Watch Reveal
For those that do it, how do you believe it should be done.


1. Just let it show up one day on the WRUW thread.

2. Post a seperate thread revealing your new pride and joy.

3. Post a teaser thread anouncing that your getting one before you have it in hand.


Being a rookie I just want to make sure I do it the proper way. Please help me out here.

Well, one can only hope to reach those heights already set so high by those who have raised the bar so high.

I know I may never get there, but one can always try.

He sure missed it!

I agree with the separate thread though, tease or not (at this point...) it needs its own and proper introduction!
