Since there are 14 of us, we would each be getting 13 boxes if we all shipped to everyone. But if we knock 3 out for each person, then that leaves us with each getting 10 boxes. mcbackus, cheese and I all live within 3 hours of each other...no reason we should ship to each other. And that would leave one other person for us to take off our list. I think this would work.


I think that might make it a bit more difficult for Ken to assign who ships to who. The fun of the Mystery Swap is shipping and recieving from everyone involved.


Thats true. Good point.

While I, like most here, don’t foresee a problem at this point with shipping every 3 weeks, not being prescient we never know what will come up a couple months from now. Extending it to 10 months is closing in on a year long commitment, which given the economy, human nature, and any number of factors, seems exponentially longer than than 5.5 months regardless of what the math says.

I say drum up two more people, and split it up into two simultaneous groups of 8 at $25 each, or just run it as is in two groups of 7 going concurrently. Everyone still gets to participate, it doesn’t run as long, which means that if it goes well, everyone gets into Mystery Swap 5.0 even quicker. :)

o, we have one person who has dropped out, so are now at 13 people for 9 1/2 months..
chances are by the time this starts, we will be down one or two more..so likely will end up with 11-12 traders for around 8 months.
Is everyone ok with that?
