DTF SECRET SANTA 2013: Let me know when you ship!

[Dr. DTVT]

Well folks, I hate being the early X-mas guy, but with the logistics involved in getting gifts early and all, I have to start this early.  Please note the new rules.  If you can follow the rules, sign up below and leave a "need by" date if you are leaving town/school for the holidays.  Default date is Dec. 15, that way we avoid the shipping deluge.  If you have a true "need by" date, a return date would also be helpful incase you have to get your gift out late.  We can split into N. America and Europe again, but the Euros were where most of the problems came from last year.

Rules:
*  Don't tell anyone who you have.  If you need gift ideas, PM me and I will contact your SS, or you can post suggestions for yourself in this thread once the matchmaking is done.
*  Gifts should be around $30 not including shipping.
*  Plan on shipping your gift at least a week before someone's "Need by" date.  Different people might have different dates, be courteous to your recipient.
*  Don't put your name on the package.  Use Kevin Moore, Mike Porntoy, or some other forum joke for your name.  Use your real address for the return address though, just in case something happens and your package needs to get sent back to you.
*  Pictures or video of you opening is required.  Video preferred.
*  I have last year's matches, so if you participated last year, you won't give to the same person this year.
*  If you were shafted last year, I will make sure a reliable member of the boards gets you this year.
*  If your person didn't get a gift from you last year, you are out unless you provide restitution (send the person a gift).
*  If you get a gift from lonestar, you are not allowed to do anything that will get you banned from the forums for at least a year (lonestar got letters and lateralus88 the last two years).
*  There is a minimum "notoriety" requirement this year.  In all but two cases, the person who fails to give a gift is a newbie.  A repeat of last year's non-participants is unacceptable.

[alirocker08]

Out of interest, who gave me my gift last year?

Depending on the European interest, I'll enter.

[Elite]

Count me in again

[Nick]

I'm in, got shafted last year so match me up with someone who isn't a hoser.

[King Postwhore]

I'm in.

[jingle.boy]

I'm in, got shafted last year so match me up with someone who isn't a hoser.

Guess that means I'm out for you.

But I'm in for anyone else.

[Dr. DTVT]

Elite

[Ben_Jamin]

What if that persons gift got lost in the mail?

[gmillerdrake]

Sign me up. Haven't done this in the past but have meant to. And just a reminder to Chad....you can't re-gift used sex toys. No one wants your red gag ball. 

 I'm not the most computer literate person so when it comes to uploading the vid of gift opening I'm going to require assistance.

[lonestar]

I'm in, highly doubt I can top last year's epicness though.

[gmillerdrake]

I'm in, highly doubt I can top last year's epicness though.

Epicness of gift received or gift given?

[JayOctavarium]

Idk about this year. Christmas is gonna be tight this time around. I'll let you know!

[lonestar]

I'm in, highly doubt I can top last year's epicness though.

Epicness of gift received or gift given?

Both, though I was referring to the DTF Memeber of the Year plaque I sent Lateralus, it's kinda hard to beat my Mr. Bacon's Adventure boardgame that Potpie got me.

Thanks for the description! This gives me a frame of reference and idea that this isn't just a trip to the store to pick up a Swiss Colony Beef Log. Gotta get creative with this....which both of those gifts are.

Or the Fetish porno that Jackie got you the previous year.

[jingle.boy]

No one wants your red gag ball. 

I wouldn't think so, given all the different orifices mrs.jingle and I have used it in.

That was quite epic.

[ariich]

I don't know who my person was last year, but I never received a gift. Doc, did you ever establish whether they definitely sent anything? It was probably postal problems.

I think I'll probably sign up again, because the year before I got awesome gifts from Alice.

[Ben_Jamin]

I'm in, got shafted last year so match me up with someone who isn't a hoser.

It was me, I sent out some green chili and a couple local items(can't remember what they were though). Apparently it got lost in the mail.

[XJDenton]

I would like to be in. I don't think my gift arrived to the person last year though.

[Nick]

Oh, sorry. Never have had any sort of issue with the mail here, but sorry to see that this was a first. I rescind your title of hoser.

First time for everything.

[Dark Castle]

I'm in
EDIT: I'd need before the 20th.

[alirocker08]

Well then, thank you for the gifts Elite! I've been keeping that book relatively up to date

Of course you did, I'm the best at gifts.

[Lolzeez]

Depending on the European interest, I'll enter.

Yeah maybe I might join in too! 

[yeshaberto]

I'm down for North America

[Elite]

I think I'll probably sign up again, because the year before I got awesome gifts from Alice.

Well then, thank you for the gifts Elite! I've been keeping that book relatively up to date

Cool! I kind forgot that, though I remember the hat. You still have that one as well?

[alirocker08]

I've kept the hat, don't worry, but I left it at home :/ It's in my attic right now!

[Chino]

Count me in!

[Scorpion]

How does South America factor into this? Because if it would work, I'd be on board this time.

Seriously.

[bout to crash]

I would hope the South Americans can participate as well!

I'm in, as usual. And willing to ship out of the US if necessary.

Or the Fetish porno that Jackie got you the previous year.

 

edit: oh, and no "need by" date for me. I'm out of PTO- ain't goin' nowhere after Thanksgiving in Texas.

[Implode]

Sign me up! Last year was fun; I'd like to choose even better gifts this time. At the latest I'd need the gift by the 11th. That way, I can recording the opening while I still have my computer.

[DebraKadabra]

I'd love to participate again this year - last year's was a total blast!

US/N America only, no needed-by date.

[lonestar]

*  If you get a gift from lonestar, you are not allowed to do anything that will get you banned from the forums for at least a year (lonestar got letters and lateralus88 the last two years).

 

Just noticed this, guess you could say getting a gift from me is the kiss of death.

[Elsydeon]

Ah hah! I made sure to see this thread before the deadline this time. I am so in!
