Description:

NOTE: Mystery swaps are those in which you don't know the particulars until partners are assigned. See below.

I have with me 350 questions that you can ask a pen pal to know them better. Yup--350 questions! There are easy questions like: * Were you named after someone? * Do you untie your shoes when you take them off? And thought-provoking questions like: * If you were another person, would you be friends with yourself? * What is the most surprising action you’ve ever taken?

Here's where the mystery part comes in. * When you sign up, pick 10 numbers from 1-350 and put them in the comment box. * When you're assigned your partner, I will put a link to the questions to ask based on your picks in the comments section. * Your partner will answer all or 7 out of the 10 questions via notecard. They are allowed to skip three if they wish--perhaps by writing "Not comfortable answering that question" or "Not sure."

Summary: When the swap closes, I will upload the questions to my blog and put the link in the comment box. Answer the questions on a notecard with 10 loose stickers or one sheet. There's probably aspects of this swap that I haven't thought of so feel free to ask. I will angel if necessary.

Pei04 09/ 5/2015 #

My partner will answer nr: 3, 9, 10, 19, 20, 42, 48, 83, 242 and 248.

So I sent a notecard with My questions to MY partner who receives them sometime in the future and PMs me the answers? Wouldn't it be easier to everyone (including you the host) that after the swap closes you email the link to the questions/the actual questions to everyone and then we see what questions our partners want to be answered, answer them for example on a notecard that we send to our partners...? I'm not sure why I'd want to send just a list of questions to people?

@liveve308 I like that idea and thought the same thing while reading this.

CariPeace 09/ 5/2015 #

@mb58ca I like your concept and think it sounds fun, I just agree with @liveve308 s method.

Averysmom7 09/ 5/2015 #

I choose numbers : 3, 5, 7, 10, 22, 64, 98, 169, 236, 335.

Averysmom7 09/ 5/2015 #

What if we want to answer more then 10 questions? can we choose " Bonus Questions" ?

aisbaby 09/ 5/2015 #

Love this idea! But it would be more seamless with liveve's suggestion :)

AliCrafter 09/ 5/2015 #

You have 350 questions but we can pick between 1-382? I love the idea but and a little confused.

mb58ca 09/ 6/2015 #

Everyone, okay, it seems I haven't thought things through. So I will edit the description. Thanks for your input.

mb58ca 09/ 6/2015 #

@Averysmom7 Thanks for the "bonus questions" suggestion. I'll work it into the swap somehow. Have to think on it...

tampatha 09/11/2015 #

liveve308 09/14/2015 #

So do we send our answers via PM or written on a notecard etc? You're talking about both and its really confusing... still watching for now.

pernie123 09/14/2015 #

262, 342, 344, 343, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349 , 25

mb58ca 09/15/2015 #

@liveve308 - Send via notecard.

theaterfan23 09/15/2015 #

57, 58, 167, 211, 216, 221, 236, 254, 289, and 347

liveve308 09/15/2015 #

13, 29, 86, 113, 123, 142, 169, 219, 301 & 321

kdeorne1 09/15/2015 #

My partner will answer: 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 17, 20, 21, 25, and 90

njstauter 09/15/2015 #

my partner will answer: 4, 22, 45, 66, 105, 169, 210, 271, 311, 345.

I think this is going to be quite interesting. If I understand, when partners are assigned, I will return to this comment page to see what my partner wants me to answer. I need to find and follow a link to get the questions that are numbered 1-350 (lot of work to do that). Then I will answer the questions on a note card and include at least 10 loose stickers.

theaterfan23 09/16/2015 #

So for the bonus question, do we post the number here, in the comment section?

njstauter 09/16/2015 #

I like bonus question #330

mb58ca 09/16/2015 #

To my partner: Please answer the bonus question #316.

liveve308 09/16/2015 #

Bonus question #19.

theaterfan23 09/16/2015 #

I would love my partner to answer #46

Aichtwooh 09/16/2015 #

Bonus question is 106

Averysmom7 09/16/2015 #

kdeorne1 09/17/2015 #
