Minkette Fall RAOK Info & Clubhouse

tatertot · Aug 1st, 2008, 10:06 AM

All of the buddies have been assigned so be sure to check out your email to see who your buddy is

. All of the minkettes are living in the US this round so we will have only one ship date. Pressies must be shipped by the 19th but can be sent earlier if you like

. Let's have a great time and please let me know if you have any questions.

a survey would be great! I have one from the MJ forum I can use but if there's going to be a minkette version, i'll wait for that!

tatertot · Aug 1st, 2008, 10:19 AM

If you all think it would be best to do a survey that would be great

. You can send your buddy a survey to fill out or you can ask specific questions or use the set ones on elfster. You can chat with your buddy anonymously through elfster and if you prefer a survey rather than just questions, that's good too. Whatever works best for you to get to know your buddy

Thanks tat!!

You are the best! I know who my buddy is already!

Anyway, we still have two weeks!!

RaquelleBelle · Aug 2nd, 2008, 06:07 AM

Yay this is so exciting! I know who my buddy is la la la, hee hee hee, hoo hoo hoo!

Wow, I need to calm down.

^haha I like how that smiley's eyeball bounces each time his head is hit lol^

Hi guys, I just wanted to post a reminder. For those who have not done so yet, please log into elfster and put in your addy so your buddy knows where to send your gift. I had a few requests for this so please make sure your profile is up to date. Thanks so much and I can't wait for our first exchange!

shyne1025 · Aug 2nd, 2008, 02:44 PM

hello ladies.. quick question from a RAOK newbie

How can I ship out my pressie to my buddy without her knowing my name? Any tips?TIA!!

Im so excited! so excited!! I got my pressie her gift already!!

tatertot · Aug 2nd, 2008, 02:46 PM

BIG UPDATE- We had an odd number of participants and I had someone from the last round sign-up late last night after not knowing she had to re-sign up for the new one which rounded us out perfectly. This evens out our numbers and insures we all have a buddy and that nobody would be left out

. I had to reset the draw so your buddy may, or may not change. Be sure to check out your email for your new buddy pairing (though it may stay the same) and please let me know if there is anything I can do

.
Thanks again ladies and sorry for the mix-up

Shyne, make sure to check your email for the new updates and let me know if you have any questions.

I had my hubby mail my pressies last time or just switched a few letters in the name and the po was alright with it (actually I don't think they noticed)

.

Also, the buddy you send to is not the one who is sending to you, so they may not recognize your name

.

shyne1025 · Aug 2nd, 2008, 02:52 PM

thanks Tat..

I just checked my elfster and still the same buddy.

GREAT news!! I think they kept everyone the same with the exception of the person missing a buddy so it should only affect a few of us.

sweetart · Aug 2nd, 2008, 03:41 PM

thanks for putting this together tater! How can I find out what my buddy's tPF username is? so i can dig up some dirt?

gypsumrose · Aug 2nd, 2008, 05:31 PM

My buddy got switched. :( I almost bought a bunch of stuff last night and this morning, so I'm glad I didn't! ( :( is only because I had lots of ideas sorted out already - I'm sure I'll like my new buddy too as soon as I can figure out who they are!)

And if we don't have each other as buddies, why does it matter if the number is even or not?

Off to re-think my RAOK strategy!

If the numbers aren't even, then it means that someone is either minus a buddy, or someone else would have to double up...hth!
