Donna, I wouldn't worry. I know everyone is anxious to find their SB but the last few GEs have extended over a couple of days. It's really no biggy. A couple of people signed up through 3 days past the "closing date" and we have 1 so far, which is great! :) I would expect that we will get our SBs tomorrow, if we're going considering previous GEs.

As for the deadline being pushed back, I don't think that's a problem. But, really, if you're 2-3 days late past the deadline, I would hope that no one would freak out about it as long as you make a post to your SB :) It'll be worth the wait, I'm sure!

Personally, I wouldn't mind pushing the deadline back to, say December 10ish. That way it's closer to Christmas when packages arrive! :D

I don't mind if it is pushed back, but why not advertise the fact it was kept open, why not change the thread title to Sign up extended three days or so forth, otherwise how are people to know. The reason we had the one late sign up was because I PM'd Cess, Lilo's mom and asked her to join on the last day, right away she said she was afraid it was to late, but I told her to go ahead, otherwise she would not have signed up because she thought the deadline passed. So keeping it open for several days longer and not stating that is probably a waste of time because the first thing people read is the first post that states the deadline. I just had a few emails from past GE
people and apparently there are late sign ups all the time, but the shopping deadline does not get extended........:( I am a communicator and I guess I naturally expect when someone runs an event they communicate changes in the rules as they occur.

opps duplicate post
