Title: Annual Fort Holders Swap ::: SIGN UP :::
Description: lets make them jealous!!!


zzz - March 20, 2008 02:01 PM (GMT)
Since we have many newbies it might be useful to remind you that this swap is reserved ONLY for those who aren’t going on BookCrossing Convention in London, April 18-20! (this means we're starting 18th but most likely this will be huge swap so please don't be reluctant if you have obligations that weekend)
Purpose of this swap is, of course to have fun but even more to make those who are going on Convention incredibly jealous for not playing. Therefore book we offer should be very good and very popular and if it possible on wishlists of Convention participants :evil:

KathyB - March 20, 2008 02:04 PM (GMT)
Me please!

Xeyra - March 20, 2008 02:07 PM (GMT)
Me!!! Damn, I'm burying myself in swaps lately.

bluecat07 - March 20, 2008 02:08 PM (GMT)
Me, too! :D

Amberkatze - March 20, 2008 02:10 PM (GMT)
Me too!

Marlene - March 20, 2008 02:11 PM (GMT)
Yep please

GateGypsy - March 20, 2008 04:41 PM (GMT)
Make me official! :bananacheer:

cheesygiraffe - March 20, 2008 05:03 PM (GMT)
Okay put me down as a maybe. I take my mom to the airport on the 19th. So I won't be able to play too much the 18th or 19th but the 20th I will be free. ;)

msjoanna - March 20, 2008 05:11 PM (GMT)
Put me down as a maybe, depending on how big the swap is and how up to date I am with owed TBRs.

I probably won't be available at all from April 18 until at least midday and likely evening April 21. But if it looks like a big swap, that should be no problem...

noumena12 - March 20, 2008 07:03 PM (GMT)
I get to play in my first fort holders swap. But for the record, I plan on being in New Zealand for the 2009 swap!

rootmartin - March 20, 2008 07:12 PM (GMT)
I'm in!

xallroyx - March 20, 2008 07:30 PM (GMT)
Oh of course I have to play in this one!

CheriePie - March 20, 2008 09:55 PM (GMT)
Hmmm, I thought I already signed up for this in the other thread, but maybe I'm just confused as I don't see me in the list above. :blink:

So.... since this is the first year I'm not going to the convention since I started hanging out with y'all 2+ years ago, then go ahead and add me baby!! :bananadance:


ETA - okay I see it now, the other was just an interest thread, to gauge if there was interest. My bad. :doh:

boomda181 - March 20, 2008 10:04 PM (GMT)
This sounds fantastic! Sign me up, please!! :bananadance:

Marlene - March 20, 2008 10:21 PM (GMT)
Hey zzz. If we have to find wish list books of the convention go-ers , why not give us a list of who are going there. :evil:

boogal - March 20, 2008 10:22 PM (GMT)
Me too, please.

Me too! :giggle:

A maybe for me - as long as I can find a good book. And I agree, we need to know who's going to the convention if we're to make them jealous. :D

luckaye - March 20, 2008 11:21 PM (GMT)
Please add me to the list!

Is that so :angry: Why don't you browse by yourself through the thread YOU POSTED about convention?
All I can do is provide you a link
you LazyDuchwoman :whip:

And of course your book doesn't have to be on their WLs. Naturally it's great if it's possible but I'm sure there are lots of other great books they will add on wish lists after this swap :whistle: So please don't stress yourself with such things :rolleyes:

lmn60 - March 21, 2008 12:08 AM (GMT)
OK... I'm up for it - especially as I won't be able to play next year when I plan to be in New Zealand for the convention :rolleyes: !

But in my need to be a 'good' swap participant... I have a book I want to offer that is on lots of wishlists - just no-one at the convention's that I can see... I take your last remark to mean that that's OK, zzz.

Also, I also really didn't like this book... just a matter of personal tastes. I've never offered a book that I actually didn't like in a Swap before... is there an etiquette to this? I am assuming that just because I didn't like a particularly popular book, doesn't mean another one of you will - and that it's OK to offer it... but I am having an insecure moment and just want to confirm that that's right!

I'm aware this is probably a Dorothy Dixer - but thought I'd check it out.

OK.. off to post zzz's Indecisive book for March '09! :shedevil:

(Only joshing with you, Milan... truly... you can trust me.... really.... :angel:)

elsi - March 21, 2008 01:50 AM (GMT)
I'd like to play.

Does that mean someone is going to post a list of the Convention participants so we can check their wish lists?

That link didn't work for me - if it's the thread in meetings forum - there's 8 pages! Count me as a lazykiwiwoman cos I'm not going through it to see who's going to the convention. :wacko:

azuki - March 21, 2008 03:50 AM (GMT)
#18 is me!! :lol: Lucky Number!

zzz - March 21, 2008 08:30 AM (GMT)
I already said it's NOT important but if you insist (and you do) here is the OFFICIAL LIST OF ATTENDEES FOR THE CONVENTION

Marlene - March 21, 2008 09:08 AM (GMT)
wth lazydutchwoman.
I love that cause it is so true!!! :rofl:

Well I am going to try to find just a great book, if it is not on there wish list they might add it. or a book which is already on lots of wish lists.


zzz I think they just want to pester,tease those conventioners. :rolleyes:

SciFisstrs - March 24, 2008 06:51 AM (GMT)
Me please :)
Just send me a reminder that damn real life gets in the way at times.

redhot-brat - March 24, 2008 08:02 AM (GMT)
Me too please - This and the raiding bookshelves are my two fave swaps. :bananadance:

TITurtle1 - March 25, 2008 06:47 PM (GMT)

zzz - March 25, 2008 09:18 PM (GMT)
Everyone should be on the list.
Just wanted to inform you that I'll be absent for a few days. I hope there'll be much more folks to add. (I know there is more than enough time to sign up).

I've picked my book as well. It's not tbr, it IS on several wishlists (few will regret for not playing) and FYI it's NOT registered yet :razz:

Marlene - March 28, 2008 12:57 PM (GMT)
do you think I am so crazy I am going to check people's shelves. :blink: :lol:

Hmm I might remove my book for this swap from my shelf. :whistle:

I do look at wish lists but not at shelves. :rolleyes:

It's okay Marlene. I really like that avatar cause that's how I feel most of the time. Scarey! :giggle: It does wake one up quickly when you look at it though doesn't it! :D
