−
A hackathon usually occurs every two or three months. This is a dedicated time where people come together on Pnut to hack, design, code and create things for Pnut that you otherwise wouldn't work on.
+
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.
  
−
== Q & A ==
+
[[@blumenkraft]] set up a [https://patter.chat/room/779 #ThemeMonday chat room] for organizing - go take a look inside! The [[@ThemeMonday]] account also announces the event and helps coordinate.
  
−
==== Do you have to be a developer? ====
+
Don't forget to tell your friends!
−
No, we will be providing suggestions for non-developers to work on. Some project idea/goal categories we've come up with so far are:
 
−
* Ways to engage users (including you, of course!)
 
−
* How to introduce and familiarize new users to Pnut.io
 
−
* Essay-format writings about what Pnut.io means to you
 
  
−
==== How can I participate? ====
+
== Approximate Process ==
−
Signing up is not required - however we ask that you drop a note in [https://patter.chat/room/212 the hackathon chat room] to let us know that you're planning to participate. Please drop in on us on that day to mix, get support, and bounce ideas around, as well. We plan for people to meet and organize in that room before moving off to their own individual project-based discussions.
 
  
−
==== Do you have to have an idea in mind already? ====
+
(Starting a week prior.)
−
No, other people will be sharing their ideas for projects.
 
  
−
==== Do I have to work in a group? ====
+
# Weekend: Ask for suggestions,
−
No, you can work on your own if you'd like to.
+
# Thursday evening: Create poll,
 +
# Saturday evening/Sunday morning: Announce result!
  
−
==== How long will it run? ====
+
=== When ===
−
The hackathon will take place over the weekend.
 
  
−
==== What happens when the hackathon ends? ====
+
ThemeMonday occurs on the second Monday of every month, and is usually maintained for the following week. The poll usually happens the prior week.
−
We hope that you'll submit an explanation of what you did in the chat room and/or globally. Your project does not have to be complete--it can still just be in the ideas/planning phase, even! It can be as simple as a short note of what you worked out and want to share with the community.
 
  
−
==== Does my project have to be done by the end of the hackathon? ====
+
== Byelaws ==
−
Absolutely not. We're just hoping to get similarly-minded people together to get projects started. BUT if you do work on your project *after* the hackathon, please let us know, too!
 
  
 +
* 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.

* Originally proposed by [[@alicia]] and ably implemented and run by [[@berklee]], [http://bazbt3.github.io/thememonday/ #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 <code>roll 1dn</code> (where <code>n</code> was the number of tying choices.)

Revision as of 05:14, 8 June 2020

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!

Approximate Process

(Starting a week prior.)

  1. Weekend: Ask for suggestions,
  2. Thursday evening: Create poll,
  3. 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 (where n was the number of tying choices.)
