Community Mystery Box

[Viridis]

As you have all seen the Mystery Box rage has spread far and wide across the NG BBS, and now they are unfortunately out of stock, most likely forever.
I did not buy a Mystery Box, and I'm pretty sure there are a few other people who didn't get one either, and that's very depressing, considering some of the awesome stuff packaged in those things.

Now what I'm proposing is that the members of the NG BBS send each other Mystery Boxes.
Now this doesn't require any kind of trust involved, bar sending addresses to another user, but you should make sure you trust whoever you're sending your address.

There are going to be a serious set of rules going to ensure this can be carried out safely and securely, providing that anyone wants to be involved.

RULES:
1. NO DANGEROUS OR ILLEGAL ITEMS, ANYTHING THAT COULD BE PERCEIVED AS A WEAPON, ANYTHING THAT COULD GET THE RECEIVING USER IN TROUBLE WITH PARENTS OR POLICE.
2. NOTHING OFFENSIVE TO RACE OR GENDER, EG: SENDING A GAY USER PAPER WITH GAY SLURS WRITTEN ON IT.
3. NOTHING OF EXTREME VALUE THAT A USER MAY WANT BACK AFTER SENDING, THIS IS FOR KEEPS LADIES.
4. BE SURE YOU TRUST WHOEVER YOU GIVE YOUR ADDRESS TOO, NEITHER I NOR NEWGROUNDS CAN BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INFORMATION YOU SEND WILLINGLY IN A PM.
5. YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR POSTAGE, THOUGH IT SHOULDN'T BE A LOT AND YOU SHOULD BE WILLING TO DO IT IF YOU ARE WILLING TO RECEIVE A BOX.
6. IT GOES TWO WAYS, DON'T EXPECT TO RECEIVE A BOX IF YOU AREN'T WILLING TO SEND ONE.
7. PROOF OF ARRIVAL, POST PICTURES OF WHAT YOU RECEIVED TO SHOW THAT YOU DID ACTUALLY GET IT, IF IT'S LOST IN THE POST OR YOU LIE ABOUT GETTING IT, TOUGH, YOU WON'T GET ANOTHER.
8. MINIMUM POST COUNT OF 2000, EXCEPTIONS MAY APPLY.
If any Moderators or Admins wish to add ruels or regulations feel free, you guys are the fat cats around here.

Okay, so here's how it's going to go. First ten people to send me PM's will be involved in Round 1 of Mystery Box extravaganza.
Out of those 10 people I will randomly select who is sending to who and confirm that everyone is okay with it. That way everyone involved will get a box of goodies. There is no minimum to the amount of stuff sent, but be aware you might not get the same amount back.

After everyone receives their box and has posted a picture there may be another round of giveaways, depending on how popular this is. Unfortunately only 9 places will be available first time round as I will be participating first time.

What you need to send me:
Username:
Age:
Location: [So I can pair up regions better, less travel time for postage]

USERS INVOLVED:

I'd like to get on this. I have a few things i'd be willing to send.

[WeHaveFreshCookies]

A good idea. I support this, but at present, I shall not participate...

my reasons are my own

I think it'd be more fun to randomly pick names regardless of region... other countries have some crazy crap!
I'll put my name in (is this good enough? ...pm seems pointless now) :P

[Letiger]

Those caps made me sure not to sign up. Meany.

[Rooster]

Bob just sent me 30 Snow Snow for Lucy dvd's. And what a mystery box without that?
So I guess I'm in.

This sounds like a pretty awesome community idea. It would be neat if you drew names from a hat and made it a secret Santa kind of thing where you don't know who it's from until everyone has received theirs and posted pics.

[funkycaveman]

is this UK only?

RULE # 9: NO ANTHRAX

No, the community mystery box is now safer.
Please, hold your applause.

Finally someone noticed my change.

2000 post limit just encourages spammers, trolls, and people to spam.

Then everyone would have to send me the addresses, it could work if people were willing to do that. And then i could PM the addresses to the users. They could put a note in there with their
username. Could be pretty cool too.

Rule #10

NO SENDING REGION-LOCKED DVDS ACCROSS COUNTRY JUST TO BE AN ASSHOLE.

I think this is perfectly valid.

Doubtful, I really don't think anyone would be that desperate for a box. That, and they would get banned WAY before 2000 posts.

Secondly, DONT FORGET TO PM ME IF YOU WANT IN. I'm not taking applications from the thread.

[conservative23]

Damnit, I was planning on putting a rag infested with SARS in it!

Hurray!

I always wanted to give/receive a box of random crap in the mail!

[Makeshift]

Cool idea. I'm in.

[Ptero]

I want to do this, but I don't know if I'll be able to send a box out. My mom has been stingy about that kind of stuff, even when I offer to pay for it myself.

[Ryanson]

Instead of a Mystery Box, how about my Dick in a Box?

Clever, right?

The only things I have worthy of sending is stuff that Newgrounds may not want. But I'd love to get in on this. I'd LOVE IT

[Ryanson]
