Not sure where best to post this. I emailed with Nilly about doing the Holiday/Year End gift exchange this year. I was looking at using elfster to do the organizing of it. Nilly will still organize the Slacker Exchange.

I know this is earlier than we normally do it, but I for one like having time to send a note or treat or two before the main gift.

No idea what Elfster is, but if it makes things easier on someone, I'm down.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I like the idea of starting earlier.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Must investigate Elfster. I like the idea of teasing treats before the big treat. And now that we have 3 Buffistas in Colorado, it isn't instantly obvious it is from me when I send something from here.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is there a reason the Elfster page lists a $25 limit?

I think it defaults to that unless you change it.
