You're gonna get there. Don't worry about the numbers. Just do what you do. We'll help you cross the finish line :)
Fantastic job @karenmckersie! It's great to see someone conquer a goal set for their self. Do you think it helped with your writing and overall Steemit experience by keeping the three C's in mind? Don't worry, you can be truthful! @merej99 is only really organized and detail oriented with the slight possibility of having a side gig as an international assassin.
haha that is so funny @lexicon082 ! Thanks ! But your not supposed to tell everyone about @merej99 aka Meridiths secret side gig !! Ssssshhh ! LOL ! Best of luck to you ! This challenge has been an eye opening experience for sure . Steem on my friend !😂😂😂👍👍👍
Dammit, Frank! Now I need a new costume.
I swear if you make an assassin costume I may literally die from laughter. "Hey, Jeremy can I borrow some of your camo face paint"?
Hehehe... He'll be here for a couple days. I don't think he'll be up for doing a video but we might have some candid photos of our warrior faces. LOL
Cosplay is COOL. :D
Bwahahaha ! Its all his fault !! 😂😂😂
Hello @karenmckersie ! Thank you for the wishes dear and big congratulations to you for the achievement! It is really a wonderful challenge to participate in! It has made me meet and engage so many new amazing people out there!

Congrats @karenmckersie, Way to conquer the challenge! I should be able to cross the finish line by tonight just with my usually daily interactions now. This has been such a unique and interactive challenge indeed thank to Meredith.

Thank you. It's amazing actually. At first you think 500, whoa, but this makes you aware that you may actually write 50-75 comments/replies in a day and not even realize it. Meredith did a great thing with this challenge. I know it's a ton of work, but I hope she does it again in the future for the next batch of Steemians.

For sure, ok catch ya later.
bye for now , thanks !😴😴😴
That's the plan once this graduation ceremony craziness melts away :) If this is any indication of participation, I may need to lasso some volunteers. lol
Since it looks like I will be in the winner's pool this time, next time around I will donate back a bit more and not enter to "win", but just enter to show support of the challenge and the fun of it.
Oh, a donation would be fantastic but it's not necessary to recuse yourself from the next challenge. It's not an easy thing and I want to keep it open to everyone from minnows to whales. No exclusions.
that's awesome !! I would love to see some whales participating !! 🐳🐋🐳🐋🐳🐋
"daily interactions" makes my heart sing. <3
I had a tiara but Audrey gave me "the look."
Hahaha !! You deserve a tiara @merej99 !! Or since your such a Wonder Woman how about a golden lasso !?!? Or some cool bracelets !!! Your our hero !!! Woot ! 👑👑👑👑
Have I mentioned how much I love FaceInHole.com? LOL
OMG ! Bwahahhaha ! I almost peed myself @merej99 !!!! I have not heard of this place but I 💙 love it !!! you look fabulous by the way !!! I always loved Wonder Woman , you must be her better sister , saving steemit , one steemian at a time ! hahaha 😂😂😂👍👍👍💙💙💙
I've used Face In Hole for holiday cards. It's a blast. LOL Have fun with it!
oh I will for sure haha !! As soon as I get a chance I will be checking it out ! LOL thanks !😂😂😂👍👍👍
Clarification of the rules, please...
So, is it OK to submit one or more articles, allocated to future days, in advance of your publishing the Daily Diary?
Thanks.
Hey @creatr
Um... I was a little bit confused by your question but I'm going to try and answer anyway.
When I posted THE BEAST I hadn't expected anyone to join so quickly (and I forgot about time zones) which is why there was the potential to actually have 11 posts if you participated every day.
ALSO - While I did recommend only posting to your blog one or two times a day to concentrate on topic and format, the limit is sharing only one post for this challenge per day. Ideally, the exercise is to post something at least once a day for consistency.
What was not explicitly stated was the 12-hour "forgiveness" If you wrote two within one day you may use the second one the following day. But I do ask, using honor code, that it's not older than 12 hours.
I hope that answered your question :)
I think this long sentence has finally explained the 12 hour rule better.. Was confused before @merej99
Oh good @dean-mno
I'm also trying to accommodate the different time zones so there might be a bit of fudge room. The way it's going, we're either going to see a lot of people crossing the finish line early with a day to spare or they're going to squeak through by the hairs of their chin. :D Drop me your link @dean-mno. You're only 2 posts away from the minimum in that regard :)
Would do that in the next hour.. Fine tuning... @merej99
Yes, that clears it up for me, Thanks! ;)
Sorry if the question was not clear...
LOL - it may have been a combination of sleep deprivation and being distracted. (Hubby has the day off and the man loves to talk.) hahaaa
And talk is code for.......
......back scratchies?
I WISH! LOL
The man really talks... and talks and talks until my eyes glaze over. Thank goodness he's napping. hahahaaa
lol...look who's talkin' now...you must be over 3K comments all together within the confines of this challenge...oh wait...you're not actually doing the challenge are you?
ah.... hmm... you made me look. After this comment I will have posted 898 comments. How crazy is that?!? lol
It goes against my fabric to participate in my own challenge. :D I've only got my name on the spreadsheet to track my numbers.
Excellent challenge dear friend @ merej99, thank you very much for what you do daily for this wonderful project.
Congratulations to all who reach the goals and those who are next.
I wish you all a great day
You're almost at the winner's circle too @jlufer! :)
You've already got over 500 comments. We need a minimum of 2 more posts! YAY!!!
Wow what an amazing journey we are having with this contest! Will try to hit the 500 today! I have been engaging a lot today!
Thank you @merej99
Steem on!
@progressivechef
We can do it :-) just a few more steps from the finish line for us. I should be able to make the goal by tonight. See you soon in the winners' circle.
That's the spirit dear! Let's kick it! See you soon!
Cheers
@progressivechef
And everyone was so worried! I'm beginning to wonder if this challenge was hard enough.
Hmmm what's cooking more!? I'm smelling something!!!!
quite possibly end of August or September...once the home life settles down into some normalcy again :)
Will surely look forward to enter again dear! Well i feel you will make something very creative again!
I must be putting these in the wrong place, as Thursday didn't show up in the spreadsheet. I assume I comment back below my ddschteinn square? I am notorious for commenting to myself...
LOL I think you've got it figured out now! :)
We can always hope ( :
Interesting quest! Will be there the second run for new participants?
I'm definitely hoping to run a second one. Probably end of August or early September :)
I'm really hoping that some of our Steemians will launch one in their native language too. That would be WILD.
Congratulations @karenmckersie! @merej99, I really loved reading these extra announcements for the progress of the different participants! I need to catch up with the comments.
Hopefully it helps with the weekend just about here. Carve out some time where you can. :)
Dear Meredith,
I can assure you that at this moment I feel like one of those football players:
That's right, babe! Inch by inch we get there together.
TEAM WORK. No "I" in team. Oorah!
Great! :)
Great :) Thanks
I love the GIF because I love rollercoasters! ;)
😄😇😄
