We're now finishing up Round #1 (thanks to Razib!), and on September 1st we'd like to start Round #2. Here's a list of participants:

razibahmed: South Asia Biz
oswann: BCOM
nancy02664: Nancy's Baby Names
Marilyn Braun: Marilyn's Royal Blog
quidscribis: Peregrinas
Forbidden Snowflake: I might lose my mind
Bayou Bill: Bill's Bilge
DTKelly: The Secret Government EGGO Project
Simran: Everything Indian
KellyC: Pass the Torch
Gooch: Cinema Fromage
Bk_30: Just a Small Town Girl
XThe NavigatorX: Fireflies in the Cloud
MadScientistMatt: Mad Scientist Matt's Lair
asorum: A View from the Waterfront
MicheleLee: Michele Lee and the Road to Print
TaliaMana: Talia Mana
madderblue: Kappa no He


Here's an example of how Round #2 will work:
Catwoman: Meow Blog
Joker: Riddle Me This
Batman: The Awesome Adam West Blog
Robin: Sidekick Chronicles
Penguin: Supervillain Weight Loss Blog​
1. The first person on the list chooses where to start.
Catwoman - "Let's start at Robin's blog."​
2. Everyone on the list writes at least one comment at Robin's blog.

3. Once Robin gets half the comments he's expecting, he tags the next blog. (For Comment Chain #2, this means that you tag the next blog after receiving your 9th comment.)

Robin - "Holy Comments, Batman! I choose you to go next."​

4. As we go from blog to blog, the master list is updated like so:
Catwoman: Meow Blog
Joker: Riddle Me This
Batman: The Awesome Adam West Blog
Robin: Sidekick Chronicles
Penguin: Supervillain Weight Loss Blog​

4. Once everyone else is crossed off, we return to the first person's blog to leave comments and (thereby) close the circle.

5. Big party at the Batcave. (Optional)

6. The person at the top of the list gets bumped to the bottom and we do it all again next month.

But what if Batman wants to do Catwoman's blog (is that code?? ;) ).

Are you saying that no one can choose the first person's blog?

Just trying to make sure I understand.

Yep -- the person who leads things off will be last that round.

So Batman will just have to wait until the next episode to do Catwoman's blog... ;)

Sounds excellent - thanks for organizing Nancy! I suggest we all subscribe to this thread so we are notified of updates.

And would someone be willing to hit me in the head with their milkshake if I'm not doing it right?

I will only attend the party at the batcave if, and only if, we get to do the Bat-tusi.

Round 1 was a lot of fun, sign up folks!
Some of this crew may have bats in their very own personal belfry.

:e2point: Dorky kid in back of the classroom raises hand and makes annoying sounds to get attention: "Like, you know, are we gonna be tested on all this?"

I was thinking we'd give it a few days and then start. Let a few more people join. (Unless you guys want to start sooner -- whatever the consensus is.)

Os - Razib will start things off by picking the first blog. Once everyone comments on that blog, its owner will then pick victim #2, and so forth...

Wow, there's a lot going on over here on Friday night. Not much all day, then I come back and BAM! (POW! WHAM!) -- posts all over. Crazy! :)

I know it's not quite September yet, buuut...I think that everyone who wants to participate has spoken up. So, Razib, feel free to kick things off whenever you want. :)

I can start any time but what I am exactly supposed to do? Which blog should be the first that I put comment?

Ok, I have selected Marilyn's Royal Blog for this and I have already posted a comment there. So, I guess this starts AW Comment Chain 2. I would request Marilyn to disable Comment moderation in her blog for the next few days.

I'm going to make a suggestion. As each person selects the next blog to comment on, if that person could repost the link to that blog just to save others the trouble of hunting down the post with the links on them... :)

Marilyn's blog for this event is, um, http://marilynsroyalblog.blogspot.com/ I think. :)

I'll go comment now... :tongue
