Holiday Card Comp

Hello all, And happy December first

:r: Ok, here is a “competition” I’m wanting to host. (I use the word competition lightly due to the fact there aren't any winners or huge prizes)


:r: Ok so here is the idea, you sign up for the list, then I’ll pm you with the name of another member on the lists name, that will be the person you make a Christmas/ Holiday card for. it doesn't have to be animated, it doesn't even have to be a long hard drawing, just some sort of card for someone.


Rules:
:r:1:Dont go “ OH I HATE THAT PERSON I’M NOT DOING A CARD FOR THEM” or “ WHY DIDI I HAVE TO GETT THAT MEMBER TYO DO A CARD FOR ME0" ... that's just not cool, and you’ll end up hurting someones feelings.

:r:2: Cards are due and shared 20th, that gives you 20 days. from now

:r:3: the comp will start when we have 4 people on the list

:r:4: Lets have fun with this, I mean do what ever you want...

:r:5: Post your cards here on the 20th




So far there are 8 on the list.
(Just post below to have your name added to the list)





As well, if you really want to...you can do more then one.

This is a really nice idea Tim :)
Spread the holiday cheer.

Can I suggest we share the cards on the 30th or so? Just so it's that much closer to Christmas time. Maybe we could even PM them to each other, and display them here later.

Think it over, and put meh on the list.

Yeh Tim, that is a really great idea. Like I don't have enuff to do already but put meh down too. B)

btw: I don't really care who ya pick for me to do a card for 'cause I don't think that there's anyone here that I don't like.

*Edit: Oh! I just thought of something! Wot if the recipient doesn't really recognise Christmas due to religion or whatever . . . it'd be really embarassing to get all "Merry Christmas'y" to a Jewish person or a Bhuddist or something. :worry: And it'd be a shame to exclude them from getting some cheer just because it's Chanukka or Kwanza or Winter etc.

Sorry, I was just mixing up dates. Of course it's the 25th.
But I still think it should be later than the 20th.

Really? How much later?

I dunno... of all the cards I've ever received, the ones that come late always make me wonder why the sender even bothered.
Well.. actually, I have a few friends that are that way by nature. I got a card from a bud one year that he'd written inside, "holy crap! I saw my neighbour throwing out his xmas tree and realised I'd missed christmas! didja have a good christmas? I hope so."

I got the card in time for spring break and was kinda pleased that he'd cared enuff to send one. And sure enuff it was the only card he'd sent. :rolleyes:

Not too much later, but I'm thinking we could PM each other on christmas eve. That way you have something to look forward to on (or very near) christmas day, instead of adding hype to the week leading up to it.

Tim's call, obviously.

lets just keep it the 20th. that gives everyone plenty time (remember, these don't need to be masterpieces, just something nice for someone).

what tim said and timezones complicate everything. say if you sent it when it was christmas eve for you, but it's already christmas for the receiver :lol:

I think 'Happy Holidays' would do the trick. :P

Nice idea, Tim. I'd like to see how this goes.
