Username & Diary Title: (10/10) Is your username & diary title unique or are they the same thing? Do they have meaning? Variety & uniqueness is very good.
First Impression: (20/20) Do I like the layout or despise it? Does it look so cluttered that I dread trying to navigate? What I think when I first click your name.
Layout: (50/50) Does your layout suit you or is it one I've seen 100 times? Of course, everyone doesn't know HTML & can't make their very own personalized template, but they can spiff if up a bit with pre-made ones. It's true that a diary is for writing, but if you're going to let other peeple read it, it should be aesthetically pleasing also.
Content: (55/55) Did I enjoy reading your diary? If I did, why? If I didn't, why not? Grammar, punctuation, & spelling may/may not be considered here.
Contact: (5/5) In case of an emergency can I find you quick & easy?
Extras: (10/10) Profiles, notes or guestbooks do not count as extras. Notes & guestbook are contacts & a profile is nothing. Cast, biography, reviews, etc... count as extras.
Am I Linked: (5/5) Did you link me or not? If you didn't - you better! An easy 5 points!
Favorite Entries: (5/X) We list our favorite entries in numerical order. Usually no more than 5 are listed, & sometimes none may be listed. Scored by 5's (5, 10, 15...) unless one entry is exceptionally outstanding.
5 Words to Describe You: Do I think you're boring, annoying, & immature or do I find you more collective, poetic, & artsy? We judge you based on what we've read, so be careful.
Memorable Quotes: We select a quote (or more) from your diary that stood out to us & feature it in your review. It can be anything & it can be more than one.
Your new name: Say your name is Anne & we read your diary & imagine you as a carefree, spirited, young lady. Anne doesn't fit you in our minds, so we name you Harmony. See how it works?
Your lyrics: We assign lyrics to your diary, your life, your personality, etc... whatever we think of while reading your diary.
Personal Advice: Sometimes while reading a diary, we just want to reach out to that person & try to give them a bit of advice to help them. We may not do this for everyone.
Comments: Whatever we didn't mention in your review, we mention here. Or we repeat ourselves. We may not always comment.
Would I Come Back: (20/20) Self-explanatory. We tell you if we would come back for another visit. That simple.
