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.
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.
@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
@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... :(
@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...
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.
@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!
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!
@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.
Hi @northy, thanks again for organizing this, I will be out of town next week so if you can take me off for next week, I will let you know when I am back.
@hopess13 I have just started a new job so have been struggling a bit to keep up with 365. I will go and have a peek at your album, I am pretty sure I follow you already :)
@vstowe hi victoria... i'll add you in for next week... quite possibly someone will come along looking for a partner tonight or tomorrow in which case you could get paired up this week...
@northy : Hello Northy! I prefer stopping this challenge for few weeks: I am late on my last challenges and haven't time enough... So thank you to take me off ; I will let you know when I will be back. Thank you for organizing this challenge: it's a great one! :o)
@northy I would like to take a break. Thank you so much for taking on the challenge of this very fun way to learn and meet new people. I will let you know if/when I return.
@northy Hi. Is it too late to join in for week 15? Or I'm happy to wait to see if anyone is in need of a partner for whatever reason, then please defo add me for week 16. x
Put me down as available for the next person that needs a partner please :)
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.
@mgirard @geertje how 'bout you two pair up?
@bernicrumb - hello, will be browsing through your album later. thanks.
Cheers - Kaz
@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)
@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!
@vstowe hi victoria... i'll add you in for next week... quite possibly someone will come along looking for a partner tonight or tomorrow in which case you could get paired up this week...
@jantan ok - adding you in
