Create a thread in the gyg forum and update daily/weekly/fortnightly about how your academic life (your grades) are going.

It is used as a motivation tool for you and the people that watch your blog, it also allows people to help and support each other :smile:

well it has to be comparable in value, I think the strategy is to snap up a cheap offer and then have some left over

I don't want a ps5. I'd choose it if there was a significant amount I could make reselling it but otherwise I'd prefer to use the amazon voucher towards something like a 3d printer. (ender 5 or 6 probably...)

Monthly prizes

Each month we'll be picking a theme, and awarding prizes based on that. The theme for October is "Best Title" so if any of you haven't started your blogs yet, now's the time to start!
We'll also be having random prizes for blog posts we like and more :yep:


Additionally, remember there's a £10 amazon voucher for the person we feel has been most supportive in GYG blogs by the end of October :yay:

Tagging in everyone who posted in last year's GYG one last time, then we'll be switching to people posting in this year's blogs :smile:

Was everyone on TSR tagged to this post? Did you use a script?

Most definitely not, TSR has many thousands of active users, and many more than that who aren't! I tagged in people who posted in the GYG forum last year since that means they may be interested in the prizes for this year :smile: In future we will tag those who have posted in this forum as that's indicates they're likely to be interested in the current competition :yep:

For getting into medicine or you've started at uni already? Our winner last year was actually applying for medicine, and has started a new blog for their first year, so you could view theirs for inspiration if you liked? We do love people who just stick around and support other people though so that is also a very valid option :yep:
