Aft th' A t' Z challenge 2018 went t' Davy Jones' Locker, thar was a loot map written by th' captains 'n filled in by th' crew.


Break out th' booty! 'tis a week o' long posts!



16. In the past, sign ups opened in January. In 2018, sign ups for the "April blogging from A to Z Challenge" opened in March. What is your preference?

Ahoy, me mateys! MARCH be where X marks th' spot.

17. Theme Reveal 2018!

Fav'rit answers in th' loot chest were:
  • I LOVE the theme reveal!
  • I added my Theme Reveal link to the official Theme Reveal Google Form.
  • I added my Theme Reveal link to Twitter and used the hashtag #AtoZChallenge .
  • I added my Theme Reveal link to my own Facebook profile and/or page.
  • I visited blogs using the Theme Reveal spreadsheet.
  • There's a space to mention a blog's theme on the Master List, but I still like the Theme Reveal as well.
  • I missed my chance to take part in the theme reveal (write in answer).


18. Please mark your choices about the Master list.

Most scallywags didn' care. O' those who did, th' majority said:
"I feel the Master List should stay open for ONE WEEK after the challenge starts, and those who wish to copy the list can do so whenever."

19. Please mark your choices about the Daily lists.

Winnin' by double th' amount be:
"I feel the Daily Letter sign-ups should CLOSE after 48 hours, as they did this year."

20. Which are nearest to your opinions and feelings?

Th' top answers be:
  • I love the Master List and USED it.
  • I love the Daily Letter lists and USED them.
  • I'm glad that Google was able to provide a free option that kept this blog hop alive. Keep using it.

Also worth noting, 23 people didn't know that the April Blogging from A to Z Challenge and the Blogchatter challenge weren't run by the same people, and therefore were two different events.

Almost half of you ONLY visited the main blog site.
30% never realized there were two different sites until reading the question. (The backup being on Wordpress.)
18% MOSTLY visited the Main blog site, but also visited the backup.
