Needs updates, removal of broken ADN & related links. The page is missing a lot of events; it would be nice to have all the post-ADN ThemeMondays here. Status: Ongoing. Bazbt3 (talk) 06:40, 2 October 2017 (CDT) |
#ThemeMonday
What is #ThemeMonday?
#ThemeMonday (live hashtag at pnut.io) has a simple premise; a group of like-minded people change their avatars on or around the second Monday of every month, to a theme chosen by them after shortlisting and then a vote.
@blumenkraft set up a #ThemeMonday Patter chat room - go take a look inside!
Approximate timeline, rule:
(Starting a week prior.)
- Weekend: Ask for suggestions,
- Thursday evening: Create poll,
- Saturday evening/Sunday morning: Announce result!
See also the Byelaws at the foot of this document.
History:
- Originally proposed by @alicia and ably implemented and run by @berklee, #ThemeMonday (an ADN Wiki page) was indisputably App.net's most popular regular event. @bazbt3 took over from @berklee and ran it for a while. App.net closed down on March 16 2017 so most links below will cease to work, but the memories of all participants will undoubtedly remain with them forever.
- In the event of a tiebreaker being necessary, @bazbt3 previously sent a PM to @mlv's Eliza_Bot, asking her to
roll 1dn(wherenwas the number of tying choices.)

Byelaws:
- In the event of a tiebreaker being necessary @bazbt3 will roll a die. To be determined due to location-based constraints: whether a physical, electronic or totally imaginary die will be utilised.
- Effective theme recycling strategies are one key to success; participants tend to guide suggestions away from those already chosen for #ThemeMondays. However, dependence on e.g. world events, the seasons, nostalgia, etc.; all of these preclude the setting of formal rules.
