Secret Santa 2013

Secret Santa!

Here's the idea: Everyone interested joins in and each forum member will get assigned another member to buy a Christmas gift for.

The rules:

1: You must have a minimum of 50 posts and have been a member for at least 3 months
2: Gift value not to exceed $25 before shipping
3: Deadline for joining will be November 25
4: PM your full name and shipping info to me. ***(see below)
5:If you join up and then need to back out for any reason that is OK. Just PM us and let us know by the deadline. No flaking! If you stiff someone we will know


Now, since we are spread out like butter on toast there are the obvious shipping concerns. To help with this we will pair up the members the best we can according to location. West coast US guys with other West coast guys, Canadians with other Canadians...you get the idea. We'll try to eliminate the need for any international shipping. To help you guys see who is where we'll sign up by location for now. If we need more locations just post up and say "hey!" and we'll add them as we need them. Don't worry if there doesn't seem to be a partner for your area-go ahead and sign up-we gotcha covered.

 To join in just copy and paste the sign up list and enter your name where it needs to go. Remember to shoot a PM with your FULL NAME AND SHIPPING INFO BY NOVEMBER 25!!  I will contact you by end of the month November to let you know who your Secret Santa member is to buy for.

As each member sends the PM with their info I will mark them on the list as "VERIFIED" so we know how things are going.

Also, it might help to give a gift suggestion for yourself. Like t-shirt size, preferred area for gift cards,etc.

So who's in?  I am!  





*** Since Rerun and LukeM tend to stay so busy, Tools and myself will handle this for sake of simplicity-so PM one of us. If everyone wants to just PM me it might make it easier to keep it all straight. I will have full disclosure with Tools to just make sure I don't screw this up. And just in case I end up in your Spam folder my email is shinyribs1 at gmail dot com.

Looks like it's just going to be me, and you. Won't be very secret.

I'm in. I'll send someone a print of one of my photos or a gift that's on their list if they prefer.

For me….anything for a 'Man cave'. Posters, old car or bike stickers, old gears to hang on the wall, a melted piston to put on a shelf, you get the idea.

It's December 9th and I just noticed your November 25th post about sending out emails with your member for the game. I never got it yet. Checked my spam folders and everything.
