Description:

I thought I'd try running this, since the original co-ordinator still doesn't have internet and the send-by date has come and gone now.

This is an email swap, and will ask some very personal questions (so if you don't feel comfortable - best not to join). Really think through the answers and be as honest as you can.

The catch is that after you have received your emails from your partners, you have to reply and ask each partner 2 additional questions based on their answers - they can be as personal as you want! Maybe one of their answers was really intriguing, and you want to know more? So be prepared to answer some really personal questions.

We will have 5 partners to send our emails to, and any one can join. But please don't flake, this is an email swap so it is easy and doesn't cost you anything.

Here are the questions, they are a random selection of very personal, and not so personal.

does anyone think i should put the sign up and send by dates back a bit so more people can sign up?

audrey 09/20/2009 #

hopefully everyone from the dropped swap will see this one and join. I have had my answers for a week now.

Thank you for doing this, I had fun writing my answers and i was worried that they were going to be wasted :)

tweeandbiscuits 09/20/2009 #

I have all my answers saved ready to send as well, I spent almost 2 hours typing it all up so I was determined not to have that time wasted :D

I am so glad that my answers are not going to waste!!

pumpkinniki 09/20/2009 #

How many questions do we send each partner?

pumpkinniki 09/20/2009 #

I mean answers lol

tweeandbiscuits 09/20/2009 #

You send all the main questions to each partner, then 2 extra questions of your own, each of your 5 partners will send you 2 questions, which you reply to :)

You said this has 5 less questions than the original swap. I don't want to take the time to compare, but I already answered and had saved to my computer the original 55 questions. I'm sure I'm not the only one who did that. So I think it would be best if you used the same list of questions as the original swap. Also, the questions in your list are numbered wrong. It starts over after question 9. So you'll want to check that as well. Thanks.

tweeandbiscuits 09/21/2009 #

That is the original list of questions. The 5 more was the extra questions you have to ask. I thought 5 was too many with a quick turnover, so I changed it to 2 questions that you have to ask your partners and answer

tweeandbiscuits 09/21/2009 #

whew, at last. just taken me 3 attempts to get the questions to number properly
