Shouldn't you count the reviews for the day until the middle of the next day, Mikko? In the past lots of folks post a late review after 3AM ET (like yesterday's 7PM ET review of "The Dark Half" by John Gutts on day 1 after you counted the day) that could fall off the counter. And Lord knows we need every single review to count in these days of lowered engagement. 😓 You're the man in charge of stats, just a suggestion. 😉
I does not seem that is the case just here, J.M. So far, the postings on Bluesky for horror challenges are light compared to past years. Maybe activity will pick up as the month goes on.
