I'm not sure who has access to the mule account, so I'm not sure who to pm or quote or anything.... but I really have to say.... Why is it not being checked more often?

I have had a trade waiting for almost a week at this point. And I know I'm not the only one. No offense, but in light of the fact that the ball itself is a little more than a month away, the fact that my trade was not accepted within 1-2 days tops will have several people skiddish. They might feel that whatever they donate won't be going to the ball because nothing has happened with it and cancel the trade.

Life gets busy, I understand that. But a week at this point? Especially since the mule has been logged into since I sent the trade, and nothing has happened.... There may be been someone else been waiting longer and just said screw it? No offense, but this simple thing could make others with less patience throw their hands up and cancel their own trades, making the fundraising commitee's job THAT much harder.

Could someone please get on and accept the trades so fundraising could continue?

I do have to say this concerns me. I've been advertising fundraising pretty heavily for the past few days. Pinkie recently assured me that we've raised quite a bit of gold but with inflation being so high it's a good idea to rake in a few more. I know because of my advertising of at LEAST 3 trades, may's being one where there is 150 mil plus about 200mil more worth of items, another 150 mil trade, and a 17 mil trade with a bunch of small items we can use for whatever resources.

I understand that life gets busy but there is supposed to be several people in charge of this am I right? If people are to busy to keep up with this - ESPECIALLY with it only being a month away - shouldn't there be people taking over this that CAN keep up with it? That goes in regards to ALL committees.

There should be, and I'd help, but I have no access to the mule.

Hello! This has been entirely my fault. I've been working a lot on one end for the ball, but I've neglected the mule account for a long time. I'm sorry! I've got it permanently logged in on my Google Chrome account from now on for further trades, and I've accepted all trades thus far. Thanks, everyone, for bearing with me.

I can see your concerns and I share them as well - I have access to the mule but seeing as how I haven't been a large part of planning this year's ball at ALL I didn't feel it was right for me to be logging into the mule at all either. This is this year's mule and I didn't want anyone to be wondering why last year's host was "putting her fingers into the pie."

Pinkie is online today though so I'm sure that she will accept the trades.

I see. It's not an issue. Lol. things have calmed down for me in real life a little bit ...actually no that's kind of a lie LOL. What i actually find is I'm better at managing my time to do things. And not all of my time has been filled up lately.

SO. If you guys need me to do anything please let me know. I haven't been big part of the actual planning, but I am great behind the scenes worker. I just need a step in the right direction because at this point I have no idea where to start.
