              We have 8, possibly nine. I got an email from someone else while the site was not working but she didn't confirm if she was joining us or not. Will give it a few more days. Seven USA, one UK, and one Canada.

                I decided to give it a few extra days so signups will close on Wednesday November 12 instead. Then you'll have until the 19th to opt out.

                      I have counts going back to 2010 when we had 59. I've been doing the exchange longer than that; I know at least one year there were over 60.

                        Pixilated here ... I am not 100% sure there will not be another Canada Post strike just in time for Christmas.

                        Will keep you updated.

                          First comment: Yeah, I miss the days of lots of cards. But a lot of people seem to have either gone quiet or left the group entirely.

                          Second comment: Don't bet on it ....

                            Okay, so it's Wednesday and opt-out is technically over but I'm behind so I will have the list out by the weekend at the latest.
