message 1: by Janice, Moderator (last edited Jan 09, 2016 07:29PM) (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments Rusalka is going to be away for most of March, which is her month to create a challenge.

We've decided to offer someone a chance to design and administer the March challenge.

Please submit your proposals to me by private message. The moderators will decide who will be presenting his/her challenge in March.

Winner will be announced Feb 15th.


message 2: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments Just submit your synopsis. Explain what your idea is, how it would work, give examples. If your idea is chosen, then you can flesh out all the details like points (if you want them), guidelines, etc.


message 3: by Travis (new)

Travis (travistousant) | 6011 comments I take it you aren't being overwhelmed by eager volunteers


message 4: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments Where's your proposal Travis? The moderators would love to see what you'd come up with.


message 5: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 18545 comments I'm looking forward to seeing what people come up with!


message 6: by Sandra, Moderator (new)

Sandra (sanlema) | 11081 comments I'll like to propose something, but I don't have an idea yet. :)


message 7: by Travis (new)

Travis (travistousant) | 6011 comments I do actually have one but its the badges I don't want to deal with


message 8: by Travis (new)

Travis (travistousant) | 6011 comments Although I should learn how to post pics soneday. I've tried butcan't fugure it out


message 9: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18685 comments I just saw this and will think on it a bit to see if my brain feels like being creative. :) When do you need ideas by?

Yes, Travis....badges = big problem.


message 10: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 18545 comments Badges! Now you know how we feel ;-)


message 11: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18685 comments I don't actually know how to create a badge... you are all more tech savvy than I am.


message 12: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments We should make you post the badges to get a real feel of what it's like. We've got it down to a fine art and will post them for you. Don't let the badges throw you off and stop you from submitting an idea.

If you want, you can create and post the badges. Or, you can email me with a badge, a gif, or an idea and I can take it from there. Or, you can leave it entirely to me. Your choice.

Ah, so I'm not the only one with that problem! ;)


message 14: by Travis (new)

Travis (travistousant) | 6011 comments Challenge submitted. And here I always thought I lacked the creativity.


message 15: by Lanelle (new)

Lanelle | 3919 comments *takes a deep breath*

I've come up with an idea. It's on its way.


message 16: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15864 comments You scared me! I didn't even think about having to make badges.. so glad the mods will take care of that if needed :D


message 17: by Deborah (new)

Deborah Pickstone | 529 comments I have an idea! But would also need help with badges due to manky IT equipment I need to replace - on its way.....


message 18: by Rusalka, Moderator (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19156 comments I'm so reminding you all of this thread one day when you start calling for badges :P

Seriously though, it is super fun to run the challenges. Give it a go (and show me up)!


message 19: by Lanelle (last edited Jan 09, 2016 05:15PM) (new)

Lanelle | 3919 comments I wouldn't need help with the badges.
Well, to be honest, I'd get my hubby to make them :)


message 20: by Mariab (new)

Mariab | 3059 comments Go, creatives of the world!
(I thought about planning a challenge, but in March i won't be able to "administer" it)


message 21: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments I should mention that we'll announce the winner Feb 15th so that the challenge can be uploaded to the group about a week later. That will give you lots of time to come up with ideas. Already, the mods are going to have a hard time deciding.


message 22: by Esther (new)

Esther (nyctale) | 5160 comments funny... I am trying to come up with something and it just does not happen. It seems my potted plant has more imagination than I these days. The only easy part for me would be the badges. So I offer my service for the badge part if needed.

I am the same Esther, I have been trying to come up with something fun and creative but it's not working! I will keep persevering, just in case I have a 'Eureka!' moment at some point! :)

Start calling out for badges indeed! I mean, as if any of us would ever do such a thing! ;)

Feb. 15 isn't a typo, is it?

message 26: by Travis (new)

Travis (travistousant) | 6011 comments I'm just glad I don't have to think up a challenge every other month. Although I didn't thino them all the way through but I had a glimpse on an idea for 3-4 more challenges suprising myself even.


message 27: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments No, Feb 15th is not a typo. That gives time for those Eureka moments. I've got to come up with February's challenge in a week or so... much less time for an "ah-ha" moment.


message 28: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sarahlou29) | 1302 comments Hmmm, I have an idea but is it too late?


message 29: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 18545 comments No, still plenty of time. The winner won't be announced to 15th Feb.


message 30: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sarahlou29) | 1302 comments OMG *slaps self* I thought it said Jan. Silly me

Oh, I did too! I almost replied to Moderator Sarah's comment that today is the 15th.
I have been looking forward to hearing some of the brilliant ideas our members have came up with.


message 32: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments We didn't want you to get so excited about the March challenge that the February challenge goes unnoticed.


message 33: by Sandra, Moderator (new)

Sandra (sanlema) | 11081 comments We have the toppler too in Feb.


message 34: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments Yes, lots to do in February.


message 35: by Tejas Janet (new)

Tejas Janet (tejasjanet) | 3513 comments I just submitted an idea, Janice, related to month of March : )


message 36: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (lisathebooklover) | 9244 comments I managed to come up with an idea which I have just submitted to you, Janice.


message 37: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments We've received quite a few proposals and things have been quiet for the last little while so we decided to make Jan 31st the deadline for submitting suggestions.

That way, we'll have time to go through them all and narrow our selection down to one. We'll still announce the winning proposal on Feb 15th.


message 38: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58943 comments We received some really great submissions for our little challenge contest which made the moderators' job of selecting one very difficult. Thanks to everyone who submitted ideas. Don't be surprised if you see upcoming challenges and/or topplers with your themes. Of course, we will give you a shout-out for the idea.

The submission that we selected for March is Peggy's. She will post her challenge shortly and I think everyone will really like her idea.
