I presume (but am not sure) that it will again end at 250 entries. Not sure though... Darn, I'm stuck at my max number of submitted tasks now. It sucks not being a black belt in this type of competition, where the max number of tasks is belt-restricted.
I have to correct myself, the limit is 500 tasks this time... This is going to be a long competition.
I hit the claim limit of 10 with the blackbelt too... it's easy to do.
What I'd do Mithrandir is start a text document.
Copy-and-paste the URL to the task that you think will be available after your current tasks are approved.
Also, copy-and-paste the sources that you're going to use.
This way, you're not making a significant investment in time writing out the sections, but you'll have the URL's for quick claims and the sources in front of you.
Based on the number of tasks currently available and the numbers above, you likely won't have any scooped. However, I might only do this for the movies that aren't quite as interesting to make sure.

Thanks for the advice. I will consider it. In the meantime, I hope the QC team will review some of my entries the next 30 mins, otherwise it is night-time for me anyways.. (I live in The Netherlands, so almost midnight). Another drawback for me in this challenge, I work the US nightshift, when the reviewers aren't awake...

On the flip side of the coin... most of the people who are completing the tasks are also asleep :)

This is very nice, I quite like the subject matter of this BR edition, but.... there are some technical problems....
To start with the latest, I'm trying to submit a task, but it doesn't work - nothing happens upon hitting the Submit button. Refreshing the page results in loss of all data filled in. I did submit another task earlier today without problems.
Another thing is, I can only claim 5 tasks, which leaves me with little to do considering the time difference between Amsterdam and California, and the inevitable delays it causes with regard to task submission/ approval procedures.
p.s.
don't hurry with response to this note, it's 2:30 A.M. over here, and I'm going to bed now...

Interzone, I had the same issue, and had it resolved with the help of mahalo staff. You probably have used a special character, like an 'í' or a. I had that in some of the cast entries, and that blocked the submission. Remove those characters, and it will submit fine.
@mithrandir - yes, indeed, I had a few of those characters, and that's exactly what the problem was! Thanks a lot for a good advice!
