kindness_saysIt's miserable and magical, oh yeah... Tonight's the night [to not forget to open Yuleswaps]!
Sorry, swappers. We did not forget about you! We had a plan! The large appliances in my home are just not cooperating! But here we are -- it's 2022, and postal services work again! (As well as they ever did, anyway.) Hopefully this year we will spend less time on various countries' postal websites!
1) Please give us a heads up if you know your country can't ship somewhere that isn't noted on this list, which has been so useful to us the past few years! (Thank you to whoever shared it with us two years ago.) For instance, last year if you lived in the US, you could technically mail to Australia, but the USPS had suspended service, so any swappers would've had to use a more expensive courier service. (We know many of you do this anyway, but if we can avoid forcing that on you when matching, we try.)
2) Please commit to checking in on time! This means on Swaps Central by the end of the last sending day (this year it's Saturday, November 19th).
We will email-remind you of this deadline a few days before and again shortly after it's passed! We do track late check-ins and will ban participants who are persistently difficult to communicate with.
(Related: if "email back tomorrow" is super hard for you right now, BOY DO WE FEEL YOU -- but maybe swaps is not for you this year. That's okay! We still like you! We'll see you next year!)
All right, enough of that.
( 2022 SCHEDULE! REMINDERS! SIGN-UPS! )
