The weekend of December 9th & 10th is going to be Trading Spaces weekend in Fandom.

For those of you who don't know how the show works, two families get to re-design a room in each other's homes in a weekend with guidance from professional decorators, construction workers, etc.

This plot will be open to all, but there are some guidelines and that's why I'm giving you a heads up early.

Students

If you have a roommate, both of you must sign up to participate. You'll be re-doing the whole dorm room, not just half of it. If you're interested, please contact your character's roommate OOCly prior to the signups.

Townies/Teachers

You don't have to have all of your housemates permission to play, but you can only request that *your* private space be re-done. In the case of the home-owners, if you'd prefer a public room re-done, please check with all your tennents OOCly prior to signing up.


The two groups will be matched separately (i.e., no students will be re-decorating a teacher's space and vice-versa). Lorelai will be organizing this ICly. I still haven't quite decided on how it's going to come about. I think it's going to be easier to mod NPC construction workers, etc. I also think that Lor will ICly give out the assignments a week or so in advance so that you can go shopping for items you'll need. The expenses will be *handwavy* covered by the school or something. (As you can see, I still have a number of details to work out!).

This is NOT the sign-up post! I just wanted to give you guys enough warning so you had time to contact your roommates OOCly. If you can't reach your roommate, or they seem to have disappeared, let me know and I'll talk to the admins and see what we can do.

If you have any questions about this plot, or suggestions for any of the details I've mentioned that I haven't ironed out, please let me know either here, via email (found on my userinfo page) or via AIM (veronicamarsFH).

Might I suggest that students without roommates get a friend who isn't having their room done help them.

That's definitely a possibility, depending on how many people don't sign up.
