Sign-Ups Part II(B)
Hello all, and welcome to bleach_exchange's Valentine's Day Exchange~! Sorry it took me so long to get everything together and sorted out, but as Piru-tan said, I've been having some problems on my end, and though things aren't all taken care of, it's nothing to worry ourselves over.
Now let's see how quickly you'll all get annoyed with my upbeat and annoying attitude! ^^- To start things off with a bang, I may as well introduce myself. My name is Jamie, and you may all call me Jamie-sama if you so wish of it~ ^o^ I like long walks on the beach, candle-lit dinners, and a romantic night out to the movies. My personal phone number is--- okay, I guess I'll stop there. Anyways, it's a pleasure to meet you all, and hopefully we'll have another successful exchange~! I had very few people to replace last exchange, and hopefully we'll all be good little girls and boys and carry on this new yet pleasant tradition.
First of all, I needn't stress this enough, nor should Piru-san, but this exchange will be limited to fanfiction, fanart, fancomics, and AMVs ONLY. Everything must be ROMANCE-RELATED. After all, it's Valentine's Day~! Love is needed for this special time of the year. Especially for all us fangirls/fanboys who don't have a special someone this year. No graphics involved this time. Sorry, dears.
Also, please, please don't request something that you aren't willing to do yourself. This will make it uneccessarily hard for me, as a first time exchange-coordinator, to work things out. Basically, I'm pulling out my pimp hat, cabbie hat, and my dominatrix hat, and one will be yaoi, yuri, and het. I'm sorting all your names out, writing them on pieces of paper, and assigning you all the good ol' fashioned way. Okay, so a little more thought will go into it than that. Not much though. >>;
Now, before I move on to rules and whatnot, a run-over of the basics was provided by Piru-tan at Sign-Ups Part I, and also Sign-Ups Part II (A). This covers the basic expectations of gifts. (Fics must be at least 500 words long, art must be at least inked for a polished look, or at least not-sketchy. A nice, shaded, polished pencil-drawing would be just dandy. Fan-comics should be at least the equivalent of one page of manga, and the text must be relevant to the pictures. AMVs should emphasize the pairing/threesome and probably be slightly romantic.)

1. Join this community here if you haven't already~
2. Copy-and-paste the form following these rules into a comment to this post (if you haven't already commented here), and answer everything as honestly/carefully as possible. Remember, I'll be using this to pair you with your Secret Admirer, so if something goes awry, it probably won't be my fault. Sign-ups will close on January 22nd. That gives you a little over half a week to sign-up.
3. Check your mail sometime between January 23rd and the 25th, and I'll have e-mailed you at the e-mail address provided in your sign-up form with the Livejournal user you're to create a gift for. My e-mail address is skeptix_84_77@yahoo.com. Add me to your address book, or at least make sure I'm on your safe list so I don't get spam-filtered or some such nonsense~
4. Come back and check this post (or the post linked above, where some of you applied) to see what your assignment is. Look for the person whose username you were e-mailed, and see what s/he wanted. If necessary, you can leave anonymous comments to ask them questions about how they want it, but keep it polite and clean, and don't hint too much at what you're doing~! Try not to do anything that would give away who you are~ Like how I always add tildes to the end of some of my sentences? Not many people do that. It'd be a dead give-away. XD;
5. Get working on their gift(s)!! Do your absolute best, because what did we learn when watching Bambi as children? Treat others like you want to be treated~ ♥ If you want A-class gifts, you better give A-class gifts. Or, yanno, at least do your best? ♥
6. Starting on February 11th (A Sunday), the community will be opened for all members to post the gift they made. Posting guidelines will follow these rules and the sign-up form. Once you post your gift, check back often to see if your own has been posted~!
7. Lastly, be kind, curteous, and thankful for your gift. All of us will (hopefully~!) be working very hard to make a great gift, so you better like it, or else! >>; I josh~ Feel free to comment on others' gift!posts~! It's always nice to recieve praise, and sometimes even constructive criticism. ♥♥
