Questions only Journal

Neat idea! That's a lot of questions! LOL

What size journal and does it need to be nice and pretty or altered?

too bad this does not include canada? it's only a notebook, so i would love to join if you would open it up to canada as well.

The journal size can be a 5x7, 8x11. Some journals already have designs, pictures on them. You do not have to alter.

It looks like these would have to be questions requireing really short answers. It usually takes me a whole page to answer one question. Also, can we make the journals? I love making journals. Thanks

In the journal I am doing now for a pal, I am leaving 3-5 spaces under the questions. Once again it depends on the question. Some questions may require only a yes or no, or circle which one type of thing. Sure, you can make your journals.

A few people asked me about the amount of questions on a page. The more the merrier, but if you believe the question may take up a half page or so, feel free to put just one on that page.

so how will the ratings work? because receiving the journal back would be part of the swap...

cool! i just bought a new composition book, and it has EXACTLY 100 pages. perfect! :3

adding this to my watch list! <3's

Rate according to rules when u get yours back--must have used both sides of all sheets, 3-5 questions per page unless answer needed a longer response.
Hope that helps. Write me if you have more questions.

You can only rate the person who sends to you originally, not the person YOU send to... some I am still confused. :(

You are to rate on receiving the journal and making sure it is done properly-All pages have questions on them and obviously received.

a 3 for a no-send? i thought those were 1's? @w ;

someone said to me 3's were nicer, but 1's for a no send is correct

Do we send the journal with the questions at the sign up date, so the receiver has the time to complete? I wouldn't want to receive it quite late and only have a week or so to answer 100 questions.

So, let me get this right: I write my journal full of questions and send it to "sarah". Sarah get the journal and answers my questions, then send it on to her partner. I recieve a journal and answer the questions and mail these answered question to Sarah as well? I then rate the person who sent me the journal with the questions i answered on completion? So we are mailing two journals to our partners?

Wow! I just did the math in my head and I realized how many questions!

I would suggest getting started right NOW! =P I know I am... I'm shooting to be able to send right after (if not the day) we get partners assigned, just to give them enough time to answer and send them back... or however we end up doing it!

You will send your journal of questions to your partner to fill out. They in turn send their partner the completed journal to be rated that it is completely done and finished. Everyone will get a rating this way.

My journal has 192 pages, so actually its 384 (back and front) I have between 3-5 questions on each pages depending upon the answers.

You can get questions from myspace and facebook surveys if you have trouble.

Journals can go out on or before send by. I will state to be patient on ratings, as people neeed time to answer and mail.

I wonder if they have to be QUESTIONS, or inquiries? Like one big hulking Facebook survey? I'm noticing I want to start a lot of mine like "tell me about..."

Would that be okay?

I decorated it a while ago and am having fun coming up with questions to put in it! I was going back and forth on whether or not to decorate, think of if my parter would send a decorated one, but I decided I should 1) so it doesn't blend in with any other notebooks they may have laying around and B) hopefully it will be a great conversation piece... and a good reason to tell people about Swap-Bot!

=P

I am a little confused... This is my first swap like this and I want to make sure I get it right.

so, 1st - write questions in notebook. 2nd - send notebook to partner. 3rd - I will receive a notebook with questions 4th- I answer questions 5th - I then send notebook with questions and answers to MY assigned partner? Not to the person who sent it to me? 6th - I will receive a notebook with questions and answers from someone else and I rate the person who wrote the questions?

Do I send the Notebook back to the original owner or keep it?

Will I receive my original notebook back with the questions answered?

I know this is probably easier than what I am making it...just want to make sure I understand. Thank you

@Jec0646 You've got it right! =D You're keeping the notebook, NOT sending it back to the original owner. You will NOT receive your original notebook back, but another from your sender's sender.

Whew... But you've got it right in the little paragraph. Another for anybody else would be Alison sends Megan, her partner, the journal she's filled with questions. Megan answers Alison's questions and sends it off to Hilary, her partner. Hilary checks to make sure everything was done correctly, rates Megan for completing the swap, and keeps the journal. Hilary does not send the journal back to Alison.

Although, I suppose if you really wanted to have your journal back you could go through the chain, but it's not a requirement.

I was all excited about this swap till I read all this and finally figured out that you don't get the journal back. What is the point if you don't get to see the answers to the questions you asked of your partner?

Tink, I see your point. you can request your journal to be sent back to you. I am sure the partner will do that for you. If you join, put a note in the front of the journal asking for it to be returned once it is checked.

What happens if you never receive a journal with questions in it? Then you have nothing to send your partner to rate you on, even though you did the first part of the survey? aye yi yi...

first part of the swap* i meant

If you dont receive a journal at all, contact me and I will deal with it.
