(international) team message ~10th Anniversary~ A WORLD

[CHE.R.RY]

I'm a little confused...how many of these threads are we gonna have? O.o

[~X2RADialbomber~]

I'll quote my post then >_>

I personally think that this should be an online thing. Like for example, you have a website of a database of all your scrapbook creations for Ayu, then somehow, I don't know how, you can send her the message and the website address, that means less ink, less paper, and a whole lot less time and money wasted. Because I don't even KNOW how you're going to send Ayu this, like are you going to go to Avex headquarters and try to hand it in to them? Because oddly enough, I don't think that's going to work

[Zantor]

I think somebody who speak fluent japanese should email Avex and told them who we are and what are we going to do, if they can help us and deliver it to Ayu or something. And it is very important that the email sound serious and convincing!!

I think that is the first step before doing anything more

[Cys86]

I agree with Zantor, it will be easier to diliver the scrapbook.

I agree with this.

I would absolutely love to send Ayu a hand-written letter; a scrapbook of letters and pictures would be awesome, but at this time it doesn't seem the most practical way to get such a big message to Ayu. I think creating a pretty webpage where everyone's messages and work can be displayed and then spamming the crap out of avex with links to the project (or find a TA member who can email/post it for Ayu?) is best.

The time difference between countries means that I was asleep when staff members were meant to meet on MSN. It was 3:50am...

^ Awww, I'm sorry. You didn't miss much, though. (I can PM you what all happened if you want.)

I don't know if this is such a good idea. I'm sure Ayu gets online, but how often? I don't think she'd cherish a webpage as much as she would a scrapbook; she can keep a scrapbook forever, but the webpage might shut down one day. We have a few different ways of sending Ayu stuff as well.

^ But you have to be realistic. How are you going to send it to Ayu?

[perfectodub]

i think
some artist (ayu fans) can make a paiting of ayumi for the COVER
something beautiful and sensible like this


a paiting represent to much heart than a photoshop work

AND I REALLY WANT TO HELP..i love to be Volunteer..I LIVE IN CHILE
(Even here in my country we have an AYU-TEAM-CHILE)

Via postmail. We've got the address for Ayu, TeamAyu, and Mr. Kaz. Of course, we're going to talk to some people, see which address is the best to send. (Who knows, there may be a better one to send to.)

We're still accepting submissions. Maybe someone will submit something like that!

Yay! We were looking for someone in that area to volunteer...Have you notified AYU-TEAM-CHILE about this? Definitely PM Draggi about being a volunteer.

YES i email to the team-chile...i'm waiting for an answer right now

[Chibi_Venus]

So, to send something in do we have to be a "volunteer"?

[rikku411]

^ No you don't, anyone can send something in ^-^

[jaomaru]

Wow I hope this is the last thread! Though I'm confused...now if there's only one main person really doing the scrapbooking (I think that's how I read some posts), and volunteers willing to get the letters in their mail and e-mail (to print), what's the point besides printing the stuff, to have volunteers? I thought the volunteers would have a hand in assembling the 'scrap book pages' and then send their portion to the main scrapbooker who would take the time to section it by continent/country/whatever, and mail it to Japan...

Someone please explain to me, because I don't think I understand anymore lmao

[polka-dot-jewel]

^ lol We're still doing it like that. ^__^; Draggi is the one we're sending it to. Once we receive the letters (via e-mail or postmail), then we will be making the pages for the letters. (A note for the volunteers, too: you can put more than one letter on each page. Don't make it empty or overcrowded, though.) Like I said, once we're doing making our pages, we'll be sending it to Draggi. And, yes, we are organizing it by continent (instead of country).

Hope this gets rid of all your confusion. =)

^GOT CHA!

Well in the last thread SunShineSlayer posted about being at the site of the fanclub HQ and possibly delivering it, the only concern is that the book might not be completed. Other than that, as for getting it to someone who can give it to ayu, is our biggest obstacle x_x.

[zoomzoom]

So the previous thead with A Mission was turned into this one? Just so we don't have like double things going on.

But this seems very nice and organized. Great idea and name too.

So the chain is like

All fans --> Main continent volunteers --> Draggi, for the creation of the book --> Contact person in Japan --> Avex/Ayu

Just to see if I get it right.

I just read their post, actually. I honestly think our best bet at the moment would be giving this book to them. The deadline to send the letters / e-mails IS March 1st, 2008; Ayu's 2008 tour begins on April 5th (and the next two dates for Tokyo are the 6th and the 8th). I'm pretty sure we can have the book done by then. (But since Draggi lives in Germany, I wonder how long it'll take for the book to get from there to Los Angeles, where SunShineSlayer lives.) Maybe we should extend the deadline from March 1st to sometime in February. (Not the 1st, but maybe the 15th or something.)

EDIT:

Yes, all three previous forums have turned into this one. Yes, for the most part, the chain is like that. =)

With standard priced mail, a package like that would probably take around 1-2 weeks to get shipped.
