I love the Ge and all the friends I have made, but I think you shouldnt put a end cap on amount spent, I totally think if you want to spend over and you can go for it.
Secondly I agree that when you sign up you should be ready to make the committment to send your gift so that it arrives on time. I mean if you get an overseas buddy then you know it must be sent earlier than a buddy thats from the states, then if a participant does not follow these rules they shouldnt be allowed to participate again without admin deciding whether their reason was justified, you know like an emergency health issue or something. I do feel sorry for those who in good faith signed up and participated in all the teasing and what not and then didnt get their gift yet and were almost ready to sign up again. It really takes the fun out, because everyone else has recieved and moved on. I hope that made sense. And admin I hope this didnt come off too whiny, I certainly didnt mean it that way and totally appreciate all the work you do to make the ge a success. I am hooked! |
