DDF wedding present for AsherO
« on: February 06, 2013, 04:19:07 AM »
Is there anyway to make a thread that AsherO doesn't see?

That being said anyone want to chip in together and get him something really nice?

I think its theoretically possible, but all he'd have to do is sign out of his account. Why don't we just ask him in good faith not to check this thread?
OTOH, why not get his input?

Good points. Another question how much should each person give? Maybe we will do $10 standard, but everyone can write here whatever they amount they want. If someone wants to not disclose the amount they can PM whoever wants to be in charge?

But whoever gives anything gets their name on the present card...

We will need to get an idea of how many people would give $10 to try and figure out the type of present. Suppose I'll add a poll, but posting also helps.

Why not just give him the cash. We all know that's the best present

Simple solution -

Create a google document, where you can have everyone fill in their pledges, and thoughts about what to get... 

Whoever would like to join will PM you, or whoever wants to take charge, and they will forward them a link to the doc.

Obviously you won't give out the link to an unrecognised member. ;)

I don't think people should post their amounts in public, it's a little distasteful.

FTFY
And again, i don't see the desire to get him 'something nice.' We all know the best gifts we received were cash, why not just give him the cash and let him decide what he wants

Cash is nice, but it's not personal.

And something personal is not necessarily nice. I think it's faulty logic

I vote for a DDF honeymoon fund.
Let there be an account where people can transfer to.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Intersting, what kind of account? UA? SQ? DL? Also a Hyatt?
