Week 1 Points Post

[dodificus]

So, this is the post where you check in with how you're doing so far and how many points you've accumulated and I get to gush all over you like the fool that I am:)

Personally, I've actually found doing postcard feedback much easier than I thought it would be, how about you guys?

I haven't been able to go all-out like I would have liked to, but this has definitely encouraged me to leave a few notes I might not have :)

[idella]

*cheers you on*

I have been leaving more feedback than I might have otherwise as well :)

[dodificus]

There's still another week to go craaaazzzy:D

Yeah, I totally agree about the postcards. I thought it might be a bit awkward, but actually it was fun. (hopefully if you receive a postcard from me you'll think it's fun and not awkward too, haha)

[idella]

\o/\o/\o/

[originally_dw]

\o/ Woo, cheerleaders for all.

[dodificus]

Yeah, I found it easier to ramble on, maybe because they're the only one that can see my inarticulateness:D

ETA: Also, omg 114 points:O

[idella]

98 points!

I am trying to leave at least two pieces of feedback a day: one for something I listened to before the challenge and one for something I listened to during. I didn't leave any feedback yesterday but other than that I have been achieving this goal. \o/

WHAT ABOUT YOU DODIE.

P.S. That is awesome about the postcards! \o/

[dodificus]

That's actually a really good goal.

And I'm really going to have to pull my finger out, I'm only at 60. YOU SHALL NOT WINNNNNNNNNN.

*cough*

Good luck to you in your endeavours, kind sir.

[idella]

I'm sorry I couldn't respond to your kind words of encouragement sooner BUT I HAVE BEEN TERRIBLY TERRIBLY BUSY LEAVING ALLLLLLLLLLLLL THE FEEDBACK.

Too bad I am just really behind with everything.

Good luck to you as well :DDD

[fire_juggler]

610 points! Ummm... I listen to a lot of podfic? And POSTCARDS!

[originally_dw]

That's super impressive!

[fire_juggler]

LOL. Well, I did write a lot of postcards, so that accounts for most of it :D

[cathexys]

Wow. That's pretty damn amazing! Go you :)

[fire_juggler]

:) Thanks. It is a stark contrast to my usual feedbacking, which is... um... a lot of... *crickets*

[dodificus]

Fuuuuck. You've just set the new record<3

[fire_juggler]

I got a little carried away with the postcards? /o\ But I'm loving the challenge! It came at the BEST time because I just implemented the New System. And now I get to frantically refine The System. ♥

[dodificus]

Seriously. Considering how stressed commenting makes you, this is *so* impressive. I have all the respect for you right now. And you have made me kick into high gear for the second week.

[idella]

This comment needs a 'love' button :DDD

[fire_juggler]

I'm just hoping all the postcards arrive and that people can read my TERRIBLE handwriting /o\

[tinypinkmouse]

162 points, but I haven't sent most of the postcards I've written yet, so I haven't counted those.

Writing the postcards felt a bit strange at first, and there's not enough room! Hopefully people will be able to read my horrible handwriting. :) Though, writing more than one postcard per person would feel awkward I think.

But this has finally inspired me to leave feedback on some podfics I should have commented on, but never managed because of reasons. So, I'm happy.

[dodificus]

Not enough room is a good problem to have, I feel.

Now I feel like spamming 1 person with hundreds of postcards:D

[cathexys]

59. I've never participated in this, but it was a good kick to get me feedbacking a lot of things I'd been really wanting to...

[dodificus]

There's still another week to go, so keep commenting!

I think it's fun, it's totally no pressure and hopefully the challenges are interesting enough to keep people engaged and motivated. I'm glad you decided to join in this year and are enjoying it!

[cathexys]

Yeah, I am too. And while I usually comment or at least kudo, it gives me the extra push :D

[yue_ix]

10! But there's a few postcards in the works. I just took the slow route with them, ahaha. :3

[dodificus]

Postcards are definitely the money makers this year:D

[yue_ix]

Making those postcards by hand definitively wasn't a good idea if I was aiming for "more general feedback" (which can at least be sent to handfuls of people in a single night) versus "LOOK AT MY FEELS" (a couple at best, overall). Why do you never learn, self? /o\

[dodificus]

omg, you're doing home made ones!? That is AMAZEBALLS.

[yue_ix]

Yeaaah and I was worried that that format would make me make some too similar, but I love drawing while listening to podfics and each reader's voices really influenced their card so I'm pretty happy with them. (Looky, if you want. One's NSFW. But it's exactly the same colours + sheet of paper + character, done one after the other. The sole difference is which podfic I was listening to at the time. Talk about mood shift! :D)

[dodificus]

Jesus, people are going to love the fuck out of those<3

[dodificus]

We meet again, self. I have 60 points so far!

[dodificus]

Wow, you're totally getting your ass kicked, loser.

[dodificus]

YOU DON'T KNOW ME

[fire_juggler]

Thank you for this. You just totally made my night :D

[cathexys]

ROTFL!

Most people use at least socks, but your icons make very clear whether it's dodi or dodi here :D

[dodificus]

I'm pleased:D

[idella]

Excuse me dude but that is my ~worthy opponent you are talking smack about.

[dodificus]

Let's be real, aint neither of you bitches stand a chance next to fire_juggler.

[idella]

IT'S CALLED DENIAL AND I'M VERY HAPPY HERE THANK YOU VERY MUCH.


Although it's a good thing fire_juggler is here to be amazing class up this joint.

[miss_marina95]

I have 20 points right now, with postcards in the works! Yay cool challenge, yay feedback!

[dodificus]

I'm finding it harder to pick out postcards than to write on them:D

[miss_marina95]

I totally just bought a couple from my Uni's bookstore and spent like 10 minutes picking out four, two of which were the same design. *facepalm* I think I'll go buy more! It's super fun :)

[knight_tracer]

Only 27 so far, but hopefully there will be some postcards soon.

[dodificus]

I kind of want to give all my feedback via post card now?
