DO NOT DELETE ITEMS ONCE YOU HAVE POSTED THEM

Premise
No real premise. Just something to pass the time while the winter is here. Well, at least for those of you who have a winter. I hate Arizona winters (Michigan snow-lovin' boy through and through, here.)

Deadlines
Submissions posted (including sweeteners): Thursday, January 24, 5:00pm MST
Summary of submissions posted (by me): Thursday, January 24, 10:00pm MST (or earlier)
Want lists due: Sunday, January 27, 8:00pm MST
Results posted: Sunday, January 27, 10:00pm MST (or earlier)

Method of finding trades
We will be using TradeMaximizer with the following options:

* Linear Priorities
* Duplicate Protection

For details on TradeMaximizer, including how to use linear priorities and duplicate protection, consult its Wiki page:

http://www.boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/TradeMaximizer

I will post the formatting required once the final entries are in. In addition, I will be the sole person running TradeMaximizer, and my results (open to public scrutiny, of course) will be the official ones.

Rules
There are no rules. I tire easily of them. Well, there's one rule: You must trade geek items only. That is, games are obviously preferred, but DVDs, video games, computer hardware and software, and so on are fine. Check with me if you're uncertain. However, I ask that you be sensible; don't list fifteen VGA cables and expect me to be pleased.

GeekGold arbitrage? I don't care one way or the other. If people don't like it, they don't have to put it on their want list. So go nuts! Again, though, try to be sensible. I don't want to see a whole page of nothing but your GeekGold.

How to List
* Please list sweeteners using either the GAMEID formatting (prefered, for example: Puerto Rico) or a link to the game's page (this will look like http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/3076).

* You must accurately describe your game's condition, language, edition, etc.

* You should choose a photo that best represents the game you are trading (language, edition, and the like). If there are none suitable in the database, pick the one that's closest and make a note in your item listing.

* You must submit a want list for each game you are offering. If you don't want to trade, submit a blank list.

Policies
* Traders from all countries are allowed. Specify your restrictions on shipping in your listing. I encourage, but do not require, setting your shipping policies to allow for all countries. An easy way to keep things under control is to set an upper bound on the cost you're willing to pay.

* I reserve the right to remove games from the list for whatever reason, especially those which I feel violate the premise of this math trade. If you are on the bad traders list, your games will be removed.

* Use the related forum thread for questions and discussions of this math trade (however, for questions on individual items, please leave comments on the item itself, here on the list).

* Do not submit want lists until the summary has been posted.
