I'll say you are good. Looks like postal systems are having problems. The lack of passenger flights is likely a part of the problem they carry a lot of cargo. Canada Post is even promising slower deliveries due to online shopping.
Alright, I'm in (I think). My tardy cards for round 48 are currently drying, and I hope to have them out in the post tomorrow. However, Japan Post is ... I don't know what it is. Officially it's not delivering mail to certain countries, but is accepting mail from others, however it's not always clear if that includes parcels or postcards and letters (either direction). Long story short, if I can send the tardy cards now, even surface, I will. If I can't...does this disqualify me from Round 50? I'd really like to be a part of it. If I can be, I'm in for the max, if it's an issue, I'll understand.

Nige,
Good to see you are in for the magic round 50. I remember meeting up with you to look at your Mamiya 645 gear before I purchased my own. Way back then you were developing film but not printing, have you had a chance to make your own prints in the darkroom yet? Not that it matters for this exchange.
So you are saying that I come back to the postcard exchange just to hear that I do not get a card from you? That's a pity.... Sadly, I don't see being able to participate again this coming round.
Even more a pity for me Ruediger.So you are saying that I come back to the postcard exchange just to hear that I do not get a card from you? That's a pity.

Ruediger returns to the Postcard Exchange - that is worth celebrating!

I do no longer have a darkroom. But for the sake of the 50 ... I can not resist. I will be able to send something analog. Cyanotypes should qualify. But I might need a bit of experimentation to get to the needed negative contrast first. So let me go in with a low number. I think 10 would be good for the first time again.
Cheers
Ruediger

Thanks for the warm welcome back Darwin, and also Jake and Rachelle and Matt.... WOW! A blast from the past. Ruediger, welcome back to the Postcard Exchange. It is great to hear from you. How is jst? I look forward to whatever card you decide to send. I have sent cyanotypes on watercolor paper through the mail, and they survive postal system quite well. ...
Thanks Darwin. Tell you what, if I manage to get something set up in the next couple of months, I'll PM my new address to you, and you can confirm your address, and we can do a side exchange.Matt, this is truly a bummer. You have been one of the core Postcard Exchange members for so long. I hope you get the darkroom operational for the next PCX round. If you PM me your new address I could add you to my address list for round 50.
