Carft your love of Battlestar Gallactica just in time for the new release of RAZOR on November 24th!

This is going to be small swap with the holidays just around the corner and with this being the first round to try this out so the minimum to be sent is 1 medium item and 2 small items, this is in time and crafty effort involved. Use your best judgement. If you are unsure feel free to PM the organizer or your partner to ask about it. This is just a guideline, it's perfectly fine to send more if you want. But if you do want to send more talk with your partner about it, we don’t want anyone feeling bad.

Also, if you don’t have access to a camera or the ability to post pics can you let me know and I will try to partner you up with someone who does so all the goodies can been seen by everyone in the swap.

How feedback will work:
Positive feedback will be given in the following way
   - great swapper: for those who follow all the rules
   - good/poor communication: where applicable
   - sent late/early: where applicable
   - no DC number: failed to comply with the rule about using a delivery confirmation number for packages within your own country
I hope there is no need to give anyone Negative feedback, flakers will be dealt with accordingly.

I'm going to sign up, but I need to figure out my answers to the questionnaire first...

[redheadskydiver]

Does everybody need longer sign-ups? Bad timing? Not interested afterall? There seemed to be more people in the discussion threads and yet no one here.

I'd love to sign up for this but it's bad timing for me 

I don't want to commit to any new swaps until after Xmas/holidays.  Right now I'm an angel in Little Visitor #7.

BSG swap + angeling + holidays = Gizmonic meltdown disaster!  And we don't want that -- too messy

I'm interested.  But, I only knit, pretty much, and I'm not sure anyone would want knit things    I don't want you to have a hard time matching me or disappoint a swap partner.

I always get stuck on the small items, especially.

I hope this picks up though.  I'd love to see what people make.

ETA: I'm enjoying the Firefly/Serenity gallery.  I didn't join that one for the same reasons. 

Pia.

whooo -hooo

I went and saw a sneak screening in the theater for Razor on Monday. I LOVE BATTLESTAR! ok I'm signing up.
 yes!
 
gizmonic - holidays? what's that? Santa claus? Let that guy take care of business.

Pia_77- Come on down to the BSG swap, baby. You gots Cylons as your avatar! I'm sure you can make some fantastic knitting BSG thing that will blow minds back to the resurrection ship!

[Pia_77]

Oh, you are so lucky to have seen Razor already 
It must have been good to get you all excited and rearing to go.

Pia.

[dragonflyducky]

oh man! I love BSG....but I'm not sure I can join with my annual Christmas mania sleep-deprivation-a-thon starting up at the same time
<sigh>  will ponder....

[kcfirecracker]

The screening  was great. Seeing it & because I wasn't sure if I was going to get in the first place (my friend got in as well- the people were super nice!). And seeing something you love with people that are way into it as well....Not a single cell phone was heard or seen.
Only Poo was some video game they were incessantly hocking, and Seth Green was taking quotes from cue cards and trying to make it funny. I'll still watch Robot Chicken.
