The cut-off is tomorrow.  I think everyone is signed up but just wanted to make sure just in case there are some slackers....

So will elfster then pick for us on the 18th?

dasmel30

Yep they will do it automatically.  You should receive an e-mail with the person it drew.

I wanted to do it and posted when it was brought up but not sure if I missed a post on it since I've been busy at work and going to classes this month! Do I need to do something/ sign up somewhere else?

How will we get addresses/where to send things?  I didn't enter mine on Elfster... should I have?

If you enter your address on elfster it will only give it to the person that draws you.

Lisa6255

I have no idea how elfster works- do I need to join then is there a way to find our list? Help!

Lisa:  Here is the thread that talks about it and where to sign up:

As far as the addresses, I am not sure if Danielle is correct or not.....

Maybe it could be something that we will have to ask anonymously of our recipient.

Thanks Mel, I signed up!

festivegal2008

Crap, I forgot to enter mine. I'll get on there and put my address in right now.

umm i don't think the address thing is correct cause if you click on anybodys name and they have their address entered it will show it to you... hmm

festivegal2008

Actually I can't find anywhere on the site where or how to enter my address so my person is just gonna have to ask. :-( Unless someone here can help me out and tell me where to enter it before the end of the day! ETA: Never mind, I figured it out!

I searched the Help section on Elfster and it looks like Mel has to set the group settings so that only the person who draws your name will see the address.  Here's the full response to the question "make mailing address private":

That may be done, but it is something that the organizer needs to set up for the whole group. For the group that you are currently organizing, it looks like you have correctly set this up to limit the address and email information to be seen only by the person who has picked your name in the draw.

I do have it set this way so I'm not sure why it is showing it to everyone?  Maybe now that the draw has taken place the restrictions will work.
