- if I've left you off the list when you should be on (or left you on when you should be off), please post to this thread ONLY and i will get it fixed... (it becomes awfully challenging to keep track when you post to other threads)
-- If you've never played before but want to join up, please post to this thread as well...
-- IF YOU ARE ON THE LIST BUT I SPELLED YOUR NAME WRONG PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!
-- Saturday / Sunday, April 6th and 7th - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday April 8th thru Sunday April 14th - take a picture in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-38, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, April 14th - winner of week 37 will pick 5 finalists for a vote
NOTE:
If you are paired up with someone who has gone MIA (hasn't posted in a couple weeks or does not post a challenge to you by Tuesday at midnight GMT), please let me know by responding to this thread... AND PLEASE TAG THE PERSON IN YOUR RESPONSE... this does 2 things... (1) it gives a little nudge to your partner and (2) it helps me because then i don't have to search thru my spreadsheet to see who you are partnered with before going to my master list spreadsheet to note that they are MIA :)
*************************************************************************
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-38
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 as always thanks for doing this again, but it seems that @phillyphotos with @la_photographic are matched up again (we are partners now for week 37).
@phillyphotos ugh... it happens and it's the one thing i can't realistically manage to avoid... ok - chances are someone else will need a switcheroo or there will be more folks looking for partners and we'll be able to sort this out
@dtigani oh dear... i just switched that other pair around... we can wait and see if another pair shows up looking to switch, or two more people want to play... 'k?
@northy@scrivna Is the issue with the confusion between my username and Joanna Payne's somehow solvable? Her username always seems to become a link to my project and it's causing some misunderstandings here. :)
@northy Hi there! Um just a small thing, but in the list only the first 3 letters of my tag are blue and it's causing problems with Johanna whose tag is actually @joa! Apparently several people have contacted her instead of me to issue challenges. Thanks. Great job an' all...
@northy Unfortunately life has gotten really busy and i have not had much time to focus on my project. Please take me off the list for the foreseeable future. thanks!
@lynnb - hey Lynn... looks like your partner has to bow out for this week... so far no one else has come along looking to play but maybe if you hold tight one more day? or, y'know... i could give you a push ;p
@northy I was wondering....she hadn't responded but you said to give until Tuesday so I was waiting....I can wait until next now....you must have a ton on your plate. Thanks for letting me know.
Tweets ahoy!

hey guys... you probably missed responding to the housekeeping thread... no worries, adding you back to the list...
James and Robin, how about you pair up for this week?
M9 - indeed, you'll get whoever is next!
and then @la_photographic can pair up with @m9f9l
i was on and would like to have a partner again thanks.
@noragentian and @momsta can pair up. If you have been paired up in the past, let us know today so we can swap.
@momsta Michelle, we are partners for this week. Looking forward to your photos.
