Lurkers? Do support us in email.
(I know this is cryptic, but Stompies, I swear it's relevant to general 'Ffista interest. Needed to be said in this thread to be seen for sure.)
And is secretly AWESOME.
On behalf of Buffistas, thanks. A lot.
Amazon deal of the day - complete Deadwood for $55: [link]
Fixed. Sorry about that - trying to do too many things at once.
$55.
Jesse! You are next on the Nail Polish Round Robin!
But your address on the list is blank; please send me and I will get it off to you, today, if you see this and reply before I leave, or tomorrow.
ALSO:
In Bitches, we have been discussing a Makeup Round Robin Box!
Please e-me at my profile addy if you have question/would like to participate.
So far we have four people on the list; if we can get it up to 9 or so, I think Project Makeup Round Robin will be a go!
Chicagoistas! Who wants my 2 tickets to the opening of A Christmas Carol at the Goodman, November 27th 6:30pm? First person to email my profile address gets 'em.
edit: Tickets have been claimed.
REMINDER! F2F proposals are going on now! We'd agreed to close the initial proposals on the 20th, which is in five days. Anyone else want to propose a West Coast site?
I thought I'd announce that we're just starting the next play-by-forum game of Battlestar Galactica in the Gaming thread. This is the eleventh game we've played here. BSG is not only fun to play, it also makes for an exciting spectator sport, especially since the format allows for some role-playing too. Any lurkers who'd like to watch are very welcome to do so (quite aside from the fact that we couldn't stop you even if we wanted).
FYI:
If you are getting "captcha" codes when posing videos from YouTube to Facebook, add "&feature=related" to the end of the YouTube URL.
Just want to check to see if anyone else wanted to propose a West Coast city for the F2F. Given the delay that resulted in proposals ending right before Thanksgiving this year, Pasadena was the only city with an official city before the 20th deadline, Javacat proposed a retreat--anyone else? Last call before voting.
