Yes, sadly this happens to me all the time. Check the Couch Potato, and you'll see some single episodes that have had to be split. In fact, my last review, the movie "Dust Devil", ran over the max and I had to split it too.

Stupid rule...
I find that the more experienced you become writing journal entries, the word count tends to shoot up. I do mine by lines and it's a normally a maximum of 25-30 lines per section (overview and verdict) when I first started I was doing a lot less than that.

The rule is not stupid, otherwise these journal entries would have more waffle than they should.
