Yeah, I get it, same answer though, our books would disappear and we would have nothing to hold on to ourselves. The equal amount of books to people is what makes the idea work.
*Look, I'm not going to be a stick in the mud and hold this shit up if it's the only thing stopping it from happening. So unless we find a solution sooner than later I'll pull out. Could have spent that $22 on fucking beer, damnit.

There's no way Alts and I would ever see our books again.
-
YEah, I was maggotted in Thailand when I did mine.
Even when drunk I still found it boring. Funny though, I love snorkeling.

Vuvuzela death camps.
Wake up sheeple.

Wow, contribute more.

I thought that Weapon was of Indian descent.
[Cue DAO telling us that Indians are Arabs....]

Yeah I got my license but it didn't interest me enough to make a habit of it. Many other things I'd prefer to spend my time money on. Horses for courses.

the deal is that everyone buys a book each and sends it to the next person on the list. So as you send one book off, you get another book sent to you and we continue the process until your own book does the full circle and makes it back to you full of pieces. This means that everyone has the cost of buying a book and there is less chance some one will tax a book as they're going to get their own back anyway.
So you should only ever have to send to one person and receive from one other person the whole time.
Only problem with that is one person in the US gets lumped with the cost of sending all the books overseas. That's the pickle we're trying to work out now.
-
Sorry, did we work out a way so that Butters isn't left footing the whole bill for sending international?
-
I don't mind about 4-5 people in the US having my address if that helps share the pain. Also if two peeps want to send their books at the same time that may work out ok as well.
So am I supposed to be sending to Alts now, going off that list up there?

-
Mmm, I think so..., yes.

Knit shit on to something.
I thought it was a pretty cool laugh when it first came out.
Unfortunately they weren't joking.

I think it's a bit naive to think that just because you show interest you're in. GOGP said at the get go that he wasn't aiming this at learners and given this is his idea he gets to call the shots. I also don't see it as upping the talent to try and sell the idea either, it's getting things laid right so the plan comes off as desired.
IF it makes you feel any better I don't expect to have my number called and all that means is that I gotta lift my game. That's how the graff game is played mate, you either got the skills or you got practice to do. Pretty fair and objective stuff, really.

So if I hypothetically purchased a CD, retained the receipt but damaged/lost/left the CD in parents garage on the other side of the country, would it be considered a breach of the law if I hypothetically went on to a torrent site and DL'd the same CD?
-
Without trying to be too presumptuous I think it's safe to say that
GOGP
Indica
Stotch
Nover
Alts
are all in as we already know they make the grade. The rest of should probably have to qualify. That's just my opinion, happy to be pulled in to line on it though.
-
BBs move in a circle so you're always going to be sending to the same person and receiving from the same person (kind of like that human centipede movie). I can live with it as I live pretty much isolated from the rest of the world and you're all welcome to my personality and bank account. Others may have a problem with it though.
The issue of theft is dealt with under the rule that if person A doesn't send on Person D's book, then whoever has Person A's book sends it to person D to make up for the loss. Secondly, why would you gank some one else's book when you have one coming to you anyway?
I know there are dickheads out there that will try and pull shit, but hey, you got to take risks if you want to achieve something. That's life, nothing ventured nothing gained.
-
Then we get back to the issue of having to pass out your address to 15 different people.
-
Am I a tictac? cool
Seriously though, the video is pretty awesome...
No, the video was shit, deal with it.
-
Fuck it, why don't we have a qualifying process whilst we iron out the other details?
Here's a random selection of some stuff, some finished some unfinished.

It's GOGP's thread and idea so I guess it's his call who makes it in.

For the record I am christo-f (hoping that gives me credibility!!)
-
Including Indica that makes about 13 and I think if we cap it at that it should be a good size.
Of course if we get heads like Seen, Rime, Mek, Can2, etc., offering to join we might make an exception ;)
*Edit, possibly more people in the UK and Aust. might be worthwhile as it makes the expense of sending it here more rational.
-
Too many people will also stretch the timeline out as to when you get your book back.
Need to have a balance between a good amount of people enough to make it worthwhile but not so many that you don't see the book for 10 months and you lose track of it after 5 anyway.

Alright, I'm just going to send it and hope for the best. Nothing ventured nothing gained.
Alts, you want to swap with each other first or just send State side?
