SOS lives!

Published by Brillig at 12:01 am under Blogginess

5% of you told me to dump it already. You are probably the five percent who didn’t comment, because you didn’t want me to know that it was you. Hahaha. No offense taken, friends. I honestly wanted to know what people thought.

20% said you really didn’t care either way. (Which, by the way, I take as a negative vote… I mean, if you don’t care, then what’s the point?)

The other 75% of you asked me to keep it alive. Some of you sent me emails PLEADING with me not to do away with it. Others of you gave suggestions on the frequency or perhaps a hiatus until my feet hit the ground again. Many have offered to host in my absence or to help in any other way. Most of you, though, said you like reading the soapy links, even though you have no real intentions of playing along. And that’s okay too.

I guess the people have spoken, and the verdict is that SOS will remain a part of the Brillig/Kateastrophe repertoire. Now, Kate and I need to have a pow-wow to discuss possible changes in rules, frequency, and other stuff. For the time being, though, SOS lives on as is. The current rules are here, and we’d love for you to join us. Also, remember the option of posting at the Anonymous Soapiness site, where you can send me or Kate your submissions and we’ll leave your name off—so that you can divulge your soapiness, without your sister reading that it was you who stole her boyfriend. Or whatever.

So, you know the drill. If you’re playing this week, enter your link here. Oh! And MANY apologies to Goofball, who played last week and was never linked to. Sorry darlin’. I’ve entered your link from last week here first, so that no one misses it. :-D And I’ll be playing along too—tomorrow. (I know, Soap Opera Sunday on SUNDAY? What has the world come to?)

    Well, THANK YOU (and thanks to Kate) for bowing to the weight of public opinion! I’m relieved.

    I’m really glad you’re keeping this going, even if I haven’t been active in the past couple of months. I think it’s a wonderful project - as I said, I just wasn’t doing as well with the frequency for my own posts.

    My saga goes on (and on, and on, and on) and whenever you want to pow-wow I’m here for you! (Not like you have a ton going on or anything. Sheesh.)

    I’m a big fan of SOS, so I’m so glad you’re not scrapping it. I admit, though, I feel a bit guilty for enjoying all the soapiness without contributing. I just don’t think I have very soapy tails to tell. Well, there is one… what the heck, maybe I’ll try it out. Although, the one that would be best will take some time to compile… so I’ll try a lesser one first.
