Next week 💕 looking for a few volunteers

Marjo — Wed, 05 Feb 2020 18:03:34 GMT

Hi guys,

Happy Wednesday!

Quick question for you guys - hands up if you'd like to help us with something in the next few days and over next week (Monday-Sunday) here on the Off Topic board?

So basically we're looking for people to help us with some topics for a week of special content/theme (think of our Advent Calendar for example towards the end of 2019) starting from Monday 10th and finishing Sunday 16th Feb.

Who's interested? Please let us know in this topic or via PM if you'd like to help out and for which date(s), and we'll elaborate more via PM!

Here's what we're looking to organise together with you:

Monday: need 1 member to collaborate with myself or @Martin-O2 on an intro topic opening the week, plus drafting/posting a relevant discussion
Tuesday: forum game, already scheduled!
Wednesday: looking for 1 member to help with drafting/posting a discussion topic (plus, on this same day, @Mi-Amigo has kindly said yes to "adapting" his regular quiz to the specific theme of the week!)
Thursday: forum game, already scheduled
Friday: looking for 1 member to help with draftin/posting a discussion topic
Saturday: looking for 1 member to help with drafting/posting a discussion topic
Sunday: looking for 1 member to help with drafting/posting a discussion topic

So that's 5 members we're looking for to help with some topic creation.

We're hoping for this to be a fun little activity for everyone either creating or participating (or both) and having a nice time in off topic! You've noticed I'm trying to keep the mystery going on what the actual theme is, however it might not be that difficult to guess based on the timing. Whoever is kind enough to volunteer to help us with the content, we'll of course discuss the details via PM and work together to prepare everything.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Apparently I don't have a romantic bone in my body, so put me on the subs bench if you get really desperate

Ok, noted @MI5 cheers although I'm sure we could come up with something together that would create some nice discussion next week!

I can help.
Although I lean more to @Anonymous's direction than the other way I do try to be nice.
Sometimes.
If they deserve it.

Looking forward to this. (As long as I'm not the one you expect to be sweetness, light and all slushy @Marjo )
