haha, we are so offtopic, but i guess we deserve it a bit after all that! :lol:

 

i got a postcard from my friend in sweden today, and it reminded me of the project :D

  • Author

ohhh that's sweet :blush:

 

the only postcard that I've got... it's one that I sent to myself when I was in disneyworld :laugh3: and the postcard arrived like a week after me :laugh3:

  • Author

64 people sending postcards already :dance:

 

here we have a "fan club".. but it's not like the typical fan club..

 

I mean, we all love Coldplay but we're friends now (we spent too much time together stalking Coldplay when they came here)... they're really nice people :nice:

 

so, I told them about the idea and they loved it and will send their postcards too!

:stunned:

 

EXACTLY. add in the beatles (why i became an anglophile in the first place) and hugh laurie, as well as various other bands, books, and authors, and that's the BEGINNING of why i love england.

 

Wow... :stunned: We're creepily alike. You're reading my mind! *looks over shoulder to make sure you're not there*

 

Have you ever read PG Wodehouse, speaking of British authors? I guess if you've watched Jeeves and Wooster with Fry and Laurie, you'd know of him...

ooh yay! i really do say the more the merrier. i know some people are adamant about it being only coldplayers, but really i don't think the band will care what websites their fans are affiliated with. its all about saying thanks :D

yeah and we all will put the project logo so I guess it's ok :P

it's on my reading list, which is sooo long when i'm at uni :sad:

 

most of my favorite authors and books are really contemporary, though. i'm a HUGE ian mcewan fan (and am going to his university next year with a chance to work with him, perhaps!)

 

@lore: should we set a deadline for people to submit logos by? i feel like we should start voting on them like, tuesday at the latest. i think things are going to start moving pretty fast when/if we get a response from debs.

Um...stupid question, who is debs?!!!!!

  • Author

yeah it's true...

 

the deadline should be next sunday or monday then

 

?

 

and after that I think we could start another thread to vote for the logo

I highly suggest that you start with "Code of the Woosters", and go from there, seeing as he's written over 90 books. That one is incredible!

 

I think Monday's a good deadline. It's a holiday weekend in the US, so that gives our American users a chance to work :)

yeah, definitely. and another thread to vote for how we deliver them? because i'm a geek, i have an MSword document explaining the plans as we know them and listing the pros and cons of each one for easy voting :D

my high school (and middle school and elementary school, for that matter) was called wooster, so i have an unusual attatchment to the name :D

 

deadline, monday at midnight in each persons local area?

  • Author

you're so organized :blush:

 

and already said it in another post!

 

since I learned how to put polls in an already existent thread (Thanks Ian :P ) I think I can make the logos thread so everyone will see it and post their creations :P

Are we posting the logos there that were already posted on this thread? Or do those people have to do that themselves?

  • Author

it's just copy and paste so I can do it :D

  • Author

so.. deadline at monday 23:59 or sunday 23:59? :P

Okay, I was just checking :)

 

Monday, unless we somehow hear from Debs incredibly quickly and we can start moving things along...

monday at 23:59, i would say :D

 

i'm a bit neurotic about organization and clearly-presented information :rolleyes:

 

can you put that in the first post?

  • Author

yup... and I'm creating a thread for the logos :P

  • Author

maybe a standard time?

 

23:59 london time?

 

new york time?

weeoo :D

 

but is it one of those that you can multiple vote for? because if someone submits a really awesome logo late and we've already voted, that's kind of sad...

 

NY time? i don't think it really matters; i just say NY time because that's my time zone :P

  • Author

I'll create a poll once the time to submit logos it's over so don't worry :P

yeah, definitely. and another thread to vote for how we deliver them? because i'm a geek, i have an MSword document explaining the plans as we know them and listing the pros and cons of each one for easy voting :D

 

I didn't notice this post, sorry! I think that poll should wait until we get a response from Debs, since she may offer a perfect solution (e.g. an address), or shoot all of our plans down...

oh yes, i meant later :D. i assume i'll have to edit it or eliminate plans once we hear from her :D

 

and good idea, lore :dance:

sorry i didn't catch that before.
