Zombie Swap! (Int'l)

i love this your awesome

Hee - I would love,love,love to play but I am maxed out and behind on swaps as it is. Feel free to tap me near the closing date, maybe I''ll have more time and can sign up just under the wire! Might be up for playing angel, too.

A couple years ago, there was a horde of zombies (including zombie Santas and one roadkill Easter Bunny) mingling with the annual Santarchy crowd here in A2... I will at least try to find photos of that jolly mayhem.

I don't know the book you are talking about-but now I want to go get it! I have a bit of a crush on Zombie movies, my favorites are old-Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, new-28 Days Later and Shaun of the Dead. Also, I am working on a series of zombie ATCs that are portrait cards of famous zombies! So, I am already in a zombie frame of mind and would love to participate in this swap. My neighborhood is FULL of zombies...or maybe they're crackheads-at any rate,they certainly exhibit all of the signs of the walking dead. I have some great photographic and physical evidence too!

b: Brooks wrote the Zombie Survival Guide (so helpful during those critical days of the war, when every book on tactics had to be re-written!) and World War Z, which is an oral history of survivor accounts from the Zombie Wars, and which inspired me to create this swap, honoring the days when it looked, really looked, like humanity might be overwhelmed and wiped out by the walking dead.

Also, are you familiar with Give Me the Brain? It's a zombie card game made by Cheapass Games.

Hey, just an FYI: I changed the sign up date to tomorrow, for various reasons having to do with inviting a few friends via my blog (which is down right now, thanks Dreamhost), and because the "View All Swaps" page is really heavy with swaps that have sign-ups ending today. I'm hoping to game the system a little by ending sign ups tomorrow.

As an added bonus, it means I get to assign partners on Friday-- my BIRTHDAY! :D

oh man if this wasn't intl I would be so into this

next time maybe? =)

An update: There is a member of this swap who has now been removed from swap-bot. The people who were supposed to send to her had not sent yet, and will be angeling to the people who were supposed to receive from her (sadly, this means they won't get ratings for that sending). All parties involved have been notified, but I wanted to post a note here, so if anyone reads the forums and was thinking "gee, isn't that person in my swap?" they would know it's been taken care of already.

Thanks, Mortaine (swap hostess)

PS: Be sure to search the "View All Swaps" this week-- I know there are at least TWO OTHER ZOMBIE SWAPS in sign-ups right now! COOL!

mortraine,

maybe a good idea for those who cant get a rating... the people they send to can at least leave a comment saying they received the package? :)

Venus: Yes, I hope they will comment back-- it would be nice, at least, to get that much.

oh yayyeee! i'll be sending mine out this friday! :)

done and done! :)

OK, Venus and Leiapico: only view this if you want to spoil your surprise.

I finished the dolls! They're... well, they're a little weird. And probably kind of silly looking. Certainly, they are not professional-quality zombie knitted dolls.

What they are, however, is kind of cute, in an "I'll eat your brains" kind of way.

They are also here

sent out to b. jordan and rumraisin! i really like how these turned out, i hope you like them too :D
