I have spent nearly 40 of the last 48 hours at work. Unfortunately, the issue we are dealing with could go on for quite a bit longer. Right now I am hoping to be done before the fourth of July because it would be nice to see my family on the holiday at least.
I do have an option I can exercise. We have the judgements in from everyone else on Match 3. We could exercise our sideline judge and post those judgements just to keep things moving forward.
Would the contestants support this move? It isn't my preference, but letting the contest become bogged down simply because I have RL work issues doesn't seem fair to everyone writing this excellent fiction. Barring that, I can be quite a bit less thorough and compile some judgements with my sleep deprived mind. I just want the writers to have solid feedback. Whether you win or lose, the feedback is important.
What is everyone else thinking?
