Hello Everyone! =)
Sometimes I like a challenging swap, don't you? =)
This swap is way different from your regular run of the mill postcard swaps here on swap-bot! This swap requires you to send some postcards and "lose" some postcards! =D This is an experimental swap to see what a person will do when they find one of our lost postcards.
This swap requires a total of 10 total postcards and some effort on your part, if this is too many postcards for you, then this is not the swap for you. Please make sure to read all the guidelines before you join this swap
If this swap works out as planned, I would like to make it a monthly swap. ! =)
Currently this swap is for USA only.. the reason for this at the moment is because this swap is an experiment to see how it goes and if it works the way I hope it will.. and because from the USA a postcard costs over a $1.00 to send overseas compared to $0.39 cents to send within the USA. If this swap goes as planned.. I will make an international version in the future. So please hang tight. =D
About This Swap:
You will have 2 weeks to complete this swap.
In this swap you will have 5 partners to send too.
You will get 10 postcards.. can be store bought or nicely handmade.
You you will send each of your partners one of the postcards like normal so they have something to rate you on.
This is the most important part: For the second set of postcards you will address them to your partner like normal ( except only using their first name and first initial of their last name ) and add a stamp it. You will also add the following information on the left side of the post card:
- Date
- The Following Note: Hello, I am lost, can you please drop me in the mailbox so that I may find my way home? Thank you.
- Then The Following: Would you like to leave a note or say hello? =)
- Leave a space for them to write in.
At the bottom write your Swap-Bot Username and the Name of this swap.
It should look like this (bigger version in the comments):
Last step, "lose" your postcards! How do you do that? While you are out shopping, getting gas, at the coffee shop, out to eat, etc etc. Place the postcard insight to people so someone will find it and hopefully send it home. =)
Please post a comment below when you have lost your postcards.
Please post a comment below if/when you receive the lost postcard, letting us know you got it! Please also post the note from the stranger that sent it if there is one.
A Few More Things:
This swap is USA ONLY
I have set a rating for this swap at 4.99. And open to new swappers.
You will have a total of 10 postcards for this swap. 5 to send right away to your partners and 5 to lose.
Please include your Swap-Bot User Name and Swap-Bot Swap Name on the bottom of the postcard.
You have 2 weeks to send and *"lose" your postcards. Mark this swap sent, once you have done both steps of sending and loosing.
This swap takes some effort to complete, if you think you can not complete it, please don't join as it wouldn't be fair to the rest of the participating swappers.
Rating:
Make sure to rate your partner once you receive the postcard they send you. The "lost" one is a bonus, as there is a chance it may not ever get to you.
If your partner followed the guidelines of this swap and it was sent out on time, please rate them a 5. Hearts are completely up to you Γ’β’Β₯
Last But Not Least
I will be going thru all swap participant's profile before assigning partners to make sure they have at least a 4.99 rating or higher. If they are new to swap bot, I will be checking on their profiles as well.
I have the right to ban anyone from this swap due to no sends, unexplained 1's or 3's or due to having a rating less than 4.99
I can angel if necessary, but hopefully, I won't have too. Γ’β’Β₯
If you have any questions, please feel free to IM me @iamred
Happy Swapping! =D
