  • I'm not dead yet!

    Hi folks

    As the title says, I'm not dead yet.

    I was, however, slightly homeless after a rather sudden and unplanned move at the end of November. Ever tried to pack, move, and clean a house in 8 hours? Not fun, but it can be (sort of) done.

    It's only been recently that I have been able to get stable housing and get the mail re-direct in place.

    That said, the cards that I had bought were lost in the shuffle and I wasn't able to get replacements in time. For that, I do deeply apologize. I also apologize to those that spent their time, effort and money to send me something.

      8 hours?! Holy crap! Well, I'd say that counts as extenuating circumstances, so I think we can allow you to play again next year.

            That's exactly what I said.
            Out loud.

            I don't think I could handle moving in that short a time...

            Glad things have stabilized for you since then.

                  • I got three cards last week and my roommate threw out 2 of them

                    ARGH!!

                    I had opened them but didn't note down the name.

                    Now I don't know what to do, I only have 4 cards not tallied yet but I can't remember the names on those two cards!
                    OF COURSE she decides to clean for the first time in a year and throws out EVERYTHING!!!

                    • 4 days left! I think the only one I'm missing is Carina16 (who still only shows 3 as of last night so if you've gotten her card please check it off I know hers were a bit late).

                      Not the end of the world if they don't get checked off by everyone. I think everyone is safe from bannination this year.
