It’s time for the Secret Shoggoth again, that special time of year when we trade tribaubles to grow as a community.
Yog-Sothoth.com Secret Shoggoth VI.
Here’s how it works:
Send me a private message that includes: Your name and your address as well as where you are willing to ship.
There are plenty of Yoggies around, so if you don’t want to send something over any oceans or can’t afford it, that’s fine.
Then, buy a gift, the price ought to be $20-25US or so. If you want to wait to see who you get then that’s fine but the closer to December we get the worse the shipping time becomes.
On Nov 27th or so, I’ll assign you someone to gift and send you their address.
Also, on the (to be announced) I’ll need some people and the chatroom so we can roll to see who gets who, think of it as rolling on the treasure table from the old DMG.
As soon as you get your assigned shoggee, send them a gift, the gift should arrive by Dec 15th.
If for some reason something goes wrong let me know.
Rules:
Yes, you all know these but check them anyway, there might be a test.
1. Gifts ought to cost around $20-25 USD.
2. The $20-25 is before shipping, so as cool as it is to send a life sized bronze Star Spawn statue, you might want to look for something lighter.
3. The gifts ought to arrive by Dec 15. If there is a problem with this, let me know.
3a. If you can get a shipping number, that’s cool. You don’t have to but it will make any kind of trouble more avoidable.
4. If for some reason the gift won’t arrive or something goes wrong. Contact me immediately.
5. You must have been a member of Yog before I posted this. Ahem: You must have been a member of Yog before October 1st.
NEW THING
Please post in the “Thank You Secret Shoggoth VI” thread when you get your package so your Shoggoth knows you have your gift and I can add your name on my list of good shoggoths.
You guys are better than this but let’s just put it out there.
6. Keep it clean and legal, no shipping guns to Britain or lock picks to Canada. Or midget-shoggoth porn to anyone.
7. For the love of Cthulhu, contact me if something goes wrong. Again, the sooner I hear from someone the sooner I can fix things.
8. There’s precious little anyone can do to you if you don’t send a gift. But we’re Yoggies and above that kind of thing.
Thoughts:
Let’s assume that everyone already has their copies of Uttati Asfet and the Bermuda Triangle.
You might want to send your real name along unless you want a package showing up for some dude named Ten_Inch_Psudopod.
You may want to post a quick idea roll about what you want - but you have no promises as to what you’ll get. You may also want to post about what you have, if say you already own every monograph, then you’d want to mention that so you don’t get another copy of The Abby to adorn your Dark Ages shelf with.
Also, the gifts don’t have to have anything to do with Cthulhu, I understand many people love tea and Doctor Who, though you might want to look into things your shogee likes.
We’ve had quite a few people go above and beyond, sending gifts to other Yoggies, friends, people they worked on a project with or just to Paul because he makes this all possible. If this comes up, send me a message and I will check if it’s okay with them for me to tell you their address.
