I understand, but there is some of us that don't have pointmen because we are lone wolfs. He said that the last stragglers were sent out early Feb. It is now mid-March. I did wait 2 weeks after that to ask and at first tried PMing. I then waited a couple of other weeks and still nothing. It isn't like I'm half way across the world, I'm just on the other side if the state.
I dont expect individual responses, but a couple of words of update every few weeks would be nice. Again, I'm not trying to be rude or impatient. I'm just trying to make sure if there us a problem on my end that I can take care of it.
Not a problem either. I was just sensing we were approaching a general attacking nature, when every case is perhaps unique, but perhaps not. You all may have the same problem, or it may be otherwise.
Steps to take.
1. Check the point man thread. Is there one for your area? You didn't have to know them. If Dean thought you were close enough, he went ahead and sent them to the pointman. As for Missouri, I don't remember if it was Dean or Ray, but I'm pretty sure one of them. Lex, did you check with the other guys from Sweden who got their cards? Odds are Dean sent one package to Sweden and they may have yours. As for Brazil, all I know is Dean mailed a package, you'll have to wait until he checks on it and posts.
2a. If you have a pointman in your area, check with that person.
2b. If not continue on the chart.
3. Does Dean have your full name, address and screenname? If not, make sure he has it. PMing him is not the best way as he has said many times. If you pmed it, odds are he either didn't get it or its buried.
4. Post again once all of this is covered.
5. Wait - I know it seems weird, but remember Dean has a son in college, 3 more kids at home, is the coach/commisioner of their Baseball league, works and runs Gamers. He may well be looking into it, but hasn't posted yet. You are also not the only person still waiting. Mailing each individual package to people who didn't go through a point man is extremely tedious and expensive. Not to mention the time consuming nature of checking all of the lists to make sure. Each package takes about an hour of work to get it all squared away - multiply that by 300 packages, and you get the idea. I'm sure Dean will post an update soon, but I know he is busy with Baseball starting up right at the moment - hence no SHNN the last two weeks either. I did however, mention it to him on Sunday, so he will be checking in on this soon.
