That’s not the issue, I will delete myself from that list to prove so, I recall you I was EU distributor and things here were done as I stated before, so not proven wrong at least in Europe. Good for the canucks if they get those seeds … beer3|nullxnull

I couldn’t imagine being a distributor for these things. The amount of time/energy/work to do it all…
I would like to thank Doug, and all the other distributors for all of there personal time and hard work.

Don’t delete yourself, I’m just saying don’t get upset with Doug when he’s doing what he’s supposed to

And the guys who put in the time, money, etc. They are important too. But yes. Distrubution really does suck. Its a thankless job, for the amount of time needed to get it done.

I received a package from Sebring with individuals envelopes for each members with their corresponding strains inside, no big deal, the hard work is done by Sebring … beer3|nullxnull

I am sorry that Sebrings absence has caused you concern George but it’s just the reality of the situation. The man had some personal issues to deal with but the whole world is still spinning. This was a co-op, the grower did his part and the seeds will get to the world when Sebring is able to deal with them. Those signed up will get their seeds, period. When is on the distributors. Sometimes life can get in the way of schedules but Sebring is doing as he said he would as did the grower who provided these seeds. Now it’s just a matter of being patient and allowing the process to happen. There is no need to remove your name, like everyone else on the sheet you will get your beans when the time comes.

As far as I know Shadey received the amount of seeds/packs due and he is the one that broke them down by user. I think things were set up different for your region or at least that is they way I understand it. I will know for sure when I receive the box. For the record I already went through all the runs and sign ups making a spread sheet to show which users got what. It was not a 5 min job. This one is the only one I had left to deal with and should have been as simple as asking Canadians to add a flag.

I understand what’s going on and hope Sebring will find soon the way out to his personal situation. I received a spreadsheet with members name and corresponding address, that’s why I think it’s Sebring the one to have all that info first and updating that Co-op list with everyone’s nationality is the way to do it.

If you’re doing all this extra work so the canucks will receive those seeds in the Fall Box and the rest of the world in the Spring Box, good for them, maybe I should edit and change that “pissed of” for “upset”, but guess you can understand what i mean, I insist, nothing personal … beer3|nullxnull

You know what George, I appreciate that. I must admit I did take that personally and found offense in you saying I only cared about Canadians when that is not even close to true. I am just trying to work with what I got at present.

I think we all first and foremost want Sebring to be ok. You are correct, this is not how the co-ops usually run, but unforeseen circumstances have caused some delays as life got in the way. This is nobody’s fault and is really just a delay for some. Heck when this started there were only 2 runs going out, that was 5 months ago. Now there are over 10.

In the end folks just need to be patient and it will all work out. These Triangle seeds will go to Sebring but I can understand some being hesitant to send anything lately as they were not able to communicate with the man himself. When he is back to communicating with folks the beans will start flowing to him again. Simple as that. It’s just a delay caused by life and totally understandable.

As for the way he sent stuff to you, from what I understand that’s not the way it works here. Now I won’t know for sure what is coming till it get’s here. There were many strains listed as extras, are any coming? I have no idea. I still have not gotten a response to the messages I sent in Nov and Dec so I am just waiting to see as I saw no point in pestering the man who has a ton of work on his plate not to mention a life to live.

I do understand what you mean by folks being disappointed by the delay but anyone that is pissed off or upset really needs to check that shit at the door. A grower put in the time and effort to make and share seeds. The only complaint could be that they didn’t get to them fast enough and if anyone has that complaint they really need to rethink their position as putting their name on a list is all they have put into this so if it takes longer than they like they will just have to live with it. Instead they should be grateful for OG being here to host such things. To Craigson15 for putting in the time, money and effort to make these for folks. Also to Sebring for the monumental job of organizing and sending these out.

As for me I will just keep getting this as organized as I can until I get the fall box since it’s the best I can do for OG at present. I am sure things will be more like what you are used to come spring box time but in the mean time we are all just doing what we can. Oh and for the record, I missed this sign up so although I will be providing these to all the Canadians, I am not due any personally so I will be waiting longer than you will :slight_smile:

Doug, AFAIK Sebring has already sent the boxes to the distributors and many yanks have already received them, so I don’t understand why now you tell Craigson15 not to send the rest of his seeds to Sebring once I found a non intrusive way to contact him through seed donations on his page.

I understand your concern for your fellow canucks but simply don’t why once someone wants to help the rest of the world having those seeds you recommend the breeder not sending them. As they would go in the next box it’s not nothing Sebring has to prepare now, I don’t think it is pushing too hard, BTW, I will add you in my spot once that list is finally wikified, so help yourself … beer3|nullxnull

The only people that have received their fall box are individuals in USA. Not one distributor has received their boxes. Sebring mentioned in his grow thread, not the co-op thread, that he sent them 3 weeks ago. We are hoping to see them any day now as that is a long time for them to be in transit and not reach anyone. Now his last posts were Feb 20, Jan 6 and Dec 2nd. Since Sebring has already started sending out local USA boxes it is too late for him to add these and as such I see no reason to send them until he is back and communicating with people. You keep inferring that there is no concern for the rest of the world but in reality that is wrong. Those seeds are aside and waiting for those who signed up once the distributor has come back. When a person is dealing with personal issues I see no point in sending them stuff they won’t touch for months while still in the middle of the last box. All the grower was waiting for was a response from the person they were sending thousands of seeds to and I see nothing wrong with them expecting that much after all their hard work. You act like this will affect the rest of the world but you are wrong, it will have no impact at all. The only negative here is folks around the globe will have to wait longer for their free seeds which should not be an issue. As for your spot, no thank you. I already have the Canadian portion so this country is set. I am sure if I am looking for some there will be those ready to give or trade them. Your seeds will be in the ones packed up and awaiting Sebring once he is ready.

Thats true.

That’s my concern, Sebring must receive a shit load of PM’s and may presumably haven’t read that specific one. If that’s the case, we won’t receive any seeds at all …
