Okaaaay... younger girl and shane are both missing . (hmmmm.) So I appoint the first person to post a comment inside to choose a topic from the wiki or the recent themes thread for today's Photo Friday, and make a post for it.

I'll do it, taking shane's suggestion:

"But is it art?" for abstractions or anything you find interesting

Post coming up.

coooool!

Oh! I forgot to say, you should also appoint someone to pick a theme and post it for next week.

posted by taz 05 October | 09:52

Ah! Will do. (Should I do that here, or email them?)

posted by BoringPostcards 05 October | 09:53

both!

I think it would be great if appointees would announce Friday's topic on Monday in a post that also names the next appointee, and then make the Official Photo Friday Post itself on Friday.

I like that idea, too... posting the theme ahead of time gives people the chance to go out and take pics inspired by the theme.

posted by BoringPostcards 05 October | 09:57

And they should probably email the next appointee on Friday, as well as posting the appointment on Monday, just to remind them to post the topic on the following Monday.

I know... it gets complicated...

Ok... I am alive - just working. :)

I will assign themes to each friday between here and the end of the year - using suggestions from the wiki and the recent thread.

And I will post the thread sometime early each Friday morning.

When would we like to see a thread about the upcoming theme - or should we just have people reference the wiki?

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:03

Agh. Now I'm confused... new appointee each week?

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:04

Heh. *Asplodes youngergirl's head*

That was from this suggestion in the themes thread.

posted by taz 05 October | 10:05

Thanks. I totally missed that. Ok... should I pick next week (10/12), put it in the wiki and pick someone for 10/19? Or is BP now in charge since I shirked my responsibilities?

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:08

No, this is good! You pick next week (if BP hasn't already picked a picker and emailed the picker) and pick someone for 10/19!

I can't stop saying "pick"! Pick!

posted by taz 05 October | 10:11

I'm not paying attention - you told BP to pick someone for next week. Just ignore me now. Please.

I'll just stick to updating the wiki and the work I'm supposed to be doing...

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:11

You take it, youngergirl... I was just pinch-hitting. :)

posted by BoringPostcards 05 October | 10:11

You pick, youngergirl. Pick! Pick!

posted by taz 05 October | 10:12

Three simultaneous comments in the same thread! That's bound to cause a little smoke and sparks in the server, isn't it?

posted by BoringPostcards 05 October | 10:12

pick! (now I'm saying it in a funny voice)

But you don't have to pick now... you just have to pick by monday.

*smoke comes out of ears*

posted by taz 05 October | 10:14

I will pick by monday a theme for the 12th. I will post theme on said thread on the 12th. I will pick someone to pick a theme for the 19th and email the picker.

pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick pick

My brain has officially quit. Thanks guys. ;)

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:19

HA! I meant 'post thread on said theme'

posted by youngergirl44 05 October | 10:20

And you will also post on Monday what the picked theme for Friday is.

Yes.

This is like a great huge game of tag or Duck Duck Goose! Wheeee!

Has the new "Picka Post then Picka Post Picker" process been posted to the Wiki? I'll check and post it later, if not.
