Yeah, it's frustrating alright. Real life gets in the way a lot of the time - births, deaths, and general unexpected things - but we usually get an indication in advance that there won't be a recipe. In instances like this, where there's no apparent reason for no recipe - the poster thanked the original schedule post and has gotten two PMs - it makes me feel like I'm wasting my time putting so much effort in. But then I see the enjoyment gotten from the recipes that are posted, and it reminds me why I do it

Well the fact that the poster is still posting, and hasn't had the decency to reply to your PM's is incredibly frustrating. Especially when there are people really to stand in if someone cant do their week! Hopefully sending reminders in advance will be a huge help Faith. And for what it's worth... There is still a huge amount of us that appreciate the hard work and effort you put in 0

That's an idea, but it would be difficult to implement. There are things we could do - eg. have everyone post their recipes in the first couple of weeks of the year, and delete them all until the relevant week when we'd undelete them - but it's all a LOT of work.
I do want to add - it's possible this week's poster has only been online via the mobile site. I don't get notifications of PMs when I'm browsing by mobile, so they might not have received the reminders. However, there's nothing else we can do either way.
We've never even specified that a recipe has to be an original. There's nothing to stop someone posting a recipe they found online, or that's from a celebrity chef. All we ask is that it's a tried-and-tested recipe that the poster enjoyed and thinks others will enjoy. 0 -

We normally have stand-ins, but we can only call on them with sufficient notice. We still haven't heard from this week's poster. I was giving him/her the benefit of the doubt for a while, but then it just became too late IMO. It's actually a lot of work trying to arrange a stand-in.
That said, if anyone wants to pop up a recipe, feel free. 0 -

. Will I leave it as it is, or would you prefer it changed back to Mondays?
