Then it would be up to the two paired individuals to swap addresses and mail directly to each other. No middle man and no postage required. Nothing wrong with the way it was done, just a simpler way......maybe? All successful swaps depend on each person making a mix and mailing it out. From school or work, we all know people who wait until the night before to start a project or study for a test. You set a deadline and usually someone is going to spoil it for a total stranger.

this approach sucks, it was done on the old board and well, i sent a double cd but never got one in return.
so with spookie doing the pairing you get guarantied to get a tape in return if you send one.
to the paranoid: this is round 2, and it's done because round was a success. people sent the tapes and people got tapes in return.
bottom line is, if you are not for it, then don't be a part of it, just pm the person you'd like to swap mixes with and do that.
