In 2015 I started doing a roundup post for Wicked Wednesday, partly because I am always reflective at this time of the year, but also because — as I have admitted before — I am a statistics whore. An additional reason is that I think it’s great to acknowledge everyone who has been supportive of the meme throughout the year. Thank you to everyone who has played.
In 2015 the roundup had a different structure from what I did in 2016 and in 2017. I am continuing what I have done the past two years, showing you the numbers of the past five years.
First and best
The first prompt for 2018 was number 292 and the last one was number 343. Effectively prompt 344 has still been given in 2018, but since it is for the first Wednesday of 2019, I am declaring it a 2019 prompt.
The best week of 2018 was for prompt 337 when we had 34 posts linked. Just like last year and years before, I am still chasing to have 50 links. Will you make me happy and let this happen in 2019?

New blogs in 2018
In 2018 we had 45 new players for Wicked Wednesday. Unfortunately some of those have linked only one post and disappeared again after that. Some blogs have already been deleted.
Linked
As you might know, there is a page with links of all active blogs that participate in Wicked Wednesday.
Please check whether your blog is on there and if not, let me know!
YOUR number
I have only mentioned those who have ended up in the top 5 or 10 or 15, but of course I have statistics for everyone who has ever played along with Wicked Wednesday. Want to know YOUR numbers, please just let me know and I can give it to you (no pun intended).
Last but not least
The only thing that remains is for me to invite you to join in with the prompt of this week, but also as many future prompts as possible, and of course to wish you all the best for 2019. May all your sexy dreams come true!
~ Marie Rebelle
I love it when you talk statistics! Happy to find myself in the “Top 10 blogs in the top 3 in 2018” x
Wow! I hope to do a little more next year. I always feel I need to write something original for WW (and wrote a lot of serials this year) so I didn’t always put something in. Here’s to doing a little more. Happy new year
Serials for Wicked Wednesday is perfect lovely, I have done that too :) xox
Wonderful stats – It is great to see how dedicated to the memes some people are and to watch others climbing the ranks from newbie to more established.
Very sad thinking of M no longer being listed, she is still very missed.
Thanks again for your tireless work – this is validation, if it was needed, of the positive impact your meme has for us bloggers.
Thanks Posy, I feel this is the little bit I can give back to bloggers for supporting my meme :)
A wonderful post Marie. I definitely tried to post to WW as much as possible even when I didn’t feel like writing. Well done to you and to Molly for always posting, no matter what. xx
happy new year ! I’ll try and play more this year!
I look forward to that ?
That would be lovely!
I love that you do this…. I have not kept such records for Sinful Sunday which is a shame as it is rather lovely to see it all laid out like this. Thank you for sharing it though, it always spurs me on to keep going

Thank you for supporting Wicked Wednesday from the moment I started, Molly. I can’t tell you how much that means to me ❤
WOW! I don’t even know how much work it is to find all this info and put it together but it is amazing! YAY YOU and YAY Wicked Wednesday! I am glad I found you here!
I am glad you’re part of this too ?
Thanks for sharing this, it’s really interesting to learn about it and I was quite surprised to see I was there, let alone where. I love participating in WW and look forward to all the new prompts and amazing stories this new year! X
And thank you for participating and I look forward to read a lot more of you this year.
