View Full Version : Send SP a Postcard!
Taluntain Sat, 24th Aug '02, 7:35pm Going on a holiday somewhere you send postcards from? Well, here's you latest mission. From now on, buy one more and send it to SP!
As you can see in this thread ( http://www.sorcerers.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=7;t=002215 ), Bel hinted that he might be the one doing the collection, but I only mailed him now so I'm not sure yet. Stay tuned for the address to send to and more details. If anyone has any questions, out with them!
Once we get a postcard, it'll be scanned and put online in a gallery here, so we should have postcards from the whole world in no time. Or that's the idea, anyway. :D

Abyssal Knight Sun, 25th Aug '02, 4:42am Could we just send a postcard from our house too?
Taluntain Sun, 25th Aug '02, 9:48am Everyone seems to want to do that, so who am I to argue. :D
Anyway, that'll be a good start since the holidays are mostly over for everyone this year.
Just waiting for Sprite to post her address now.
Sprite Sun, 25th Aug '02, 3:04pm Yes, I am truly hard-core now: posting my address on the Internet :eek:
Anyway, please send your SP postcards to:
912 Briar Hill Avenue
Toronto, Ontario
M6B 1M2
Canada
Any cards received will be scanned and posted here ASAP.
[Edit #2: You don't need to have a person's name on a postcard to get it delivered in Canada. Just the address is fine. If you're feeling friendly and want to add a name too, why not just address it to "Sorcerer's Place"? Consider my house the SP embassy in Canada. ;) ]
[Edit #1: Taluntain reminded me to add, sign any postcards you send with your board name please!]

Taluntain Sun, 25th Aug '02, 4:41pm There we go... Once we get stickies I'll nail this post in here.
Aikanaro Tue, 27th Aug '02, 10:58am Next time I go on holidays, there's no such thing as a postcard where I live. Nothing to put on them :)
Shralp Wed, 28th Aug '02, 4:17pm Bump.
Plus I'm really, really gonna have to look for a perfect one for youse guys from Washington, DC.
SlimShogun Mon, 2nd Sep '02, 5:00am Try to pick one which doesn't depict our nation's capital as residing in an area where the per-capita murder rate is one of the highest in our country...
Yerril Mon, 2nd Sep '02, 10:01am Whooopee! SP postcards!
Prepare to get one from Cologne, you lucky people!
Can we write humorous messages on the back?
Taluntain Mon, 2nd Sep '02, 12:56pm Well, duh. Make it interesting. :D
Sprite Wed, 18th Sep '02, 11:46pm No postcards yet! I am now so depressed I can't even look in the mailbox- I feel like Charlie Brown on Valentine's day. :(
I updated the post with my address to the effect that you don't need to address the postcard to me, specifically- just put the address on the postcard, and a suitable stamp of course, preferably an interesting one since I'm a stamp-geek. :)
Mollusken Thu, 19th Sep '02, 8:07am I completely forgot it, and I think everyone else did to.

Taluntain Thu, 19th Sep '02, 11:50am I'll make it a sticky once UBB finally gets them.
8people Thu, 19th Sep '02, 11:57am We'll send a postcard Sprite! (8people, Frosty and Perhaps even BlackCat!)
We'll try and get a nice funny one! :roll:
Frostbite Thu, 19th Sep '02, 11:58am Yeah! We'll send you one Sprite, with nice pictures and all!
Wow!
:wave:
Frosty
(Postcard Mania! :D )
Aziraphale Fri, 20th Sep '02, 11:36am I just sent one from Singapour :D Kinda boring but it's the thought that counts, yeah?
I'll maybe send from Australia if your lucky :D
Eze Sat, 21st Sep '02, 5:49pm Can i draw a postcard myself? Just asking. I am little bit confused.
Tiamat Mon, 23rd Sep '02, 5:40pm Okay, SP is collecting postcards. Cool. Tell me WHY, and I'll be glad to contribute. To show where our addicts go or something?
Mathetais Mon, 23rd Sep '02, 7:39pm Any one here see the movie Amelie?
With the Gnome traveling all over the world?
We could take pictures of Boo from all over the country.
Boo in front of the Sears Tower (I could submit that), Boo at the Pentagon ... Boo at the Crazy Horse Saloon ...
Sprite Mon, 23rd Sep '02, 10:43pm Ezellohar - Sure you can draw a postcard, or write the address on the back of a photograph and stamp it, or whatever you like. The Canadian post office will deliver anything. A friend of mine once successfully mailed a stamped coconut to a girl he wanted to impress (no, it didn't work, but *I* was impressed, plus I had fun helping him shave it to make the stamp stick). The only limitation is what will fit in my scanner so we can show it to the rest of SP. :)
Shralp Tue, 24th Sep '02, 2:24pm Dear SP:
Just arrived in sunny southern Croatia. Met Extremist at the airport, and we're off to the nearest bar. I think he plans to get me drunk and replace all my dollars with Euros. That's ok. They have pretty bridges on them. Extremist is exactly how you imagined him: little and orange with a tiny horned helmet. Surprisingly, he was wearing an "I (heart) George W." shirt, but I think he meant George Washington. Wish you were all here (except Damona).
XOXO,
Shralp
Sprite Tue, 24th Sep '02, 10:17pm Got the first postcard today! Does Oblate get some kind of house points for being first? We're scanning it and will send to Tal very soon. Thanks! :wave:
Oblate Tue, 24th Sep '02, 11:41pm :D
I won the race.
Thanks for telling me, because i wasn't sure it would find it's way.
:p
Mollusken Fri, 27th Sep '02, 2:27pm Will you scan both sides? Just want to know if it is important to write something funny on it :) .
Gnolyn Lochbreaker Fri, 27th Sep '02, 2:42pm Yep :) We'll scan in both sides of the post card as long as there's something to scan. And if you're not feeling very witty at the time, just a greeting is okay too ;)
Taluntain Fri, 27th Sep '02, 11:18pm Check the first one at http://www.sorcerers.net/Community/Boards/cards.htm ;)
Nobleman Sat, 28th Sep '02, 12:58am fan-freaking-tastic.
This really ties your Boards together Tal.
Good Call Oblate.
Frostbite Mon, 30th Sep '02, 7:35pm I need to buy some stamps, and a decent looking postcard. Probably go otu to town tonight.
Though mind you, nothing really interesting happens in my small town.
Ah well, what the hell
Frosty
(going global)
PS. Nice one Oblate :cool:
Oblate Tue, 1st Oct '02, 7:48pm Where are the other postcards? My postcard feels lonely.
Sprite Tue, 1st Oct '02, 9:16pm We got one today, from Aziraphale, which we are about to scan and send in. So yours won't be lonely for long, Oblate!
Frostbite Mon, 14th Oct '02, 1:19pm Has mine arrived yet?
I'm not sure how long it takes for mail to get from the Uk to Canada...
Frosty ;)
Sprite Wed, 16th Oct '02, 3:14pm Not yet, sorry. All the ones we've received are up on SP already: from Aziraphale, Zorac and Oblate.
