Burn It Group Question
I know that several people have expressed interest in being in more than one Burn It group so that they can get more music. I may change the group sizes depending on how everyone feels, so take a minute to vote and let me know how big you want your Burn It group to be.

personally, I feel that if some people want to participate in more than one group then that's their prerogative. but if I get put in a group with 6 or 7 people, spend the money to send that many cds out and still receive only a couple of half-assed cds b/c everyone else is too lazy to do their part, I'll be pissed. I hope I'm not the only one that feels that way. it's just a real waste of my time and money if people aren't going to participate after they sign up.
.: girl said on July 1, 2004 12:24 AM :: link it :.I would prefer larger groups, because in the end you only get 3 CDs. (It would be different if everyone got your CD too - send 4, get 4 back.) I still think that people should be allowed to sign up for 2 groups though, if nothing else.
.: Christine said on July 2, 2004 12:43 AM :: link it :.Ditto what girl said. For the last 2 Burn-It's, I haven't received all my cd's but I'm still eager to participate. I'm hoping bigger groups will be the answer this time around...
.: Carla said on July 3, 2004 11:16 PM :: link it :.32 votes so far. 14 say stay. 18 are for higher and of those 11 are for at least 2 more. Interesting.
It might just be easier to let people sign up for 2 groups OR pick how many they want to exchange with? (I don't know how this interferes with you keeping track)
.: Gary LaPointe said on July 4, 2004 01:20 AM :: link it :.you know... i agree with mail 4 get 4 back... last time i mailed 4 and got two back, and one of them didn't even follow the rules. i am going to bow out of this burn it, only because i am not big into soundtracks and scores... but i definitely think you should get back as many as you mail out... and kim, if you have everyone mail one to you, then you can maybe mail a random one to someone whose group failed to meet the rules? just an idea.
.: allie said on July 6, 2004 02:16 PM :: link it :.I think Allie has a great idea with mailing a random one. Kymberlie, if you need help with this, I'd be glad to help.
