Can't wait to see what it is.

aquatic_rice 06-13-2009 07:02 PM

update: still waiting for a response from burc, he hasnt been online since the 10th so i dont know wuts going on. I guess hes just busy with the frag sale :wink:

hopefully we can still get it shipped on monday.

ill pm everyone the shipping address tonight.

findingnemo1 06-13-2009 11:41 PM

I hope so:)
Have we found out who won the colony yet?

aquatic_rice 06-14-2009 05:16 AM

no word on the colony yet. still waiting on a response.

ill be pming everyone shortly.

hummer 06-14-2009 06:41 PM

Hey David,
Looks like my Hammer Coral won't be in on time so I replaced it with #9.

aquatic_rice 06-15-2009 12:36 AM

ok
just make sure you let burc know

findingnemo1 06-15-2009 09:55 PM

So have we heard anything yet?

aquatic_rice 06-15-2009 10:13 PM

well i got a pm from him yesterday morning, apologizing for the late reply and that he would do the draw yesterday for sure.

havnt heard anything since then, but i did send him a pm around lunch time. and still no confirmation on shipping date

sorry guys and gal, i dunno wutelse to tell ya

findingnemo1 06-15-2009 10:35 PM

Oh dont get me wrong its not your fault:)
Was just curious more than anything..Hoping we get some confirmation so we can all get on with our day on Wed...

aquatic_rice 06-16-2009 01:04 AM

oh no, i never got that impression. no worries :wink:

burc told me that he wasnt shipping any orders last week so i was looking forward to getting it this week (as im sure everyone else is). i guess it just gets crazy busy for him during the $10 frag sales.

but hopefully itll be in time for this week. *insert finger-crossing smilie*

jepree 06-16-2009 05:17 AM

man..............david just go drive there and pick them up already!!! be a good organizer and just do it lol!!!!

aquatic_rice 06-16-2009 05:30 AM

sure! but then you (and only you everyone else is for free :mrgreen:) have to compensate for... gas, missed work, and shipping and handling fees.

ps. i can do it on the weekend but then itll be time and a half. HA!

Phanman 06-16-2009 04:23 PM

Any word today?

aquatic_rice 06-16-2009 07:56 PM

yes, got word from him this morning.

i hope everyones good with friday pickup.
he is also sending a colony for us to decide the winner.

hummer 06-16-2009 08:12 PM

Ya, I'm good with Friday. Hm...he told me that the Hammer Coral doesn't come in till Thursday and asked me to pick another. I picked #9 but I wonder if I get it now since shipping is Friday. I'm fine with either. I picked up a frogspawn yesterday. looks similar.

We get to pick the winner? Hm...I'll submit a vote for Hummer! If I win, I'll frag for everyone!!! =)

kien 06-16-2009 09:15 PM

Hummer, just a tip about ordering during $10 frag sales.. keep it simple :-) I kept making changes during the last fragalot order and ended up with a few mistakes in the order. Burc is really nice about correcting them but still, it is hard to keep all those orders straight I'd imagine :smile:

I vote we all show up for pickup at the same time.. each of us grab a branch of the colony.. On the count of three, we all pull! There, instant frags for everyone!

Or we could all meet at the playground after school.. :twised:

aquatic_rice 06-16-2009 09:15 PM

well hummer, since im receiving the shipment i guess your SOL. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA :twised::twised::twised::twised:

(.... but i do take bribes :mrgreen:)

well i was thinking we could either do a draw for 1 winner, or we could all agree to equally frag it up and everyone takes a frag. thoughts?

and depending on wut it is, i could frag it up first thing and it could be ready by the time everyone picks up their order.

and if we did a draw, we would all have to arrange a meeting or something so its fair.

aquatic_rice 06-16-2009 09:25 PM

Haha, i like how you think kien. im in!

kien 06-16-2009 09:32 PM

If I had won the frag I would have fragged it up for everyone anyway, so I'm cool with that.. BUT, I'm not so sure doing it right away is such a good idea? The colony will probably be stressed due to shipping so hacking it up after it arrives could make it very very unhappy ? I'm okay with waiting for frags from the colony once it has had a time to somewhat recover. Anyway, just my two cents. I'm good with whatever the group decides.

K.

Phanman 06-16-2009 09:32 PM

Could be a little hard to get everyone together for the draw, but im down for whatever. Might be a good idea to frag it up when it comes in and we could number each frag up and draw from a hat as to which frag you get whenever someone arrives so its fair. Just a thought... :biggrin:

Argentiner 06-16-2009 10:44 PM

I think Phanman's idea is great. Can't get any more fair than that.

findingnemo1 06-16-2009 10:48 PM

Okay so when is it actually being shipped?
I was told last time by Burc that he only ships Mondays and Wednesdays so that would have it in transit 48 hours?If so i am not okay with that by anymeans.

For the colony i also vote for the frag it up:)

hummer 06-16-2009 11:11 PM

Ya I should have just stuck to the $10 specials. I only had to change up because he didn't have stock. I hope things go ok.

David, I'm fine with you fragging it ahead of time. I'm also fine with meeting at the playground. I've been working on the deck all week so my arms and shoulders are really starting to show. :lol:
But if the coral needs to recoup then we should probably frag it later. It's better to have a healthy coral. I'm cool with meeting up again...maybe swap some frags!! :biggrin:

Phanman 06-16-2009 11:14 PM

if you want to wait for the colony to heal up thats cool with me too. Whatever works best

aquatic_rice 06-17-2009 12:14 AM

well i doubt it would be 48h. thats just asking for trouble.

in his pm, he was asking me if i could receive on friday. so maybe hes making an exception?

i dont think any of us are willing to take that risk. ill clarify with burc just to be sure :wink:

jepree 06-17-2009 01:18 AM

I'm down for a UFC champion takes all scrap lol

No i know none of us would be happy with 48hours:)
I just see that the Edmonton order is going out tommorrow so i am hoping that ours doesn't go with it and then not make it here untill friday that would soooo suck:)
I am okay with whatever you guys choose with how to do the colony!!

aquatic_rice 06-17-2009 06:07 PM

so its being shipped on thursday and arriving on fri.
and if anyone didnt receive my pm (or needs it again) for pickup location and my # lemme know.

jepree 06-17-2009 07:02 PM

unfortunately david, you did not send me the PICK-UP location and/or PHONE NUMBER and now my i feel a great sadness, remorse and disheartened!!! lol

aquatic_rice 06-17-2009 09:37 PM

hummer 06-18-2009 04:59 PM

Pick up is in the NW location?

Does anyone want some Kenya Trees? I have a TON! Also a palm size coral that I think might be a pom pom xenia.
Let me know if you guys want some. I can bring it if pick up is in the NW.

aquatic_rice 06-18-2009 10:25 PM

yes, the initial pickup will be in the NW.

hopefully the shipment arrives before noon, havnt got any info about shipping from burc yet.
but i would like to beat the rush hour tom so ill be heading to the NE location around 3, so ill be there around 3:30.

i would like to give a good window for people to pickup in the nw, so as long as it doesnt arrive around 1 or 2 this will be the schedule.

ill be posting as soon as i receive, and i will let you all know when im heading to the NE

aquatic_rice 06-19-2009 05:14 PM

update: still waiting on arrival, and still no word from burc on tracking info

hummer 06-19-2009 05:27 PM

Thanks for the update. I hope our order is ok. I read the edm group order. A few people didn't quite get what they ordered.

findingnemo1 06-19-2009 05:27 PM

We'll ni sure hope it was actually sent and you are not sitting there waiting for nothing.
And the rest of us aren't wastin out time waiting as we'll.:(

I got a tracking number last time from him for the last order....hmmmm

That would suck, because that already happened to me once with my last fragalot order :sad:

aquatic_rice 06-19-2009 06:32 PM

i know. i really wouldnt be too happy, i took a day off of work so i could be here to get it.

same here, i got a tracking # from burc on the last order. ive pm him about the tracking # and ETA on the shipment but nothing.
(turns out he hasnt been online since the 17th, and his pm inbox is now full)

and since its already past noon, if and when it arrives, you can come pickup in the nw. ill be here till about 6:30

findingnemo1 06-19-2009 07:09 PM

I agree.. I didn't go on my kids field trip so i could be home as we'll.
I would honestly say if it isn't here by three than he didn't send it...

aquatic_rice 06-19-2009 09:04 PM

update: still waiting

kien 06-19-2009 09:07 PM

Booooo!!!! Thanks for waiting for us. If I was in your shoes I would be very very annoyed and disgruntled, so I know how you must feel. Boooooo!!!
