Description:

This is the second swap in the 20 Questions series. For this swap, we'll be writing about some of our favorite things. But there's a little twist. You'll need to address each of the 20 questions in two parts.

In a letter to two partners, answer the following for each of the 20 items listed below:

If I were a _________, I would be a ________ because ___________.

You can always add additional information to your letter. (If you write longhand, please be sure your handwriting is legible.)

The fine print (rules):

This is an international swap.

To participate, you must have a 4.5 or higher rating. Newbies are welcome, but ALL players MUST have a completed profile.

The last swap had 193 people. I ended up sending notes to 23 people who were flaked on. That's no fun for me or for the people who swapped in good faith and had a partner who didn't send. I review the sign-up lists AFTER the swap closes, so you don't need to send me notes about questionable swappers.

The sign-up period won't be as long for this swap as it was for the other, so if you're interested in participating, please note the deadline to sign-up. You don't need to wait to get your partners to answer the questions. Start thinking now. Some of the items are a little odd -- but hopefully you'll have fun thinking about and creating your answers.

Thanks for considering this swap!

Liz 07/28/2007 #

Ooh... I'm in - loved the first 20 Q swap. Happy to play again!

RobynNichole 08/10/2007 #

I have to drop from this swap :(.. Time is not a friend of mine this month. But I will certainly look for the next 20 questions swap if there is one.

BuckeyeBisous 08/16/2007 #

I'm excited about this swap! I've already answered the question, so I've got time for extras!:)

CandyStar 08/16/2007 #

I... don't understand what we're supposed to do. Do we fill in the blanks with a colour for number one, and a bird for number two..... or do we fill in the first blank with a colour and then answer the other two with normal answers?

Or do we choose our own answers for the 3 blanks and then the list is just there to... asldfkjadflk

I am so confused

tkoufus 08/16/2007 #

hi candy star, the way i read it is that you subsitute the first thing on t he list in the blank and say, if i was a colour i would be ( choose your own colour eg.red) because ( the reason why you would be red eg.it is a symbol of love.) you fill in the blanks with your reasons but the first part, if i were a ........ you use the items on the list unitl you have worked through the full list. i am sure i will be corrected if i am wrong and i am sorry if i spoke out of turn. hope this helps

Artistic 08/16/2007 #

That's correct.

PurpleSheep 08/17/2007 #

Oh, love the questions :-) Some of them really make me think!

I'm a newbie so if you don't want me to participate, I'll understand. I've filled out my profile, though.

Artistic 08/17/2007 #

Purplesheep: All you need as a newbie is a completed profile.

rachel26 08/18/2007 #

Hi I love writing letters. But what's a body of water?

Mo0fin 08/18/2007 #

shopaholic_hearts: bodies of water are things such as rivers, oceans, brooks, streams, lakes, seas, etc. i think the host wants us to pick a certain one, ie pacific ocean, amazon river, the great lake, etc. correct me if i'm wrong :P

elizabethofcourse 08/19/2007 #

i love this. i loved the first one. Artistic, i'll volunteer to send a couple extra copies to you, if you want, to angel people who get flaked on.

BuckeyeBisous 08/19/2007 #

I'm open to angeling 2 or 3, if necessary.

Mo0fin 08/20/2007 #

If you HAVE NOT received from your partner, please let me know by the end of this week.

If you have received a list from your partners, don't forget to rate him or her.

Thank you for your participation in this swap.
