Big Al Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) Mikeweil has graciously consented to let me take over the reins of the Blindfold Test for a while (indefinitely, at least four games ). Here's the list as it stands as of Thursday, October 16: # 60 - Eloe Omoe - August 2008 # 61 - fent99 - September 2008 # 62 - Mr. Bassman - October 2008 # 63 - Claude Bartee - November 2008 # 64 - sidewinder - December 2008 good to go # 65 - Durium - January 2009 good to go # 66 - Nate Dorward - February 2009 # 67 - RDK - March 2009 good to go # 68 - Dan Gould - April 2009 good to go # 69 - Bill Barton - May 2009 good to go # 70 - wordsand sounds - June 2009 # 71 - mikeweil - July 2009 # 72 - EKE BBB - August 2009 # 73 - Dmitry - September 2009 I will send a blanket PM to everyone on the list. Whoever I haven't heard from by Sunday night 10:00 pm US central time will be moved to the end of the list, and everyone else will be moved up accordingly. December is my target date to start discussion on what will be BFT #60. Once the new list is set, I'll figure out a way to start a new Master BFT thread carrying all the links to the previous BFTs. Post any and all questions here. Thanks again, Mike, and thanks especially for heading it up all this time.

Big Al Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Sidewinder, I didn't include you on the PM because a) that would've made 13 cc's, and I'm only allowed 12 and b) you stated in the previous thread that you were ready to go.

Indeed I am, Big Al. December launch date is cast in jello concrete. :rsmile: Edited October 16, 2008 by sidewinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDK Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) PM sent, Al. I've been down, but not out. I'm also good to go with little notice if need be. Edited October 16, 2008 by RDK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 If I may make a suggestion, I don't think its necessary to set such a short time period for people to respond, or lose their spots. If we presume that Sidewinder will be good to go in December, that gives everyone six weeks to step up and confirm or else to be dropped. The goal should be to give people a chance to participate starting in January 2009, and you do that by giving them a chance to respond and confirm.

Big Al Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Well, it's just as I'd kinda predicted. The folks starting with sidewinder and immediately following have already responded, and I imagine I'll hear from Nate in the next few days (I have no reason to believe he won't respond, since he's still around and active). Realistically, I don't expect to hear back from the first four, since none of them have posted anything since June. I figured once sidewinder did his BFT, we'd be back in business. Will keep everyone informed, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Good. Now if some of the former regular participants join in and spark some discussion, a great Organissimo tradition will endure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) I'll certainly be back to normal when my next BFT is due. Will listen to all, but cannot guarantee I will have the time to post on them. Excellent job, Al - you're really BIG! :tup Edited October 17, 2008 by mikeweil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Alright, a new Master List has been posted, and I'm gonna ask Jim to lock this thread and pin the new thread. Thanks for continuing to participate, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
