"The rule is if one of our projects is received by the wrangler more than seven days after the due date, or one of us drops out of a project for whatever reason, that person is welcome to continue posting but is not allowed to sign up for a group project again until four months from the latest date that the project was supposed to be due. No exceptions. This rule applies to participants and to wranglers. Wranglers must mail out projects within one week of the latest date that the projects were supposed to be due. In addition to waiting four months before being able to join a penpal project, the person who has not met the latest deadline must post directly on the penpal thread within a week of missing the latest deadline stating that they have not adhered to the deadline (reason is welcome to be included or does not have to be) and, most importantly, the date on which they will be able to return to participating in the penpal projects. They must scroll back and add themselves to the bottom of the list of any other participants who have not met the late date for any project for 2023. If that is not done, then the member is welcome to participate in the thread with "thanks" and reps and thread chat but not to participate in any future projects for 2023. The reason for this is personal responsibility, so that we have a running record right on the thread that is easy to refer back to when needed. And for the purposes of clarification, if someone drops out before the deadline to sign up has been closed then they are not excluded from future projects because they are still following the rules.

Example: Bitsy misses the late date for a project. Within a week of that late date she must scroll down and find the most recent list of people who have missed the late date in 2023 and copy that list to a new post and add herself. Bitsy's post would look something like this:

'Sorry, I had the bird flu and missed the late date of 2/21/23. I can start participating in new projects on 6/21/23. I have added myself to the list below:

1. Tony (missed the late date of 1/28/23, able to participate 5/28/23)
2. Bitsy (missed the late date of 2/21/23, able to participate 6/21/23)

This rule must be posted in its entirety at the bottom of all new projects that are being wrangled so that members can thoughtfully consider whether we wish to commit to a new project."

I love how we are so excited about the project that we completely ignore the 'sign ups will open on 10/20' part.

LOL! Me, too! BUT, I will be in the hospital on the 20th, and since we are all jonesing for a new project, I decided to post this early.....:)...:). I am having to re quote the whole post, it is "cutting off" the bottom part of my OP, after new signees...:).

nanners....did you mail our packages out today? Please text me the tracking#....appreciate it

Yes! They are mailed out! I can provide tracking numbers for anyone who wants them (easier for me by text). You should all get them on Monday!
Great job everyone! Tommi's is a group participation twichie...I have the full picture to post after everyone gets their package.


Question to pose to all!

I have extra money from the $10 y'all sent me. Would anyone be interested in forwading the extra money to the next wranger that has a heavier or larger package to mail in the future? (ie: Clay's might also use less than the usual $10) I have about $25 left and I don't feel right keeping it! But if we all save extra $$ we could do a larger/heavier project sometime.
I will go with whatever the group decides.


P.S. Clay, best wishes for all going well in the hospital...hope you heal fast and get back home soon.

Thanks, nana for wrangling this project. I am so excited to see them, and esp Tommi's now that you piqued my interest!

Thank you for the well wishes!

I will go along with whatever the group wants to go with.....cuz I am easy like Sunday Mornin'!! lol

GeorgiaMa'am 10-19-2023 08:53 PM

Hmm, a "group participation twinchie" - I'm intrigued!

I have no opinion about the money, one way or the other. I'll go along with whatever everyone else wants. Oh, I just thought of a suggestion: we could have a "free" project at some point. Just all the wranglers send their extra money to the current wrangler and use that instead of people sending money in for that project. - I also like the idea of a heavier/larger project at some time.

Honestly, I'm strapped for cash so anything that was left over from the postage and purchase of the envelope to send the projects to me, I'd rather have back. My workload has literally doubled so I don't know how many more projects I'll be able to participate in, anyway.

If we're doing the whole participation thing for Tommi's I have a picture of a baseboard heater above hardwood flooring.

Bèsame* 10-22-2023 06:58 PM

I received my twinchies!
I love Matilda! However, not to sure about her story??

I got #5. Picture of a ceiling fan. I'll need more clues and directions.

GeorgiaMa'am 10-22-2023 10:34 PM

I received my twinchies! Thank you everybody! I'm so excited, I haven't even looked at them yet, just opened the envelope!

Nanners, I didn't get one from Gemme! Did anybody get two?

GeorgiaMa'am 10-22-2023 10:44 PM

Everyone in this group is so clever!

For Tommi's, I got piece #3 - there's a picture of a window, and part of a ceiling fan.

Sorry, Gemme's were in a plastic baggie with another one. I should have opened them all first! I've got all mine.

nanners 10-23-2023 06:35 AM

I will post the entire picture of Tommi’s puzzle on our Facebook page. I forgot how to post pictures on here. I’m glad everyone is getting their Twinchies.

Gemme, next project if you want to participate I’ll send $10 of that money leftover to Clay for yours if you want me to.

REFUNDS for Twinchies project
 
nanners has asked me to update you all

When she mails her Winter ATC's to me, she will send each of you who joined the twinchies project, a $4 refund.

To save on shipping costs, I will use this for each of you for the Winter Themed ATC's shipping cost, which is $7....and you can send the other $3 to me with your projects

Will this work? If you did not participate in my ATC project, let me know, and I will send yours to you, and pay for the stamp out of your refunds.....please? Thank you!

I finally got started on my ATCs! I thought I would never come up with an idea, but one finally came to me. I'm about a third of the way done.

I am also really wishing my craft room was ready now. I am so tired of being crammed onto a corner of the kitchen table, and having to dig through a giant duffel for my supplies. The main obstacle to getting my craft room ready is moving and getting rid of this giant couch that weighs a ton. Me and all of my friends have such bad physical problems - including just plain old-age complaints - that none of us can move it. I think I'm going to have to call one of those "men and a truck" places.
