.... that I created an RSS feed for LiveJournal shortly after creating the community: [livejournal.com profile] stl_feed

So if any LJers reading this want to add us to their flists (a mirror community wouldn't be feasible for obvious reasons), go right ahead.
I've already added the link to the "Useful Information" category on the profile and in the linklist. :)

Our first giveaway has ended and the winner should have her copy of The Iron King in a few days. Again, congratulations! :D

I'm planning a new giveaway soon, but I'm open to suggestions should anyone have any. (See also: how to make my TBR pile grow.)
I'm currently without an internet connection at home, so I'll be online only sporadically. I do however have access to my email accounts 24/7, which means any and all comments here will reach me.

Meanwhile! I was wondering whether you guys would like linkspam type posts every now and then to offsite giveaways.

Poll #3333 Linkspams

First of all: commenting is open to everyone, anonymous or not.
If a giveaway is hosted here there are a couple of things you might like to know:

Dreamwidth Users:

This should be fairly straightforward. If you have a DW account and comment on an entry here, I (or your giveaway host du jour) will have a way to contact you, either through your account email or via a comment on your DW.

OpenID Users

What's OpenID, you ask? Well, it's a distributed identity system, meaning you can use one login across many websites. Chances are pretty good that you already have an OpenID, for example through your LiveJournal account [username.livejournal.com would then be your OpenID], or Flickr, or Google, or Yahoo, etc. pp. This site should be quite helpful in that regard.
Dreamwidth lets you set up an OpenID, which is awesome because a) you can upload up to six icons b) you're more easily identifiable without having to resort to IP addresses, and c) you have some control over your comments, such as deleting them.
I encourage you to use your LJ account should you have one.

Anonymous Commenters

If you are none of the above or don't want to bother (trust me, I understand), then providing an email address or another easy and reasonably secure way to contact you is - well not crucially important, but close.
IP tracking is on, so I know who you are, but unless you check back manually you won't know that I've answered your comment and I don't have any other way to contact you.

And finally ....

If you would like to have a Dreamwidth account, tell me and I will send you an invite (preferably to your valid email address). :)

Hi everybody!

This is just a short post to essentially get things started around here. Naming-the-comm credit goes to the ever brilliant [personal profile] effex! :D

To copy-pasta the profile:

The title of the comm and the community description pretty much say it all, but:

If you read, or watched, or listened to something that you loved and if you want others to share in that love, this is the community for you. Simply put: if you are planning on doing or doing a giveaway, you should pimp it here!

Rules:

1) This will be an open community, but it should still be a positive and safe place. If anyone is found to be disrupting that, prepare to face consequences.

2) These rules are subject to revision. If I do so, I'll tell you and post the old and new rules for comparison. If you have comments or changes to propose, please do so!

3) You can host your giveaways on your own DW, or LJ, or website, or you can host them here.

4) Including your reasons for doing the giveaway, a link (if applicable), your deadline and any conditions that might apply (such as whether you'll ship internationally or only to certain countries) in your giveaway post would be great. :)

5) Contests are cool too, as long as there's a prize of some sort and you're doing it to share the love. ♥

6) Keep the tags simple, but useful: giveaway, books, contest - you get the idea.

7) Please keep the giveaways fair and honest. Failing to fulfill your commitment or using sockpuppet accounts will lead to a warning - at the very least.


We are all about that - sharing the love. I will post the very first giveaway sometime this weekend when I'm a little less busy, and I'm hoping for lots of participants! :D
