I'm working on it, and it'll be sent off to Lilo in 2 days inshallah

Before I do, I'll take a picture of it, and myself with it, and I'll PM it you -

with that, I'll want you to start up a new thread with "ZU BPP - Journey Tracking!"
and post the route of BPP member-to-member, and make sure to state that a person must post THE DAY they receive it, and post also the day they send it off.

That way, we'll always know where it's at and weak links if any


Peace ^___^
Asia

You heard the man. The BPP is officially started!

Asia's starting the thing off, and sending it to Liah.

Let me stress that EVERYONE must post here as SOON AS POSSIBLE after receiving the Paper (and we'll be PMing you too anyway so get over it) so we can track its progress easily. Also post here when you are sending it off. Don't talk about unrelated stuff here.

So! IT BEGINS!

Alright, I'm here to give specific details about this thread's purpose and the guidelines for posting in it.

The Big Piece of Paper (BPP) Tracking Thread of EPICNESS!
This thread is absolutely not for conversation of any kind. ALL conversation/questions/planning of BPP things is to happen in the Discussion and Planning thread (link coming soon).
This thread IS to be a "museum" of sorts for observing the journey of the BPP. After this whole project is done, this thread will be the epic awesome "scrapbook" that people can marvel at for years to come.

RULES/GUIDELINES for this thread:
1. Each BPP participant gets ONE post in which to document their time with the BPP. That way, people can go throught he thread and see its journey through each participant's hands in order.
2.As soon as a person receives the BPP, they are to immediately make a post in this thread saying their name and location, who they received it from, and when. From there, they can EDIT into the post, the picture/s they take with the BPP (I'd suggest no more than 2 pics) along with captions/descriptions for the pics, and maybe like a mini-bolggy thing about what they did with the paper and their excitement, etc...

Here is an exapmle of what each person's post should look like when they're all done and have sent the BPP on to the next person:

The tube was in my doorstep when I got home from work! I was so surprised how quickly it got here! And look what Lefty sent me! <picture>

So after I filled out my section of the BPP, I went to the Shore of Lake Erie to take my picture:

This was such an awesome project idea and I'm glad I got to take part in it! I'll be sending it along to Sadi as soon as I get my butt to the post office. Sadi's got a sepecial surprise coming to her

Sent to Sadida on Oct 17th, 2008

OK so that was an example of how each person's contribution to this thread should look.

-instructions for writing on the BPP (size guidelines, rules, etc...) coming soon

Again, NO discussion is to take place in this thread. ALL discussion and planning and conversation about the BPP is to take place in the NEW Discussion/planning thread (which is coming very soon)!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to OFFICIALLY announce that the BPP is underway!

I sent the BPP on it's way to Liah last Monday 13th October.
It is 120 centimeters in length and 65 centimeres in width. This should give everyone roughly 13 centimeters in length and 7 in width of space (maximum) to add their contribution.

And.. here is what it looks like!

The scroll of awesome:

I LOVE YOU ZELDA UNIVERSE SQUEEEEE!!

I AM EDITING THIS POST WITHIN TWELVE HOURS BUT AM POSTING TO REASSUE EVERYONE :3

Okay, so here I am finally posting in here.

Recieved: 23/12/08 from Falcon.
Sent: 23/1/09 to Cambria. BUT IT GOT SENT BACK. D:
Re-sent: 5/2/09 to Cambria. It should work this time.

Warning: EXTREMELY big pictures. My camera's 10.1 megapixels.

EDIT: I've decided to be kinder to slow internet peeps and turn these pics into links.


Ooo lookie! I got a toob!

It's rattly... what's inside...?

OMNOMNOM

The stupid thing didn't want to stay unrolled, so I used my N64, my DS, my DS games, and my brother's 360 to hold it down.


That's me. Ignore that I didn't shave. D:

OH HERE HE COMES TO WRECK THE DAAAAAY~!

My turn:
Recieved: 18/02/09 from Sabbo.
Given to Bex to handle until Pani can sign: 01/03/09.

Pics will now ensue, death to dialup users.


BPP with Cambria, happy times as you can see by my wonderful and passionate smile.

Bex sensed some Ericisms emanating from the core of the BPP, so she took the appropriate course of action and hugged it.

Then signing was done, and suchlike.

We went on a tour of the city with the BPP.
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1485.JPG
These soldiers fought hard to protect the BPP from the evils of Anzac Square, they were turned to stone in the process. ;-;

After we saved the BPP from their clutches, the BPP went to check the bus times to ensure that it would be able to return home in time for tea from Mrs BPP.
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1487.JPG
With that sorted, it was off to run a few errands and sight-seeing while it was in town!

It went to become the BPPeterBeattie:
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1488.JPG

As it has to travel soon overseas, it decided the time had now arrived to check out airline tickets to Singapore, the next destination after Australia:
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1491.JPG
The BPP's wallet was about to take a big hit. :<

It needed to take its mind off his imminent money loss in traveling overseas (it didn't like that smelly Cody it was going to see) it went and had lunch. Junk food from McDonalds was one of its favourite things to have, so it gorged itself until it felt sick.
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1498.png

It felt reaaaally ill, so it did what only a BPP cAN do when it's feeling sick..

.. GO TO THE ARCADE!

http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1495.JPG
(because that makes total sense and you know it)

And we all know that big pieces of paper in big cardboard tubes absolutely lOVe to play Air Hockey, we just couldn't say no to it. Those cute baby eyes ;-;
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1496.JPG

Then it went and crashed into a big basket of coffee beans, as that is totally unexplainable.
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1500.JPG
Maybe it just has a thing for Starbucks?

Then suddenly

RANDOM TIMESKIP TO BEX AT THE TRAIN STATION ABOUT TO TAKE IT AWAY OOO:
http://www.uploadthis.co.uk/uploads/Shikz/IMG_1503.JPG


THE EPIC ADVENTURE OF THE BRISBANE BPP COMES TO AN END, TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS NEXT, STAY TUNED TO THE THREAD.


(yeah, my enthusiasm and posting style totally has to make up for being late.)



Edit (Bex): Yeah I'd just like to point out that I hadn't really slept and had been at my boyfriend's place all night and hadn't had the chance to tend to my hair and change which is why I look like I'd been sleeping in a cave for three days

BPP has been passed back to Bex, who has sent it off to skate_mate. :)

I remembered to take pictures when I first got it! They're not the greatest.

They're too CAMWHOREY.

So, I received the BPP from Pani about a week or so ago. I'm in the middle of exams at law school however, so I neatly tucked it away and only just looked at it tonight. Fully didn't know about the 'send this BPP to another person within 7 days or you will die' rule though! Nevertheless, I have contributed and will be sending it on to Cody next day the Post Office is open. I cracked out the Sony Cybershot to take some happy snaps, but the battery was flat. =[ MacBook webcam to the rescue! Thank you, Photo Booth. Here are the pictures:

This piece of paper is BIG! I can hardly fit in the photo with it.

Oh wait, here I am.


Teh ancient scrolls of wisdom. I haz it.

EDIT: Changed so as to only show one photo to improve loading times for the thread. =]
