I agree, at least 2 weeks is a good time space for FAs to be up. Besides, they will always be in the archive for others to read after they are down.

I might start writing mine now, I'm very excited about this one

[QUOTE=Drop The Baby]ah you bastard i was gonna do that at some point, although i didn't want to commit myself too early :p[/QUOTE]
You could help me.....because i dont know much about them.

Yeah ok, a joint effort :)

I'm not sure if i like this new way of doing it, i mean it's good lot's are being done but for some reason it doesn't seem right :-/

This is how it was done in the first place, and worked smoothly until Joel unstickied it and the thread kind of disappeared. Everyone's FA was up for a fair amount of time, and newcomers could see which ones were already done/being done by someone else.

The current system is pretty much random, and that means that there is no set time for when an FA will be kept up. Sometimes there can be a month's gap between one and the next, and then there's a week's gap before 3 more people say "Oh, I want to make one too!".

I guess, people seemed more pressured (not sure it that's the right word) to do one, if you get me ?

Looking back some of the old FA's were really poor tbh.

I don't understand how people can be pressured into doing something they volunteered to do in the first place. If people say they are going to do the FA, and end up slacking on it and not getting it in on time, then they shouldn't have said they would do it in the first place.

Not to mention the risk two people do one on the same artist. No one had to announce they were doing one, much less on which band. I think this is getting more participation because people can plan to do theirs a few months ahead of time. The other way you had until the next one was up, which could be a month, or a few days. This is much better I think.

Woo *h5*

Er, Vince:

As I was telling you on MSN, I don't think anything I write should take precedence over the regulars here. I don't feel all that comfortable being on a "first come, first serve" basis when I'm writing in a forum I don't actively post in.

I mean, it's your call, but I don't think I should appear [i]this[/i] early.

Stop you whineing Jom and do it :p

We're a lovly forum, non of us care who does them amd when...

You're a respected member here, and as long as the FA is decent and quality, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to post just because you got in early. I don't see a better system to do this without choosing certain members over others, which would undoubtedly cause controversy

I can't be bothered to wait till January, mind you, i probably won't have done it by then. Just about right there i see.

Can i post my FA today as i'm busy tomorow ?

Yes

Ok, it will be up quite soon.

4 Star PunX !

I'll do an FA, please. Although someone has to decide if I should do Craig's Brother or Inspection 12.

I've only heard of Craig's Brother, but heard neither.

I wonder if Tjebby has finished his FA

I think probably, he gave me a draft a week or two ago. I haven't seen a final draft yet though so I can't say for sure.

I haven't touched it yet. I prolly will Wed. or Thursday. I'll try and get that stuff edited in.

Bummmer, i thought i was doing Relient K and went and made effort to find sources, and now i see i'm doing Anberlin.
Oh well.

Well then change it to Relient K? No one else has taken it

I'll do both, can you put me down for Relient K please after whoever's last.
Thanks.

Ps. Kif, i just started writing some Anberlin aswell, so i can do two right.

Yeah, you can do as many as you want. Which do you want to do first?

Is there any way of making this a weekly deal as opposed to a bi-weekly one? Because seriously, I could have my FA done in a matter of days, but this has me scheduled for the middle of next year. :(

Anberlin please.

Take out my FA and move everyone up a week, please.

We discussed it and decided against it because in reality, the chances of finding 52 FAs in the next year are far lower than 26. It just doesn't seem feasible nor efficient to have them done weekly.

Jom: Done.

I could make 5 or 10 of them before New Years :) Promise.
