Trudy Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Secret Bunny 2009 is now open. Click the events tab in the menu bar. Easter is 12 April. I will make matches TWICE. Once next week and once on 13 March. You will not get an email. I will make a post once I've made matches - go into the system to get your info. Make sure you update the system. I really don't like hounding people to do that. Make sure you THANK your Secret Bunny once you receive a gift - I don't care if you detest what they sent you, thank them anyway. Make sure you put WHO the recipient is on the package - some households sign up more than once. Package doesn't need to be addressed to the pet(s), but please make sure the person receiving the package knows who it is for. $20 gift package PLUS shipping, if you can only send a $5 value gift, please do not sign up. This is supposed to be fun. You are not obligated to have evil peeps (evil elf equivalent?) send PMs or make posts to get info. There is a spot in the sign up to provide info, sometimes that is all the info the SB needs. Do not contact me if somebody hasn't asked for more info, I'm not going to contact them. Doesn't mean your Bunny doesn't like you You are not obligated to post pictures of what you received - really, it isn't required to participate (but please make sure you have thanked your bunny either by snail mail, in person, by PM or by post (and maybe send a pm to point out the post) Event Rules & Terms of Service * One package will sign you up one time, two packages will sign you up two times, etc. * SAVE the email responses you get from each entry - they will include links back to each package and will allow for easy tracking * The gift limit is $20 plus your shipping charges * If you are unable to participate for ANY reason after you have received a match, click the SUPPORT link provided on each page at any time and submit your notification. Until you do so, you are still responsible for event completion. * Check the event system for updates. The event system will let you know the status of your package(s). * Update your package status, there are 3 levels. Acknowledge Match, Shipped Package, and Received Package. * Gifts don't have to just be for the pets, they can be for the humans too. Packages shipping within the same country must be postmarked by March 30. Packages shipping overseas must be postmarked NO later than March 23. * We will accept entries until March 13. Matches should be made at least weekly, more often if there are enough names to work with. If you are signing up late, be aware that you may need to send your package using a priority shipping method for it to arrive in time. * Matches are automated and made at random. Requests for personalized matching can not be accommodated. Historically we have had a few entries each year for other pets; non Greys, non dogs, etc. If you do not want to participate for 'any' matched user, it is best to not participate at all. * We reserve the right to close the event signup at an earlier or later date that specified above. ** Failure to complete your obligation will make someone and their pets very unhappy. Greytalk reserves the right to remove access to those who fail to meet their obligation without reason.

Guest Spencers_Greyt Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Is this just like the Secret Santa event? Same premise but related to the Easter Bunny instead? I know if seems obvious but I want to make sure since Secret Santa was my first event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless somebody sent them already, you shouldn't see anything other than the number you have coming to you. Can I please ask you, should the person acknowledge right away that they have your name and then it would show on your screen that it was acknowledged. Thanks and sorry to be a pest.

Trudy Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 all matching has been completed. Make sure your packages get out in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trudy Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 For those that I matched last night, please make sure you are showing that you are receiving the correct number of packages. There was an issue with the match last night and when I 'fixed' it, it broke differently. I fixed it by hand tonight - in theory. So please make sure you are receiving the correct number of packages in your events tab info. And sending the correct number. If something is wrong, let me know please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
