It's over! feel free to post what you thought about it here!

Also, feel free to vote in the polls located above this post!

I made the title...that because I don't to have a bunch of panicking people that are randomly swapping...

The swap will begin on February 24th and end on February 25th at midnight.

If anyone wants to have their avatar randomly swapped, PM me...I'll shuffle your Avatars and usernames randomly(using 2 dice).

If you however want to do a 2 way swap with someone...talk to the person about swapping...and then PM me of who you will be swapping with...

If anyone has any question's simply post them here...I'll be glad to answer them.

Here's the list of participants in the event (if you don't see your name on the list, simply leave a message in this thread)

I like the idea in theory, but it seems complicated. What if all 500,000 members showed up??

Impossible. There's only 152,371 users at the moment.31.gif

I have something else to point out here: since everyone's custom av is hosted on ST, you shouldn't have to save the avatar of the person you're swapping with. Just go into your profile, find out the filename of your avatar, and tell the person you're swapping with.

EDIT: Damn, that won't work... It's a dropdown menu featuring only the defaults and your most recent. Oh well. You will have to save and reupload then.

(I still say we should reenable offsite avatar hosting)


If you always take the same road, you will never see anything new.
If you can read this, you deserve a cookie.

Ah well I'm sure that would make things easier. 9.gif

I only counted 42 pinstripes on my suit anyway; maybe it will make the uploading easier too! 3.gifif anybody wants to be an empty suit like me anyway that is. 9.gif

    well...I have gotten 6 PM's so far with people who want to be randomly swapped, they will be in the first group.

    the next 6 will be in the 2nd group. this will repeat if as many people participate in random swapping. If I get a incomplete even number on the day before, I'll just shuffle them...or swap them as the case may be...if I get a incomplete odd number, then I'll add myself to the group(and bring out the avatar I'm making). I'm the oddball to make sure no one gets left out.

    and to answer purpledaddy's question, We don't have 500k members...and if we'd have all the members participate...then I'd need a bigger PM inbox and help from other people 3.gif but so far...that wont be necessary 2.gif

    Ok! I cannot accept any new people to be randomly swapped! If you want to participate, then you'll have to find someone willing to swap with you!

    I'm also going to answer two questions that popped up.

    Q: Can I participate if my username is in my avatar?

    A:Yes! It doesn't matter if your username is in your avatar, if someone is willing to swap, you can swap(plus, it adds to the confusion which make the event more interesting).

    Q: I'm not going to be here on Saturday. Can I still participate?

    A: Yes! You can simply replace your avatar with the one you'll be swapping with on the day it begins or the last day of the event...if you wont be here, upload it early! all you older posts will show your swapped avatar.

    I also have a list of people I have currently seen as swapping...
