Team Yogurt Revolution / Passing Down Pens/Pen Mods

Thoughts?

    Spoiler:
    so right now, im making an outsert with my school name to put on a comssa. frozenice and I are working on an outsert. i was thinking that we can pass it down through the generations, so i as a senior nxt year, will give it to, say, frozenice, hoiboy, somebody younger, to pass it down to someone else at least 2yrs-3yrs younger, to pass it on, etc.

    let me know what you think about it.

    btw it's all done except the outsert.


    So we are deriving contemplating (wrong usage of "derive", hoiboy angry.gif ) the idea of making a couple special Yogurt Revolution pens, and passing them down on to the next generation.

    fun idea
    i dont know how commited the others (the younger ones) are going to be
    and probably there'll be someone who doesn't want to hand it down

    the idea is good, not sure if its going to work well
    depends on the people

    you just need a wide range of first generation spinners to start it off to reduce that risk from happening. but yeah younger spinners idk about them. i havent really seen too many ppl stick to it that much. either way we shouldnt just make it for individual schools. it should be done team-wide, imo. because there are more ppl in this team that dont go to just your school. i am living proof of that.

    Well, I suppose in 3 years or so, there should be a few people who stand out. All the moderators would vote on the next spinner to receive the pen, I suppose. It should be based on participation in the community, though.

    I like the idea of passing down a pen. In the 1st poster's case, the people he/she passes it down to should be trustworthy.

    Or there could be a pen that is passed through people of the UPSB community....perhaps.

    the pen's already finished. it has a temporary, crude, kinda pixelated outsert on it right now, and i'm still working on a better version. i already know who i'd probably give it to, but i'm not so sure i want to know what happens to it after i graduate from high school a little over a year from now. do you guys think that starting a PS club at school with policies on the "master's pen" help keep it going down?

    ^ lol?

    on topic:
    i also second archermitch's topic, u should let the mods choose the person to receive the pen.
    it should be someone who u kno will pass it down (aka trustworthy)

    edit: editted the "lol" i didnt like the smilyface...

  10. Archermitch
    Date: Sun, Apr 26 2009 21:46:05

    ultimately, I like this idea, though. I think it could really be cool for the community.

    Nice idea. The pen/pen mod should be passed down to the best spinner in that generations.

    it doesn't have to be the best spinner, just one that i trust who will be the same, most likely frozenice, cuz we worked on this whole idea together.
    btw, it's a metallic comssa, so it won't be bad. pics will go up soon.

    If this is by school, why does this concern Yogurt Revolution?

    I'll turn it into a cheat comssa biggrin.gif
    i can't stand regular comssas.

    why don't we make a hollow mod so we can roll up a message when we get it and put it inside
    int he end, everyone's messages would be in there. kinda like a time capsule.

    That's a really good idea! I like it. I'm not sure anyone else would be up for it, but I think it would be really cool.

    I'm not quite sure why Yogurt Revolution is involved with this pen if it has to do with a school that we dont belong to. Which school do the leaders attend?

    oh wow. I'm pretty close then. I thought you guys would be in another state or something. I even have family over in your school tongue.gif

    I can't stand a regular Commsa. I got this one and it's like a #2 pencil. D:

    how about we have multiples of that same mod(down to the colors and outserts), but like spread out all over the team? so that we have more than one school or area getting this mod.

    yeap yeap, +1 for this

    then every area will at least get 1, rather than 1 in the nation or something

    looking over the member list, we have over one hundred members, some are out of the US, too. It would be wise to spread the mods outward from our area.

    I don't think we have 100 members (yet xD), but yeah, that's basically what we meant when we were discussing about spreading the pen/pen mod out.

    However, we have to agree on the logo, color scheme, type of pen, etc.

    I think it is feasible to do this though. biggrin.gif (After the tournament of course)

    but then the note thing doesn't work. unless when we meet during gatherings, we would swap the mods with the different sets of notes in em with other people with the same mod.

    What exactly were we planning on writing on the note?

    the note thing doesnt have to be only ONE note. it could be a note in every mod.

    i think we should assign certain members to come up with different parts of the mod. like someone gets the outsert, and another person gets the color scheme. or we can have a few people do each and we vote for the color or outsert etc. we like the most.

    I know. But like every person who gets it puts in a note or something. Something about themselves, a picture, a list of things they enjoy, etc, w/e.

    The pen that is to be passed down should be rare and look good but spin like crap.. as with all other antique stuff passed down from generations.

    yeah, old antique chairs spin like crap XD

    something useful might cause people to try and keep it

    i can try make a bunch of team yr specific pen mods, but you guys can also help by coming up with generic team yr outserts that we can vote on. how does that sound? i was also thinking they prolly don't have to be comssas either, though they're nice. rsvp mx mmt anyone? i made 2 already...
    just throwing out more ideas
    ~albert

    ps - pm me for the team outserts/inserts. i'll put up the 5 best to vote on when the time comes.

    3000*f?

    Rushon?

    But anyways, you don't want it to be too rare or else people will not pass it on.

    Err, Albert, let the mods decide this. Just a thought.

    Right. Make something like an RSVP CX or something with a special insert.

    sure
    ill let you take responsibility of the team yr pen mods
    either you or frozenice are going to get the mv one like nxt year, so that's more urgent for me.
    so the team yr moderators have officially taken my idea a step further. biggrin.gif

    FrozenIce dislikes his real name being used.
