Revision as of 04:42, 14 October 2019
ThemeMonday 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 chat room for organizing - go take a look inside! The @ThemeMonday account also announces the event and helps coordinate.
Don't forget to tell your friends!
Contents
Approximate Process
(Starting a week prior.)
- Weekend: Ask for suggestions,
- Thursday evening: Create poll,
- Saturday evening/Sunday morning: Announce result!
When
ThemeMonday occurs on the second Monday of every month, and is usually maintained for the following week. The poll usually happens the prior week.
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.
Catalog of Avatars
@hutattedonmyarm created a small tool to see users' avatars for a given Theme Monday: https://wedro.online/roastmonday/roastmonday.php
To be included in the list, post with the #ThemeMonday tag, the actual tag of that Monday (e.g., #YourMugMonday), and the word "avatar".
"This is my #themeMonday avatar for #YourMugMonday."
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
(wheren
was the number of tying choices.)
