October Blogroll?

Ralph Pines · 09-15-2008, 09:44 PM

The August one was fun, I would like to participate in another (before Hurricane NaNo hits). What say you?

L M Ashton · 09-16-2008, 07:53 AM

Are you volunteering to organize it?

Ralph Pines · 09-16-2008, 07:56 AM

Sure. Would mitigate for my screw up the last time. Point to where I can find the "How to" file and we are off.

Unfocused Me · 09-16-2008, 07:59 AM

Count me in. Anyplace but first.

Ralph Pines · 09-16-2008, 08:02 AM

I think that the responsibility for kicking off the blogroll starts with me. So no worries there. Would second place be acceptable?

L M Ashton · 09-16-2008, 05:00 PM

Excellent! Thanks for stepping up, Ralph.

If you need/want the thread title changed, please let me know and I'll take care of it. Also, if you have any questions or need any help, please also let me know. Since you're the one in charge of organizing, you're the one who gets to decide the rules.

Unfocused Me · 09-16-2008, 05:38 PM

Second's fine. Themed or unthemed?

Sassee · 09-17-2008, 07:31 PM

pick me pick me!

Feathers · 09-17-2008, 08:03 PM

I've been eyeballing this for a while and think I might enjoy participating, but I'm not exactly sure what I'd be doing :p Could you get some kind of rules up? Something to go by?

Ralph Pines · 09-17-2008, 10:40 PM

The Blogroll rules are as follows (according to BlogGoddess and all around nice gal colbymarshall1):

Quote:

The chain works the following way:

It's not themed.
The first person just makes a post on their blog.
The person following will take some element from the previous blogger and make their own post, including that element. Please link back to the previous poster with a permalink and also include a link to the blog of the next poster.
The last person tries to tie their post to the first poster and to the previous poster
Please post the links in your blog of everyone participating in the chain, if possible.

So far we got:

Me (Ralph Pines)
Unfocused Me
Sassee
Feathers

As for theme, well technically its not themed but who ever starts basically sets the tone for it. I'll leave it that way for flexibility sake.

So who else wants in?

colbymarshall1 · 09-17-2008, 10:56 PM

I'm in! And thanks for running it, Ralph!

Sassee · 09-18-2008, 01:14 AM

I posted a reply up there, you know.

Ralph Pines · 09-18-2008, 01:32 AM

All fixed. Sassee comes at #3 in our blogroll countdown with colbymarshall1 at #4.

FreshHell · 09-18-2008, 08:09 PM

Bump-ity!

mbroadway · 09-24-2008, 09:07 PM

I'm not sure what it's all about, but you can include me in the list. As long as I can write something about Corvettes or Fifties Nostalgia, I'm good to go. Not sure I understand the rules yet. I'm new and slow. But willing to help and participate.

mbroadway · 09-24-2008, 09:08 PM

After reading some other posts, maybe I should have included my addresses...

Sorry

Feathers · 09-24-2008, 09:50 PM

Alright, so this starts Oct 1? Cool. My blog address:

www.HeaddeskForWriters.blogspot.com

I guess it's kinda late to mention this, but I try to post on particular days each week, so I may not post the exact day after whoever went before me. That kosher?

rosemerry · 09-24-2008, 10:56 PM

Count me in.

Whatever posts I make that aren't on Sundays are just bonus posts.
