I do think it was 8 claims, because I posted 3 mines and offers of PP, and all three were claimed by other swappers...CPL did say if she had accidentally gone over she would give us all an additional swap for the week...I believe...BREAK FOR CONTROL!
OK, this is how I interpreted last nights trades and what the status reflects (missing post #’s are just comments that do not affect the swapping) - everyone can learn something from this:
Post #1796 (8:34) - reesepoultry rescinds her claim and reposts srpaint’s offer
Post #1797(8:40) - crazypetlady “mine”d srpaint’s offer
Post # 1798(8:44) - Daloorashens “mined” crazypetlady’s offer
Post #1799(8:46) - crazypetlady “mine”d Daloorahens’s offer
Post #1800(8:46) - mzstre “mine”d crazypetlady’s offer (post #1799) I am guessing that mzstre was actually trying to claim CPL’s (8:40) offer, but was too late and got lucky that CPL had “mine”d Daloorahens offer before hers could post, but it worked.
Post# 1801(8:46) - Phage tried to mine CPL’s offer (post #1799), but was too late.
Post #1802(8:46) - CPL posts what her offer for the post #1799 is, as post #1799 simply says “mine”. I don’t see this post as claiming an offer, but restating the “mine” for Daloorahens’s offer and putting up what she is offering.
Posts #1799 - #1803 were all recorded at 8:46PM.
Post #1804(8:48) - Overoberyl “Mine”s an offer from CPL , but that offer had already been taken by mzstre
Post #1806(8:49) - CPL “mine”s mzstre’s offer
Post #1808(8:51) - Phage “mine”s CPL’s offer
Post # 1809(8:53) - mzstre asks CPL if the last “mine” (post #1806(8:49)) was on her offer.
Post #1810(8:54) - CPL replies “yes”
Post #1811(8:55) - CPL confirms that Phage claimed her #1808 offer
Post #1812(8:55) - CPL “Mine”s Phage’s offer (only says “Mine on Phage)
Post #1814(8:57) - CPL reposts her claim for Phage’s offer now showing eggs offered.
Post #1815(8:57) - Overoberyl “Mine”d CPL’s offer
Post #1816(8:58) - Phage “mine”s CPL’s offer but is too late.
For all of CPL’s posts when she is claiming something, the “mine” is a new post. In post#1802 and #1814, the mine is part of the pasted egg offer list and therefore does not represent a new claim.
If CPL would like to say that post #1802 was a lucky “mine” of mzstre’s offer, and then Overoberyl claimed that offer, to which CPL claimed that with post #1806, that is fine with me, but it will put her at 8 claims for the week.
I can see how this can be interpreted both ways. So, in the future, after the frenzy dies down, please go back and clarify whose offer you are “mine”ing (a post # would be VERY helpful) and edit any posts that were too late to remove the word "mine". Otherwise, I’m going to start charging everyone a swap every time they post the word “Mine”, repost or not!
So post 1806 was CPL claiming my pp offer, which she already msg'd me about and which I have already sent.
