Unfortunately, the title says it all.

We have been trying to make our schedules work to run Chocolate Box this year but as of today we realized that this was unlikely to happen, and that it was unfair to you all to keep you waiting while we tried to make the exchange happen regardless. We're sorry, both for having to cancel it for this year, and the late announcement. We know it's a disappointment. It's one for us as well. We really did try hard to make this work.

We hope to see you all again next year, bright-eyed and keen to make some sweet chocolate bites for everyone!

I'm very sorry to hear this and I hope everything is okay at your end! I look forward to the exchange's return next year.

In the meantime, some kind people are running a one-time replacement exchange (just for this year, it's not meant to be some kind of rival exchange for CB). Would you be willing to post a link to the community so more people can see it? https://candyheartsex.dreamwidth.org/

I'm guessing Chocolate Box is no more, since this is the third year without it?
