Hi smitch425 - we have decided that we are going as characters off Phineas and Ferb.
ok that is who asked me and am going to try to get some cards for him if I can, unless someone else gets them before me.

I also communicated with this person 2 weeks ago and stated that I would send some...
Thank you, glad you reached out at smitch425's urging. No worries, I will still try hard to grab some for you and a reminder would be lovely!Hi, I didn't want to hijack the thread, but it seems that is happening a bit without me. (Also, smitch425 encouraged me to post).
I reached out to a number of people regarding the cards. An offer to consider sending me a card if no one you know is interested in it is all I was hoping for. I realize that even if I get a couple of people to agree to try to grab them, things happen... (trips get cancelled, plans change, there could be a long line one particular night, someone can't locate where to get them, etc... I've even heard of them running out of the card on a specific night). I figure if I get a number of folks to try, at least someone will come through. I don't want anyone to feel obligated or feel badly if it doesn't fit into their night. Indeed, one of the first people I contacted expressed concern with the responsibility and specifically requested I not just rely on them. To me and it sounded like a good idea.
My next step was to send a reminder note to those who agreed to try and to note that I had others trying, so they should not feel obligated or worry if it becomes an inconvenience. I was trying to get a few cards, and I wanted to be as unobtrusive as possible to the board and to people's vacations. So, I apologize that I went about this the wrong way. It seems like it is becoming a point of concern for folks.
I hope everyone enjoys the party!
I said I would too. What I don't understand if he communicated 2 weeks ago and got a yes, why did he send me a PM over the weekend asking for some?
