We have a winner, and it's a mentholated soap for July!
Congratulations to AYLM, and Don José!
The soap was proposed by @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social. We need to make sure he knows our addresses, so that he can send the smushes out. (If there is someone on the other side of the pond with some Don José, we could maybe share the burden).
~I translated ranks into numbers: 7 points for the highest rank, and down to 1 point for the last ranked element). Anyways, I don't believe that the precise way of calculating have any importance here; the results seem rather clear~
Hello, I have everyone's address except for @walden@sub.wetshaving.social (unless the others moved since our last correspondence).
So if that concerns you or you are Walden, please pm me your details and i and off the smushes (ideally on the linked matrix account)
Shall we also send smushes to @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social and @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social?
I've already reached out to pudding about his address, and maybe @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social can send dave a smush since they are in the same country and he has a tin and offered he could help
Absolutely, just PM addresses for anyone who still needs a smush.
@DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social
I'm really sorry that I missed your comment!
PM is on the way, I'd gladly partake 👍🏻
No worries, I'm just glad you're joining the shave next month!
It's not my case, but FYI I don't see a linked matrix account for you, contrary to @gcgallant.
Huh! Must have gotten deleted during our db shenanigans! Fixed now
I'm glad you said something, looks like mine isn't linked anymore either.
Fixed now.
I don't know if mine is visible; if not: how do you link a matrix account?
Edit: Found it!
Of course we picked the most expensive soap which is banana scented.
Obviously – we may be monkeys, but sophisticated ones 🙄
