I want to do a white elephant swap...

Who’s got his address?

Was it ever said if we could send more than one thing? I might want to send a couple small things, maybe.

And should we say who’s sending it, or are we waiting until everyone has theirs and then posting who we had?

Well, I dunno if this is Kosher or not, but I’m sending several small things… hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Your second question is a good one Kat! Anyone with an answer?

Uh oh!!! I didn’t get my email. Can you resend? Send to GLFreak@aol.com OR bpayne@iwon.com.

It looks like many have already eceived an email with details for the white elephant exchange. I emailed to join in and haven’t received an email with details yet. :frowning: Does this mean I don’t get to play?

I too would like to know if we have to “sign” our - er - gifts? Anyone know?

Good question Callie…I suspect that it would be a matter of courtesy.

To answer questions, in no particular order:

Short answer is: NO
Longer answer: No. In order to ensure a random distribution, I entered the names of every Doper that had sent their information on time [sub]<coughpurplebearcough>[/sub] into a database, then scripted a program to prot that information over the network through the main hub, over the VAX and back through a randomizing multi-plexor. The names were rolled, spindled and folded and the result was sent back to me. Then I drew names from a hat and put them next to an alphabetical list.

Send whatever you want, it’s completely up to you.

Grace and Abby, I sorry if you didn’t get yours yet, I don’t know what happened. I’ll look into it and fire off your info tonight. Anyone else still waiting? Email me.

I’m going to go with a “Yes” on this one. I think it’d be nice to know who is responsible for sending the lilac and pewter napkin holders, wouldn’t you?

Well, someone does, I know that ‘cuz I sent it :smiley: If’n y’all are feeling generous, just make sure to attend a Dopefest sometime and share the joy, ya’ know?

Anything else, let me know. Again, Grace and Abby, I’ll resend your info tonight, and sorry 'bout that.

I didn’t get my email :frowning:

I went to the post office here this morning, and the cr… uh items are on the way… the lady at the PO (if I understood her right, remember she was speaking Korean…) said it would take 10-15 days from here…

Some poor unsupectin’ slob has a package in the mail right now!!

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehe!:smiley:

(I just hope I filled all the forms out correctly!)

Abby, I just got a bounce from AOL saying you are not accepting email, so I don’t know what to tell you right now. I’ll look into it again tomorrow.

Next, as those that have gotten the email may have noticed, it did not come from my, normal, listed email addy. I used the [sub]work[/sub] email for it’s LAN speed, etc. I’m wondering if this isn’t the problem for those that say they haven’t received anything? Look for a message with a subject of thinksnow says, you’ve got… . As I said, it won’t have been from “thinksnow@ohiostatebuckeyes.com”, but it is, in fact, from me.

Hopefully, that clears things up.

P.S.: AYAS, I resent your info.

Okay. Who got thinksnow’s address?

C’mon, fess up and share so we can shower him with sh… I mean, gifts. Gifts. Really.

thinksnow - do you have something against my username? :slight_smile:

yay. the person I got is recieving two lovely (snicker, snicker) items, probably in addition to some random stuff I find laying around.

And when you get it… I appologize for the box being so icky.

thinksnow Thank you for trying to resend. I can’t imagine the problem, I’ve only one moron blocked from emailing (and I’m certain you’re not him). I double checked the settings and everything appears fine from here. I’ll email you tonight and perhaps it will work better if it is a reply. Thank you again Cranky for the fun idea and thinksnow for coordinating things.

Be still me beating heart.

It’s all that [sub]<coughsecretsantacough>[/sub] reading I’ve been doing, gets the romantic juices going.
:stuck_out_tongue:

That got me all hot and bothered as well.

“It’s no good, Capt’n! I cannae hold 'er. If I can just reconfigure the randomizing multi-plexor…”

I dunno aboot the rest o’ ye, but I’m sendin’ something nice that I simply have no use for. Not used, not ugly, kinda lovely and all.

I really should learn to be more - um. What’s the word?

Wow, I hope Ginger got me.

I, on the other hand, haven’t decided what to send yet. Procrastinate, procrastinate, procrastinate.

I haven’t sent mine either. I had something picked out, you know something that screams

WHITE ELEPHANT!

and then I got thinksnows email saying to send something good and now I don’t know if my pick is worthy sob!
