Don’t be scared! The points will work out this week. They always do. Plus your shop is so popular as Kayrun pointed out.

Yes! I agree with what has been said. Spend away, you will be fine and people will be glad to see your shop in the over/under!!

Okay you all convinced me…. I’m at ZERO points! Woohoo!
But also, thank you all so much for this fun month of craziness! I’m glad to find new people who appreciate the tiny pottery! (and I’m usually up for a personal swap too!)

I’m off by 1pt for the whole swap.
I’m super tired, I’ll have to look tomorrow.

I double checked my points and the official count has me at 5, so I went ahead and closed.
Thanks everyone for one of the best rounds in recent memory! Can you imagine if for 2025, we keep this up AND add in some of the folks who weren’t quite ready in time for this round?

Agreed! I am so happy with all my claims - you guys are so talented!
Next round I hope to have A LOT more inventory.

This swap has been so much fun! I love everything I’ve received and I’m so happy that so many of the things I made found good homes!
My finished projects tote is almost empty! 
Now I can make things to fill it back up for next year!

Let us know if you need a 2nd pair of eyes to look over the claims (a daunting task, for sure!)

Thank you! I might, I’ll let you know if I do.

In my spreadsheets everyone checks out on their own, but when all together we have one point extra.
kayrun, you really want to check?

Ugh, I spoke up without considering that I’d be out of town.
I’m on my phone at the moment, but I can look over the master list to see if it matches each person’s shop, if that’ll help at all.
I should have brought my laptop w me to my daughter’s house.
(I don’t think I could easily look over a spreadsheet until I get home Saturday, but would gladly help then)
Let’s ping @Bunny1kenobi to help if possible, since she has organized some large swaps, I think?
This is definitely a monster to organize, and I seem to remember once years & years ago alteredmommy (I think) had to just call it even although it was off by one.

I’m at 5 so I shut my shop down also.

I could potentially try to help, though I don’t think it’s my strong point. Would I need to go through the shops and check their claims vs points??

I would offer to help, but I’m not sure you want/need my terrible organization and/or wonky maths skills touching this swap….
But still, let me know if there’s any way I can try to look things over!
Also, I still need two points, so I’m going to look through my shop and see what I can discount down to 2 or 1 point! (And if you’re someone who needs to spend points, and happen to be interested in any of my things, please let me know if there’s anything I can change that might help things add up for you…!

I think I’m the last one that needs to spend points. As long as the available items in shop posts are up-to-date and still available, everyone should be good. I mailed everything I needed to yesterday, so I’ll be able to spend points later today. 
(I wasn’t sure if I should wait for points to be double checked before spending or not.)

I ran all of my numbers and I was missing a claim I made from Irid3sc3nt from my claims list and can confirm that it looks like I’m one point short. So sorry about that! I’m re-opening my shop.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for running the numbers @photojenn!
ALL - I added two small art pieces to my store, both 1pt. I can work on something new Sunday but I won’t have a chance until then.
