I…guess so. It’s not an path I considered. His absence caught us off guard. We were a very smooth process until Calumam had to leave. Now it’s just me and @nonsowrites.
Apart from the rewards I feel well have to have a shorter and themed season. Maybe a WOTW season of every 5 weeks followed by a short break. There’s a lot involved.
If you need help with something specific to operate the contest, why not post your needs here. I mean, if it is something that is in my wheelhouse to do, I'd assist to keep this project going. And I'm sure others would step up too.
Grandpa always said: "if you don't ask, the answer is always no!"
Yes, @scholaris, we will all step up to support
Thanks for that. I guess I’m a little burned out with finals and learning new programs for a new job at work. I’ll talk to non about it, but I think I know what we need. Probably a new curator. But again I’m new to this.
Rewards aren’t much of an issue. I just need to plan for it. Plus I naturally give more rewards to contestants because of the high level of scrutiny we give. So people participating are rewarded higher than normal.
I completely understand
Hehehehe........ A curator, I would have signed up for this, but, I must confess, my curation is likely to conflict with yours... Lol
so I'll pass up this role.
If this is the case, there is no problem
I think I'm good for now. I responded to @samsmith1971 in this post about a new plan for a more focused season and challenge round.
As far as curation, don't count yourself out. I DO NOT want curators identical to me. The WOTW merit system is meant to be an objective approach to a subjective process. We don't need to agree. We just need to align. That's what the merit system attempts to achieve:
I'll have to scroll down the comments to find it .. .I am on it 🚶🏽♀️🚶🏽♀️
I understand what you mean but I'll still let it pass for now. Maybe, I'll sign up for it in a few months from now. ☺️
I wish luck and the grace to handle everything, sir
Always remember that you have all our support
You have a great point as usual. I’ll look into things further. Maybe I don’t have to pause the contest after all. Perhaps I could even pause for a week to set up a shorter season.
When things are going well, there is a rhythm that develops. A short rest can throw off the rhythm and no rest can burn out the whole engine. So the dilemma is to rest or not to rest. Hopefully others can help you carry the burden. I think it might help if you you make an offer for delegations or POB donations.
A few years ago there was a contest similar to this on Stee**t called Comedy Open Mic. In the announcement post there was always room to announce donations and delegations. I think some of our POB members would like something like that:

The contest went well until Stee*t got F%ked up.
I will love to support the rewards as well
Smiling....
