Get Pushed Week 15 - October 29 to November 4th

October 28th, 2012
Please read this part first:

Every week I do my darnedest to make the corrections, additions and deletions from the previous week, but if I do seem to keep mucking things up... soooo... if I have 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 15 Dates

This weeks's challenge runs from Monday October 29th thru to Sunday November 4th... please tag your photos get-pushed-15...

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

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 November 4th, to take and post your shot or shots.

5. When posting your shot tag it Get-Pushed-15, tag your challenger in the comments and write a short description about what the challenge was, what you found hard about it etc. PLEASE NOTE - you MUST tag your partner in a separate comment... tagging them in your write-up of your photo will not result in them getting a notification...

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

7. On Monday November 4th 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!

@northy As you know I'm not doing get-pushed 15 and you did remove me as asked. I do want to remind you that I will want to do it again in get pushed 16. I'm just not going to have computer access for this week.

Even though I'm not doing it this time around I really thank you for all your work taking care of this!
October 28th, 2012
@myhrhelper no worries Kathy... i have you down for just being off this week, and back for week 16 :)
October 28th, 2012
@northy You are doing a great job with this.
October 28th, 2012
@peterdegraaff tx Peter :)
October 28th, 2012
@northy I really appreciate you keeping this alive. It is a really fun thing to be a part of. Thanks:)!
October 28th, 2012
I'd also like to add my thanks @northy it can't be easy to keep track of all this, thanks!
October 28th, 2012
I, too would like to thank you for keeping this going. It cannot be an easy task and one I doubt I'd want to take on! Please know that your efforts are greatly appreciated :-)
October 28th, 2012
Can you slot me back in please Northy? Probably too late for this week, so I will come back in next week? Thanks for all your work with this :-)
October 28th, 2012
@northy Thanks for the last challenge week. It was very challenging and great for me. I am not seeming to find my partner on here? I have searched the name with no luck in results? Thanks for your help;)
October 28th, 2012
@staci2171 oooops! Shld be @dlaxton - sorry!
October 28th, 2012
@asutherland1964 hey Andrew - I'm betting someone else will show up in need of a partner for this week!
October 28th, 2012
@asutherland1964 @northy

Andrew, take my partner, @notsorandompics . I'm out. I am hanging on here by a thread and am about to give up on my project.

Have fun!
October 28th, 2012
@northy - Hey - Unfortunately i still don't have time to do the challenges. Could i be removed from the list and i'll let you know when i have time to get added again thanks for doing all this! ;-)
October 28th, 2012
@northy
Northy, I think its time for me to step away from this challenge. I really appreciate all the hard work and effort you put into these. They were fun to be involved in.

@pocketmouse
Terese, I'm sorry I won't have the opportunity to work with you on this, your work is incredible and you have a very diverse body of photography. It would have been fun working with you on this one.
October 28th, 2012
@northy many thanks for always sorting out for us! This will be my last week particpiating due to 4 out of 5 weeks not getting a challenge with my partner ...
October 28th, 2012
@northy Great, thanks!
October 28th, 2012
Hi @northy, thanks again for organising this. I don't seem to be in the list anymore (I think I might have had my name taken off a little while ago?) but would like to join in again :)

Anyone out there without a partner?
October 28th, 2012
@northy Un fortunately, I have to step away from this project for a while. Thanks.
October 28th, 2012
@notsorandompics Is that ok with you?
October 28th, 2012
@traeumerlein and @tulipgirl - with @makailsmom out, how about you two pairing up for this week?

@pocketmouse and @bluesteel44 - do you want to pair up with @socalgal and @bazanderson pulling out?
October 28th, 2012
@asutherland1964 Sure it is!
October 29th, 2012
Hi @northy, I have never done this before and looks like fun plus I might learn something new which is always a bonus...I would like to be paired up with someone if it's not too late to do so...Thanks :-)
October 29th, 2012
@turning_40 hi Janelle... I'm still waiting for the dust to settle on this week's pairings... i'm sure someone else will chime in within the day looking for a partner... so just hang in, 'k?
October 29th, 2012
Thanks again @northy!
October 29th, 2012
@northy @bluesteel44 I'm happy with that :)
October 29th, 2012
Also sorry about not participating for weeks and weeks... I have been very busy with my course/studies/general life... but things are getting less busy so I should be able to devote more time to 365 :)
October 29th, 2012
Sorry @myhrhelper can you please take me off the list for now, I have really enjoyed participating but am finding it hard to commit the time. I will let you know when I am back. Thank you :)
@ellimae so sorry you will need a new partner this week :)
October 29th, 2012
@michellegaynor Its ok Michelle! I will be busy this week also ..so maybe we can catch up again in the future! :)
October 29th, 2012
@northy I also send my thanks for the ongoing organising the challenge! :)) ...and I think I have slipped off this weeks list, but I will be happy to sit on the interchange bench until next week, unless anyone else needs a partner...
October 29th, 2012
@northy - Yes, i'm pulling out until i have the time to commit. Many thanks for all your efforts northy ;-)
October 29th, 2012
@north more than happy, thank you! :)
October 29th, 2012
Thank youuuu, @norhty. I paired up with @tulipgirl now :)
October 29th, 2012
@turning_40 @ltodd do you two want to pair up for this week?
October 30th, 2012
@turning_40 @northy - thanks Northy, sounds good to me! I'll head on over to Janelle's album right now...
October 30th, 2012
Seemingly my push partner @bluebell is not keen to partake in the challenge. She is still posting but has not responded to the challenge. I will just ride out this week unless someone pops up looking for a partner. Thanks once again for keeping this going, you have immeasurable patience! :-)
October 30th, 2012
@salza hi there, sorry! I am keen but have just been lapse coming up with a challenge, I will get on to it!
