NC Holiday Card Exchange 2012!
Posted: 02 Nov 2012 09:37 pm
So this year on NC may have been a bit quiet, but I'm going to assume there's still interest in our annual card exchange :D It's also our FIFTH year doing it, which is just awesome! So with that being said -- Welcome to the 2012 Card Exchange!
For those of you that don't know - or simply haven't participated before! - every year a few of us NCers run a Holiday card exchange where we ship out cards to everyone who wants to participate. It's a LOT of fun and we always get cards from all over the world - you are allowed to participate regardless of where you live!
The rules are simple, so here it goes!
1) You will receive a list of every participant to send a card to (it's not like a Secret Santa where you get one person). Please remember, however, that these people are trusting you with their real names and addresses - please do NOT do anything stupid with this list!
2) Please do not sign up for the card exchange if you don't intend to follow through. It'd be really unfair if you get 30 cards from people but don't send out any yourself.
3) Because sending out addresses to people is Serious Business, you must have 100 non-spam posts in a variety of forums (so not just the Subeta new colors forum, or something - basically, we want everyone to know you) and you must have been a member of Neocolours for at least six months. I know these seem strict, but like I said - addresses. We want it to be a little strict.
To participate:
Please copy and paste the following into a PM for me and fill it out with the appropriate information:
I've cleaned out my PM box in anticipation of participants!
Special Instructions can include things like if you need the cards mailed by a certain date to reach you or anything like that. In the past it's been used to include if you don't want a religious card, but in the past I don't think anyone here has gotten a very religious card... so I assume it's not a problem. Feel free to note it if you want, however, or anything else!
Signups will end on December 1st, unless I hear otherwise that this is too late and we should extend it! People from oversees, please let me know.
I think that's about it! If you have any questions, post here. Or PM me. Or whatever, most of you know how to hunt me down in some way xD
Also, feel free to post on the the thread if you're going to be joining, or for general discussion! We usually hang out here to discuss the cards we get anyway.
