Title: Second Annual Secret Santa Gift Exhange!
Post by: idolminds on Saturday, November 10, 2007, 12:33:37 AM
Sign up here! (http://www.elfster.com/Santa/Join.aspx?euid=2F7CBAD7-BF83-43D3-8A1F-A722D9DCA05A)

The sign up deadline is Saturday, December 01, 2007. The names will be drawn on that date, so be signed up before then!

Its that time again. If you're new, this is how it works: You get added to the big list-o-names. The site will draw names randomly for each person, and you'll get an email telling you who you got. This is all anonymous, they won't know you have their name and you wont know who has yours. Thats part of the fun, you see.

Price limit is $10. Be creative! Box up your gift and mail it to your secret santa buddy to make them all happy for the holidays. Then sit by the mailbox and wait for your gift! Unless your mailbox is a distance from your house, then don't sit by it. Frostbite is bad.

Please don't sign up if you aren't going to send a gift. It kinda messes things up.

Let's make this the best gift exchange yet, people! We should get everyone on the boards involved, and everyone should give fun and creative gifts! Let's go!

Cool, I'm down for this again.  I never did get my gift/card last year though, guess the post office lost it or something.

Hey raisa, once you know where the stuff can be sent just tell me and I'll pass it along to the person. No sense ruining the surprise early.

My person has no wishlist.  I will send them an empty box.  Actually, I can't really afford to send much of anything anyway, so... sorry person.  You'll know you got something from me because it will suck ass.

Well I purchased my person's present, I'm sure they will like it.

I'm still waiting for the box to put the stuff in. Plus maybe theres some extra odds and ends I can drop in there. Otherwise I get the box and can send it out.

I'm still trying to figure something out.  No ideas so far, but I'm working on it.

hahaha... well to be fair, they've increased the limit to 25 kg so surely Raisa can fit in.

I finally updated my profile with my address. Hopefully that didn't throw anyone off.

I'm JUST sending mine out today..  I'm going to send it via registered mail though.. Sorry to whoever gets it.  It's nothing much but I went over the budget a little but whatever.. I recycled the outer envelope so that makes up for it... 

Idol, should I send you my address?
Title: Re: Second Annual Secret Santa Gift Exhange!
Post by: idolminds on Thursday, December 13, 2007, 11:42:30 PM
If you've got one, PM it to me and I'll give it to your santa.

Idol *is* Santa.  It's more obvious when he trims the rapist beard.

Yeah, Dustin is TheOtherBelmont.  He had me last year.

Sorry I couldn't participate this year.  Very tight budget.

ah, good. I was hoping you got the stuff, Pyro.
Title: Re: Second Annual Secret Santa Gift Exhange!
Post by: Raisa on Sunday, December 23, 2007, 02:17:36 AM
i'm wondering if my person got the gift...
Title: Re: Second Annual Secret Santa Gift Exhange!
Post by: Ghandi on Sunday, December 23, 2007, 12:35:29 PM
If anyone sent me a gift it went to my apartment and I won't get it for a week or so...so that's why I haven't responded.

Well gifts are going to be late, but Im sure you'll all be occupied with your current gifts by the time mine arrive. :)

My gifts are gonna' be late too, including the non-secret santa ones.  Everything got jacked with some I was doing, then there was ordering confusion for some stuff, then when I finally got my act mostly together, the freaking post office was closed today.  So nothing gets out 'till Wednesday, and even then I'll still be behind on the DVDs I'm trying to make since the last one just won't work...
