The great CFC chain letter: around the world in 80 days!

[emzie]

So I got the camera. I am going to take the picture soon and plan on sending it out later in the week.

Yay it left the country. This might work!

 

[emzie]

Did this get mailed out, syterion?

 

[Terxpahseyton]

Yeah, what's up with the current delay?

 

[Silurian]

Looks like it could well be 2014 before it gets back to Canada.

Does the US postal service fail at this time of year.

 

[Cutlass]

The Post Office is fine. They're used to the seasonal surge. It's the participants in this little exercise that have been the stumbling blocks right from the start.

 

[GamezRule]

My aunt is a mail carrier. The PO is doing fine.

Well I wonder if Canada will end up being quickest per participant.

I hope the UK is the faster than the US and has the best pics.

 

[Loppan Torkel]

Where is the camera?

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

There should be a rule that you have to put 20 dollars or the equivalent if it hasn't been mailed within a week.

that's a scary thought!

Put? That doesn't make sense.

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

Put? That doesn't make sense.

Put it in the parcel. So if you are lazy for 8 days you must put 20 dollars in the box as a fine.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

So what's the speed of this thing so far, 1 month per participant ?

 

[LucyDuke]

What would be the point?

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

What would be the point?

It would give an incentive to mail faster. This parcel is moving way to slowly.

 

[Traitorfish]

It's not much of an incentive when there's no way of enforcing it.

 

[LucyDuke]

There's also no point and it's dumb to mail cash. Shame is an adequate incentive.

 

[Terxpahseyton]

Alright. So let's all write "Shame on you!" visitor messages on Syterion's profile site.

 

[Whomp]

If it gets to me before the 31st I can hand it off in London. Otherwise, it is probably best to skip me.

 

[Cutlass]

That would cut out at least 3 people in the East US.
