svmadelyn at Valentine's Day Game (in eight years, no, I never did come up with a better name for this.)Hey all - last year people sent over 10K words worth of love to this thing, and I think that's an effort well worth repeating.
This is the EIGHTH Valentine's Day Game, and yours truly has finally, finally gotten smarter about how to run this. Well, that, and google has come up with tools to make me not go blind coding, so we're going to do it a bit differently this year.
The Valentine's Game 411:
You have a little over two weeks, until Wednesday, February 12th, to send me your submissions.
It's not time-consuming at all, and here's what you do:
♥ Pick 1-14 people in fandom, and come up with a word or a phrase or short sentence to describe them (or hey, make icons like people have done in the past, do whatever you want, I'll go with it), or just say something about why you like them/enjoy reading them/why you're happy they're around. (If you're in hockey fandom and you want to send Valentines like these going around, that's totally fine and I can include them!)
♥ Put in the names/comments for your Valentines on this googleform, and I will compile a great, huge list of what everyone's sent to me and post it on Valentine's Day. It's like a Secret Admirer/Valentine's Party and I will not be posting or telling anyone who sent me what at all. For example, if I were to get four separate comments describing Random Internet User, I'd just put all of the words/phrases in a list and post them for each Internet user that someone sent me phrases on. Here are the past years so you can see it in action.
...make sense? Sound like fun? If so, go fill out that form - you do NOT have to have 14 people; just fill out however many people you want, but please be sure to follow the instructions at the top of the form to make it easier for me to code this.
Feel free to spread the word--it might get some people aware that they can spread some love in your direction and YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHO and thus FEEL LIKE BEING EVEN NICER TO EVERYONE FOR LIKE, A WHOLE DAY!
Rules! (Because everything must have rules, even V-Day projects)
1) The google form will close sometime on February 12th. So fill it out, you know. Before then.
2) If for some reason you do not get love in this post? Not my fault, as I just compile. I? Am so the Compiling Girl. You will need to blame your various f-lists for not giving a shout-out to the majesty that is you.
This is about making people *you* like happy, about giving them something to smile and feel fuzzy about. It's not intended to make anyone feel left out, but it comes with the territory and that is something I hope everybody understands and is at peace with. <3
IN CONCLUSION: SEND ME THINGS.
