ok- so even with GCGs name and my extra name, I still have people who want to play.
And I really feel shitty that people got left out b/c I jumped the gun.
so... I'm going to undo the draw. I know people are going to be disappointed, but everyone in this exchange is cool.
So sorry! But I'd rather redo it then have people left out. The new draw will be as soon as everyone has a spot. Hopefully asap.
Again, I'm really sorry! I feel like I suck at this :( I didn't know it's be this hard. :(K, I'm not really posting anymore but I stayed in the exchange because I still love this community. ANYway Lola, running the exchange, or any group thing, isn't easy. It always requires more time than you thought. We appreciate your efforts.
So on that note, has the draw been redone now? Because I got a second notification email and when I clicked through this time I got a different name.
Lysondra
04-14-2008, 09:11 AM
The draw was done twice. Just now. We all got new people. (which is why there's a glaring blue bird on the screen)
Also, B, can you out GCGs last person who flaked? Thanks!
Lola Rose
04-14-2008, 09:11 AM
yep the draw has been redone. The new name is the final name.
Thanks B, I thought it be less work for sure :P lol.

According to what I have, Taylorlila was the one who drew GCG last time. Must say I'm kinda surprised she flaked.
I'm excited about my draw. Shopping for her will be sooooooo up my alley ;D ;D
Lola Rose
04-14-2008, 09:31 AM
That suprises me too, is she still around?
eta- just looked her up, she hasn't logged on in almost 2 weeks, and it's been much longer since she posted last. She mentioned breaking up with her bf in her last few posts tho....
Lysondra
04-14-2008, 09:33 AM
Last post by Taylor was in the Random Thread... let me put it that way.

I was all a bit confusing there for a second, I thought I'd signed up 4 times by accident! I got people I don't know really well so its gonna be fun investigating them. :detective :) Can't wait to start shopping!! Have loads of work to do so spying will have to wait till I get home, can't wait!!!

I'm excited too...
I got the elfster email before this so I was a little worried i had drawn 2 names somehow. Anywise...time to go a searchin'

Well I am so impatient I already bought some stuff for my FIRST draw last night and know I have a new one!
Bridgette
04-14-2008, 10:02 AM
DO NOT. One of them smells funny.sniffing armpit
Must be me. I'm sorry Lys. I asked if I should back out of this and was told if anyone didn't want me in....fuck 'em. So :neener:
Guess it's good I've been sick and slow the last day or so. I would've bought some stuff for my first draw (walrus?) and it would SO not have worked for the second one.
I'm excited to shop though. This is just what I need to get off my crappy-feelin ass and get to the store for goodies n meds.
Lysondra

Getting Bridgette fucking sucks man. Not only does she smell funny, all she wants is money money money. That, and she apparently wants to grow weed in a tiny silver container.

I guess I missed where we were all getting new people.

I just realized I was doing research for the wrong person last night. D'oh.
Lola Rose
04-14-2008, 12:49 PM
I'm really sorry. I messed up, either way. One person dropped out, other people wanted to be in it, I deleted someone who I shouldn't have.....
I'm doing my best.
Bridgette
04-14-2008, 01:36 PM
Ok, I've already ordered stuff online. Dammit! I'm gonna be fidgeting with this package for the next, like, 6 weeks!! :O

You're doing a great job! Thank you for making sure that everyone who wanted to be was included! Fortunately we have a totally awesome group of walruses so I'm sure the 2nd draw was just as good for everyone else. I know my person is awesome!

come on people! Do your info!
ajbaer

Here's some info on me:
25 y/o very "outdoorsy". I would choose a hike on the appalachian
mountain trial with my two doberman pinschers vs. going out to the bar at night.
I'm fairly new to dancing so I don't have much makeup, but my collection is growing!! I love urban decay, makeup forever and bare minerals. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a book on how to do high end model/dancer makeup. I really like to learn about that type of fashion. I have books on how to do daytime reg. makeup....but not the cool stuff. If you're really good at it, and want to make your own "helper" book that'd be awesome.
Lush is my new "thing" and I HEART comforter. I really like the bubble bars over the melts or bombs. Karma is also a favorite. I really like the tea tree toner, but haven't bought any yet, just tried it out a few times
I just got my Boobs done! I don't know how that helps my new friend, but hey thought I'd throw it out there
I'm not really a big crafty or collectibles person. I don't keep things that I don't use on a weekly basis around, and trinkets just don't strike me (unless their incredibly unusual...like quartz or geods)
I'm not one for perfumes or sprays. I like Bath and Body works orchid or japanese cherry blossom.
I can always use jewelry as I have almost none! Handmade or store-bought..it matters naught.
My favorite colors are deep purples, blues, and hot pink/black combo.
Gosh, I feel like a whore now....like I'm talkin' to a sugar daddy.
Really, I'm easily pleased and ANYTHING is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

ps/disclaimer: i understand. i'm not like, pissed at anyone or whatever, it's just a bit irritating.

Whoever has me...you're just gonna have to wait a week or so to get my delivery info...I'm in the process of moving and I can't give the new address until I know I've been approved for the place!

LR I have a feeling it may be a good idea to PM everyone to let them know that we have new Buckets.

You haven't messed up at all. In fact, you're doing a great job:)
I messed up last night because the person listed their real name, not their SW name, so I thought I got someone else:D I've made sure I'm researching the right person this time though.

Hey people. LizzieBorden is me. I said I was 'LizzieSondra' but I guess the joke wasn't as obvious as I had intended. (Get it, short for Lysondra is Lizzie...Lizzie Borden? DAMNIT.)
AND I AM STILL A CRANKY WALRUS.

I would just like to say a big public thank you to Lola
and a big huge "Please forgive me" to everyone else
I was planning on withdrawing from this exchange however the names got drawn and then the drama over me being too hard to shop for and all that... and I realised.. well.. I was assured in the last one I wouldn't get a flake.. and I did. How do I know it wouldn't happen again? It was one thing to get flaked upon with the V-Day exchange... that is a forgive-able offense... however... twice?!!
I just can't forgive about being flaked upon twice. So I decided to withdraw. Thus the hassle...
the positive is that someone who really did want to be part of the exchange has taken my place so all is not lost.. and this makes things even more interesting!
Once again a big huge THANK YOU to Lola ... you are awesome woman!
and a huge PLEASE FORGIVE ME to everyone else.
I will go back to lurking now.
Lola Rose
04-14-2008, 07:55 PM
ya, I'll pm everyone, good idea lys.
I feel good about the decision, and I'd do it again if I had to go back. That's what's important at the end of the day.
Lysondra
04-14-2008, 07:56 PM
That was Sunshine's advice, not mine. Lol. :P
My advice was to take a shower and give me my original draws back, hoar.
