I'll be updating the OP today with locations I've received via PM. Keep in mind, the only two people who truly need to know your address are the person who will be sending you the notebook and the person who you are sending it to (return address and whatnot).

Do we need to PM you if we're already on the list in the OP?

Only if your location is missing, sir.

Question was for both, I guess. Shipping between countries is a decent personal expense. Are there volunteers to bite the bullet?

Shipping internationally will certainly be rough, and I have a bad feeling it'll sooner or later get lost, but until then, this is going to be so cool. Sent my PM. I'm excited to write some boring shit from Central Illinois for you guys to read.

What if a person on the list gets banned, just skip over them?

OP updated with everyone who's wanted in so far, I think. Thanks for the PMs guys. At this rate only a few people will be able to go 2 pages, so please be kind and make the most out of the front/back of your page. Anyone who wants two pages, PM me a portfolio/deviantart/dribbble/personal website so I can check your work out and reserve two pages for you.

Front and back should be more than enough, when you said two pages a while back I thought front and back counted as two lol. When are you sending that bad boy out?
Edit:just saw the list, is that the order it's going to be sent out?

Not really, now that I think about it. We need to get some geography experts in this beezy to draw out a plan of attack. Today is the last day for sign-ups. I want to send this out by Friday.
Huzah! Another Oregonian! As far as pages go, is the plan to go directly after the previous person? Like use the back of a page if someone didn't use that or start a new one entirely?

Oh we get front AND back? This changes everything.

17's my favorite number! Can't wait for this thing to kick off.

Is the number in the OP when we'll be getting it? Doesn't make sense for it to go to Connecticut and then Florida and then back up the east coast.
I know it's alphabetical but I'm confused.

Khalifa answered me a few posts up about that same question, I thought we were going that way too. Says we need some peeps in here to figure out the best route for us to send it. If anybody can figure out the best route post it up.
Thought I'd give it a go at organizing the travel route for the US. I tried to minimize shipping costs for the most part (although it's tough trying to do Hawaii. I'm not sure if it would be best shipping it directly from CA to HI to OR, or if it's easier to ship it to HI from VT on the way to Australia). I didn't take into account where the cities were, it's only sorted by state. See if it works.

I'm up for joining. I live in Manila, the Philippines.
Looks like a great route to me (and I get to see everyone's contributions in the US before I get it!). Thanks for all your hard work!

Aw yiss! Can't wait, but I'm glad I'm a ways down the list. It gives me more time to think of what I want to do.

How about everyone who participates includes a small amount with the notebook to help for the shipping for the next person?

Doesn't it just make more sense for everyone to pay their own? I mean the burden is spread just as equally and its a lot simpler.
https://mapsengine.google.com/map/edit?mid=zhJHqHtYnvOQ.krP_n6HzXTqk
All right, here's my proposed route. If you didn't provide a city, I just made a generic "State Name" or "Country Name" marker. (I also moved Hawaii to last for convenience's sake. Sorry!)
If I get more cities, I can provide more granularity, but here it is. I made the map editable if you want to add your own place "anonymously."
Well the problem arises when you cross the ocean. That's a hefty fee compared to someone who ships from, say, California to Oregon.

Wait... Where does it start?
Bakersfield CA. It's the blue marker (hard to see on the image, but it's there on the map).
I edited the map to make it a bit clearer. Blue star icon.
EDIT: I modified the original image to make the star more prominent.

I'm happy to be last in Europe and to bear the shipping costs to wherever comes next, if that helps.

I'm in Trumbull, CT, which is closer to NYC than New Haven, so maybe I should get it before cwmartin? Or not. I doubt postage to RI would be any different. Whichever.
It's not a perfect system, people are spread out all across the states, so there will be some inefficiencies here and there. In your case, yeah, I doubt there's much difference.
WhereAreMahDragonz

Probably not. If I'm out of school by the time I get it, I'll be close to the Connecticut border if that helps.
OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather

Gotcha. No big deal.
Nah, I'm not worried about postage, was just looking at efficiency.

My suggestion for shipping costs was that in the event of extreme distances (out-of-state / overseas), the sender / receiver would pay 50% of that shipping rate, and so on and so forth.

I keep seeing this referenced. What does it mean?
Also Thanks for your help with the route fellas.
It's a mathematical problem that basically tries to find the most efficient route between a series of n points (e.g. A salesman traveling from city to city). It's famous for being one of the most prominent problems regarding optimization.
