2012 Roaming Wire: Round III!
Hello, hello, here it is the third round of roaming wire. If you’re just joining my name is Krista DeSelms known as Upsided0wnducks on the forums. I’m the host of our roaming wire ‘round here which I absolutely love doing and love all the people here on rth for making it so much fun to host!
The first round we did we had 17 people and it took us just under 7 months to return to me. On average less than 12 days per person!
The second round we did we had 19 people sign up, only one drop out and we still got this one squared away in under 7 months! On average less than 12 days per person again! Great job everyone! I haven’t gotten my box from Chris yet but she’s got good reason and I’ll post pictures of her wrap as soon as she feels up to finishing it.
Onto the juicy stuff
PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE JOINING THE GAME!!!
As moderator I start the game, I send a finished wrap and three unwrapped cab to the first person, they in turn keep the finished wrap, wrap one of the three unwrapped cabs then send their finished wrap and three of their own cabs onto the next person. This goes on until it gets back to the last person on the list, me!
*Cabs tend to build up during the game as people seem to add more than they receive, please observe the rule that you send at least as many cabs as your received no matter how many you take out, please at least replace them!!!*
To keep this moving there is a time limit, once you get your package you have 14 days, two weeks that is, to wrap it and get it in the mail to the next person!
To keep things going I’ll have our list be flexible. Before the person who’s ready to send their wrapped and unwrapped cabs sends them the next person in line is to be contacted first to make sure they’re ready and have time to wrap and send the next package. If they don’t, they’ll move into the on deck position and go to the next person up.
Once you’re received your package please photograph the wrap sent to you and post pictures on the thread so everyone can ooo and ahhh at them. Give credit to those who wrapped it and say thank you!
This is a game for only wire wrapping, please stick to that.
Please try your hardest to make the wraps nice and neat so that everyone feels they got a nice quality piece.
Please make sure the stones you send are cabochons and only natural stones.
Please send a note with the package saying what all the stones are so people know what they’re getting!
Recap:
• PM me (Krista DeSelms/Upsided0wnducks) that you want to be in the game with your name and address. (I swear I will not spam you, or give your addresses to anyone ever except the person sending you the finished wrap and cab.) If you have a preference of where in the list you’d like to be (beginning, middle, end or a certain month you know you’ll have time) let me know that too and I’ll do my best to accommodate.
****If you played last round I do not need your address!****
• Receive your new pendant and unwrapped cabs.
• Wrap one of the cabs and find/make/buy beautiful replacement cabs to send within your 14 day period.
• Message me (Krista DeSelms/Upsided0wnducks) that you’re ready to send your package and I’ll give you the name and address of your recipient.
• Mail package.
• Then it starts all over again!
Please voice any concerns or questions and I’ll do my best to remedy and answer!
When we get at least 10 people on the list I’ll send out the first package!
