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, July 26th and 27th - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday July 28th thru Sunday August 3rd - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-106, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, August 4th - the winner of week 105 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-106
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 Thanks for including me this week. I would like to participate next week as well but I'm on holiday in Cuba. I'm unsure of the wifi. Just in case, take me off the list for next week. Thanks!
@northy My sister is on this thread. She is actually the one who got me to join. But she is not an ACE. Are competitions only for ACE members? She says she doesn't see them.
@joansmor ??? The challenges are for everyone!!! When you say she doesn't see them, are you saying she doesn't get a notification? Is she listed above?
@janiskay here is the discussion for the get-pushed challenges. Just reply to this and @northy will add your name to the list going forward. Come on sis and play with me.
@northy sorry Ive been missing in action here the last few weeks. Im going to go ahead and ask to be removed for a while so I dont let anyone else down as a terrible partner.
