02/18/2024 - 02/23/2024: Palestine Strike Week

There is an unofficial internet strike this week in Support of Palestine from February 18 to 25 and so the saveOFMD Crew will be reducing their Tumblr activity. But something big is on the horizon on the 26th!

They'll also be promoting charitable efforts, inspired by the Our Flag Makes a Difference Crew!

== Reminders on How To Help ==

For examples on how to help, feel free to visit the OFMD Renewal Repo which has daily updated tasks for US/Outside US fans to help with, but also some low-spoon tasks to focus on if you're looking to limit activity during the strike.

Review OFMD!

SchnellaBella on Twitter has created detailed instructions to rate and review the show on German websites, even if you don't speak German!

And @lowrahh has put together detailed instructions for Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb:

ROTTEN TOMATOES:

  1. Go to https://www.rottentomatoes.com
  2. Click “Login/Signup” and continue with email or link up your Google account.
  3. Check your email inbox for the verification email. The “Verify my email address” button will take you to a newsletter signup screen on the website. To close the window, choose whether or not you want to sign up to the newsletter.
  4. Search ‘Our Flag Means Death' or click here: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/our_flag_means_death 
  5. Scroll down or click “Seasons” to jump down, then click “Details”.
  6. Scroll down again or click “Review” to get to the audience ratings. Click “Post a review”.
  7. Rate each season and describe what you loved about it! Hit “submit changes” to save. Don’t mention the petition, as it could get your review flagged as spam.
  8. Rate and/or review a few other shows or movies – we don’t know for sure whether Rotten Tomatoes takes this into account, but it definitely can’t hurt, and leaving a rating only takes a few seconds.

IMDB:

  1. Go to https://imdb.com or download the IMDb app on Google Play / App Store. 
  2. Create a new account or sign in using any of the other accounts shown.
  3. Check your email inbox for the verification email. Return to IMDb and fill in the code to verify your email address.
  4. Search ‘Our Flag Means Death' or click here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11000902/  
  5. Give your overall rating for the show, then select ‘User reviews’ to write an honest but positive review, ideally at least 600 characters long. Do not mention the petition, as it could get your review flagged as spam. If you can’t leave a review, scroll through other people’s reviews and mark the positive ones as helpful/the negative ones as not helpful. 
  6. You can also rate each individual episode: go to the episode guide and rate each one. Find your favorite episode(s), select ‘User reviews’ and write your own! Don’t copy & paste your review, as this can get it flagged as spam.
  7. Important! Rate and/or review a few other shows or movies – otherwise IMDb’s algorithm will give your reviews less weight. 

For Google, go to the "Reviews" tab, click "More Audience Reviews" and then "Write a Review" in the top right hand corner.
