Rexy Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 This event had been discussed behind the scenes, and after much deliberation, I feel it's time to spread some holiday cheer! Anyway, I'm sure by now you know how a Secret Santa works - get assigned to someone, send gifts and the like. You can do so either physically or digitally - though, whether's the most convenient option is up to you. Please use this form to add your details. This will make it easier for me to keep entrants organized, and less clutter in my PM box. The deadline for signups is November 1st at 2PM Eastern Time. I will then match people up and send details out. Keep in mind that you don't need to spend a fortune to your recipient. It's possible to give memorable gifts that don't cost as much. Otherwise, come along and join up! Ho ho ho! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garpocalypse Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Did this years ago and someone, who i still have no idea who it was, sent me a single pack of guitar strings... However those strings were my first pack of Ernie Ball Cobalt strings which I use exclusively on my ESP now because they are absolutely amazing. So thanks anonymous benefactor because now they are the gift that I keep on giving... to myself. So what the hell i'll sign up again.

The Damned Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) I'm up. I recall a few years prior where someone got a tabletop-full of sci-fi books and another year with some Power Rangers/Super Sentai mecha figures. Other years, it was 3DSs and games. I don't remember who, exactly, but they were good exchanges those years. I'm kinda surprised we didn't do it the last couple years. Oh, people, if you have Steam or PSN or whatever, don't forget to include your IDs in case you happen to have stuff on your wishlists. And your amazon as well. Some years, it gets hard to figure out what to get. I had to ask the guy running it one year because I just could not get a hint and it turned out my recipient as into something I had no idea was a thing.

Doulifée Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I got some pretty cool memorabilia from those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hmmm... Do we really only have five or six people so far? That's going to make guessing who you got a bit easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 You’re right. There’s only six of us including myself, which will make things pretty difficult, ngl. While I really don’t want to delay matching up due to Black Friday sales starting early, it seems that’ll be necessary due to the turnout we have so far. I’ll check the responses again on Monday and see what it’s like then; if still no change, I’ll hold off from matchups until Thanksgiving itself.

Mr. Hu Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I'm down. Sign me up. Or, I'll sign myself up. Christmas is barely a month away already, holy crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Alright, so I've stuck true to my word and made matchups for everyone on Thanksgiving eve. Everyone who filled in the form should have a forum or Discord PM detailing their match. Let's spread some Christmas cheer!

prophetik music Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 sent mine out! it's arriving on monday and also early january, lol...sometimes amazon shipping is remarkably weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Mine is also sent out. Also, Rexy mentioned that mine was having trouble because I am terrible at listing things. LEGO is also good. Pokemon plush is also also good. Please forgive my lac of item clarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doulifée Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I'll buy the postal package today and the gift will be sent in the following days. prophetik music 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I reaaaally hope US customs didn't freak out for some reason and throw out/return what I sent... because that parcel was sent out three weeks ago and I haven't heard if the recipient has gotten it or not yet. Though, someone did start gutting the postal service down there, and combine that with the x-mas rush and the covid thing forcing everyone to send stuff instead of visiting in person... it might be sometime in January when it actually arrives.

Yeah, I heard that the USPS got jammed up over the holidays. Unless you've marked it for tracking, I don't know of any other way you could check and see if it's moving along the system D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetik music Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 most cities are totally hosed right now when it comes to postage delivery. it'll get there probably =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) I assume the keychain is from you, Proph. If not... too late! Trinkets were a nice little customization in Borderlands 3, and should fit nicely with my totally not a Nerf gun Sandhawk sniper rifle and OH SHIT A RADIOACTIVE MONKEY!! SHOOT IT! SHOOT IT! (The Nerf gun is not a present, I jsut thought it would look cool with the vault logo on it) Edited January 6, 2021 by The Damned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetik music Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 it is! i didn't expect it to get there for another week. glad you like it =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Now for the gift I sent to arrive to the person I sent it to. Any day now. Any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
