Another reminder about "Autumn" contest - with a few dates!
Because right at the cusp of the new month we will be searching for the theme for November's contest, let's get the entries in for the Fall contest between Nov. 1 and Monday Nov. 7.
I know that's a bit short - but I have given reminders, and we all know that we'll be asked for our "Autumn" contributions.

This way when we shoot the theme for November we'll be running the "Autumn" contest, and the two won't bother each other much if at all.

I'm open to listen if someone wants to do it differently.
Otherwise, please plan to have your entries ready come Tuesday.

Thanks. I always so love that particular contest, and it pains me I can't enter.
:)

6. I thought at one time we agreed that everyone could enter
the seasonal contests, including the host. Was I dreaming that?

8. Here is how I saw it:
I thought the host was able to enter because there was a co-host.

That way, if it looked like one of the hosts' entries was pulling ahead and possibly going to win, the co-host could take over the rest of the contest in order to make sure there is no way anyone could accuse anyone else of manipulation of anything. I personally think this is ridiculous, but then, one never knows what others think.

It is possible that a ground rule needs to be explored, and I think I will run a poll about it in a minute.

This is the first time that we have a seasonal contest led by the previous winner, I won first place in "Summer", so it is mine to do. In the past it was co-hosted by regnaD kciN and Blueraven, and now the host has to go it alone so I assumed the host will not enter.

Off to set up a poll of the photographers.

7. Mira, you can enter the seasonal
contest, we always let everyone including the host(s) enter the seasonal. Blue you did not imagine that.
