    I thought we could extend it to next saturday? So there's one week.
    Submitting pics: Tues-Saturday?
    Voting: Sun-Monday? (if there is a run-off... again i don't know how it works...)
    That way there can always be a set rota?
    So i thought this time we'll do it Friday to Saturday, with voting on Sunday and Monday?

    I'll start it now, since it's Friday in 1 hour, and we'll keep it going for a week if people agree with me. Just an idea? Maybe i've completely missed the current rota, which it definitely seems like.

    I'm new to this, so i would really like some direction as to how it works. I'm just setting this one up, someone else has to take over from now, not only am i shite at this, but i'm going on holiday. Hehe.

    I would rather keep it constant at sunday having you photos submitted. Most of us have pictures already taken and just wait to put them up.

    Again, i'm not familiar with it, i just admire the work of all the other photographers who are much better than me. So, will someone please take over these duties as I am another who is unable to? Please and thank you

    I too think that keeping it constant at sunday is a good idea. Just because a vote drags out, doesn't mean people don't have next weeks photos ready.

    Also, thanks for the votes guys! But if #124 is finished, shouldn't the poll be closed?

    I think Street-Dreamer has been a little premature in declaring a winner! The poll isn't due close until tomorrow afternoon and there is still only one vote in it, there's a chance the result could change.

    There's no reason that the next comp entries cannot be started while the run-off is still continuing from the previous week's comp. That's the way things have been done in the past.

    It would end up sliding, probably.

    Bollocks, sorry. Dydzi said to start the new comp asap, even tho he was only behind by the one vote. I just wanted to try and get back to the normal routine the people running the comp have.

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.
