Get Pushed Week 116 - Monday October 13 to Sunday October 19

[☠northy]

PSA

We've had a lot of folks go mia (missing in action) of late. As a reminder - if you're paired up with some who is mia, pls let me know asap. Even if you don't mind sitting the week out. Anyone who is mia gets taken off the list until they reappear and ask to be added back on. This helps limit the number of folks who end up disappointed the following week. tx!

*******************************************************************************************
Week 116 Dates

-- Saturday / Sunday, October 11 and 12 - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday October 13 thru Sunday October 19 - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-116, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, October 20 - the winner of week 115 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-116

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.

Happy trails!!!!

@northy I'm happy to be pa\ired with Trisha @trishaclancy but we have already been paired twice in recent times... the last time for week 114! What do you suggest?

[☠northy]

@vignouse if you want to hang tight for the next day or so, quite possibly there will be a couple other folks who need partners and then we can split you and Trisha up... how does that sound? @trishaclancy

[Richard Sayer]

@northy @trishaclancy Sounds a good solution - I'm on hold!

[Lisa Poland]

@northy @summerfield and I were just partnered just a few weeks ago. We can switch with @vignouse and @trishaclancy.

[☠northy]

@homeschoolmom sure - can you guys sort yourselves out?

[Lisa Poland]

I'll take Richard @vignouse as I haven't been partnered with him before. That will leave @summerfield and @trishaclancy together, if that's OK with them.

[Richard Sayer]

@homeschoolmom @summerfield @trishaclancy @northy This is fine with me if everyone else is in agreement.

[trishaclancy]

I'm fine with that. Still no wifi in new house but I can issue a challenge!

[Brigette]

@northy i'm keen to get back on the list :) but waiting another week if there is no pairing is cool

[Kristen]

Hi @northy Can you remove me from the list for next week? I'm getting married Oct 25 and I'm sure the week will be crazy. I'll rejoin the 2nd week of November

[Junko Y]

@northy -- I need to sign out for awhile as my Aperture program keeps crashing, I haven't yet purchased Lightroom, and I am traveling so I can't get to a computer store to figure out how to resolve the problem. @justaspark I am very sorry to back out on you, but if you want, I can issue a challenge for you, but I won't be able to do one myself. Big apologies.

[☠northy]

@jyokota or - @justaspark could pair up with @brigette

[Jule ♥]

@northy I told Junko it would be fine for me to take this week off as my laptop is in repair too :/ Sorry Brigette, hope you find another partner! @brigette

[CINDY JOHNSON]

@northy i have kristenl and she is going to be out this week if anyone else needs someone

[☠northy]

@pittcj17 how about checking in w @brigette

[Cheri]

I have to bow out - my computer crashed and I do not know when I will
be back! I will let my partner this week know.

[CINDY JOHNSON]

i messaged her @northy

[Milla]

@northy I would like to get in on this again

[☠northy]

@mizzm ok - i don't think anyone is looking for a partner just now, but i've added you to the list for next week... and there's still a decent chance someone else will come looking to be paired up for this week...

[Milla]

ok, thanks

[Deborah Seibly]

Hi Northy - I am back in civilized space . Please add me back for next week's challenge

[Lorraine Hardy]

@northy hi yes I am still going to try to participate. Have issued my challenge. Internet access is sporadic but will do my best

[☠northy]

@debseibly hi Deb... i've added you back to the list... for this week, did you want to play? mizzm above is looking for a partner...

[Anita Russell]

No answer or response for me! It's probably quite late in week now.

[☠northy]

@neatz hi Anita... i will note @la_photographic as mia... i'm not sure if @debseibly and @mizzm got together... i'm not sure Deborah was up for playing this week, so possibly you could pair up with Milla...

[Laura]

@northy @neatz I am not mia I asked for a panorama underneath the photo with the red leaves (it was just before my laptop started playing up and the internet went down). Did my comment not save on your page Anita? I posted the comment after I thanked you for yours on Sunday. I did not notice that you had not replied before now.

[Anita Russell]

@la_photographic no I don't think so, no problem I will do a panorama!

[Milla]

hey @northy i haven't heard anything from @debseibly.

[☠northy]

@mizzm yeah... i'm a bit confused... she hasn't posted since Sept 21 but she did say she wanted to be added back in... possibly she isn't ready to play this week, but i'll keep my eye on things...

[Milla]

ok. well a new week is starting soon and I'd like to be added on the list.

[☠northy]

@mizzm you are definitely ON the list :) i'll be posting the pairings sometime tomorrow
