Oh, lmao. Yeah, I THOUGHT I had your address. Sorry, I'm running off of 8 hours of sleep (over the course of three days) and I had a midterm to worry about.

Okay, so I finally have the complete and updated list. Now officially closed:

Tophy
DJ CherryPie
Pirate
Beej
Val
Equinox/Giu
Bats!
Pepper
Be Secret And Exult
Xenu
Jubilee!
TheNinjaForHire
Shiiiiiny
Soulcamp
Khaaaaansumating
DJ Qelyn
Chanel

Though, I still need Soulcamp's address.

Okay, I have the pairs sorted out. It's a long chain that comes around in a circle, haha. Assignments will be sent out soon.

Just sent you my address...

Okay, awesome. So everyone should've gotten their assignments -- please let me know if you didn't! I either sent you a private message or noted you on Mother Consu.

So, here are the details on how I selected everyone's recipients:

I decided to just make it a chain. Someone sends their to someone, who is supposed to send one to someone else, etc.

I started with Jubilee! since she's the only one outside fo the country. I put everyone's name in a bag and drew out her recipient at random, then drew out who she's supposed to receive one from at random. That way it would be fair.

After that, I tried to organize the names into groups of general localities (for example, if this had been done in Canada I would've organized you in terms of "Western Canada," "Central Canada," etc.).

So yeah. I made the chain that way, drawing names at random from localities and the like. If yours isn't too local then that means that you were the last in your locality and I had to start drawing from another.

And finally, I had to move a few people around in their locality, for obvious reasons. But the only time it happened was when I drew DJ Qelyn to be Chanel's Valentine... which, for the purposes of this exchange, would obviously be lame, lol.

So yeah. That's it. Please send your Valentines out by Saturday so that everyone gets theirs by V-Day! Have fun, everyone.

I'll post the chain of senders and recipients on the 15th, mwahaha.

dammitfuckingshit i can't believe i missed this!

I'm sorry! I would add you but there's just no time. :/ But I highly encourage anyone wanting to send you Valentines to do so. I'll see if I can make you one in Photoshop.

you can be my valentine, love.

Just a reminder!

EVERYONE PARTICIPATING IN THE VALENTINE'S EXCHANGE SHOULD BE SENDING THEIR VALENTINES OUT TODAY, IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE SO ALREADY!!!

I just sent my roommate out with mine, haha. Luckily she was already going to the post office to send something else out.

Yeah about that...mine won't be done until tomorrow and since tomorrow is Sunday mine isn't going to get out in the mail until Monday. Everyone assume I'm your valentine and anticipate a late arrival. Sorry, I suck I know.

Yeah, mine is not done yet either, but it's OK 'cause I'll Priority Mail it.

Mine is just a card and stuff. Should I send more?

Ahaha, well since I arranged it so that most of us are somewhat close to each other, even if you send it out Monday it should still get to your recipient on time, unless USPS decides to totally suck a fat one this week.

And Val, I think you should send what your heart is content with. That's all part of the fun.

If anyone's curious, I sent a homemade card and 4 Valentines candies (like a heart-shaped Snickers),haha.

oh, me too! I want to give some lovin' to a woman. Oddly, at 24 and even though I've dated extenstively, I've only had 2 valentines. I want me a cool consu-tine.

Yeahhh... mine's not going out until Monday too. Sorry [Valentine's name]! I still wuv you.

I ended up finding more to put in. Now I need stamps.
HOWEVER! Since you've told us what you're putting in, won't your Valentine know who you are now???

I send a mean Valentine, lemme tell ya. It's good.

Wait, are these Valentines supposed to be secret? I don't really see how that's possible...

I just re-read Tophy's original post. I think the intention is to keep it a secret UNTIL the person receives the valentine. So, no need to try to hide your identity in the actual valentine.

Haha, you are correct. Like a Secret Santa, you might want to tell the person who you are when they get the stuff, haha.

Opps. OH, WELL.

I don't understand how this is a word game... can this please be moved back to the regular board? I'ma try to sort this out, haha.

The regular board is gone now. It has to go in a category. What category would you have picked had it been a consumating conversation? Cause I used the same ones as consumating does.
