Ransom Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Patrick, even though he hasn't checked in lately, GoF did ask me for my address, so he's still in. TO KEEP TRACK OF THE BOOKS, PLEASE POST WHEN YOU MAIL A BOOK OFF, THEN RECEIVE ONE IN THE MAIL. THAT WAY WE CAN TELL HOW LONG IT TAKES SNAIL MAIL TO DELIVER TO THE DIFFERENT AREAS, AND IT WILL BE A HEADS UP IF ONE OF THE BOOKS GOES MISSING — BUT LET'S HOPE NONE OF THEM DO!!! BTW, kinda late post for this, but did you all put your name on your book somewhere? That also helps keep track of whose book is where in the rotation ( although I'd know Eye's and Patrick's books anywhere ) ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Patrick Hand Posted November 3, 2007 Author Posted November 3, 2007 Patrick..ease up on the reigns..This group issure to come thru.. Not pickin on you.....but there are some "breaks in the "chain"....." And I'm trying to fix them..... For example.... I PM'ed caskitchris a week ago to get his address.... so far I haven't gotten a reply...OK.. so I PM'ed Mab.... she's next in line..... turns out the person below her hasn't sent thier address either.... Without the adresses to send the sketchbooks to... we will be kinda slowed down..... SO... If casketchris don't send me his addres by Monday.. I will have to boot him offa the list... (Yah... ain't cool... but dang.... ) then send my sketchbook to Mab...... And (well I can look it up.....) but if the person below Mab don't reply... they gotta go offa the list also..... Dang.... I don't wanna be a hard-ass or nothing.... but I want this to work... SNOT.... this is supost to be fun.... Once it all gets ironed out it will be..... (Oh yah.... and how to handle the Hollydays...... I kinda got that figured out.... but will post and see if everyone agrees with it........) Still got to get it working first.............
Pew Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 Just recieved Oderlesseye's. Damn that book is big. It's like a photo album.... , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
Red Cat Jenny Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 Rogue Mermaid I recieved your book this morning! Very nice. My doggie spent 20 minutes sniffing the envelope...hmm GOF your will go out by mid week. I've been working midnights, but now I'm off. whee! Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
Ransom Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 In Patrick's defence, he's not being too harsh on you lot, he's just trying to keep things organized so that this project works. With this many players, if one person drags their feet and gets their book out late, it's like the domino effect — it screws up everyone down the line. This is something we discovered in the first round — big time — to the point where one book only made it to one person and then was sent back, so that person's book never even made the round. I'm sure once the first jump is completed and everyone gets the hang of it, then things will smooth down. Just keep in mind that there are ten of us, all needing to get the books out on time, so that we can all get our books, chock full of very kewl artwork, back as soon as possible. Trust me, this is FUN, but it only stays fun when everyone who made the committment to play keeps to the plan. OKay, end of rant......... ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Skull pyrate Carter Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 Sorry MAB, i was sure you'd be able to pick up my address from osmosis or esp or something. Sent ya a message. Good to see Oderless got mine. Okay, now we can play....
oderlesseye Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 So how long do I get to hang on to any one sketch book..On that point Eye was not clear... Patrick & Ransom..I acknowlege and understand.... your positions.. http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits.

Patrick Hand Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 I got Ransom's sketchbook yesterday (I think it actuly arrived on Friday... so it takes about three days for her book to get to me......) Hopefully Caskitchris will reply to the PM, so I can send mine to him.... otherwise, I'll have to send it to Mab.... Is there anyone else on the list who dosen't have the address where to send thiers? I also PM'ed Cap'n Pete Straw, to figure out if we can add him to the list.....
Rogue Mermaid Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Rogue Mermaid I recieved your book this morning! Very nice. My doggie spent 20 minutes sniffing the envelope...hmmGOF your will go out by mid week. I've been working midnights, but now I'm off. whee! Excellent! I was just about to check my delivery conformation online. I'm glad your pup likes it I don't have Pew's book yet, but he said he sent it and we're in the same smallish state, so, I'm willing to bet it will be in the mail as soon as I get home.
Patrick Hand Posted November 6, 2007 Author Posted November 6, 2007 I will have to go back through the list and see who has recieved a sketchbook..... casketchriss hasn't returned my PM for his address... so I think I will send mine to Black Mab tomarrow........ Anyone else in the loop that hasen't got the adresss where to send thiers, let me know......... I'm thinking that with the Holydays coming up next month, that it may be a good idea to fix any breaks in the loop, and see if we can insert Cap'n Pete Straw in.... SO what if... instead of sending out the sketchbooks at the end of this month.... we send them out after Christmass ? Don't wait untill the last minute to do your stuff.... but it would give me time to figure out where any "breaks" are, and maybe get everything running kinda-sorta smoothly......
Pew Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 SO what if... instead of sending out the sketchbooks at the end of this month.... we send them out after Christmas ? To be honest, I'd like to stay on the 30 day turn around if possible.

Patrick Hand Posted November 6, 2007 Author Posted November 6, 2007 I went through the List.... and it's not as bad as I thought....(hey... I was panicking...... ) The names in Red have sent thier sketchbooks, and they have been recieved by the person below them on the list, The names in Blue have sent thiers, but I couldn't find a post that said they have been recieved yet. Pew Rogue Mermaid Red Cat Jenny GOF Ransom Patrick Hand *casketchris Black Mab Skull pyrate Carter Oderlesseye I'm sending my sketchbook to Black Mab today, I never recieved casketchris's address......So I might have to drop him from the list...... Red Cat Jenny, have youu sent yours out yet? And Black Mab, are you sending yours, or personaly delivering it?
Ransom Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 SO what if... instead of sending out the sketchbooks at the end of this month.... we send them out after Christmas ? To be honest, I'd like to stay on the 30 day turn around if possible. Holidays will give me more time to work on the project. I'd prefer to stay on the 30/31 day turnaround as well. I don't think the holidays will make that big a difference, and the chances of the books getting mislaid — stepped on, coffee spilled on, dog chewed, etc. — go up the longer they hang around someone's house. It may mean a few January books get out late, but we're already running a week late as it is, so I don't think that will be a big deal. However, that said, I will abide by the group's decision.

Patrick Hand Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 OK... most people wanna keep sending the sketchbooks out at the end of the month.... so we will keep it that way..... cool..... OK... another problem.... casketchriss sent me his addres today.... unfortunatly... I just sent my sketchboot to black Mab this afternoon.... If Mab hasen't sent her's out... I can figure out how to work this... otherwiise... I'm kinda confused about wot to do...... Any sugestions.......
Ransom Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Not trying to be a hard ass about this, but CasketChris knew the time table, and didn't respond to your PMs for six days. Doesn't sound like he's all that interested. Since you've already sent your book to Mab, I'd say he's a day late and a dollar short. We've both said from the beginning — if everyone doesn't follow the plan, and the time table, then this doesn't work, and it screws it for everyone. It's like I said in the first round. I can give a heads up when the rounds start, I can lay down the rules and the time frame, and we can all post when we mail/receive the books, but I can't babysit you all. Neither can Patrick. I'm sorry CasketChris took so long to check in and may miss this round. If there is another, he can catch it then. Or, Patrick may decide to work something out. But this is an example of how this fun project can go down the tubes if we don't all try to stick to the plan. End of rant... ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Patrick Hand Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 Well I'm kinda peaved.... this shoulda been snot simple...... I didn' t get a reply untill today.. but by that time I already sent my sketchbook out to the next person in line (Black Mab)....... But I wanna keep things fun.... and heck it is fun once we get it working..... SO.... I sent my sketchbook to Mab.... if she hasn't sent her's out yet.... then we can fit casketchris in..... otherwise..... awh heck.... Those who fall behind get left behind....... Snot.. I ain't th' Captain of this... just trying to get it to work... I'd rather be spendin my time doing something fun in Ransoms sketchbook than worying bout this snot...... So ... if anyone else can figure out how to make the "parts" work..... hcek post it... cause.... I can't figure it out..... Do I "dump" caskitchriss, because he was too late... or how can we fit him back in....... I don't know.... any sujjestions are welcome....
Pew Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Just leave casketchris out for this month. Insert him in at the end of November. This can be his "bye" month. Since Mab already has yours Patrick, just send him Ransom's (the next in line) instead of sending it to Mab. That will keep the group rotation as is, and casketchris will still be able to participate, (just a month later). , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
