Last Call -- Cutoff time for signing up will be 5/16 at 6:00 pm Pacific.

Also -- given the number of people that are participating that are also going to the convention, I'm guessing that no matter how I schedule it, we will probably have a delay. No big deal, and if the RR ends up waiting for you to return home, don't sweat it

I'm looking for casino room key collectors that are interested in participating in a round robin. If you wish to participate in this round robin, be certain to read the requirements to participate listed below.

For those that haven't participated in a round robin before, the process is pretty simple...

-I'll gather the names of those interested in participating.
-I will send 100 different casino related room keys to the first person on the list.
-That person takes as many of the keys as they want out of the ones they receive, replacing them with their duplicates, one for one, making sure not to duplicate any of the keys already in the group.
-They pack the keys up and send them on to the next person on the list. This process is continued with the last person on the list sending the keys back to me.

There are a few rules for this round robin:
(1) Only casino related room keys are being traded.
(2) Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation is to be used for all shipments.
(3) Once you've received the shipment and have finished with it, you must post a message on the board listing when you've put the shipment into the mail and the delivery confirmation number so the next person on the list can watch for it.
(4) Due to the Priority Mail requirement, this round robin is limited to shipping addresses in the United States.
(5) Please try to turn the shipment around as quickly as possible.

Please do not use the RR as a way to improve your selection of traders. It's not fair to the other participants and it's taking advantage of the people ahead of you in the RR that chose to put interesting keys in the group. Please only use the RR to obtain casino room keys that you need for your collection. It is always appreciated if you can add newer, more exciting keys to the RR to make things more exciting for the following people in the RR. This is all about having fun so why not try to make things as exciting as possible for everyone in the RR?

A note for new collectors: Don't be shy about participating in the RR. Even if you don't have many extras, participating is a chance to see many room keys at a very low cost and you may be able to add some to your collection. All you are out is the cost of sending the package on to the next participant.

If you're interested in participating in this round robin, contact me directly by email at silvajim@hotmail.com and provide the following information:

-Your name

-Current mailing address for the shipment (even if you think I have your address, please send it again so I can double-check my records)

-If there is a time over the next six weeks or so that would conflict with your ability to handle the RR (i.e. being away on a trip, going to the convention work demands, etc.), if possible let me know now and I will try to place your name so that the timing will “work” with your schedule. I’m not terribly concerned about scheduling around an absence of a few days, but anything longer than that could hamper the enjoyment of the RR for others and is best addressed when I prepare the schedule.

I plan to take names for about a week to ten days, with the shipment going out roughly at the end of the month.

Thanks again!

Jim
