Is the pinch-hitter list gone? leviticus_lied was working on a long podfic for me in Naruto fandom. She had done the first part and we exchanged quite a few emails and then she just ... disappeared. I can't get a response from her lj account nor her hotmail account. I'm quite worried about her but I would also like the podfic finished. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

And if anyone has talked to her ... please let her know I just want to know she's alright. Thanks!

I meant to post this earlier.  But I wanted to give a huge thanks to all of the Sweet Charity vidders who participated in last year's compilation. Go here for the list and click on the links to view their vids and to leave feedback. A big thank you also to the winning bidders for participating.

Does anyone know where the Default List has gone off the SC website?
It seems to have been taken down for some reason?

Does this mean the Pinch Hits/Defaults are no longer available :O

Sweet Charity Vid projects - because the compilation project will be delayed a few weeks, we'd like to try and include as many vids as possible from the last and final Sweet Charity auction (March 09). If your vid is completed (or close to completion) please contact morgandawn at mdawn6@yahoo.com and I'll give you further details. Thanks

Reminder: The first deadline for the last auction passed yesterday and goodies that haven't been flagged as done have been added to the list. Which has increased it by ~100. I like to think that there haven't been a 100 defaults, so please check THE LIST and if an entry shouldn't be on there let me know :)

Pinch hits are upish.

If you're logged in and go along to http://www.sweet-charity.net/substitutes/list-defaults you'll see the list of those who've been defaulted on. For the next 24 hours, pinch hits cannot be claimed while those on the list take the opportunity to update their notes with what they're after or remove themselves from it if they're listed in error or don't want a pinch hit. Also, if you're not on there and should be let me know!

About this time tomorrow, I'll open up the claiming part and we'll see how we go for a week. After that, I'll open the sign ups for those willing to be pinch hitters that bidders can approach.

It's uncanny, as soon as I give a date I'll have something done the universe mocks me - sorry. We're back to "this month" for the pinch hitters. Which at least is a short period of time and it does give people a chance to check and make sure they should or shouldn't be on the list :)

The pinch-hitter area will be going up this weekend, but we have to do some housekeeping first or people may end up on the list who shouldn't be ( or may not when they should :) ).

I have a LIST (like in the Mikado, but less singing) with those bidders who need pinch hits. I've cleared out a couple I know were actually made good on and no one flagged it, but I'm pretty sure there are others.

So! If you have a couple minutes, please just check THE LIST. If you're not on there and should be, let me know! If you're on there and shouldn't be, let me know! (Or, better, get the bidding code and go flag the goodie as made. If doesn't actually have to have been made to do that - if bidder and tart renegotiated a fifteen year deadline or something that's absolutely okay, just let the site know by going to that link and entering the code and it will remove the goodie from the pinch-hit list.)

I've had an email about this before when people were signing up, so to repeat and just to be sure: If you're on the list but shouldn't be, it's because you or your bidder never flagged the goodie complete so the system thinks you haven't done it. You're not being insulted, I swear ;)

Dear Friend,

Thank you for your contribution to RAINN through the Sweet Charity event! You should all be so proud to know that together, you've raised $14,546.77 to help victims of sexual assault! And because April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, each of your contributions were matched - dollar for dollar, for a grand total of $29,093.54.

Through the combined passion and commitment of everyone involved in the Sweet Charity event, you have covered technology costs for operating the National Sexual Assault Online Hotline for 5 weeks - which will allow RAINN to help over 2,350 victims of sexual assault, at an average of 63 people per day.

Warmly,

Scott Berkowitz

Thank you all so much for your dedication to ending sexual assault. Your generosity has made such a difference for RAINN. You should all feel wonderful knowing how many lives you will touch.

I've sat here for ten minutes trying to find the words, failing that the adjectives. I can't, they're not there. I'm pretty sure the numbers speak for themselves.
