Description:
This is my first swap as a Coordinator!! YAY! Thanks to everyone who helped get me on my feet! :) This swap is a playlist swap, but instead of simply e-mailing I thought that getting a letter with 20 songs listed would be awesome! So, send your partner a letter with your top 20 songs for this summer! Please be diverse, no more than two songs from the same artist! If you want, you can explain why you chose the songs you did in your letter and/or decorate you envie and letter! Make it something you would WANT to have show up in your mailbox! Also, as for the type of music you choose, this is sender's choice, but please take the time to see if your partner detests rap, or country, or polka tunes before you make a whole playlist of one genre! Get diverse!! :) Please no one with a rating lower than 4.8 or random un-answered 1 or 3s, I WILL be checking! Newbies will well filled out profiles are welcomed with open arms, and flakers should go fall in a hole :) Have fun with this!!

I'm loving this already! If this works out well, will you continue this swap with different themes?

Yay!! Thanks so much for the nice comments :) @aploenes I'd love to! :)

I am a little confused. You say for us to send our partner a letter with OUR top 20 songs for summer, but then tell us to NOT have more than 2 songs from one artist and to try NOT to include music our partner doesn't like. So is this really a senders choice swap, or is it more profile specific?

It is a great swap idea, and I would love to join, but not if it isn't truly MY playlist.

@kayleena that is confusing. I understand what you're saying, so I'll try to clear up what I was saying. I what mean is that I'd like to get as much variety in the list by getting many different artists in (the 2 song limit). Also, in saying not to include music your partner might not like, that is only a suggestion. You are more than welcome to send a list with whatever genres you like, but for the sake of your partner, i would check their profile. I would hate to get a list were i didn't like a single song. :( I hope that clears things up! I'd love to have you join in!

mombiebrains 07/ 9/2012 #

Is my profile filled out enough to participate? This would be my very first swap...?

genre9 07/ 9/2012 #

Wait am I wrong or was the date changed? wasn't it the 9th?

slapdashmom 07/11/2012 #

Can we send these on a post card?

genre9 07/11/2012 #

@slapdashmom i would recommend sending in a letter instead, just because of the smaller size of the PC, but you could ask your partner if they mind!
