 * Hook: Interesting, short, reference does not support fact (it does not say explicitly that Castleville reached the number in 6 days).
 * Article: New enough, long enough. Referencing is thorough and well formatted. Paraphrasing checks look fine (1, 2).
 * Summary: Symbol question.svg Can you find a direct citation for the 6 days claim? Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:11, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd interpreted the source to mean that the 5 million figure was claimed after six days as the other figures were all for six days. I've copyedited to say the date rather than six days directly for the five million players for CastleVille. Also added a direct cite to the lead for the fact in the hook.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg I understand that, but having it explicitly stated would be the safest course of action. The new hook is just as good, though. Good to go! Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:35, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree having re-read the article since it doesn't specifically state it. Thanks for reviewing! :) Miyagawa   (talk)  09:39, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
