Working on Mehrican exchange need google forms help; suggestions

Kidsandliz went on a bit of a rant said

So I am putting together the pieces to run the mehrican exchange. Never used google forms before. Grabbed the form from a previous exchange and did a save as. Renamed it v.6 (this is correct isn’t it? if we count in a linear whole number fashion rather than the last one which would have been v5 had we done that and instead was something like v4.1 or there about? Correct?).

Entered my own information. Saw I could see it. Not sure what url to post here. Is it the one you see in “preview”? Tried to email it to myself and both msn and yahoo rejected it as spam (was going to see what link was sent) and didn’t even list it as spam, rather I got a refused email.

I need to know if anyone had any suggestions to improve the signup, rules or running of this.

Also @studerc and @Yoda_Daenerys if you could email me at my user name and then using the usual yahoo. I need from both of you the list of people who didn’t send the promised boxes or are otherwise on the shit list. And I could use any advice you have for running this smoothly. For example what have you found to be the optimal length of time for signup, between sending the who has whom and when they need to send their boxes out, have you made any effort to keep people from getting someone they have had before (I was just going to do random unless there is a good reason not to), should I set the form so people can go back in and edit it, anything else you’d care to offer… Also is there a meh exchange existing email address (since obviously that name is taken already) I could temporarily borrow for this and then “give” it back to you? Thank you in advance!

TO EVERYONE ELSE - I will start a new thread with all the information when it is time you can sign up and I have everything good to go (I do not want to prematurely start that thread, have it buried in chit chat and then cause confusion). This thread is for suggestions, comments, and other ON TOPIC (please!!) discussion/comments.

PS - READ THIS @f00l and @PlacidPenguin If you want me to run this then the two of you who trying to make me goat need to focus your efforts on the others you (and @jbarus) have determined are in line. I am not doing both at once and the exchange gets priority. You have been warned (grin).
