I’m feeling exceptionally lazy in this damn heat so I’ll keep my usual excessive carnival barking to a minimum.

Shot glass exchange is here!

Email me at sdmbshotglass@gmail with:

- Real name
- SDMB handle
- Address
- Willingness to ship internationally. (If you are, you might want to check international rates. I was informed last year that FedEx in particular was charging exorbitant amounts to send relatively small packages overseas from the US. USPS was cheaper but much more stringent about sending booze through the mail – as in, it’s prohibited.)

Package contents:

- Mandatory: shot glass, representative of your locus.
- Optional: everything else – local goodies and kitsch are always welcome.

Date I’ll start matching senders to recipients: Oh, lets say September 1 because why not.

Last year’s players and/or people I’ve noted might be interested:  
@penultima_thule  
@OttoDaFe  
@feppytweed  
@silenus  
@Czarcasm  
@romansperson  
@Labdad  
@zoid  
@swampspruce  
@Teuton

Weird. I just sent one from my primary account to the shot glass account without issue. Maybe give it some time and try again? Or you can PM it to me. I’m not picky.

A good concept in which I need to lift my game.

Anyhoo, and shipping internationally sorta goes with the territory. 🙃

I’m in! The email worked for me, and I haven’t seen anything come into the gmail address I use to host past exchanges, so… ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯

Thanks for taking the initiative again, Lancia!

I’ll tally up the players that have noted their interest in this thread and then check for PM’s and/or emails later this afternoon and post an update.

I just noticed that I wrote the email in the OP as sdmbshotglass@gmail rather than [sdmbshotglass@gmail.com](mailto:sdmbshotglass@gmail.com). Perhaps that’s what’s giving people trouble? I’ve double-checked and the “sdmbshotglass” part is correct.

I very much love this exchange, it’s legitimately my favorite thing on the 'Dope…but I just can’t this year. That said, thank you so much for tagging me! I don’t log on near as much as I want to, but life is busy you know? Please keep tagging me though in the future because I won’t be like this forever!

(God I hope lol)

All duly noted. I fell like I’m annoying people by tagging them but I’ll make sure to keep you in the loop in all the future games.
