This is it, guys!!

[Blaizekit]

Okay, so I got everyone to join here because I quickly realized a necessity for us to talk to one another in some way other than PM.

Why?

Well I said I was going to apply for Community Spotlight, but I kind of went behind everyone's back and did it right after I said I was going to. xd

Here's what I sent:

Please consider The Daffodil Movement 2009 for your Community Spotlight.

This is the fourth annual Daffodil Movement for cancer awareness. The movement involves wearing a daffodil bouquet through the month of April, originally in support of VO after his father died in 2006, but it has become an event to spread awareness and honor the all the survivors and the fallen. The original Daffodil Movement was linked to by VO in his own signature.

This is the second year that I have organized the movement, and this year I've taken a lot of time and effort to make the event fun but informative.^^

The official event/contests run from April 1-25 but we intend to advertise and build up teams throughout the month of March. That is why we chose now to appeal for the O-So-Glorious Spotlight^^

Thank you for your consideration!

And, this morning, I recieved this reply!

Hi Blaizekit,

Thank you for sending this info and for choosing Community Spotlight, this is great! We would love to feature your event. It seems like it might be good to promote this during the last week or two of March to give people a chance to participate prior to April 1st. What do you think? We could do it Sat, March 21st or 28th OR Wed, March 25th.

Thanks,
Community Spotlight

And the conversation soforth....

The 21st sounds good. The sooner the better, I say^^

Thank you so much!! heart

Sure thing! If you'd like it earlier than that, we can do it, no problem. Choose a Wednesday or Saturday that you like and I'll queue it up for you.

Is it okay if we do the 14th? OMG I'm like so psyched right now.

Absolutely, you got it! Just be prepared for a lot of traffic, PMs, and friend requests once the spotlight goes out. It can be a bit crazy, but the exposure will be awesome!

Thank you so much! Bring it on! I was born ready. >D

Awesome! You're so welcome!!

------------

I don't need to tell you that this is a SUPER MEGA AWESOME BIG HAPPY JOY.

Once again, our scheduled date is March 14. Please don't tell anyone about this!! I want it to be a great surprise!!

In light of this, I decided to make this guild. We are going to need to be able to communicate with each other easily and without others around.

As Community said, this is going to cause us to have a lot of traffic, and a lot of work to do. I understand completely if you can't assist in all things, I only ask that you help as much as you can.

Random thoughts~~~

-Don't be shy about accessing the mule. Just post on this guild to work it out so there is no confusion about who is doing what.

-These are the procedures, duties that you can take up:

>Accepting trades. Trades of yellow items are for the mule to wear and each person can freely change the mule's clothes anytime they feel like it. Trades of raw daffodils are against the rules but we can't really fight it no matter how bold we make the print, so accept them and sell the daffodils on the market, pricing is up to you completely. Trades of other non yellow, non daffodil items should be accepted and whatever items should be sold. Trades sent to us should be canceled unless it is clear by its title that they are requesting a bouquet. If they are, give them one.

>Accepting PMs. I am going to edit the thread to make it very, very, very clear that all PMs have to be labeled. Delete any no subject PMs you see. Our PM box is only so big so we have to clean it out as quickly as possible to avoid lost PMs. Yellow wall entries: only I can edit the yellow wall, but you can put entries/stories in the journal. To do this, create a new entry in TDM's journal and make the subject the name of the person it's dedicated to. On the first line, put "Sent in by: (username)" and from there copy and paste their dedication into it. There are already a couple of them in the journal so you can see. From there, post in the Yellow Wall thread that you did this and the names of the people you did, that way we won't accidentally do something twice. Be sure to delete any and all PMs you process. After that I will add their names to the Wall and link their name to a journal entry. Accepting Thank You PMs: I will make a thank-you thread on the guild and if you find a thanks particularly heartfelt and you want everyone to see it, post it there, then delete the PM. If you encounter a question: answer it. If it is something you feel can't be answered/needs a consensus, either forward it to me or post it here in the guild, or both.

>Accepting Friend Requests: Accept any and all friend requests.

>Profile Comments: delete any comments that contain spam, ESPECIALLY spammy links that lead to phishing sites. Page stretchers are also a definite delete. Advertisements are not so nice either, use your judgement.

>In case of emergency: Things do happen, especially when your internet is borrowed from your neighbor. I also have a court date on the 16th because my dad is finalizing his divorce. These and other unforseen instances requires me to think of what we can do if something arises. Obviously if my connection dies, I'll quickly begin to go to school with Queenie and stay at the University all day. rofl But, if anything happens and I can't/if I can't be here, Queenie, Xi, and Axel are the ones to talk to. They can call me and get my word on anything going on, and worse to worst I will let them get into my account.

Oh wow! The 14th already =D
It's awesome Gaia is so enthusiastic as well!
*hypers*

Thanks for clearing up what has to be done and in what way ^^ I was planning to ask about it soon, so that saves some trouble =D.

Je pense à toi, où que tu sois.
Que nos soucis s'envolent
et que nos coeurs fusionnent.
Le moment est venu de réaliser ce voeu.
Et qui sait ?

Ahhh!! *bounces insanely* The only people who know about it that are not in the mods are Xi and Axel, and that's because I couldn't contain myself when I first got it. rofl

But yes. Trying very hard to make this work right, I have detailed most of what I can think of. If I'm missing something, it'll come to light fairly quickly I'm sure.

And, who knew that Community has such a bright personality? xd

I have, so far. Sometimes the chances of them seeing it will be small so it's up to you.

Joy of joys! Oh, rapturous day! Methinks I may even attempt to write a poem for the thread, should that be acceptable. ^.^ SPOTLIGHT, HO!

Acceptable! Of course! And refreshments, you shouldn't have! *noms on York Peppermint Patties* (for some reason it's the first thing I think of when I hear the word refreshment. xd )
