24 hour update button withdrawal wasn't a challenge? ;-)

lol It was is and will be for 10.5 more hours. Hardest part is fighting the temptation to reshoot my entry or do a re-edit. Wife is telling me to leave well enough alone. I wish I could take a really long nap.

Always listen to your wife.... ;-)

What if she tells him to walk off a cliff? ;)

Are we allowed to shoot then today for the "pure" and "transitions II" challenges since the rollover was longer, would shots dated the 13th of June be legal?


Yes. Langdon is changing the challenge dates now.


Nooooooo! Don't give Larus another chance to shoot for this challenge. We're all doomed!

She would cross it. In fact she would cross it twice just to make sure.

As everyone already knows (and hates me for), we missed rollover last night. I'll save you any excuses and just tell you that I stupidly went to bed early last night (~9:30) feeling confident that the rollover script would run smoothly. I even had a dream that I received a text message from someone telling me that it failed.

Typically the site would be shut down during rollover, and as a result, any error would leave the site shut down until morning where I could then resolve the eror, and rerun the script. This situation is different in that the site didn't ever get shut down, and between the two open challenges, 15 new entries have come in since midnight.

Rather than rollover now, we're going to extend the deadline until tonight. I'll get this week's challenges scheduled shortly, but know that if you're submitting to `Transitions II` or `Pure...`, you won't be able to submit today's NEW challenges until Transitions and Pure rollover tonight (because of there will be 4 Exclusive challenges).

I'm glad my bad call could be the catalyst that united the community! :) I'll be reading through the massive/previously-linked thread to enjoy all the haikus, poems, and other creative gems.


Great, I got the shot I wanted to do; I did not like the one I entered very much.

I hope all of us will get to rollover tonight. LOOOOL

Thanks

In the short time I've been here I've always been told that Drew isn't a real person. Just a figment of Langdon's imagination. ;)

Listening is alright. Acting on what you hear is a whole nother thing!

DPC needs international text alerts for this sort of thing.

I turn up to work to find this situation and relaise if I'd taken my camera with me as I left the house I could reshoot my very average "pure" entry now that we have a lovely day. At least voting on it will be one day less - won't it?

Not to complain (ahem), but comments I made in the last 24 hours are showing up as comments made after the challenge ended! :-/

Yeah, we noticed that this morning. Does it really matter, though?

I'd really like it if it could be changed, personally. Doesn't really matter... but I can't help but wonder if people are going to get confused, after the "late rollover" issue fades from memory / new people coming in, etc.

Everything's relative, but yeah, it matters a little.

Oy! More DPL scoring errors. Team with No Name didn't beat Too Lazy to Shoot!

Only 3 members on Too Lazy To Shoot entered for the 3rd round, so an extra 0 was factored in as a penalty.

I thought it was possible for an individual to have 2 top scores in a given week. One being Open, one member. It's not?
