DMusic Gift Exchange

onewhodreams	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:33 PM We're a Family here, right? Friends, community... We just felt like with the recent happenings that we would try something new, something fun, something to cheer us all up... So, leplume and I came up with the idea for a DMusic Gift Exchange. How it works.... Sign up here in this thread.... Each person who signs up will be matched with someone else to exchange gifts with. Gifts are to be no more than $10 in value and can be gag gifts if you so choose. When you are matched up (names drawn out of a hat) with your gift exchange person, you may note them privately to get their address. *Important* If you sign up, please do not flake out.... it would not be fair to the person who you are to exchange with. When all gifts have been sent, we can all share what we got and who it was from and give our sincere thanks. So whaddya' think? You in?
leplume	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:38 PM I'm in.. oh yeah! This will be fun!
hantu	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:46 PM haha yeh im in, this should be fun and/or interesting. Great idea OWD & Leplume.. oh but im in the UK
leplume	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:48 PM Doesnt matter where you are! Thats the beauty of it!
hantu	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:52 PM Sweet
GeneHilbert	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 12:49 AM That would be kewl - I'm in.......
hantu	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 11:06 PM thats it 4 people, ok yeh that works i guess, it being an even number, but im sure this was meant to be in a much larger scale.. rite? so i guess this would render my post and official "bump", wow my first DM bump hmm actually my first ever bump
imemine	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 11:10 PM Cool! I’m in----give $10 to the Red Cross!---I’ll match every gift!
psypig	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 5:43 AM well i suppose i'd do it but i'm UK as well. cold end up getting stung for P+P.
insanebiatch	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 7:04 AM same here psypig but sure sounds like fun
hantu	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 11:59 AM well seeing there are many people from uk, we could keep it within countries, but that would be boring
psypig	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 12:18 PM i'd quite like it if i got paired with someone from the US. I'm gonna have to look into postage charges.
hantu	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 2:12 PM http://www.postoffice.co.uk/portal/po/content1?catId=5000003&mediaId=400347 ain't as bad as i imagined
leplume	Date: September 3, 2005 @ 3:59 PM nah the UK is not that bad. everyone should do this. unless you buy your person $10 of rocks the P+P shouldnt be too bad.
hantu	Date: September 4, 2005 @ 11:34 AM count = 6.. common people we can do better than that
hantu	Date: September 4, 2005 @ 8:50 PM here's a thought, what about creating a gift chain.. so person 1 send to person 2, person 2 sends to person 3 and so on and so forth...... person 4657 send to person 1. Might be quite caotic though. Just a thought
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 12:16 PM huh??? what happened here??? is this a no show????
psypig	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 12:18 PM why not do it with the 6 of us to prove it works?
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 12:49 PM lol well the its going, it seems we will have no choice... although there are a few more people i would have thought would be up for it.. like hmm deadraven, egac, lostyears, genehilbert, jennyk ... common people wakey wakey... this is going to be a dm revolution, be a part of it NOW
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 12:50 PM oh wait gene is here.. woops
leplume	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:23 PM yeah lets do this thing. so if no one else wants to just the people here will. and then we can brag about the cool stuff we get each other and make everyone else jealous! I'll make the list of people here and pick names out of a hat, if thats okay with everyone. Then I'll note you with who you get to buy for! Let me know if this is okay, and when I hear from all of you I'll do it!
GeneHilbert	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:32 PM I had assumed this was a Christmas thing …….. YES….. NO…………..? Well if it is we still have a little time........ Hell it's only Sept... Set a deadline 1st for sign up... Nov 1st or something.... so we get as many involved as want and no one can say they didn't know.....
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:37 PM good idea... do it as a christmas thing, it will give everybody more time then... although i did like the idea of braggin and making everyone jelouse ... but lets give them a little more time..
leplume	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:40 PM nah, come on, lets think outside of the box!! we dont need to wait for Christmas... too far away. I like the idea of a deadline but not that far away. How's this... If you want to particpate, post here until the end of September. Then we'll find out who we get and the giving begins.
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:43 PM omg out of the box... ok yeh lets not wait for christmas, we will do it for sometime in october and then that will be our DM gift exchange day.. i could be like a yearly thing ... or am i going a bit over the top??
GeneHilbert	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 1:47 PM Well...... when is the official Dmusic birthday? Does anyone know?
leplume	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 2:02 PM shamprod! always planning for more!! lets try one and see how it goes! Don't know when Dmusic's birthday is...but we could make this a Halloween gift exchange! That might make for some interesting gifts!
psypig	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 2:16 PM I'm ready whenever. Are we gonna set any 'gift guidelines' or just leave it up to peoples imagination? Could be interesting...
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 2:35 PM hehe yeh open package from psy .. "aaah army of pigs, help"
leplume	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 2:52 PM oh i think imagination is the way to go! I suddenly can't wait to see what i get!
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 3:10 PM oh i know.. i'll make something for someone... that way it will be a shit present and creative all at the same time
GeneHilbert	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 3:10 PM Oh absolutly – let you imagination run….. free……….. free like wind…………. Born Free……. As Free as the wind blows………. As free as ……….. Oh sorry I got carried away…………
leplume	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 3:14 PM if i get a box of shit from sham i'm not going to be happy! maybe we need some guidelines... 1. no excrement or bodily fluids 2. no actual body parts 3. no live pigs other than that, hell, its wide open!!
hantu	Date: September 8, 2005 @ 3:25 PM damn .. i was gonna wrap meself up and send it to you... although not exactly sure how

Intergalacti...	Date: September 9, 2005 @ 3:36 PM Damn you guys I really wanna do this but I don't think I'm gonna be able to I've got seven birthdays in the month of september and a birthday every month before then, on my money its not possible at the moment sorry whoever I could have bought a gift for.... hmm I may ask for a raise and get back to you.
hantu	Date: September 9, 2005 @ 3:49 PM seven birthdays in a month, my goodness me, i feel so sorry for you, all those gifts you have to choose out for people... i get all stressed buying presents just for me parents a couple of times a year... Everyone else can get a text from me Anyway, taking into consideration ur situation, i think we can dismiss you but i can't promiss i won't brag about my gift to you .. or who know maybe someone will be kind enough to still get you a gift And how are we doing this, is it gonna be people paired up or a chain??? either way i know it will be randomly picked from leplume's magic hat
leplume	Date: September 9, 2005 @ 4:03 PM too many questions sham!
