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 :)
WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING FOR YOUR PARTNER, REMEMBER:
-- 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...
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, May 10th and 11th - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday May 12th thru Sunday May 18th - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-95, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, May 19th - the winner of week 94 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-95
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.
@aprilmilani hey April... i'll take you off the list and find someone else for @emblegemble to pair up with... someone else is sure to come along looking for a partner, so i don't think there will be any problem with this...
@northy Northy. I am out of action for the next few weeks. Sorry to tell you so late in the day. Please can you take me off the list. Thank you very much.
@northy - this reminded me that I need to bow out after this week for about 4 weeks. Two major trips coming up and I don't want to disappoint a partner. I'm not sure what the internet situation will be. I'll be able to participate this week for the first half so will be okay for the current round.
@northy Hi there - my partner for this week, hasn't posted a photo since 19th April, and I don;t think she responded to the last two challenges either, so maybe I could get a new partner. Maybe @annika82
Hi Northy, I will complete this current week GP-95 challenge, but I will be travelling for the few weeks after this, so I will bow out until further notice. thanks for organising the GP.
Hi Northy. Sorry, but can you take me off the list. The last person did not post or comment and the current one is not contacting. I appreciate your ideas and look forward to joining up again later but it is a busy few weeks and frustrating if my partners do not show an interest. Thanks.
Hi Northy, not had much luck getting responses last few weeks. Last week I got a response but my challenge was not done. This week I see my partner has not been on site since 17 April. Thought I would let you know
@kathyboyles hi Kathy... so sorry to hear that your partner seems to be missing in action... i am not sure at this point whether there is anyone else in need of a partner for this week, i'm afraid... i will pair you up if there is... if not, you'll get a new partner next week...
@neatz so sorry to year that Anita... did @brigette contact you? i had already given her a partner, but if she's up for two partners, that's grand.. if not, @kathyboyles may still be looking for a partner...
@callymazoo i'm soooooo sorry to hear that Cally... yes - completely frustrating when that happens... and of course the more so when you're short on time... i'll take you off the list for now... do let me know when you want to join back in...
@northy No, nothing, not to worry it's nearly the next week. Hope for better luck. You do a grand job thank you. You cannot be responsible for everyone getting involved and we all have different priorities. This is my first year so very keen but notice people just can't keep up that enthusiasm.
I understand this as it does take a bit of time. Thanks
Hi @northy - my partner this week - @smurfmuffin - hasn't posted since May 6. I was happy to go without a challenge this week but you might want to check and see if she's still interested before pairing her up next week.
Tweets ahoy!

@taylor_gaylee hi Taylor... you're added to the list... stay tuned, someone else is bound to come along looking for a partner...
I understand this as it does take a bit of time. Thanks
