Next "PITH"

[toddlajoie]

I think it should be done by random number pairing, I don't know how Landon paired the last group, but it was pretty good pairing, and also don't fret too much about not being enough entrants or being even numbered, some of us make extra pens just for those that do get stiffed and try and see that if a person fails to fulfill there promise to make a pen, they won't be allowed to participate in any future IAP activities, PITH'S are a lot of fun provided we don't get hung up in a Theme thing. Same with classes of makers, I'd just as soon have a nice slimline from some Newbie as long as the person did the best job they could do.
It's not about the kit, or the wood it's about how much love did the person put into it.

Well said!!!

First of all, I loved the PITH. My only comment is that I would like to see 2 people paired up and exchange pens. Rather than the list and you send a pen to one guy and get one from another guy. KISS principle!!

Just my $.02, worth exactly what you paid for it.

Since i've been on IAP there have been quite a few different ways of pairing people up. None of them have worked flawlessly. So whoever Landon and his protege decide to do it, will be fine with me!!

me to i have been involved in 2 piths and never had a problem with either way the pairing was done. glad we get to do another one this year. it is real enjoyable and makes you use your head with some of the pen blank chouces.

That is the ideal way to do it, but it only works if you have an even number of folks in the contest.

No theme? Ya right!:biggrin::wink:

Landon I have a FANTASTIC idea for a Theme this time!! The pen has to write! Simple enough right???
