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, June 28th and 29th - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday June 30th thru Sunday July 6th - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-102, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, July 7th - the winner of week 101 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-102
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 hi Northy I need to bow out of this for a little bit, I seem to be starting work when it's dark and finishing when it dark. So not much time for photography... But thanks again for your organizing efforts..
@northy, I'm doing Get Pushed 102 this week, but I need to step back from it for a few weeks after that.
I've had a few partners in the last few months that gave me a challenge but never did the challenge that I proposed for them, and it was a bit disheartening to overcome a lot of challenges in my schedule and location to do what they asked me to do, but then never getting to see their interpretation of what I proposed to them.
So please do not give me a partner starting with Get Pushed 103. I just need a break for a bit.
@bernicrumb hi Berni... so sorry to hear that your experience with the challenge hasn't been that great... i understand needing a break... just let me know when you want back in again...
Hi @northy - can you please take me off the list after this week - just for a couple of weeks though. I'm off on holiday and won't have access to a computer. I'll get back in touch when I get back :)
@northy Hi - I'm all moved in. I can't find any newer threads than this, but go ahead and add me in for the next week. I posted it on your page, too, in case you don't see this older thread.
