How the list was created and how to play
- Firstly I added the words that were nominated for specific dates, for example Superstition on the 13th for Defy Superstition & Positive Thinking Day
- I then counted up the number of times that the words were nominated and attaching those to the matching date (for example “Pencil” was nominated 6 times so is on the 6th)
- Where there were two or more with the same count, I added these randomly throughout the month.
- Some words that I have not included as they have been used in recent months, for example although ‘Back to school’ was requested 22 times, this has been done in both July and August. I have however left ‘Bus (School Or Otherwise)’ in as this was requested 4 times and gives an option for school, motion or something like bus stops, etc.
- I have also grouped some words together, for instance: Nightscape for Dusk, Dark and Night Photography and Weather - Sun Rain Wind Storm
- As agreed in previous months, the following words are bonus words each month; Birthday and Anniversary along with the Star Signs and Birth Stones.

Thank you, for creating this list once again much appreciated that you keep this ongoing - it's fabulous especially when lost mojo. I've been so busy lately and lost inspiration but hopefully I will join in this month to get back into 365. Have been missing it..
Thanks Bulldog, this looks interesting, although I shan't be posting for the next five days as I'm away enjoying myself again. I can tell you retirement is really tough ;)
