DIAMONDS & NEW STUFF

CHEFS!!!

OK, so Josh teased us with some "coming soon and it will be cooler than the iPhone" kinda stuff a few weeks ago. (OK, not his words, but I am going for effect here) Josh's Words

WELL????

We seriously need something cool or new and would LOVE a new Diamond set.

CHEFS??

It's really hot. I need something really cool.

Lets find a way to get more Stamps before a new Diamond Set is released. It does me no good if I don't have any Stamps to send it out.

Ooooo.... good point!!

Will only VIPs get it again? I hope not because I just canceled. ;(

dyar on Jul 09, 2007

There hasn't been a VIP Freebie since I went VIP several months ago.

jameshilton on Jul 09, 2007

what was the VIP freebie last time? i'm a VIP now but have only been important for a month or so.

Nokiko on Jul 09, 2007

how about a platinum set ;)

jameshilton on Jul 09, 2007

Platinum has been mentioned before, but it would have to cost more than 10 tokens and that would mean non VIP's couldn't collect it.

Jameshilton: Amsterdam High Seas and some stickers via snail mail

jameshilton on Jul 09, 2007

WOW Stickers! wouldnt a load of tokens be better?

aaroncampbell on Jul 09, 2007

JamesHilton: Not for me, I have all the sets, and left over tokens every month. Now stamps on the other hand...I'd definitely prefer stamps.

lparziale on Jul 09, 2007

Vote for stamps....

lparziale on Jul 09, 2007

Well, the Chefs must be up to SOMETHING cause my stamps said -10 just a second ago. THen it was 1 and when I tried to send, got nada. So... perhaps they are "tweaking" the stamps in some way as we blog ...

aaroncampbell on Jul 09, 2007

Well, I still have 0 stamps, and according to my IB Stamps calculator, I have only 5 in the wild.

Psy2k on Jul 09, 2007

I had 15 stamps, then 0, then again 15 (all these in two minutes), I send some sets and now I have -10 stamps too!!!

jmnovak on Jul 09, 2007

OK, that's bizarre; I had three overdue stamps returned to me earlier today, but now they're gone again... very strange.

Per the main topic: we're about due for a diamond, based on what I remember of a Chef post describing the expected frequency of diamonds... Given that a diamond is deliberately supposed to be hard to deliver (hence bonus pointage), I rather expect the next diamond to again be a VIP-only, otherwise it's (relatively) easier to find takers... for a little while, at least.

I think JC is working on the stamp return thingy that isn't working right which is why your stamps are leaping around like loonies.

I have 6. All out and stuck. 5 are in a closed account so I won't be seeing those for a while.

Assuming I get the new set tomorrow I get 5 stamps. The set is 3 so I can send out 1. Any takers? :(

Psy2k on Jul 09, 2007

I have 5 stamps. When I refresh, I have -10! If I refresh again they are 5... Thats strange!

Maybe someone is leaning on the "Easy" button from Staples. No, then it would be raining stamps.
