I have more testing to do but I think whats happening is its looking for a google account, not your personal email. To create the google sheet, I needed to create a google account which is in the format of "username of choice"@gmail.com. People can use their 420mag username, or any close variation.
This allows anonymity to be retained but also an approver will know who is asking. A step where a 420member sends a pm to another, as owner of the file, which advises of the gmail user name being used may help. Something like that....
I'm still researching if its possible to make it wide open - ie anyone with a gmail account can see the file(s) without any approval step.
The gang will need to reflect on who can do updates so that it doesn't become very confused.
All dependent on 420mag agreement to allow this of course.....I can see some safety risks/concerns. Easy to embed unwelcome software in one of these.

When I clicked the link, I got a screen saying that I needed to request access. I clicked the link, but if accessing the spreadsheet means sharing email addresses, that's not going to be popular in places where the herb is illegal...
Better would be just to make it accessible to all, I think.
Here's what the Google help file says (I added the red color):
Get permission to open a file
- Open the file.
- On the "You need permission" page, click Request access.
- The owner of the file will get an email asking for approval. After they approve your request, you'll get an email.
