Round 6 Acceptance List Next Week

Written by Scrivs on May 14, 2008

A minor update to let everyone know that next week we will be announcing the list of sites that made it into 9rules for Round 6. Can’t specify the day as of yet, but it will be next week. Till then continue to enjoy the 9rules goodness.

Also as of now we will not tell you the number of submissions because people get caught up in the number and no matter how many sites we let in we are either too exclusive or not exclusive enough, which takes away from the great sites that get accepted.

  1. Mattie Says:

    You know what you should do…have a contest to see if people can guess the number. Screw what people think about how exclusive you are or aren’t…what people think about that particular thing won’t change how you run 9rules.

    Like those old carnival games where you have to guess how many marbles are in the jar…

    Of course, the Price is Right rule is in effect…the closest to guess without going over.

    Just a thought. Keep up the good work.

  2. Brendan Says:

    People always try and have that contest, typically to bide their time till the list is out.

    Personally, I couldn’t give a crap how many/ few made it – for once I agree entirely with Scrivs – it’s what they bring to the brand, content wise that actually matters.

  3. Travis Vocino Says:

    Great, looking forward to it.

  4. Elyse Says:

    Good luck to all those who submitted — I’m excited for new stuff to read!

  5. Eli James Says:

    Wow, guys, that was fast.

  6. Travis Vocino Says:

    By “next week” you meant Monday right? As in, today :)

  7. Tyme White Says:

    @Travis – Um…not quite…it’s coming. :)

    ***anxiously waiting***

    Am I the only person who is checking this blog 3-4 times a day? I guess I should just subscribe to the feed…

    @Shan
    This may be worse: I’m already subscribed to the feed but I still click over to the blog after I see what’s new at 9rules.

  10. Tyme White Says:

    I’m going over the list and checking it twice. :) 95% of the decisions have been made.

    @Shan

    No, lol, your not the only one.

  12. Shan Says:

    Yeah, you were right… subscribing didn’t make any difference.
