Same as last year, today starts the first part of the thread. I will tally up the results for our charity contribution recipient and run a poll for contributing members in the next couple weeks.
This thread will run for six weeks, unless it fizzles.
THE RULES! READ BEFORE YOU PARTICIPATE!
-
You MUST give before you can take. If you say "I want 'x' and ''y" is my offering I will have your reply deleted, and you will not be able to continue in the thread.
-this is not an auction. Your gift is just that, a free gift for anyone that has given already. Do not treat it like an auction, you may and are encouraged to show the value of your item, but you can not say "I want .... For it".
-For every item you PIF you may take another's gift, but please keep the value of the item you TAKE roughly equal to the item you GIVE. Ie, do not expect to get a riding lawnmower if you give a matchbox car.
-you can give as many items as you like, they do not have to be claimed before you can take someone else's gift. Do not claim a higher number than you have given.
-After you have given your item(s) YOU are responsible for ensuring it gets to the person that claims it UNLESS you make it very obvious it has to be picked up.
-when your item has been claimed, get it on the way to the claimee fast. Do not wait for your item to get to you before you send your item out. If you feel cheated contact me, NOT THE MODERATORS, they are busy enough. There are always a few people that do not receive their gifts, let's not repeat that this year.
-if you see a PIF that you would like to claim, do so by hitting the quote button for that particular button, and say "I WOULD LIKE TO CLAIM THIS PLEASE". Do NOT claim by using pm, let's keep it in the open.
-try to put up a picture of your gift, if you need help posting pictures one of us can help.
-I will do the thread inventory, I can handle it, and it keeps confusion down.
HAVE FUN!
Let people know in the other forums if they do not come into general, and let's make the third year as big a success as the first two!
