Sekret Santa

Anybody down for this idea? Pool names, and somebody with organizational skills can divy out the addys. Maybe a few simple rules, like all meepz must be homemade, or cost less than, say, $15. Another good rule would be anybody who signs up, gets a prezzie, but doesn't send one out has to french kiss nocal...on the mouth.


Anybody?

Confirmed gift meeps:

ghost
nocal
dragon
wotak
guitarjon
mstrlance
sunny777
nurglets
sadiesue
phlebas
clavis
spanky
vas
grapeape
heather
autoshoes
dent
b0bo
KAHUNA
godevillivedog

I'll keep this live until

tomorrow

or so, then randomly assign swarmers. I guess my satan won't be a sekret, but that's ok. In case of an odd number of participants, I'll gift the odd duck. PM(lol) me your addy, and your real name, unless you want a package addressed to Duckturd_123.


GO!

HEATHER IS SATANING UP YOUR SEKRETS

I'm really having trouble coming up with an idea for drawing names, as logic has never been my friend. Let's say I draw names from a hat. I pick two names, heather and vas. I send each of them a message naming the other as their gift benefactor. Both will know from whom their gift is coming from. Does anybody know a good 2 hat system?

Draw the first name. that person sends a gift to the second name drawn. Person #2 sends a gift to #3, who sends one to #4, and so on.

Right-o. And the last name drawn sends to the first name, works with an odd or even number. Man, where where you when I was flunking the maths?

or if you don't want anyone to know who it's from (to keep this satan a sekret) maybe only send an addy? no names.

Post Office doesn't really like that, and I know where most of the regulars live. nocal, for instance, lives in Wyoming.

that just occurred to me...just make up some name. To: murray mcardle, for example. i'm sure not everyone knows where everyone else lives, but for the ausmeeps and britmeeps, anyway.

Well, I got it figured out, anywho. It will be a surprise, like the phone call i got last night from azron.

i did actually legally change my name to Murray MacArdle, so...

MstrLance:
spankerchief: Hmm.... Homemade, less than 4lbs and under $15? All right, I'm in.

The four pounds was for international shipping consideration only. I don't think that a $15 hand-made treasure chest (or whatever) weighing in at 40 pounds or more is going to upset anybody.

Already working on it. (Not a chest, but you won't be dissapointed I swear.)

yeah, tears of joy. and what makes you think that i'm not an abrasive meep in real life?

As I remember, you have made this stand at least a few times, tough guy. When it comes to it, though, I think you'll make something cool for someone.

Since we got international playas up in here, I will cut this off on Nov. 20, and draw names. If you haven't send me your address, please do so.

and for the record, British and Aussie addys are strange.

I'm not making anything THAT nice. It won't be worth more than say, $50 even if my meep ever becomes collectible. I like that it's attracting folks to Ghostie's party, though.

A $15 chance to get a gift from our resident Renaissance man is also a chance to have spend an extra $15 to send a gift to England or Austria.

Didn't you read the thread? He's just coveting a present. It all makes sense if you think about it.

I'll say it yet again, I need to draw this meep, and everybody is anxious. If I do not have your address I will assume you do not want to participate.

Ok, I'm drawing this monday morning. This is my last post. if i don't have your full info by then, your out. I'm not gonna hunt for postal codes, or whatnot. In or out. your choice.
