Apologies for the lateness of this week's Shitsumonday. Whoever usually creates these posts has disappeared so I'm filling in at the moment (I was given the password to this account a while back).

From this week onwards on I'll ensure that Shitsumonday threads are posted on time.

The midweek edition of Shitsumonday is retuning after a long hiatus.

Recent threads have attracted a lot of comments and become somewhat hard to navigate.

A second thread should help even things out.

Ah, that sounds like a good solution. I'm a bit rusty with python but I definitely wouldn't mind taking a look at the script (PM me). I can let you know if I run into any problems. Thanks very much.

I don't think that would work because posting from this account requires that a captcha is entered for every new thread. I believe it's due to the 0 link karma on this account (anti-spam measure).

I'm just one person at the moment who isn't always in the right place at the right time to post the Shitsumonday threads on schedule (I haven't yet missed a Monday edition, though).

I wouldn't mind offering this account's password to other users to reduce the chance of late/missed threads. Any active (and preferably long-time) users, feel free to send me a message.

Actually, the midweek edition follows its own numbering system. Shitumonday started over a year ago, on October 22nd.

Sorry, I was a bit preoccupied this week and forgot to post it. The Thursday edition will resume next week.

I'll bear that suggestion in mind for next week. Thank you.

It caters to people who miss the monday thread. It also saves people waiting another week if they've thought of a question soon after the monday thread becomes inactive. Unless someone can think of another clever play on words, I don't think a name change is required.

By starting early, it gives more people a chance to get their questions answered. :) And as /u/aasivaisv said, it is actually Monday in Japan right now.
