1. some folks don't post much on the weekends, post in clumps (ie: 3 or 4 days of shots in one go) or are at a point in their project when they only post a few times a week... soooo - if your partner doesn't get back to you right away, or appears to be a few days behind, please give it a day or so before asking for a new partner...
2. HOWEVER, if you're partner hasn't posted in weeks and hasn't responded to the last couple of challenges, please let me know... even if you are ok with taking the week off, letting me know helps me keep the list up to date and makes things easier for pairings the following week...
3. IF YOU NEED TO BOW OUT AFTER THE PAIRINGS HAVE BEEN POSTED please let me know in this thread AND please tag your partner... that way they know not to peruse your album, and if someone else pops up looking for a partner before i have a chance to check in, they will be able to sort things out themselves :)
4. i am not a techie and have no way to come up with a program that will prevent repeat pairings from occurring... sometimes it's easy enough to switch out, but not always... so if you end up with someone you've been partnered with before, consider it an opportunity to kick it up a notch now that you kinda know each other, or, y'know for revenge (did they make you do a high key selfie? spend hours trying to figure out how to get a water drop shot? shoot in colour?? ;p)... just sayin'
5. and, as always, if i left you off by mistake (or left you in by mistake!), misspelt your name or otherwise mucked things up, please let me know...
-- Saturday / Sunday, December 21st and 22nd - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday December 23rd thru Sunday December 29th - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-75, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, December 30th - the winner of week 74 will pick 5 finalists for a vote
1. Find your partner from the list below and click on their name to get to their profile
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.
RESPOND TO A CHALLENGE
4. You have until midnight next Sunday, to take and post your shot or shots.
5. When posting your shot write a short description about who challenged you, what the challenge was, what you found hard about it etc. You really should do this because if nothing else, it helps the previous week's winner when they have to choose this week's finalists... besides, if someone is cruising the photos with a "get pushed" tag, they like to see what the challenge was when looking at your photo :)
6. Make sure to tag your shot for the challenge.... Get-Pushed-75
7. Tag your challenger in a COMMENT (not just your write-up). You MUST tag your partner in a separate comment... tagging them in your write-up of your photo is not sufficient as it will not result in them getting a notification...
ALSO
8. it is nice to visit the photo that was made in response to your challenge and offer some comments and maybe even some constructive criticism...
9. On the Monday after the challenge is over, 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.
Dashing off now in a panicked attempt to get ready for Christmas!
@northy hi Northy. I notice that my partner @smithak hasn't posted since 11th December and didn't respond to her last challenge. I'm happy to sit this week out but I thought you ought to know for future challenges. Alternatively, @smithak if you are still around and want to play just let me know.
@kathyboyles hi Kathleen... welcome to 365!! i've got you down on the list to be paired up for next week... if someone comes round looking for a partner for this week, i will pair you up with them... possibly @dh will be looking for a partner as the person she's been paired with seems to be MIA (missing in action), but we don't quite know yet... it's kind of a hectic time of year so people aren't around as much as they usually are... things will no doubt pick up after Christmas :)
@northy hi Northy - I had asked to be dropped from Get Pushed for a while, too much going on for me to give it the attention it deserves. I have a partner for this week and I have already contacted him so I can give it one more shot but please remove me from the list after this week. Thanks!
@obmcreations hi there... i'll add you to the list for next week... did you want to play this week at all? there's someone else who recently joined and she may be looking to play right away... don't worry if you're too busy for this week - it's a crazy time of year!
@northy My partner @mej2011 hasn't posted anything since 1st Dec so is unlikely to be active still, but I can wait until next week for a new challenger as it's difficult to post whilst away from home anyway.,enjoy your Christmas.
@northy I'd like to participate in the next round too. I had a rather long hiatus from Get Pushed due to RL stuff I'd rather not go into, but am back to being active here at 365project, and looking forward to new challenges. :-)
