Some of the people before you, Garm, haven't been active on here in months, so yeah, I would predict you get the bear fairly soon.

[I can't speak for Darb, of course, but I would imagine that if you should resurface after being inactive for a while and realize you have been skipped, just PM Darb to get yourself put back on the list? Seems fair to me. ]

Sure, I've PMed her the form letter and we'll get Bamboo to visit her after Garm before Bamboo flies back over to the East Coast. Note I keep a week to reply rule as well, so if I don't hear back, I'll PM whoever is next and she'll have to wait until after that person. I don't intend to sound like a rules-monger, just trying to keep Bamboo running smoothly.

If she's not active in the forum, she might get skipped but since you made an appearance for her, that 'll probably help some ;0)
Yes, she was skipped because she's been inactive since last year. Anyone who has been inactive for more than a month when I check for who is next gets skipped. If they can come back and notice they have been skipped they can be included, so long as they play by the rules.

This is exactly how we lost two bears, people were inactive and reappeared after I PMed them telling them they were next, then disappeared again, only Bambo and Bamboo I were (and still are) in their possession. Hence the new policy of skipping inactive members.

DAY 1. What a curious little bear. Didn't want to rest at all.

Got right on the internet. I caught him IM-ing Tomato, I think it's more than platonic, but I can't prove it.



No, it's not a jungle gym, Bambo. Yes, I won them.



Bambo, IN the truck not ON the truck. This is Bambo's new friend "Blackie", who is a mascot for a New Zealand rugby team.



Bambo fulfillls a Micro Image order. Had a little trouble with the tape gun, though.



"Hell yeah, BRING IT!" he says.






"gosh Garm, you sure have a lot of toys for me to play with"



Bambo likes TRANCE! (JBL trampoline, anyone?)



And then.... he just takes a nap anywhere. Even on my tC valve cover.



Bambo wants to help detail. Maybe another day.



more to come...

Looks like there are 14 people ahead of you, if you assume 2 weeks per person, it about 28 weeks until your turn comes up. Give or take a week or two for skipped members and travel time.
