I'm here, I'm ready and....

oops!
I just realized I counted the wrong way and there are about 2hrs to go.
Takes deep breath and walks away.

@luvgrtdanes. I'm thinking I'm going to leave it at 3 UNLESS @poisondartfrog can advise me soon...

TO ALL PLAYERS, IF YOU HAVE SEEDS WISH LISTED FROM MARIPOSA THEY ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

I just looked back at the first three years and I used 4, which seemed to work out well, but 3 is probably okay, too. With three, you decrease the total unearned dibs per person over the course of the swap. You can review the swap host view for last year and see what you used then for comparison. I didn't host, so I can't see that one.

I'll go in and change it to 4.I trust that you know better than I do.

I know the feeling; spent the last 2 days with my grand kids, ages almost 4 and 2 1/2. I'm completely exhausted, but they are so much fun!

@janinilulu, your killing me last minute entries! Did you grow the codonopsis lancelota from seeds I shared with you? I got it from the Netherlands years ago, it took 3 years to bloom for me and then died!

Almost time

The seed originally came from gw's kms4me in 2011. I almost always forget to collect them, as they grow under and up the lilacs, losing themselves in the foliage. Some years they don't set seed, but this year I noticed them and grabbed a few pods.

We have a winner in the guessing game.. it's faerygardener. She was the closest to the highest number of wishlisted items...

The highest number was 544 and she guessed. 530... That's allot of wishes!!!

@faerygardener, if there's anything on my have lost that you would like, let me know!

How can I give back seeds of Lavandula angustifolia 'Rosea' that I bought last night? Can I retrieve the dib that bought it?

thanks for any consideration

@bluespiral, you can retract a dib BUT you lose that dib.

Thank you Lisa!!!

Thank you Lisa, too. Those seeds just came to me from elsewhere, so I'll give these back to the swap.

Anyone else having trouble with the starting time? I reload my wishlist page at exactly 7 but have to reload it about 5 times before I can dib It happened last night and I just thought maybe I was rushing it but t happened again tonight.

Yes, it's opening 40-ish seconds after 5 p.m. for me.

ETA: Or maybe a little more than 40 seconds.

Even after mine started and my tickets showed up, I got error messages for the first few items I dibbed on saying I did not have tickets, so I missed those. The whole experience was glitchy this time. Better alert @Dave.

Same here Ronnie - lags by a minute or two. I did get everything I'd planned for yesterday and most of my selections for today so I'm not really worried about it. I'd thought perhaps it was a West Coast thing - but you're East, so that's not it.

I had the same issue both nights, I thought it was my laptop

I had the same problems, late start and continued "error".

I thought it was me.
