Get Pushed Week 14 - Oct 22 to 28

October 21st, 2012
Please read this part first:

As always, I've done my darnedest to make the corrections, additions and deletions from last week, but if I have once again 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 14 Dates

This weeks's challenge runs from Monday October 22nd thru to Sunday October 28th... please tag your photos get-pushed-14...

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

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 October 28th, to take and post your shot or shots.

5. When posting your shot tag it Get-Pushed-14, tag your challenger in the comments and write a short description about what the challenge was, what you found hard about it etc.

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

7. On Monday October 29th 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!

Missed me this time ;)
Put me down as available for the next person that needs a partner please :)
October 21st, 2012
@mgirard oh crap! Sorry! I swear there are gremlins in my spreadsheet or something... Ok - give it a day - someone is bound to ask to get added...
October 21st, 2012
Thank you again for organizing this!

Northy, I love these challenges. I will need to skip Get-Pushed-15 (ONLY week 15 please) since I will be on vacation and not sure about internet access at that time.
October 21st, 2012
@northy No worries! :) I'm sure keeping this all straight is tough enough, I'm sure there will be somebody :)
October 21st, 2012
waaaaaaaahh!!!!!!
October 21st, 2012
Ok, I want to get added again. I applaud you for still getting this going! I think I can be teamed up with Michael?
October 21st, 2012
@mgirard @northy - Hi looks like it's an old list maybe? Unfortunately i don't have the time at present to do the challenge ;-( but will hopefully be back soon - @bernicrumb will need a partner! thanks for doing all this northy, it is very much appreciated
October 21st, 2012
@northy - I'm not on this one either.
October 21st, 2012
@summerfield ack! sorrry... not sure what happened... with Baz dropping off, perhaps you could pair up with @bernicrumb ?

@mgirard @geertje how 'bout you two pair up?
October 21st, 2012
@northy @mgirard Sounds great, thank you!
October 21st, 2012
@dlaxton botheration! ok - give it a few hours - someone else is bound to show up in need of a partner... i definitely had you down on the list... i'm not sure what's happening... hopefully no one else got missed... :(
October 21st, 2012
@geertje @northy Works for me! :)
October 21st, 2012
I'm fine partnering with @summerfield if necessary. :-)
October 21st, 2012
@northy I think I was missed this time. If there is no one to partner with, I'm happy to sit it out this week
October 21st, 2012
@northy - thank you lots, dear.

@bernicrumb - hello, will be browsing through your album later. thanks.
October 21st, 2012
@summerfield - You're welcome! I'm planning on browsing your album this evening. I look forward to the challenge.
October 21st, 2012
@abhijit ok - now i'm a little freaked... you were absolutely on my spreadsheet... i know this because your name was first (it's in alpha order) and i SAW it there yesterday before i did the pairings... i have NO idea how your name could have disappeared.... my abject apologies... i will pair you up with the next person who comes along... and i'm going to do a housekeeping discussion for the list and start a new file for it...
October 22nd, 2012
Kaz
Hi Northy, Pushing myself to get out of my comfort zone so sign me up for the get-pushed challenge please. Happy to start this week if you have an extra or put me down for next week.

Cheers - Kaz
October 22nd, 2012
@kazzamazoo hi Kaz... i'll add you to the list for next week... meanwhile, how 'bout you pair up with @abhijit for this week?
October 22nd, 2012
Kaz
Okies :-) So I just post straight to their wall then?
October 22nd, 2012
@kazzamazoo yep - go to their latest photo to post the challenge...
October 22nd, 2012
@northy Thanks so much for organising, however I think this is the last week I can take part in for a while as teaching commitments are building up - will be back at the end of term though!
October 22nd, 2012
Thank you greatly @northy - I don't know how you can get any sleep!
October 22nd, 2012
If someone needs a partner, I'll play this week ...
October 22nd, 2012
Lyn
Hi, Northy! @northy It looks as though @ayearinthelifeof Eddy is on his way out; his post today is a goodbye shot. Would appreciate another pairing if possible!
October 22nd, 2012
@northy I have not participated in this yet, can I be counted "in" for this weeks get pushed oct 22-28 ???
October 22nd, 2012
@northy my partner hasn't posted since October 16 ... wondering whether I should be paired up with someone else this week?
October 22nd, 2012
@northy, my partner ( @riversdale ) hasn't posted since 16th October. I could be partnered with any of the above four people ( @dlaxton @lyno @eryck or @alisonp )
October 22nd, 2012
@jjefferies i'll pair if you like for this week?
October 22nd, 2012
@alisonp yeah sure alright :)
October 22nd, 2012
@jjefferies challenge set :-)
October 23rd, 2012
@katharinehubbard - ok - taking you of the list...

@spirrowshoot - sleep is overrated ;p

so it looks like there are three of you who need partners: @dlaxton @lyno @eryck -- care to do a 3 way?

@dlaxton can push @lyno
@lyno can push @eryck and
@eryck can push @dlaxton

(and hopefully no one else will come out of the woodwork over the next day ;p)
October 23rd, 2012
Lyn
whoa. . .now THAT sounds like a lot of fun! Leave it to northy to think up something like this. @northy

@eryck I'll get started on taking a look at your albums right away!

@dlaxton If this is okay with you, I'll wait to see what you send my way!
October 23rd, 2012
@lyno, @northy, @eryck ... ah yes, a carnage et trois .... I'll get something posted to @lyno in the next hour or so and will eagerly await a post from @eryck.
October 23rd, 2012
@northy Starting next week, I will be with limited Internet connection until the November 15.
October 23rd, 2012
@hjbenson ok - i'll take you off the list... you let me know when you want back on... 'k?
October 23rd, 2012

October 24th, 2012
