I agree with that, as well, iflit.
Is Master around? Perhaps today can be used to catch up on his questions - or maybe a free day to ask questions of past honorees that you wished you could?
or you wish you had been around to answer...
My two cents ... this is Craig's call and he's apparently not here today. There aren't guidelines to cover such situations and that's a matter for him to decide/correct/create. I suggest we continue to honor Elphaba and let Craig decide how to rectify the situation upon his return.

That's right - DD missed almost all of his, so he can catch us up!
Congrats, Elphaba! Have a great day!

With the thought of maintaining the integrity of Craig's creation, SOMMS is probably right. And there's also Cookie's thought that all the good thoughts may be of comfort if he gets to check in at some point later.
In any event, Elphaba is a wonderful man, and it's obvious that many good thoughts and prayers are with him today and every day.
I'm clearing a special table for you in the ultimate library, Elph.
Until we decide how we are going to proceed with today's celebrity, I'd like to congratualte our current MBCotD.
Elphaba, you are a wonderful man that is truly deserving of this honor. We've only chatted briefly, so I'm definitely looking forward to learning more about you once you feel up to it. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your partner.
whatever craig decides is ok with me, I'll PM my successor just in case he wants to continue which is not a problem at all. You have all made us both feel a bit better,
thanks,
Scott

Well, whatever is decided, I wanted to give my 2c hurrah for Elphaba! Well-travelled, well-spoken, never holds back his opinions on the BWW Idol contestants (at least not to me!) and has compassion for toads. What a guy!
My thoughts are with you this weekend!
So what ARE we going to do about this predicament?
Iflit,
I didn't mean to "take away" Elphaba's Day. That would be cruel. I just thought maybe TODAY and maybe THIS WEEKEND weren't good times...as we all agree. Sorry if I didn't communicate that clearly.
Anyway, it's not a big deal. I'll go along with whatever is decided.
Sorry.. I have been on very tight deadlines all day today.
Here's what we're going to do. Elphaba has named the successor. I will post that persons name later tonight. I feel we should still honor Elphaba today as planned. Earlier than normal, the new MBCotD will be named and that person will reign for the weekend. Here's where it gets screwy.
Monday, there will be a new celeb chosen by the person who Elphaba named HOWEVER - that person will not begin their reign until Tuesday. Elphaba will be our celeb on Monday. Whoever Elphaba has chosen (only I know who) will not reveal their choice until Tuesday morning.
So.. in short
Friday though Monday Morning - Celeb (XX) is the person who I already have a name for given to me by Elphaba
Monday Morning - Tuesday Morning - Elphaba
Tuesday Morning - the person who XX has named (but will be a secret until they post on Tues Morning
Got it?

*applause*
So we have today off?
Absolutely not - we are still honoring Elphaba as best as we/he can today. Here at BWW, we never stop celebrating!
All hail our fearless leader!
Yay, Craig!
Hooray, two days of celebration for Elphaba!
I suppose I won't post any questions until Monday. No point to overwhelm the guy!
So instead I'll just say he's fab, he's funny, he's astute and he's always got an opinion (which I usually agree with).
Great choice!
That's great, Craig.
And Elphaba - my thoughts are with you. Best wishes for the next few days.
Ok, now that I know the plan-Congrats, Elphaba! I'll ask questions on Monday!
I'll leave the questions for Monday and just have a good 'ole celebration and unwinding for Elph.
Go Ducks!
Elphaba deserves an endless celebration.
He is not only one of the most intersting and intelligent people I have ever had the luck of getting to know, but one of the kindest and most thoughtful as well.
I hope these next days are filled with joyful memories for you and Steve.
I feel like a Wicklyn when I say with great gusto
ELPHABA RULES.
