up for it?
And with Camp NaNo coming up, I'll probably be doing more and more of that starting June 1st!

Time to stretch a little before camp Nano. 3000 words, be prepared to be defeated!

If I was writing instead of editing right now, I'd be up for it. I'll do a variation. 6000 words edited.

I'm up for the 3000 words. Not sure if can do it - but I will give it a try.
I'm going to try for 3,000 tonight. Actually, probably almost every day the rest of June. Yay...I mean...Yay!

Got 1633 yesterday. I might aim for 1500 a day. We'll see.

I got 1,411 today, so going to finish it off in the morning I hope to reach 3,000.

I got 1,430. So it looks good.
I was writing on my Nano document (it's easier for me to keep track of word count that way, and then I copy paste) and got my word requirement for Nano then I pasted it into the document and checked to see how many words I'd done for the challenge. The result: 2,961. 39 more words; think I'll do them tomorrow
Edited in: 39 words complete! Challenge defeated!
