@ on elfster you can see all the people who have "accepted" the exchange
Thanks for explaining!!@ there is a thing when you view your own profile you can see the last 5 people to view it. Someone mentioned, during Summer Swap, that you can turn that off, so whenever one of these comes up I am now turning that off in my "edit profile" section, so I don't accidently ruin the surprise LOL
Really? I was EXTREMELY skeptical about elfster but I actually really really like it...I think the moderators and I can agree on - who ever does Secret Santa never year... no Elfster. LOL
Exactly.I'm torn on elfster. A lot of the back end work that moderators have to do on it (for like matchings and stuff) can be a PITA (especially when dealing with international vs not international) - I think the wishlist feature is cool, and I really like the anonymous ask feature.
"Who the heck is this person?" There were people on there with no username, so I had *no clue* whether they were a forumite who qualified for the exchange or some random person who had just stumbled upon the link and wasn't even registered on MUT.*IF* we do it again next year via Elfster I think who ever runs it (be it me or someone else) will need to manually invite people to verify accounts first instead of letting anyone join. That way a check list can be put into place first before the invite is sent out such as did they complete the survery, do they meet the requirements for posts/membership length, etc..
So I guess it's not me again...sniff..sniff.....OMG I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT WHO I HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the very first time I've been paired with someone I'd say I actually know something about even though I'm really a fairly active poster and I feel like it should have happened before now!!!
YAYAY!!!!
For Midsummer, I ended up with @, and it was SO HARD to not do a one-for-her-one-for-me deal, so I mostly went with "Oh, I already have this and love this, so I'll get her one, too!" The end result was the same -- lots of overlapping items for both of us -- but I had already spent the money on stuff for me, so I was just spending money on her! I might have to do that this time, too, for similar reasons.I have my Santees list written down and I am ready to shop! I went on a no-buy just so I could spoil her! (Little worried i still won't get her enough, but i still have college and a car payment). I am so excited to shop for her. She likes the same exact stuff as me so it'll be hard to not purchase for myself too! Lol
So kind of you!!If anyone needs a 20% off Sephora coupon to help buy presents for your Secret Santa, family, etc PM me. It expires 11/10/14 but I will not be using it and if someone else can use it that would be great!
