Welcome to Timeline Contest Two.
First off, let me once more congratulate our winner of Timeline Contest One, Jasen777!
And what Jasen777 doesn't know, is that as winner of Timeline Contest One, he gets to choose the POD for Timeline Contest Two!
Now then, everyone feel free to let Jasen777 know here your ideas for a POD, but it will be Jasen's decision as our winner.
As to rules....
I think that we ought to set weekly milestones for posting sections of the timeline. For example, in retrospect I would have recommended posting a decade's worth of events every, say, Monday until we were up to the present. That would have been six weeks of posts.
The idea there would be that that would keep people interested and give them smaller deadlines, rather than being overwhelmed by a large timeline due at the end of a distant date.
I also think that we should loosen up the format a bit. People should be allowed to post their weekly update in whatever format they see fit, so long as it covers the timeperiod set for the timeline (a decade, a century, whatever makes sense for the POD).
Maps, flags, and other visuals are optional, of course.
So first, we need Jasen777 to choose our POD.....
