What you think a good chain length is? If we're thinking business shipping, 5-9 business days, + 10 day grace period to send the box along, that's 2-3 weeks per person. Since the GE's are 4 months apart, I think that would indicate 10-12 people per chain. Assuming we start with fifty people, maybe we have five boxes of each going around a ring. Once the first person gets the original box back, they send it to a different chain.
I think this would work. I like math.  I am happy to be the "chain" coordinator. |
I think you would be a GREAT coodinator!!! If I can help..I'd love to!!! Keep me in mind!!
Also I was thinking that when the box gets to the last person in the chain....why not have them send it to the next CHAIN...instead of the same person that started it...that way they only have to ship out that box once!
) And that would also depend on how many chains people sign up for!! Will take some definate planning...and tracking
