NC Holiday Card Exchange 2014??

For those of you that don't know - or simply haven't participated before! - every year a few of us NCers run a Holiday card exchange where we ship out cards to everyone who wants to participate. It's a LOT of fun and we always get cards from all over the world - you are allowed to participate regardless of where you live!

The rules are simple, so here it goes!

1) You will receive a list of every participant to send a card to (it's not like a Secret Santa where you get one person). Please remember, however, that these people are trusting you with their real names and addresses - please do NOT do anything stupid with this list!

2) Please do not sign up for the card exchange if you don't intend to follow through. It'd be really unfair if you get 30 cards from people but don't send out any yourself.

3) Because sending out addresses to people is Serious Business, you must have 100 non-spam posts in a variety of forums (so not just the Subeta new colors forum, or something - basically, we want everyone to know you) and you must have been a member of Neocolours for at least six months. I know these seem strict, but like I said - addresses. We want it to be a little strict.

To participate:
Please copy and paste the following into a PM for me and fill it out with the appropriate information:
CODE: SELECT ALL
NC Username:
Full Name + Address (include country, please!):
Special Instructions:


I've cleaned out my PM box in anticipation of participants!

Special Instructions can include things like if you need the cards mailed by a certain date to reach you or anything like that. In the past it's been used to include if you don't want a religious card, but in the past I don't think anyone here has gotten a very religious card... so I assume it's not a problem. Feel free to note it if you want, however, or anything else!

Signups will end on December 1st, unless I hear otherwise that this is too late and we should extend it! People from oversees, please let me know.

I think that's about it! If you have any questions, post here. Or PM me. Or whatever, most of you know how to hunt me down in some way xD

Also, feel free to post on the the thread if you're going to be joining, or for general discussion! We usually hang out here to discuss the cards we get anyway.

Hey guys, just letting you know I'm going to send out the info tonight - I'm sorry for the delay. There's been some personal things happening the past few days, so I just haven't had a second to spare. I'll get this out to you tonight <3

We already got cards from Tiel and Seerow :D Yay! We have this little thing we hang on the wall now to put cards in, so it's nice to see it getting full already c:

My cards went out today, so they should arrive shortly!

I got Seerow's and Tiel's cards :) Loved the feather. I'll have mine in the mail sometime this week - when I can properly see and write again (caught a cold)

I've received everyone's cards! I hope mine were sent out in a decent enough time this year (probably not) ^-^;;

I think I've got most people's, has been very fun to check the mail and find things for me!

I'm glad you all liked the feathers! They were graciously donated by Zia (Full name: Jadzia Dax), the green cheek conure, who I'm not sure I've introduced here before. Here she is eating oranges and making a mess of my keyboard. (Hopefully Facebook lets me cross post the image, I don't feel like trying to log into Photobucket right now)
