"embroiderymad, I applaud your efforts at 'cuties' to organise the voting - you did a valiant job to get the P, and you already have a lot of votes for the J, so may win that as well.

The problem I have with taking your request on board, is that my MANY cries for help from the Cuties to even refrain from voting for the next letter at CuteAlphabets, to enable an odd missed letter to 'slot in' (I didn't even ask for active voting - just a bit of a gap!) - fell on deaf ears!
As you know, EVERY one of the SiCKies that vote at Veronika's three sites are also Cuties - they couldn't vote if they weren't! - but not every Cutie is a SiCKie, and recently there have been some disparaging remarks posted at Cuteembroidery that have not helped with the 'entente cordiale' !
I wonder if you could maybe reiterate my pleas regarding the Cutealphabet voting, to the Cute community, and get a better understanding going between our two groups, and then I'm sure 'the SiCKies' will not feel so disregarded."

Without more votes we can not win. Someone made a comment the sick and cute are not the only groups voting BUT clearly what sick request they tend to get. So If you want your letters than we need to come to some agreement or find out what other groups are voting and see if they will work together.

Funny bear J 67 and K 50votes

At the moment sick is voting for the tiny font letters X 79votes
y 81 A 79 H 78 I 77 and S 78 my advice is if you need one of these letters Then let me know and maybe we should work together to get any of these letters that cuties need.

That sounds like a good plan, embroiderymad - I think that the problem seems to arise because there have not been many days break between alphabets at amazingembroiderydesigns of late, and so that has lead to a greater urgency to get as many old wishes fulfilled as possible. This time there does appear to be more of a break, and so more people can get caught up.
From what I have seen, the SiCKies have six letters that they need from the tinyfont, and if they manage those they will not have a backlog to deal with, and may well help out their fellow Cuties with their undoubted clout.

The way I read it they want cutes to let them vote for missed letters at cute alphabets before it finishes.

I must add the letters that have been coming up out of order is just as much a surprice to them at the moment as it is to everyone else and not because they are requesting it.

I am sorry if I had offended any persons on sick, that was not my intention at all. I had at one time tried to organize the voting and found it very difficult from all the other sites out voting us. I visit sick designs everyday and have ordered from them in the past and will continue. I do understand that every one is trying to get what they missed. Hugs to all. Lisa

Here is some of what motoandnutty (of SiCK and Cute)said a while ago about the voting at Cutealphabets :
"I wish that the Cuties would pay more heed to our requests to join together a bit more - Veronika has said that she won't post a new alphabet until the last one is completed, so it makes SO much sense to try for any missed letters as soon as possible.
There is NO NEED for so many votes for the next letter! - it just seems a bit mean to block out all chances for those that miss something. (There are so many reasons that someone cannot download on a particular day - that it seems a little harsh not to have a second chance.)"
And I heartily agree!

Yes alfiedak I read that when it was posted. I have to say that I did agree with them about squeeseing in some letters during the vote because at the end sometimes you only get 1 or 2 letters. Maybe you could vote for 2 or 3 letters during and then see what you get at the end.
HOWEVER MAYBE MISS VERONICA HAS HAD A ENOUGH OF THE TIFF'S AND IS NOW RUNNING THE ALPHA 1 LETTER AT A TIME BECAUCE IT APPEARS NOT TO MATTER WHAT THE VOTE COUNT IS THE NEXT LETTERS IS COMING UP.
