Dailies! (Read 57 times)

    I've been looking for a while, and haven't any answers.

     

    Why are there always two daily threads over here? I see people posting in both and there seems to be lots of duplication.

     

    i don't know where to post!!!!! i am so confused! Is there some secret handshake I need to know?

      There are two:

       

      Regular dailies - Everybody can post

      Penguins - Everybody can post but most of the penguins (slower or beginner runners) post there

       

      Most of us post in both.

       

      Feel free to post on either or both.  Welcome!

        Take a poke around and jump on in to either, I say!

         

        Yes, there is a secret handshake, but we don't teach you that until you have passed the hazing.  And PGDave will be in touch about your photoshoot for the club pages.

              If everyone is double posting, why not just combine the two?

               

              How do I know if I'm a penguin? I think I resemble am emu more than a penguin.

               

              mta: I have this thing about posting pictures of myself on the intrawebs. I don't do it (pictorial evidence is a no-no in my line of work). I'll have to pass on the photoshoot.

                Emu's are MUCH faster than a penguin, I would hate to be face to face with an Emu and no protection.

                I think it's a matter of indecision......... or just because it's fun this way Cool

                  Probably a good call. lol

                   

                  I only post in the main dailies, but mostly because I can barely keep up with the personals there!  I don't know if I could follow more than one.  But do whatever you want - hey, if you want to start an emu dailies group, have at it.  I bet there are some of us who would relate to a flightless bird.  :P

                    the explanation is in the penguin introduction (first post) on the dailies.

                     

                    People have talked about combining them but most of us like it the way it is.  Some forumites do not feel comfortable posting on the dailies and like their little niche of penguins. Some of us never leave the Penguin thread even if we don't consider ourselves beginners or penguins.

                      I have my own super secret dailies thread that I post to.  I'm still looking for someone worthy of allowing into my daily thread.  My search continues.

                        Is there an application process which I could start?

                        So long as I don't have to post "selfies", I may be a quality candidate.
