A few of you blokes posted about this in another thread. docstop was in charge last year but he just had a kid and hasn't posted in close to a month so not sure if he'd want to organize (docstop, if you read this in the near future and want to take over just lemme know). So without further ado, shall we get the ball rolling on this? I think we should. If you'd like to participate in this year's Secret Santa there's a couple things we can do to help move it along smoothly. First, send me a PM saying you want in. Also, be sure to reply below so I can ensure I don't miss anyone. Typically I have an Amazon wish list that I can link to and I think it's the easiest way to do things as it's also linked to the user's home address. If you have one or can make one (it's super easy) include the link as well. If you want to do it the hard way then send me your name, address and a list of 4 or 5 things you wouldn't mind getting from your Secret Santa. PLEASE include the links to these items so your partner doesn't have to go digging for them with the possibility that they'll get you the wrong gift.
To keep things nice and even lets set the price of the 'gift' at around $20, $25 tops. If there are multiple items that are a few bucks each then pick up more than one to get around that $20 mark. Only message me if you're serious about doing it and won't forget, I don't want anyone getting screwed.
In a week I'll leave a list of people who have sent me PMs so you can make sure I included you. After that I'll lock it in and send you guys your 'partner.' You can send the gift at any time but do it before Christmas. If you have any suggestions or recommendations then please share, this is my first stab at this.
Take it away, guys.
EDIT:
To reiterate, if you wish to participate please send me a PM and be sure to include one of the following. A) Your Amazon wish list. or B) Your name, address and links to 4 or 5 things for your Secret Santa to pick from.

I won't be doing it this year as I'm about to post all the Interstellar freebies I recently found under my bed that I thought I'd sent already...

Glad to see Doom has picked up the slack for me and that this is still going. Can't manage it this year but hoping there is lots of interest still.

Still waiting on lists from some people. I want to get the ball rolling on this so people have time to make selections, have items shipped, etc. If I don't have lists by this Friday I'm going to have to move on without you. I would like to have as many people participate as possible but I don't want to postpone for too long.
