The TBBS Valentine's Day Extravaganza 2016!

It's that time of year again! Welcome to the 2016 Valentine's Day Extravaganza! Kestra and I are this year's Cupids, and we're looking forward to sharing all your messages of friendship, admiration and love across our board.

For those of you unfamiliar with our Valentine's Day Extravaganza, the idea is that on your behalf Kestra and I send virtual flowers and a note (if you wish; there's no need to include one) to another TBBS board member on February 14th. It could be someone you admire, someone you appreciate as a friend, or even someone on whom you have a crush. Your message can be anonymous if you wish; just let us know. It's been very popular and a lot of fun in previous years, and everyone, seasoned pros and rookies, is welcome to partake.

So, here are the all-important rules:

PM Kestra or me by midnight on the 12th GMT, and on the 14th we'll send your choice of "flowers" with or without a note to the person or people of your choosing.

Please provide the following:
a. Your recipient's username(s).
b. What color of (digital) flowers to send them. Choose one from red (love), white (admiration), yellow (friendship), or pink (crush) per recipient.
c. A note from you (if you wish). The note can only be a written message and not a picture or a gif or something like that. Your Cupids really enjoy running the Extravaganza but anything other than written notes slows down an already very busy event for us, and you do not want Kestra and/or me to become grumpy.
d. Whether you'd like us to include your username or stay anonymous.

Feel free to send flowers to up to five people, with one bunch of flowers per recipient. This is all in good fun and has been a great success in previous years, so let's make this year's Extravaganza even better!

Could one of the lovely Misc mods pin this post, please? :)

I still protest the lack of blue flowers. Discrimination, I tells ya! :lol:

I guess I should get a list together.
 
Blue flowers are supposed to be for clarity, calmness, inspiration and trust.

Blue can be for the "I think you're cool" message. :bolian: Or something.

(that sounded far more convincing in my head....)


I guess I will have to get by without blue flowers.
 
Seriously, this is such a nice thing to do, Mary Ann and Kestra!!!

I look forward to the fun, the excitement, the love and the connection!!! That's what Valetine's Day, and every day, should really be all about!!! :adore: :techman: :biggrin:
