Thank you for helping us smooth these hiccups! And enjoy the rest of your vacations!
I did but I also have to change my profiletext and that’s not working
I cann’t even connect to the website for a while now
I’m afraid some patience is going to be required to make it through today… Give it a little break and try again in a bit, hopefully it’ll work better! And thank you in advance!
I am trying to open Postcrossing site, message: " This site can’t be reached"
Anyone else has this problem? Or is it on my side?
It’s not just you, I’ve been struggling with that all morning. I managed to get through once to get an address, but most of the morning I’ve been sitting here hitting refresh. I sounds like Postcrossing is just too overwhelmed by people trying to get addresses.
Just read the comments here and on many other threads, it has been mentioned many times😊
I did just that (at least for a few Hours) and hope my address will be given to far away countries because I‘m not here next week
I was also back in active and now using travel mode for meet up preparing. But after that I’m back to active
I can’t thank you enough!
We set back to active the accounts of my son and husband as well and shared also your posting in the German section.
Earlier in the morning, the number of travelling postcards was nearly 368,000+ (as I remembered) but it is 408,000+ now and still increasing .
Danke danke!
I think someone in the German topic was asking about statistics — could you let them know we’ll share those in a wrap-up post we’ll do next week? My German is getting a little rusty… In any case, even with all these hiccups on the website, we’ve already passed the number of postcards sent last year on World Postcard Day… so yay!
Done
I’ve been taking out addresses in bulks today, the first this morning, and the last after I came home from work. The difference between the numbers from this morning and this afternoon, is almost 200 - and that is for Norway alone.
And 1 October is not over yet.
Reminds me a little to the Day, when Germany reached the 10.000.000 Postcards and took PC down, but this was a Moment… now we have 24 hours for this little crazyness. XD
Poor servers.
Happy World Postcard Day
Yes, I noticed that. There are more than 40,000 postcards travelling than this time yesterday. No wonder they’re struggling to find enough addresses.
So I did. My profile is changed and I could write 2 cards. Unfirtunately not more because I just moved into my new house yesterday. After writing the cards it was a challenge to get them posted. I don’t know anymore in which box my stamps are. So I went out in the rain to find a shop where they sell stamps. Then as I got there I didn’t have my paycard, so I had to return home to get it, go back and after thst search for a mailbox to get the cards going on their way in time. I succeeded . So this was a tough WPD for me. Next tear hopefully will be better. I’m not planning to move again ever, tooo much stress . So now I’m enjoying a meal in a restaurant because I cann’t cook yet in my new house.
Happy WPD everyone. I hope it’s less complicated for you all.
And I allmost forgot to say thank you to the Postcrossingteam for your amazing work . So thank you all
Oh Maria, what an adventure… But I’m so glad you’ve made a special effort to participate in the day and get those postcards going! Hurray!
Good afternoon. I live in Russia (Moscow) and got the address at 2.20 am on October 1. But the site lists the shipping date as September 30th. So I won’t get the badge. Last year there was the same problem with time zones, but I read an article that this year you fixed it. But, apparently, they still did not fix it?
