If for some reason you don't get a response then contact me on my regular name (SandyKay). Please have questionnaires in by Sunday September 27th so that we can get matches done and have them to you by October 1st. Please send Questionnaires to Fall Sister **Rules** 1. You may only participate in this round if you have at LEAST 1,000 post and have been an active member for at least 6 months! No exceptions will be made!! ** 2. Only sign up if you truly intend to follow through and know that you can. If you have any doubts (may be out of town, unable to get online ect) then don't sign up. 3. You are responsible for contacting your sister and to send email, snail mail etc. It doesn't have to be anything big. So don't worry if you feel that you can't participate due to money. Being a sis means making the other person feel special and to pay attention to them. A simple email can do the same. A lot of girls make up a screename on here just for secret sister. That way you can make posts and give gifts to your sister sister right here on the boards. You can also make a free email account to use for sending email to your sister. Just make sure you don't use your real name when you sign up for the account! 4. Three strikes and you are out. After having problems in the past with people not doing their end of things this is necessary. If I receive three complaints and after talking to that person I feel it would be unfair for your sister to keep waiting for emails etc I WILL take you out. If you have to be removed from this round for not holding up your end of the deal, and you DON'T have a darn good reason, you WILL NOT be allowed to participate in other swap meet rounds. 5. If you for one reason or another you cannot continue during this round let me know so that I can reassign your sister to someone else. Life happens, and everyone understands that. 6. Send a form of contact (email, e-card, pm, etc..) at least three times a week and let me and/or your sister know if you can't do this for some reason. Not once a week, or once every other week! THREE TIMES A WEEK! 7. Acknowledge whoever is sending you things. It is just as frustrating to send out emails etc and not to receive a reply back in return. 8. The whole point of Secret Sister is to keep it a secret until we reveal everyone at the end of the round. Don't use your real name or screename when you send things. Just simply sign it, "Your Secret Pal", etc. And if you PM your girlie, or send them an email make up a username just for this.
