This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

[coalcube]

I am the sock with the tear-away face

Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace

I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

Letters post?

[(Anonymous)]

When does the letter post get posted? Does it have to wait until Friday when signups open?

I haven't gone back to check, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't go up until the signups open.

SA Never mind, I just looked and it looks like in recent years they do usually go up at least a day or two before signups open.

I went and looked on

[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<lj-user="yuletide">') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

I went and looked on <lj-user="yuletide"> to see when it was opened in previous years.

2019 - October 25, the day signups opened
2018 - October 5, with signups not opening until October 10
2017 - September 27, with signups not opening until October 1
2016 - September 28, with signups not opening until October 1

So if we were going by 2016-2018 rules, the letters post would be due right about now or overdue. However, if we're going by last year's precedent, then it won't be up until Friday.

The reason there was wank about this was because the letters post used to be unofficial and “anyone” could post it, but the spreadsheet volunteers were territorial about it.

Now only morbane can post it iirc and she doesn’t have a set schedule.
