The depressing part IMO isn't the lack of matches, it's the lack of misses, i.e. unrequited nominations. But have a happy Valentine's Day yourself :-).
You're correct... I meant that while matches are definitionally hit-or-miss, not even being nominated by anyone is worse. Better unrequited than invisible?
Yep. I'm with you. I wanted to comiserate with you but don't feel too sorry for me. I had lunch with 98 yesterday and we stared meaningfully into each others eyes as well as other PDA's. There was not much time for anything else as he's working flat out on a contract that is almost finished.
I did get the cutest e-card from a sweet friend and that was a nice surprise.
I'm betting tonight or tomorrow will be better for you.
I did 3 matches that I thought were sure things and I didn't get any. (And I was too late for the 5 match upgrade.)
I don't think many people knew about it. Only about 3700 responded, out of what I believe is about a million LJ users. So it's entirely possible your Valentines didn't even participate.
I figured I'd get at least one match from an existing partner... but that presumed that they were interested in playing this particular LJVD game, or knew about it. Oh, well... on top of that, no one that I *didn't* match chose me, either. Feh.
There was a "name five people you want to send an anonymous valentine to, and if they also chose you, you'll both be notified" game running about last week. I don't tend to share valentiney stuff outside of my existing-lover range, and I know neither of them participated.
It was only three people, when I did mine on Wednesday. The system could have been set up to update people who had already signed, when the limit was increased... :-(
Pink and white, eh? Hrm. At least this year they sent the right *type* of flowers, if not exactly what I thought I was getting, and I assume the card wasn't from "Jeremy" either. ;)
That scrapes :-|. Surprising, really -- I thought you'd have gotten several nominations... I'm beginning to wonder if there were flaws in the application software.
well, bummer...I hadn't the vaguest notion this was happening or I would have enthusiastically been nominating a few folks...~g~ oh well, next year I guess...
Why don't we ask them to re-activate the software for World Book Day on Mar 6? The tradition is to send a book and a flower to dear ones on that day. So, with a slight change of wording, one could easily use the system to send a book title and a flower description?
I'm a bit surprised, again... I would have thought that your Tribe alone would have had nominations whizzing back and forth. (hug) hope that you had a good day.
I couldn't even get through to the site, with the message saying that the site couldn't be found. I'm know I'm not the only one who couldn't get access to it.
I think that it was set up to block access after 1200 in one's own timezone... but if it couldn't be found, then that sounds like a local DNS issue. (hug) anyway...

But if I'd known that it might have made people feel better, I would have. Now I feel dumb.
