It was my idea to send Yu a fruit basket. I also floated the idea of sending wine but Yu seems to have the alcohol covered.

In order to send the basket we need to contact someone who works on the project. I was thinking we could ask Alimn if we could send the team to say thanks for the hard work. Who can get into contact with Alimn?

I proposed the idea of sending a giant card filled with bespoke printed-out messages from members of the Dojo some time ago. I'm sure they would appreciate that :)

If someone would be willing to take on this task - acquiring the card, printing out the messages and sticking them into the card, and sending it off - I'd be more than happy to pay for the card.

Yeah I'm up for that, if people can send me some messages I can get a card over, but has anyone got an up to date address?

It might be best to consult someone who has contact with the team on what gift might be most appropriate as well. You never know if they might have a better idea or reasons why idea X isn't as good as idea Y. Perhaps they can just source the gift locally using donated funds. That would still require someone on the inside who is actually willing to help out.

This might be a bad suggestion, but if your own suggestions don't work out, maybe Cedric Biscay or Ryan Payton would be willing to help? It sounded like they visit the team in person every few months. (Obviously everyone shouldn't just randomly reach out to them, preferably someone who either has talked to them in the past or someone that most people here would trust to do it.)

I think I mentioned in the original thread that I was willing to contribute some cash, but obviously it would be preferable if we knew it was going directly through someone we know we can trust.

Yeah I love the card idea. We could have a digital thing we all sign with probably and someone prints it out on a big card. We need to get in contact with someone who is in contact with the team. I say we send one to Cedric's office too because they saved Shenmue and also deserve credit.

I was thinking more along the lines of each member of the Dojo sending their message as a private message to the person handling the card, and once they've all been collected - give it a week or so to make sure everyone gets a chance - that person prints the messages, cuts them out, and sticks them into the card. Does that sound good?

Maybe opening a dedicated thread if this gains enough traction, and we've settled on who is going to do what, would be a good idea?

Sounds great but we still need to find someone who has contact with the team.

The easiest way wouldn't be contact Cedric and tell him our idea?

Well I also want to surprise and gift Cedric too. The man is half the reason Shenmue III even exists right now.
