Nigel Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 Thanks for the cutting diagram! An excellent way to make the most out of the cards stock. I set up all my business cards on a similar template. Does anyone laminate their cards? ("oh yes, that's very piratey...") Sir Nigel - aka "Sir Freelancealot"; aka "Ace of Cads"; aka "JACKPOT!!" (cha-CHING!) "Mojitos BAD!...Lesbians with free rum GOOD!!!"
Ransom Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Brig also reminded me. . . .be sure to include an SASE that'll fit 8 PTC's . . . Okay, I thought you said do 10 PTCs??? That's what I sent. Also, we never included a SASE before, since there is no way to know how heavy the end results of the cards might be, or that they would fit into a regular envelope. Cannibal Chrispy did very 3-D cards that wouldn't have survived in a regular envelope. It's kinda a given, here on the Pub, that he who wrangles, pays the postage. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Pew Posted October 24, 2009 Author Posted October 24, 2009 No biggie Ransom. That's cool . . . I sent a SASE last time. If I send 10 cards, then I'll get 10 cards, should be nearly the same postage. But again, it's not a big deal. Maybe I'll just keep them all . . . muhahahahahahahaha , 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."
Ransom Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 **Ransom back-peddles with embarrassment** You did send a SASE last time? Was I supposed to, and screwed up! Yikes! I do know that when I did the first round of cards, Cannibal Chrispy's would have been smashed to bits of I had sent all the cards back out in a regular envelope. I don't know that mine this time will fare too well in a regular one either, being a little...bony. LOL ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Brig Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Putting the finishing touches on mine (nothing like last minute!) and wanted to be sure of the participants. Is this still a correct accounting?

Pew Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 Sounds correct to me . . .

Brig Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Mailed mine today. :) Oh, how beautiful it used to be Just you and me, far beyond the sea -Nightwish Alice Mason, Crewe of the Archangel
Ransom Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Muster looks good to me. Like I said, I made ten cards, so the wrangler can keep an extra one, and then he can decide who gets the other bonus card! LOL R ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Pew Posted November 2, 2009 Author Posted November 2, 2009 I received only Patrick's cards Saturday. Looking like Tuesday now for a mail out . . . , 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."

Pew Posted November 2, 2009 Author Posted November 2, 2009 No worries Brig. I received yours and Red Jessi's today.

Brig Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Thanks, Pew :) Oh, how beautiful it used to be Just you and me, far beyond the sea -Nightwish Alice Mason, Crewe of the Archangel
Pew Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 None received today . . . , 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."
Guest Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 See... I counted out th' days, and figured it out exactly right.... so Mine would arrive on Halloween.... (How cool is that?)
michaelsbagley Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Okay, I am going to have to admit some guilt here. I meant to send them Saturday (the deadline posted in the first post was for Oct. 31st), but shopping for a home and dealing with all the frustrations regarding that kept me from the post office that day... Monday was no better for me, Tuesday, I just plain simply forgot from all the worries and distractions.. But I did get them sent today. I tried to send them overnight, but the lady at the post office informed me that the best they could do was guarantee delivery by Friday before 3:00 PM. *Bows my head in shame* Sorry about the delay, even more so because I had the cards completed on time, I just didn't make it to the post office on time.
Pew Posted November 4, 2009 Author Posted November 4, 2009 No worries Michael. I try to emphasize the "no stress" part of our PTC's. Sounds like you're under a ton of it without worrying about us. Thank you for participating, hope the house goes well.

Pew Posted November 10, 2009 Author Posted November 10, 2009 I have sent a pm to Nigel to inquire if he is still participating. I have not heard back from him, so I am going to send the cards out that I have received. I'll wait until Wednesday. They will be going to post Thursday, so many of you should have them by Saturday. , 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."
Pew Posted November 12, 2009 Author Posted November 12, 2009 Still no word from Nigel.
