The Making of the September Super Hearts Treasury

The treasury went together fairly quickly this time. I simply went through the Treasured Treasuries thread until I found all the honest players who had also commented on the July Super Hearts Treasury. I ended up with one slot left. Just when I thought I’d have to start digging through the Post 1 Favor the 50 Above thread, I got a recommendation from Sandra, our fearless leader.

It seems that while I was gone, Nancy of Phenomenal Women Shop has been making a ton of team treasuries. Thank you Nancy. I’m particularly glad to give her the first slot because I’ve seen her playing in the other treasury games many times and know she is someone I can rely on.

In fact, knowing that her store could use a little boost and that she herself has often supported others, I’ve decided to make her this month’s featured shop.

I have a couple of others from this and previous treasuries who I think would be good featured shops for next month. I can never make up my mind which is more deserving. So I’m going to set up a pole and let our team members decide. I’ll let you know more about that later.

Now to the nitty gritty of the rest of the treasury. All the top slots went to people who did more. Either they played fair many times in the Treasured Treasuries thread, or they went above and beyond.

Sharon Lee of Garboge Knits ended up in the middle because I’ve featured her so many times. She ends up on the bottom just because I keep putting her in. No fault of hers. She’s always been very fair and a regular player. The more I see of her, the more impressed I am.

The rest started off alphabetical, then got moved around to suit my sense of aesthetics.

There were a couple of people that I really wanted to include this time that I passed over because of niggling little details. For instance, one person consistently only commented on four of the five treasuries ahead of him.

I’m not such a stickler that there is no room for mistakes. If someone comments on and supports four of the treasuries ahead of theirs, I will check them again in another part of the thread to see if they got everyone. If so, I’ll include them. But not if it looks like a bad habit.
