2014 Christmas Card Exchange - Tallies are closed. Thanks for playing!
Just a side note for those of us in the US -- the post office has international "Forever" first-class stamps these days. About two bucks, as I recall. This may help with planning/budgeting.
Handy-Thanks for the tip.
I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!
32 on the list...27 in the US and one each in Czech Republic, Australia, Denmark, Canada, and England.
You have until this Saturday to opt out. If you need to, for whatever reason, log into the signup tool as you did to sign up, and on the screen where you clicked 'sign up,' there should now be a link to opt out. Once the list goes out, you no longer have a choice.
Once the opt-out period ends, the list will be automatically sent out (probably sometime Sunday 11/9). If you don't receive it, check your spam folder. If it's not there, PM me your email address and I will forward it.
I don't go in for ancient wisdom I don't believe just 'cause ideas are tenacious It means that they're worthy - Tim Minchin, "White Wine in the Sun"
Double checked those stamps - International First Class "Forever" stamps are US$1.15 each. Not bad at all.

That's it. I'm committed. I signed up for this and signed up for the Reddit Secret Santa. What the heck is wrong with me?
Random conversation: Me: Okay..so I think I get why Zoro wears a bandana
DDD: Cuz it's cool
So, by using the Doctor's reasoning, bow ties, fezzes and bandanas are cool.
Announcement: The opt out period has passed for the 2014 Christmas Card Exchange event.
The email containing the PDF of all addresses of the participants

used to print out your own return address labels. Go to http://www.avery.com/ and look for Avery 8160 in the software area.
Reminder: These addresses are private! Keep the PDF itself private
please!

The list has gone out. If you didn't get it, check your spam box. If you still didn't get it, PM me your email address and I will forward it.
A couple of notes - one of the addresses got messed up somehow - the city, state, and zip are on there twice. Also, you'll notice two names on a couple of them, because we have a couple of couples (actually 3, I think). Also also, Denmark has a lot of weird letters.
Remember to tally your cards as you receive them! Give your fellow CSers the credit they are due!
To tally your cards, sign into the card signup tool and next to the 2014 Christmas Card Exchange link, there is a link that says Tally up! When you receive a card, go and check off that person's name. You can also click on View Tallies to see how many people have checked off your card. (Don't worry if they're not all checked off by the end. There are always some missed. Don't take this fact as an excuse to slack off, however.)
