Erm, who's "Laura" on the list of acceptances? Because we're supposed to put our SW handles in our reply and they didn't.

i'm guessing it's one of these 3:
la429
loveandluxury
iambonbon
because those are the only people who requested a PM whos names i can't find on the list. so, they either have not signed up yet, or are signed up under a different name.

Damn, I would so do this, but I'm going to be in the middle of nowhere most of October so shopping would be kinda hard. :( Boo.

I made my wishlist. Just mostly books, and most are less than a dollar, so I hope I get spoiled! :D But I didn't know what else to wish for, so maybe somebody will get creative as well.

You will get your name Sept 19th, I believe, so you could also do it in Sept :)

this is correct, but that would force her to kind of rush things, which is probably stressful.
don't get me wrong, i'd love for her to be in the exchange, i'm just sayin' :)

^^^Yup, it's her choice. I just thought I would point out the possibility.

^you probably could, but it'd be expensive and time consuming. :P you'd have to get one of those cooler-shipping packages.

^ What do you think? If I play by the regular rules, where I gift one person only, do you think it will cause too much drama?
I swear I'll feed the Drama Llama a few tabs of LSD to keep him far, far away.

-i- don't care, but i don't want to speak on anyone else's behalf. so i'm just going to say this:
if anyone currently signed up has a problem with TOO signing up, PM me. i can promise you 100% (for whatever my word is worth) that only -i- will know who objected.
that way we can keep it out of the thread and stop it from getting personal.
if no one objects before the deadline, i will send TOO the sign up link.
fair?
*note ... for those of you who requested "no males" (which were only a few of you) that will still apply. so don't worry about it. i have you all written down. :)

Just be a good boy and it should be okay. I dunno, up to Penny though.
Pretty_Penny
09-15-2008, 07:59 PM
^i already said, i personally see no problem with it. i just don't want someone to be all "i thought he wasn't doing them anymore when i signed up" or something.
i doubt that will happen, just sayin.

^ It seems like the site is almost drama-free these days, so given this much-improved environment -- which is a LOT more pleasant today compared to the level of madness and insanity flying around when I pulled out originally in order to lower the drama level -- I figure we should be in very good shape.
Also, I miss exotic multicolored hand-painted wrapping paper. Please have mercy on my soul. ;D

I couldn't seem to find much for my wishlist Halloween themed, so I picked general horror/supernatural themed. I hope that's OK.

Pretty_Penny
09-16-2008, 12:02 PM
for the record:
TOO will not be participating in the exchange.
also, i want to state again that i want this exchange to be a fun and positive experience. so, please consider signing up and if you already have.. please have a good time with it.
this is meant to be about getting to know each other and exchanging fun halloween gifts. not to sound like a cheeseball, but i've been looking forward to it. this is my favorite time of year and i really like seeing other people enjoying it as well.
that's all.

Yes please play!
I love it when you start taking about all the wrapping paper, and tiny boxes and all that fun stuff. Honestly it's as much fun to give the gifts as it is to receive them.
Pretty_Penny
09-16-2008, 06:50 PM
TOO will not be part of the exchange (i know you saw. i'm just saying it again in case someone skips around)
and, this isn't directed at anyone personally, but please stop asking me to set you up to draw a specific person. i've been asked a few times now and i'm not doing it for anyone. it's not fair and it's not the point.
