Do you use this pair (#52026 and #214732) in your project?
I don't think this sentence matches [#214732] because there is no "s" after "sometime". What do you think?

I do use it and I think it's OK. "Get together sometime" is a common expression meaning some unspecified time in the future. "Get together sometimes" is a bit strange, and could possibly mean on repeated occasions. I never use it.
Here are their comparative WWW counts:
- get together sometimes 484
- get together sometime 11207
