I guess, a thing or 2 will do. Kasi meron pa tayong Best and Worst of 2014, diba? :)


Tina (tinamats) | 2665 comments Hello!

Hijacking the F2F thread just a bit to announce the other activity that we will be doing sa F2F (outside of Ninang Louize's moderating duties): Best & Worst + I Dare You to Read 2015.

Similar to what we did in 2015, we will have a segment where each one will share their 1 best and 1 worst (or at least, something you didn't really like) read in 2015. After we have shared, all those titles will be put in a box, and everyone who wishes to be dared will pick a title from the box and that is your designated dare read for the year. (view spoiler)

The Best & Worst + I Dare You to Read 2015 will be hosted by Monique (view spoiler). :)

So F2F attendees, don't forget to prepare for this activity! (You get stamps on your passport, and stuff. :D)


Angus (angusmiranda) | 4337 comments Speaking of passports, I still have 18 in stock. If you didn't win a free passport or if you haven't got one yet, I'll bring them with me. Php 100. Tapat na po iyan. Stressful ang mang-abono so huwag na po tumawad ktnx.

Tina: I'll discuss with Monique but I'll bring The Book of Dares still. ;)

Let's us wait for the moderators on this issue. I can't exactly recall every sub-rule, except for those three I mentioned above. Sorry, I will ask them muna.

Tina (tinamats) | 2665 comments Ella: Yes, bring the books if you can. And be ready to lend it, if ever. =) That's how we did it sa F2F last year. =)

Cary: We'll give everyone one late pass a year. =) Mechanics here. Also changing the late fee to P100 for first hour, P50 for succeeding hours. All proceeds will go to TFG funds. :)

Meliza (mecawish) | 720 comments Hello! I'll be coming from Robinsons Galleria tomorrow morning/lunch before going to the f2f. What is the easiest way to go to the f2f venue from there? (Except taxi, nagtitipid ako. Hehe!) Or anyone who would also be coming from that way, para me kasabay ako? :)

Also, I can't change my response to the event. I have done that before pero hindi ko sya makita ngayon.
