List of Shame - Week 18

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Another week another long list of people who haven't turned in an entry less than 24 hours away from the deadline.

I'm starting to think people just like being on the list, but it does make me wonder what would happen if I *didn't* remind them!!!*G*

We are still waiting for entries from

lifeinamarble
mandolinorange
mermaidkween
monkeysugarmama
oberonia



The last entry that I saw was from strryeyedgrrl

Ha, I am almost never on this list.

Biggest problem with this week's topic? How to write it without coming from a place of defensiveness, because a way to get people to like your entry is not to not-so-subtly accuse them of shit.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Or change the names to protect the guilty? :)

[rm.livejournal.com]

Ah, but I don't wish to accuse anyone of anything. I think defensiveness isn't fun to read, but getting around it with this topic is hard.

[bewize.livejournal.com]

Well, you've piqued my interest. Who are you accusing of shit?

*intrigued*

[rm.livejournal.com]

I am trying not to!

[brightflashes.livejournal.com]

Sometimes making a statement wins people over, sometimes not. I'm sure whatever you do, you'll pull it off gracefully, whether you go with this idea or a different one. Looking forward to whatever you write. :)

[rm.livejournal.com]

Yes and that topic also got a lot of defensive entries, and I didn't find it fun to read!

[mermaidkween.livejournal.com]

I do like being on the list. Ding ding ding.

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

Whatever. It's not what you think - this is the made of awesome list.

Some of us have really demanding jobs and schoolwork and stuff you know. :p

[mermaidkween.livejournal.com]

And some of us just need the kick in the pants.

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

I work better under pressure!

[monkeysugarmama.livejournal.com]

I say that too, although I have rarely tried it any other way so honestly, I don't know the difference, lol!

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

Also guilty!

But I'd like to point out that I've never posted my entry later than Thursday night, because the deadline falls during my work hours on Friday. It's not *my* fault that Gary has taken to posting the LOS on Thursday night. You can't let him push you around, you see. I change for no man!

[blueashke.livejournal.com]

Pish, and by that you mean 'eating bonbons and studying French maids as they bend over to dust things' right?

:huggles: Thank you for being there for me kiddo. I know your post will be awesomesauce!

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

No that's what I do in my leisure time! Love you.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I think I've managed to avoid the LOS both last season and this season, w00t. :)

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

If I ever end up on the LoS, chances are I'm gone due to time differences, so that's why I always submit really early - I panic about losing track of time!

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

You should get a reward for that.

:discreetly coughs in Gary's direction:

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

*snort*

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Well, just think of it...how many people actually have NEVER made the LOS in any season?

You
Me as of the week before last
Spydie (I think)

I know I'm missing people...see, this is what happens when you don't keep track!

:thinking:

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Noted.

[mermaidkween.livejournal.com]

I've always wondered - is there a point to noting the LoS, or is it just another thing we do like firsts?

[blueashke.livejournal.com]

Nah, just another thing. I totally get the OCD'ness of the spreadsheets, I do other ones for pure fun.

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

She just really likes keeping track of things, and as long as everyone knows it's just a quirk of hers and not anything official I humor it.*G*

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

What he said. Nothing official.

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

Wow, that is one serious spreadsheet. That makes me kinda hot.

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

In a feverish "I wish I hadn't seen that" way?

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

No, not that way ;)

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

*feels all nerdy now*

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

Yay for hawt and nerdy!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

It makes me kinda cross-eyed!

[sasseyfrass.livejournal.com]

Some folks work well under pressure.

Some procastinate until the last minute and that is the only way they work.

[hexkitten.livejournal.com]

I'm all out of love. I'm so lost without -

Oh, hello!

My entry is in. KA-CHOW!

[tsarina.livejournal.com]

I blame journalism - I only write on deadlines.

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

What she said!!

[mermaidkween.livejournal.com]

Thirded! I wrote all of my editorials at the last minute. :)

[pinkslit.livejournal.com]

This is the first time in weeks that I've not been on the List!
Go Team Me!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Ha! You so funny!

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

I just need to ... you know, write it. No really, just some adding and editing and tweaking and obsessing... will have it posted by noon! :)

[bewize.livejournal.com]

I think this is two weeks in a row I haven't been on the list. I know I was near the top for a while... I may be risking the one title I"m most likely to get. Most Procrastinatey. ;)

[scienter.livejournal.com]

It would appear that I am just taking up permanent residence there on the LOS.

It is now past midnight and I STILL have no ideas. Usually by this point, I at least have a few glimmers to work from, but not this time.

This should be interesting.

[caersidi.livejournal.com]

My LJ entry and the deadline is always on my mind though the reminder is appreciated.

Mine is partly written but this has been a toughie for sure.

[jfargo.livejournal.com]

My post is now up there.

It's not that I need a reminder. I just like having my name up in lights. :-D

[monkeysugarmama.livejournal.com]

HA! Funny you mentioned it because I was planning to post a spunky
"I LIKE the list of shame, neener neener" post in here today, lol.

And trust me, list or no, I know EXACTLY when the deadline is. I watch it out of the corner of my eye, creeping toward me all week long, wondering if I'm going to catch IT, or IT'S going to catch me this time!

[agirlnamedluna.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure I'll actually produce something worth posting in time ... so keep tuned in lol

[jfargo.livejournal.com]

Yay, everyone made it on time! (I just went and double-checked at 6:52.)

At this stage in the game it would be a HUGE shame for someone to be out for missing the deadline.
