Title: PITH Communication...Last points are out!
Post by: Parnell on April 17, 2018, 07:50:52 am
Hi all,

OK, so we are just under a month out from being finished with the PITH.  I don't want to start this as a new thread for posting pictures.

Please, post your pictures under the existing "PITH points received" as you receive them. 

If there are issues or obstacles, please communicate with me as we approach May 12th.  Hope to see more pictures and I'll be starting to make my own decisions. 

Cheers everyone,

Stephen Parnell

mine are done, but not as good as the one bonepile sent to me--but I will get them sent out soon.  Work is killing me right now.

Not easy to top Roger, he is a mighty fine knapper.  He and I live pretty close by and have drew each other in past years.  I was expecting to see Bonepile, Mullet, or myself draw each other, it seems to always happen, but not this time!

Title: Re: PITH Communication........OK, 1 WEEK TO GO!!!
Post by: Tracker0721 on May 06, 2018, 07:27:30 pm
Shipping tomorrow or the day after! I’ll send out PMs with tracking.

Swataramike, I’ve sent 2 large flat rates of obsidian in trade for a staves before, guys son messaged me after a year to say his dad was in jail still and the kid was trying to figure out who his dad owed what. There are still rotten apples out there. Let Parnell know so the guy makes it to the List. Shoot me your address, I’ve got a few extra presents I’m sending out and could get one your way too

i appreciate it tracker i really do but i am good bro...just learned my lessons with pith trades...which is i am done with them....
Title: Re: PITH Communication........OK, 1 WEEK TO GO!!!
Post by: mullet on May 06, 2018, 08:03:32 pm
Mike. lets keep it off the board, you'll get some points. PM me and I keep the list and I'll get to the bottom of it. I haven't got all of my ends either.

And, sorry we won't see you again.
Title: Re: PITH Communication........OK, 1 WEEK TO GO!!!
Post by: Parnell on May 07, 2018, 09:02:45 am
I am also sorry to read this Mike.  For many years of this PITH and with the number of points traded there have been very few problems.  It is inconvenient you are affected but I do need to know those who don't hold up there end as they are excluded in the future.

I hope you will communicate with me through PM and we can certainly work out a solution.

I packaged my points up last night and my wife will ship this morning. Sorry for the lateness. I thought I'd have more time to knap and have had very little. I got into my case for these points. I have received my points from Redhand as mentioned in the other thread, but have not heard from my other guy yet. Y'all have a gooder, dpgratz

I gots my point mailed to Mullet yesterday,

UtahChippewa, I am right with you at coming down to the wire and in the long run this is all for fun.

Looking forward to the next one with you.

Post by: 1442 on May 15, 2018, 07:08:53 am
I'm with you too Bowtarist,
only 24 hours in a day and sometimes that aint enough.
Every time I join a PITH it seems like I need another eight hours at least each day just to keep up with all the things that need keeping up with besides the PITH.

Post by: Parnell on May 16, 2018, 12:50:56 pm
I've gone through the list and am hoping to get this all clarified and closed...things I'm wondering about, please let me know.

Would the following people please send me a PM regarding points being sent:

1.  Tower - growing concerned, please let me know.
2.  Patches - closed to Tower & Cowboy?
3.  Utah Chippewa to Swataramike - please clarify.
4.  Trapper Rob - you closed?
5.  1442 - you closed?
6.  Knapping Cowboy - saw the message...how are we looking?
7.  Bowtarist - good to go?
8.  Jeffp52 to Bonepile - this one finished?
9.  Yosemite Ben - you ok?

Seems a little trickier this year with communication.  Hoping to scratch off all names and if there is a default, I'll make amends as best I can, in their stead.

Thanks guys,

Parnell
