Get Pushed Week 13 - Oct 15 to 21

October 13th, 2012
Please read this part first

As always, I've done my darnedest to make the corrections, additions and deletions from last week, but if I have once again mucked something up, or you have not participated so far but want to get involved, then please post to this thread ONLY... please do NOT post to other threads, photo's etc...

Also, if you are paired up with someone who seems to have gone MIA, please let me know sooner rather than later (altho' give them a day or two - remember, not everyone visits the site daily) and i will see about getting you another partner pdq...

AND, if you know you will be away or won't have the time to participate, please let me know BEFORE the pairings are posted (generally on Saturday)... that way I can take you off the list and avoid the confusion and disappointment that ensues when part of a pair goes MIA (see note above)! Remember, it's always easy to get added back on the list for a following week :)

****************************************
A Word About Repeat Partners

I use various approaches for randomizing the pairings, but there is no way i can guarantee that you won't at some point end up paired with the same person...

if anyone has any ideas on how to prevent this, i'd be happy to hear them... at the moment, the only thing i can think of is to compare each pairing to all the previous week's pairings... and while i love you guys lots, i don't love you quite that much ;D

anyhoo... so far managing the switcharoos hasn't been too awful so i am ok to keep doing that... but please be patient on this, 'k? :)

****************************************

Get Pushed 13 Dates

This weeks's challenge runs from Monday October 15th thru to Sunday October 21st... please tag your photos get-pushed-13...

***************************************

the Guidelines

1. Find your partner from the list below.

2. Browse through the last couple of months of photos to get a feel for what they shoot and don't shoot etc.

3. Post an introduction on their last photo, and also issue the challenge you are setting.

4. You have until midnight next Sunday October 21st, to take and post your shot or shots.

5. When posting your shot tag it Get-Pushed-13, tag your challenger in the comments and write a short description about what the challenge was, what you found hard about it etc.

6. Maybe the challenger could then critique the photo as well

7. On Monday October 22nd the winner of the previous week will pick 5 finalists for a vote, this can be based purely on their fav photos, who they felt best met the challenge etc, etc.

Have fun and be careful out there!

Once again, many thanks Northy!!
October 13th, 2012
@northy How do you get added to the list? This looks like fun.
October 13th, 2012
@lauriehiggins it is lots of fun :). To get added, you just tell me you want to get added... Chances are someone will come along over next two days in search of a partner and we'll get you paired up!
October 14th, 2012
Thank you Northy!!! :) You are so awesome to take this on!
@northy
October 14th, 2012
I would like to be added please :) sounds like a blast
October 14th, 2012
@northy - Just want to take the time to say a BIG Thank You for doing what you're doing. Keep up the great work - it's really appreciated.
October 14th, 2012
@northy - I'd love to get added to the list. I could use a challenge to get me motivated again. I think it's so awesome of you to take the time to do this!
October 14th, 2012
@northy - thank you for arranging again this week. After this week can you take me off the list as I just don't seem to get the time to fulfil the challenge :( x
October 14th, 2012
you don't love me anymore? how come i'm not on the list? :-) oops! :-(
October 14th, 2012
@megsy i know the feeling! yes - i'll take you off...

@melissapike @tinmaddog - why don't you pair up this week?

and @mellow and @lauriehiggins do you two want to pair up for this coming week?
October 14th, 2012
@summerfield shoot! sorry :( i have no idea what might have happened... can you wait thru today to see if anyone else comes along? if not, you can pair up with me (i deliberately left myself off to cover off any last minute additions without partners).... we could always come up with a uniquely downtown toronto challenge ;p
October 14th, 2012
@northy - thanks, kiddo.
October 14th, 2012
I'll join ... I may need more than a push, but every journey starts with a first step! OH, but I have no history to view ... so, mystique rules the day.
October 14th, 2012
Mel
@lauriehiggins @northy thanks Northy! I'm fine with the pairing, let me know if you are on, Laurie! It's a first for me, looks like it might be for you too? I'll browse your album and post a challenge later today.
October 14th, 2012
@northy It is with great sadness that I need to ask to be pulled from the get pushed challenges starting next week. I have not been able do my part in these challenges for about 3 weeks, and to be fair to future challenges i need to withdraw for the time being. This makes me a very sad panda.
October 14th, 2012
@northy Thank you, Northy! @mellow I'm happy with the pairing too. And yes, this is a first for me, so I'm pretty excited. I'll do the same with your albulm. Do we post the challenge on each other's page or here? Sorry for tne newbie questions.
October 14th, 2012
Oops, I figured it out.
October 14th, 2012
Hi Northy,
I have so enjoyed doing these push challenges for the last few weeks but I am just too busy to keep participating in them. So from next week could you please take me off the list :( Oh and also I did add one more image for you on Friday... :)
October 15th, 2012
Please take me off the list starting next week @northy . Thanks for the ride :)
October 15th, 2012
@summerfield @dlaxton how bout you guys pair up for this week?
October 15th, 2012
@kiwichick hi Lesley... I understand... And I haven't had a chance to look at your low key pic yet - it's been a crazy day!
October 15th, 2012
@northy - okey-dokey! @dlaxton
October 15th, 2012
@summerfield - I'm in. I am out most of the day, but will catch-up this evening.
October 16th, 2012
My partner, @lanina hasn't posted any photo's since Oct 7th. I think she may be away. Is there anyone looking for a partner this week?
October 17th, 2012
@sharritta sorry Sharritta.... So far no one else has come forward looking for a partner :(. I could give you a push if you want...
October 17th, 2012
@northy That would be great! I really like the challenges!
October 17th, 2012
@northy Hi Northy, thanks for keeping the get-pushed challenge going.

Please can you remove me from the list for week 14 because I will be away that week and don't think that i will have internet access. Will message you again when I want to be included again. Thanks!
October 19th, 2012
@northy I think I'm going to be swamped for the next few weeks with work and outside commitments, so could you please remove me from the challenge for the time being? I'll write again when I'm back to full swing. Thanks!!
October 19th, 2012
ok, throw me back in for the next round. thanks!
October 20th, 2012
Vic
@northy Can you please include me in the next available round. I am hoping to take my photography to the next step.
thanks
October 20th, 2012
