FS2004 - Let the tying begin

[rb608]

The magic number is 37!

The signup period has ended, and we have 37 swappers signed up for this
year's swap.

For me, the focus will now shift to the tying, tagging & shipping aspects of
the swap, and changes to the FS2004 site
(http://home.att.net/~fleischman/FS2004) have been made to reflect that.
Because of a few questions in regard to tags, I've compiled an entire new
page devoted to that topic. (http://home.att.net/~fleischman/FStags.htm)

At a count of 37, however, the initial guidelines for dealing with large
numbers are moot. I'm holding to the promised maximum requirement of 30; but
you may want to reconsider tying 7 more. For tyers submitting 30: The fly
sorting/distribution will be in a "round robin" method, and each participant
will get 30 flies at random from the larger pool.

OTOH: You may elect to tie the entire amount at your discretion. As
promised, I won't require more than 30; but if you're easily tempted to tie
7 more, it's up to you. Tyers submitting the full amount will, of course,
get one of each from everybody.

YOMAS,
Joe Fleischman
