-- 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...
-- HOWEVER, if you're partner hasn't posted in over a week and hasn't responded to their last challenge, 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...
IF YOU NEED TO BOW OUT AFTER THE PAIRINGS HAVE BEEN POSTED please let me know asap 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 :)
DID I MUCK SOMETHING UP?
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, March 29th and 30th - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday March 31st thru Sunday April 6th - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-89, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, April 87th - the winner of week 88 will pick 5 finalists for a vote
*************************************************************************
How to play:
TO ISSUE A CHALLENGE
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-89
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.
@northy this is my first get pushed just want to make sure I understand. Do we challenge them to do something out of their normal or just anything? So excited for this....
@picmommy hi Missy... the idea is to challenge them to something out of their normal... so it's good to look thru the last month or so of their project to see what their "normal" is :)
@macromover hi Jan... i've now added you to the list for weekly pairings and you'll get paired up with someone next week... for this week, do you want to see if @riverlandphotos is ready to play?
@obmcreations@northy I just sent you a challenge. I've been taking pictures, just having a hard time uploading. I got a moment today and there's about to be a photo dump. Also, you gave the challenge yesterday according to the date stamp on it.
@silverhorn hi Rose... are you playing this week? or do i need to find someone else for your partner?
@kali66 so sorry about that Kali... yes, she's travelling, and kind of went mia before, but then reappeared before the end of the week and i thought she was still playing... i've noted her as mia for now... there's one new person signed up late who might want to play, but before i pair you up with her, i want to wait to see if Rose is playing this week or not...
@northy can I suggest finding someone else, I'm barely picking up the camera at the moment and not getting a lot of time to get things done.. house renovating
@northy Hi Northy - I'm finding myself in a bit of a rut at the moment, not knowing what to photograph each day... perhaps a challenge will help. Could you include me in the next challenge list please. Thanks!

My partner @paign has not responded to her last 4 challenges from people in this group, 5 including mine which I gave out a couple of days ago.

@kali66 Kali - did you want to check in with Rose's partner @blueberry1222 ?
