Hills of the North rejoice!

Last night, an sms poured into my phone demanding that we play the Great Advent Game again. Does everyone remember the Great Advent Game ?

The short version: everyone who wants to play makes an Advent calendar, and then we pass them round so everyone gets an exciting home-made means of tracking the days of Advent.

I hadn't planned on running it this year, and fear that it may be slightly short notice. The calendars have to be in possession of their users by 1st December, which means that realistically you'd have just slightly over a fortnight to plan and execute such a calendar ?

So its really just me??
Then I shall send YOU a glorious one!

[marjory.livejournal.com]

No - it's me too (except I didn't do any demanding!)

[venta.livejournal.com]

Nope - I thought it might just be thee and me, but it seems there's currently a whopping seven people considering taking it on.

Is it possible to make one that, er, isn't particularly Christmassy?

[venta.livejournal.com]

Yup. Any means of counting up to 24 is acceptable.

[dmh.livejournal.com]

In that case, I'm in! :oD

Hmmm... Auntie Marjory's Binary Calendar. A different sequence of 1s and zeroes behind each door...

I can't do it this year, but I'd want to hear if it's happening next year, just in case.

Would it be too late to join? I have suddenly had a fun idea; if you tell me it's not too late, then tomorrow I shall see whether I can make the fun idea work or not, and if (a) it's not too late and (b) I can work out how to make it happen in practice this year then I shall tell you to count me in - otherwise I shall work on it for 2007.

Feel free to screen this comment if you don't want potential participants' identities revealed, obv.

It's a little 11th hour, but not too late! I reckon that things need posting by tomorrow or Wednesday to get to their destinations, so if you can let me know by tonight or tomorrow morning whether you're in, that's fine.

Nuts. Better luck, especially for me, next year.
