Indeed. This way, we'll be able to present DH with the best quality gift possible.

Fine work, Sherry Ann.

So... Sherry Ann is going to save the contents of the two threads into Google document, and then save it as a PDF? That sounds like a good idea, but I just wanted to be clear on what's happening. Correct me if I'm wrong.
With all due respect.

Yeah, that seems to be the plan from where I'm standing (or rather, sitting), too. But I'm sure that Sherry Ann will confirm everything for us before any major steps are taken.

We'll probably also assemble everything into a thread in Dastardly Documents, I think, partly for the record and partly to set the order down so it can be more easily transferred into a .pdf.
Incidentally, I'm projecting a closing date for the various contributions and submissions of the 25th, although there's some room there. The 25th is a Thursday... could make it the 26th. I want to be able to send it by the end of the 27th, and we'll need time to put it all together.

Lemona: Yes, that's the plan so far.
Here's what I was thinking: the last day to submit contributions is on the 25th, and the day of the 26th we start putting everything in order and decide what format we want to use. By the end of the 27th, a .pdf and/or thread is made that gets sent to Daniel Handler. Forgive me if I just reiterated what you said, but do you mean you want to extend the deadline, restrict it, or neither?

I was just mulling over what the deadline should be. Your outline sounds good to me.

Yeah, I like Sherry Ann's deadline, too. I would say more, but then I'd just be repeating what she said.

Excellent. So now all we have to do is wait until the 26th.

Sound like a good plan. We'll need time to put everything together; who is going to do that? Sherry Ann? Sorry for asking so many questions, but I just like to be clear on everything.
With all due respect.

I imagine me and Sherry Ann will collaborate. We'll jointly decide on an order of presentation, then I'll make the thread in DDocuments and she can convert it to a .pdf with Google Documents, and I'll send it. Pretty sure that's the plan.

Well, it's a good one, thanks, Dante. Reasonably random order of presentation, I imagine? I'm sure you and Sherry Ann will do a wonderfully unfortunate job. Good luck!
With all due respect.

Yes, random order is what I'm thinking, unless anyone has a different idea. I made a practice .pdf with the contributions we have now, and it worked out pretty well. The only problem I foresee is uploading it onto 667... but we'll get there.

I assumed that the version on 667 would just have everything in a thread - like the thread we have right now, only with a bit more reason to the order in which everything is posted. The .pdf version would be an e-mail attachment.

Sorry to be thick but where do we send our fanfics or whatever we are doing?
