Secret Santa 2006

[snoogans]

Ahoy thar!

Anyone interested in doing a Secret Santa this year??

I thought I'd start this forum in General Blabber now, and one of the administators can move it or start a new topic in the Forum Events section if we get enough response in here.

So what do you say??

[zeldasbiggestfan]

Seeing as I missed out last year Id love to do it. Sign me up.

[ArrowX]

this duded on the ball guys. I'm totally in for Secret Santa this year.

[WhiteRat]

Can someone explain how this works?

[Mockery]

Just look at last year's one and that should explain it all:

[Schimid]

This has always been a good idea.

lol i forgot about dental showdowns

[Mockery]

I think this year I'm making it a requirement that people own or have access to digital cameras. There was too much bullshit last year with people making excuses for not posting their secret santa pics.

[Ninjavenom]

I am absolutely in on this again.

[Mockery]

Yeah you got screwed over last year, and we'll make sure that doesn't happen again.

[eggyolk]

i'll participate this year

[RaNkeri]

Well, sounds like great fun and I'd love to participate...but sending a gift to USA from Finland (or vice versa) will cost D:

[Zomboid]

I could do it this year. I have access to a digital camera, but if not that I could use the one on my cell phone. It's got pretty good quality.

[noob3]

i'll do it but somone isn't going to like my

delicious hickory farms summer sausage gift basket

it comes with honey mustard sauce but i wouldnt trust it

[Mockery]

Well you already can't give that away since you said it. Your gift has to be "secret" hence the name of the game. Besides, it's about actually making an effort, going out and buying something fun/funny to send to someone. It's not about being a lazy bastard who's just in it to get some free shit. Not saying that's you, but we definitely seemed to have some people like that last year...

, I'll have to hope I get one for a gift real soon-like then.

[Grislygus]

Hell, I'll join.

[Chojin]

Ironically, the guy who started this thread most likely won't be eligible ;< Most of the fuckwits from last year were newbies and AMERICA CANNOT SURVIVE ANOTHER CHRISTMAS WITHOUT PRESENTS.

Maybe we should add a stipulation that people who have been here less than a year that want to play have to mail a 'test package' to i-mockery HQ and post a picture of themselves with their camera to prove they have the essentials required of this brave task.

[Grislygus]

Fine by me. Pic.

pm me the 'HQ' address and I'll send a test envelope.

[Mockery]

No prob, I'll send the address to ya in a PM.

Please include a note with your test envelope that states your forum name. Again, this is only required for people who have been on the forums for less than a year. We just want to make sure you're not some shithead trying to score some presents and then vanish forever. The people on here who participate go out of their way to make this a fun event, so don't try to fuck it up by not sending out a gift and/or not posting the photos of the gifts you receive.

[Chojin]

Yeah last year I sent johnny darko a box of adult diapers and a letter from bape written in blood and he stole away into the night with it ;<

[MarioRPG]

I knew I shoulda joined earlier. :/
Send me the address too (if you were serious), I'm pretty sure I'll get a cam for my b-day.

EDIT: Oh, and do we learn who the gifts are for before we buy them?

[Fathom Zero]

Nevermind, I won't be participating.

[FartinMowler]

I don't know if it's cause I'm really tired from a hard day of work or what but this made me chuckle for a while Oh and I would be happy to participate...

[Sam]

Italian Stereotype still owes me fucking pictures of what I sent him.

[snoogans]

Ok I totally know where you're coming from Chojin, I read all the posts from last year's Secret Santa in January while most of the shit went down about the random fuckwits, and their lack of cameras, lack of posting, and so on, so I can totally understand.

However, in my defence, and -Rog- should hopefully back me up on this, I'm not gonna do any of that stuff, cus i'm Simon, who just recently bought -Rog- something from his Amazon.com wishlist, so you know I'm good for it.

But, if you still want me to send a test package out, I will, cus I was quite bummed I wasn't on the forum since I started visiting the site a few years ago, and I wanna be a part of this.

Anywho, let me know!
