OCR Secret Santa 2014

[Hyperion5182]

My gift should be there by now, has it arrived? I dont know if I made any indication that It was from me. So if you got a mystery gift from it could be me.

Without knowing who you sent it to i can not say. But if it was to me. It has not arrived.

Same here, but considering you (linkspast) had me LAST year, I highly doubt you got me again this year! But who knows.

It's not Christmas yet. There's still a few days. And even then, I'll just be working a double on the 25th anyway so if mine comes in a little late, so be it.

Thanks, Santa! Will be playing this tonight :3

No pics for this.

I'm still in need of a computer. Maybe it'll be a Christmas miracle but i doubt it. No matter building it my way is actually pretty damn fun.

I think Esperado decided to wait until i sent my gift to see what he could send me. I gotta tell you, that was a risk. For all he knew i could be someone who utterly hated tea.

But the fact of the matter is, i love tea. And i've wanted to go loose leaf for so long it isnt funny. But i've never had the chance to experiment.

I spent a long day shopping for the last gifts on my list. i came home to see the door open a crack...normally that doesnt happen. So i hop in the side door and head through that passageway heading into the house and opening the front door and i see an Amazon box.

Opening it i find Heavenly Tea... Loose Leaf tea sampler. Esperado, thank you so much. Your gamble was right on the money. =)

My victim/benefactor will unfortunately not receive their gift in time. I had to custom order it, but rest-assured it is super neat and you will get it. Sorry about the delay!

[DragonAvenger]

Just mailed out my gift today! Sorry to my recipient that it won't be on time for Christmas, but I put a little extra something in to compensate!

[Meteo Xavier]

I received a box from a certain OCR member today.

Which is weird, because I haven't been on Secret Santa in years.

Also, it sounds like it's ticking. I might want to be careful opening it...

Oh sorry, that shipment was meant for someone else. You were supposed to get the box with the dead kittens inside. They were alive when it was shipped but I forgot to put holes in the box.

[Meteo Xavier]

No, I got that box, and the kittens were very much alive.

Schrodinger was so pissed that he got up out of his grave, broke through my front door and bitch smacked me.

Glad you like it! i was worried that i might have gotten a flavor that you might not enjoy, people can be so picky about tea! otherwise i saw that you had mentioned loose leaf at some point.

[Zerothemaster]

Thanks Anorax! I'll def be wearing that link-santa shirt tomorrow for christmas :3

Also just to mention Cherna, sorry that my thing didn't get to you before you left for holiday, according to the estimates it was going to get there like today or tomorrow. Hopefully you won't hate it, I kinda just made a blind guess

hopefully i didn't break some unspoken rule by saying that lol

[Flexstyle]

I have this awesome stuff from The Damned! Thanks a ton sir, I'm looking forward to reading all these novels. I think my posting here got delayed since there's another Michael Birch in the house (my dad, also a sci-fi and fantasy junkie) and anything addressed to plain ol' "Michael Birch" without my middle initial, and addressed from Amazon is assumed to be for him, and I live in a large family so it took 'em a while to figure this out. Nevertheless, this collection will undoubtedly be devoured even before MAGFest hits. For what it's worth, I at least opened the boxes in the correct order.

THANK YOU!

I was worried that it somehow ended up missing. The package tracking said it was delivered, but I neer herd anything from you.

Did you enjoy my well-thought out, insightful holiday messages?

[Flexstyle]

Absolutely!

[DragonAvenger]

So The Damned actually got a present for you AND your dad? Nice work, good sir!

[Flexstyle]

It's true--I'll probably loan the books to him once I'm done, haha.

[The Damned]

[Koriantor]

Deia you're awesome! Thanks so much! I'm surprised you remembered our conversation about the shirt. Definitely made my day! Looking forward to replaying Chrono Trigger. Maybe this time I'll go for all the different endings. Also, The piranha plant was decapitated whilst shipping, but nothing some glue couldn't fix.

Thanks a ton! Rad gifts! :D:D

...my victims gift just came in so it should be shipped on Monday. Sorry for the delay!

[Brandon Strader]

Am I your victim Koriantor? Bwahah! I was gonna ask how many people were left to receive something but maybe that would give away who is getting from who, maybe best not to say

[Koriantor]

Brandon, if you were my victim I might consider intentionally holding it just to mess with you. You are not my victim though haha.

[Bahamut]

I was the victim heh - it's ok, I've been on vacation for the past 5 days or so (forgot to mention that).

In related news, thanks Rexy for the gift copy of Half Minute Hero! I'll be sure to try it out sometime in the next couple of weeks .

[Chernabogue]

News! My package arrived a few days ago, but I wasn't home (won't be until January), so Fedex kept it. Will call them this afternoon to see how things go.

They emailed me, but it was in French so I only kind of understood what was going on... but there was a phone number on there, if you need it lmk

Don't worry, I called them, and my package will be waiting for my return in a store.

Tables it said your gift arrived but I have no flipping clue which address was correct. Basically I was given two, I used the second one because Wes said the first wasn't valid yet and I didn't read this thread until after I sent your gift.
