The Great Write-Off of 2009 – Dan versus Emma
June 8th, 2009 • Miscellany
My friend Emma, whose blog lives online at www.emmabrooks.ca, is having trouble keeping up with her blog regularly. Rather than figure out ways she could do that on her own, she goaded me into accepting a challenge with her for the next month. The rules for the challenge are below, but let me just tell you that Emma has got her work cut out for her – although I’ve been blogging somewhat sporadically as of late, I spent a long time back in my younger days blogging every day. This should be a good habit for me to get into as well.
THE RULES:
- We will post every other day, alternating days between each of us.
- We MUST post on our day – nothing past midnight EST or it counts as being late.
- Posts can be about anything or anything. A funny story, an observation, personal information, etc. However, there must be SOME content to it. Can’t just put up a picture of something and call it a day. (Unless…)
- Unless… you made the picture. Video, audio, visual, text – any and all is an accepted format.
- Days missed or late posts will result in punishments (see more below)
- On our “off” days, we will link to the our competitor’s post (if it’s up within a reasonable amount of time)
- Spamming friends, twitter accounts, Facebook with links to the posts is more than encouraged
PUNISHMENT
- It is up to the punishee to pick their final punishment.
- Punishment options can be picked from either the punisher’s suggestions, or if any commenters have suggestions.
- Must be blog-related (i.e. will be in post form, though can be any of the aforementioned acceptable formats) and please, nothing too illegal, TMI or dirty. We are “professionals” here, after all.
- Punishment must be done within 48 hours of missing a deadline.
