Greetings Friends! Round 89 has come to a close, and now is the time to share the fruits of your labour. Did you write words? Did you stitch stitches? Did you discover a secret tunnel full of plot devices? Please tell us in the comments!

And, as always please thank your mods:
Pinstriped Fish Defender, who single-handedly held down the first 9 hours and is by far the Champion Usurper this round!
Best-Led Mouse
Supreme Tea Temptress
WerebunniesBane and
Her Tipsiness

So, let's not let a hurricane stop the 'rush!

juliet316

With the Hurricane Florence due to make a major impact on the East Coast this weekend (and I'm one of those on it's path), I wanted to know if everybody still wanted to go ahead with Round 89 this weekend or postpone until a later date?

juliet316

So the clear winner of the run-off poll is September 14th - 16th.

Who thinks they will be around that weekend and who's up for a bit of mass usurpation during that round?

juliet316

Since there's a tie between two of the weekends (and one of them being this weekend), I'm going to make a run-off poll between the two weekends.

I don't know about you, but I feel like that round Rushed by. As always, tell us what you managed to get done this round, and thank your tireless mods, who pulled extraordinary shifts this round:

Pinstriped Fish Defender, who tied with me for this month's Champion Usurper! *breaks the tiara Mean Girls-style*
Supreme Tea Temptress
Bringer of Penguins
WerebunniesBane
and a special mod welcome to Kalloway, who gave Juliet and I a strong run for our money in the Usurpation Championships! Please select your Pretentious Mod Title! Edit: Welcome to the Mod Squad, Neon Sparkle Ninja!

The round has now started. Head over here for a glowstick and (hopefully) inspiration.

So it seems like the clear winner in the poll for Round 87 is to have the round this coming weekend (July 20th - 22nd). Do we want to try anchor hours or do we want a full - out Ursurpationpalozza?

Also, who's available to participate in the round/be a ursuprer this weekend?

juliet316

Here are some weekend options for Round 87...

Hey Y'all!

So I'm sure many of y'all are also wondering when we're having the next Rush. I don't have polling authority (or even know how they work), but if it please the Queen I figured we could at least come to a consensus about what month to have the next Rush in, and if we can isolate a weekend even better. SO: let's have a chat! Do you think we should have one this month? Wait til August? Dust off the time machine and have done one in June? Some other fourth thing?

xandromedovna

We did it!

I for one had a lovely time. How did the Rush treat you?

As always, please thank your mods:

Queen Mod
WerebunniesBane *cough* this month's Champion Usurper *cough*
Rainbow Fairy Godpenguin
Pinstriped Fish Defender
Her Tipsiness
Bringer of Penguins
Slayer of Alien Fish and
Best-Led Mouse

Mods if you have selected a Pretentious Title, lemme know and I'll edit the post :D Edit: Hahaha, I am not fooled! Though he has shaved off his beard and dons a disguise, my eyes do not lie! For it is he, the same penniless sitar player! (sorry about that lol)

Let the celebration commence!

lolmac

Hurry over and join us on the 48 comm! We miss you already!

lolmac

Round 86 will be May 26th and 27th.

Who's interested in modding? Anyone need posting access who doesn't already have it?

Who wants to call dibs on anchor posts? See this post from the last round for details.

lolmac

Remember: you don't have to be a member of either comm to vote in the polls, but you do need a Dreamwidth account. Also, whoop! The third option should be "May 19th and 20th". DW does not allow me to edit polls once posted.
