We have a nice selection and oodles of seeds to choose from

I took a screenshot of offering numbers for everyone to see.

I also took a look at some individual players lists. We still have 11 days to get seeds added in but I wanted to post a reminder about swap specifications.


You must post a minimum of 100 varieties s to play, 70 of which must be NAMED varieties. The other 30+can be whatever you choose. Please do not add in the same seed multiple times. If you have five packs to offer they have to be listed as one listing. Traded seeds are not allowed, seeds offered should be collected by you or purchased.

I will be checking lists on Nov, 28th. If by chance there are players that have not met the swap requirements, they will be removed.

Please tree mail me your address when you have a moment. I like to have all envelopes I dressed and prepared to fill with seeds when packages start arriving.

Please comment or like so that I know you have seen this post.




A side note: is anyone else having an issue when they're posting? This is what I see as I'm typing oh, I have no idea how this is going to post..lol

Wow, that's a lot of seed!! nodding I'm over the 100 mark but am still hoping to add more seeds!

Lisa, I haven't seen anything like that but I'm on a laptop computer. Maybe a phone thing?

We're getting close to time. Hurray!

I haven't seen anything like that when I post from my iPhone. Weird!

I've still got more seeds to post but I probably won't have time until around Thanksgiving.

I'm waiting on some seed orders to arrive, which should be getting here any day now. I was going to see how many new seeds I could add before having to fill out the 100 with older ones.

We're in the middle of the house closing from hell so I haven't entered everything yet. I'm not even sure what my address will be when the swap ends. So I'm going to have to bow out this year. Hopefully we'll be all settled by DnD's swap.

Congrats @Aprilard1!

Sorry Gals, I wasn't trying to say that people needed to hurry up. Smiling

We had a player that didn't understand the 100 packet rule so I thought I would repost them.

I know how time consuming getting a list entered is. I thought if anyone else wasn't clear, it would save time for them entering in seeds if they couldn't hit the 100 marker.

I didnt realize that 100 packs would be a lot. *Blush* I will lower the minimum to join in the next swap.

I wish entering seeds in wasnt so time cosuming!

I'll be waiting until the afternoon of the 18th to scan lists to be sure requirements have been met.

I'm going to post a new game under the game thread in the AM.

I will be posting mine soon too. I am wrapping up the collecting and processing right now, so as soon as I get time... I'll list them all.

Lisa, did you mean to say the deadline is Nov. 28?

I thought I was keeping up with everyone's offerings by frequently looking at 'recent events' BUT am pleasantly surprised to find things on the full tradelist that I definitely haven't seen before. Now I'm going to have to go through the whole thing soon because, you know...don't want to miss anything that I absolutely must have! Drooling

@greenishpinky, yes I did!

@poisondartfrog and @janinilulu, I swear I was going to make a post asking how everyone was viewed lists. I go through each list individually because I can't keep up with the added items thread. I don't even know if some of the newer players even realize that they can look at individual swap lists.

I'm sure your comments will prompt them to ask questions if they didn't already know

I was just looking at seeds offered. We are now at 2704 unique varieties being offered. There are 3947 packs of seeds being offered in the swap. This is impressive seeing where as there are only 18 players in the swap that have added seeds in. There are a few that need to add in several packets to make it to 100.

I've added in 400 packs myself. If my neck feels better, I'll add in more varieties.

I thought we could play a NEW GAME. I will not list the name of the player but this game will be a guess on the highest number of wishes by one player {this is available to the hostess only in the swap details page}.

NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME>>>NEW GAME

Please take your best guess on what the highest number of wish listed seeds is for a single player in the swap.

Please do not pick your own wish listed number. The player who has the most wishes number will be compared to the second place wisher as far as numbers go.

This is a one guess game so there will be no changing your guess once it has been posted.

GO!

I do the same thing: go to the full tradelist and then view each list separately. It's a little less overwhelming!
