Rather than make humorous post I was planning I'll just post it nowWE HAVE RETURNED!
Welcome back everyone! For those who were not around for the festivities last year, this is your basic Secret Santa. Those participating will receive the name of another poster and be tasked with sending them a present this holiday season. Everyone loves surprises!

I was going to post it yesterday but my internet went out, but it's here now so :V

Signing
up my ass my ass up.
oh wait :derp:
edit: Vic, add the h policy thing we had last year too.
I don't remember anyone actuually buying h-stuff, but still.
edit2: it's there already lol. bitch, I can't read anymore
-
Suggestion that you compare the randomized sendlist to last year's so nobody has the same Santa or recipient twice in a row.
-
Coincidences could be fun, though.
I think it'd be best just to leave it totally random. :/
-
I like Drake's pseudo-random idea, that's just my opinion.
And woo was looking forward to this. :3
-
Totally jumping in on this. Last year was fun.
-
Sad girl in snow.
You should find a picture of Letty in a bikini, and update your personal text to "Sad girl on beach."

Noted, I still have the PMs from last year, so I'll compare it to those.
-
Suggestion: a list of participating people in the op post?
-
this legit?
-
this legit?
I got Grimoire of Marisa in this last year(thx Arashi~), so yeah, it's legit.
-
I am in this year.
hopefully everything goes well and Malaysian mail doesn't get lost somewhere during shipment and end up in a poor boy's apartment in China. was sooooo jealous of you lot last year having your fancy presents and all that unwrapped.
-
this legit?
No. In reality all the Secret Santa gifts are sent and distributed among all the moderators, and we send you back gift-wrapped expired coupons in return.
Merry christmas! :toot:
-

Always happy to oblige. (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/161416/%E2%91%A8-2girls-bikini-cirno-danshaku-food-fruit-hat-le)
(nsfw, danbo, etc.)
-
Suggestion: a list of participating people in the op post?
I was thinking of doing that once it was underway, but this might bring more people in!
this legit?
Do you not want it to be? It's quite legit, but I can make an exception for you ;D
-
oh man I really want to do this but I am too poor this year : (
-
Man I wanna do this but I'm really self-conscious about picking out something they won't like :ohdear:
-
Thinking about it. AUSA is right before the deadline to sign up and the Hen Da Ne guys always have good Touhou stuff.
Who am I kidding? I'm in.
-
Hey y'all, don't forget to post your zip code or postal code, packages won't reach you without them
-
I wonder if I should use logistics company services?
I dunno, I am gonna go out of a limb and use DHL or UPS, which is much more reliable.
it will be costly however. if so would the receiver share the costs? (it is fine if they won't, understanding the general age group here are probably poor students)
-
Actually, you may want to bump the send-by date for anyone shipping internationally IIRC from last year.
Also Vic you should make sure to put your name in the hat too this year :V :V :V

Terrorists.

No idea how good of an idea it is for me but I'm in, PM going once I get conformation on some info
-
I missed this last year, much to my regret, so I'd like to toss my name in this year! I'll send the application PM in a few moments.
-
Oh bby, this year will have a lot of people~
-
The more people who sign up, the better!
-
Oh yeah, just a reminder
It's a secret santa, so please don't do it like many did last year and sign your cute little letters, okay :derp:
-

Spoilers: Everyone's actually mailing a present to me!
Nah, just kidding

I'm in. Ladies, feel free to hop in a cardboard box and send yourself as your gift. :smug:

Updated the first post with a list of participants!

We'll see, if we get enough people I'll consider adding myself in there

I said the same thing in a PM :<
Jump in, dawg.

If you don't enter, Vic, I will punch you in the face when I see you at Comiket.

We currently have 11 people signed up. If we get 11 more by Friday I'll definitely do it!
-
I'd enter this, it seems fun, but:
a) I don't think I have enough of a connection with you all.
b) No money.
c) I would probably forget and get banned...
Although maybe next year....
-
It's really only Part C that's the issue - I know there's no crazy high minimum $$$$ value of gifts and some people send handmade stuff, and honestly I did it last year when I was not nearly as involved and still enjoyed it!
I'm holding off on sending my stuff in the off-chance I'd be living somewhere else come end of December buuuuut that's looking less and less likely. Expect applications from MJP and myself shortly :V
-
I propose that if Vic doesn't put his name on the list, a bunch of us threaten to send him gifts so he'll feel even more guilty :yukkuri:
-
Or just ban him :V
-
guys, if you are thinking financial issues, you should:
get a short term job, no commitments and get the gift, it has nothing to do with the value in $$$, it is the thought that counts!
(although if you were to send just a postcard, you might as well just stay outta it)
there is no limit being ambitious and look hey guys... I already prepared my gift(s)~ YOU NIGGAS BETTER LIKE IT OR I WILL....
-
/in because Vic needs to get in on this action.
-
Whoever gets A-F has an obligation to send him a postcard now.
-
Only 1 week(-ish) left to sign up!
-
Fuck, I gotta start browsing for the present.
-
Whoever gets A-F has an obligation to send him a postcard now.
spoilers: said postcard has to be studded in gold and diamonds. It should read 'with love, mum'
ehehe, I got mine already~
-
13 signed up now. Y'all only got 6 days left to sign up (counting today)
-
Shirorokku. I miss you, dude. Like, so bad.
-
ATTN AXMAN
:<
-
IT'S ON MOTHAFUCKAS
-
14 now! YEAH BUDDY!
-
That list needs to be bigged even more. :<
-
I need to verify where I'll be living in mid-late December first guys :ohdear:
-
Send the package to work?
-
I'd rather someone know where I live than where I work :ohdear:
But if we don't here back by like tomorrow/Friday re: HOUSEGET I'll put in my current place since that means we're here until at least Jan 1st.
-
Don't you have some kind of over-the-counter pickup thing? Like tell the post office you're expecting something and you get notified to fetch it once it arrives.
-
Well gosh it'd be expensive to ship something to here :P
I'm not willing to send parcels internationally, though, so I guess I won't be participating =[
-
I don't know if it's 5 days or not right now since I'm one day ahead but I'm going to assume it's still five day!
-
Sign the fuck up, people :<
-
So it's the 11th back home, meaning four days?
Let's get some more sign-ups cracking!
-
Maybe you should lead by example
-
Maybe you should lead by example
I don't think anyone would like it very much if I signed them up myself :<
-
He means sign your own goddamn ass up, we want you in
-
We need one more person so that we have an odd number, so Vic can join in.
come on trianglesss
-
Arashi didn't sign up either
Arashiiii--

*looks into empty wallet*
Have fun!

DING! Applied!
Also told the husband to do so as well.
-
Dammit, I put current address. I should have put work because I don't care. BRB, PMing Vic.
-
We got 16 signed up, and I'm fairly certain it's more than we had last year! Sweet!
Tons of fun to be had! More should sign up!
-
WHICH MEANS YOU TOO VIC :getdown:
-
VIC VIPER
WHY IS YOUR NAME NOT YET ON THE LIST
VIC VIPER
PUT YOUR BLOODY NAME ON THE LIST
-
Arashi didn't sign up either
Arashiiii--
Arashi is unemployed and also living at home where her mother will probably spaz about "ZOMG PUTTING YOUR ADDRESS ON THE INTERNET" so no not this year.
-

For reasons entirely unrelated to anything else, I have to :getdown: at this.

... eh, fuck it, I've got decent savings for a while and I can always lie and go "lol college friends". At least if it's shipped from somewhere in this fucking country for sure. I miiiiiiiiight be able to swing it if it's from overseas. :V
-
Oh wow, it's that time of the year again.
Have fun, everyone! :3
(just glad Vic really announced this 2nd one ?3... Also, pardon me for not having somewhat important message to say besides "Have fun!" or something :ohdear:)
-
OK, because the boards were down, I'm adding an extra day to sign-up!
The deadline is now 12:01AM (GMT-5) WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17!!
No late sign-ups will be taken. Partners will be assigned that day (Wednesday)!
FINE I'LL SIGN UP!

It's the same as last year, though :s
-
http://www.reddit.com/r/japan/comments/e6atq/japan_post_halts_all_shipments_to_the_usa_that/
Not sure how relevant this is to everyone, but this could put a damper on at least one person!
-
That limit's probably around or a bit less than one pound though so it's still workable, just don't send bricks :V
-
Also, it only applies to packages to the USA. Everywhere else in the world is the same as usual.
-
Clearly you must send it to me.
-
vic is joining yaaaay
-
That is a terrible rule, the US is silly :<
Still in regardless~
-
Heh, dat rule
Anyway wee vicin
-

Sucks if the person in Japan wants to send a book or two.
Also, it only applies to packages to the USA. Everywhere else in the world is the same as usual.
Yeah, but that's still kind of annoying, especially if anyone in the US is getting something from, say, Vic or if anyone wants to get anything from you. Unless you want to ship it to Canada and then go from there.
-
I'll get /in on this. :ohdear: @ gift selection tho.
-

or everything from japan could go to me
-
20 people signed up now :getdown:
-
Just to point out, there is less than 24 hours to sign up!
-
20 people signed up now :getdown:
How many people signed up last year for gift exchange?
-
13, so we're off to a much better start so far!
-
Heh. Heh heh.
Heh heh heh.
-
13, so we're off to a much better start so far!
Awesome.
Also, I may pick a random user and send them something creative in their PM box. THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN.
-
I'd say that more people should be doing random nice things for users if they're in the spirit of the season. That's a pretty neat idea~
-
well, unlucky for you guys I probably skip sending you guys what I have as the bloody thing does weight more than 500gms
I have to change gifts now.
of course, I suppose if you all don't mind waiting, I could send it to maybe someone in Canada as suggested above.
It says on Twitter that sea mail is not affected, what does that mean exactly? like, general post by sea? Because that could take months.
-
I have to change gifts now.
You might not get an american to begin with, y'know :derp:
-
AF's in Malaysia, isn't he? I don't see how Japan's shipping would affect him unless he's ordering something from there. BV
-
I know Japan and Hong Kong were affected, but it was only on packages to the US.
Also, spellcheck says that Hong isn't a word wtf
-

i won't be surprised our country being listed as one of the possible terrorism channels anyway. it has happened before and this new paranoia will just struck a new chord.

Fuck, I don't even know what I'm giving.

I would gladly do it if I had the power to actually use my money. I don't get that until I move out of the house. This is the same reason I couldn't do the last one, either.
I miss out on all the best things. ;_;

OK SIGN-UPS ARE CLOSED!

-
I got someone in the States, but I think I can manage.
I hear cell phone straps make for wonderful presents!
Also, there were 13 American participants and 7 from everywhere else.
-
Shouldn't be really hard for anyone to keep their packages under 500g, too :/
-
Yo Reimu I'mma send you some 8lb dumbbells-
It should be easy for everyone, I think, unless you're planning on a big hardcovered book or something.
-
Last month I bought a book that weighs easily some 10kg.
But I'm not giving that one :V
-
Damn, I guess I'm not going to be sending NForza all of my old textbooks after all. :(
-
Damn, I guess I'm not going to be sending NForza all of my old textbooks after all. :(

You can send heavy stuff TO Japan just fine.

tentacles

Ohoho this is gonna be fun :V

Ah, what to get, what to get!
I'm so excited and yet so afraid that what I may end up getting for someone may be really bad. ><
THIS IS BRILLIANT! [I feel special being one in those 7.]

Just wanted to mention, some of us live in the 3rd world, where things sometimes just don't *quite* work as they were intended to. Thus gifts sent to us *might* get stuck in customs or whatever, and be delayed.
Last year the book Arashi gave me arrived in February.
So basically providing Vic with a tracking number or at least a means to prove you did send the package is vital.
I had to hear all sorts of crap from my mother during those months I didn't get the gift. :s
-
Imma get posting mine tomorrow, I hope.
-
posting it this weekend.
-
A few reminders:
12/07/10 is the last day to ship your packages. You should have them shipped sooner if possible!
PM ME WHEN YOU SHIP YOUR PACKAGE! Don't wind up on my naughty list. You should also include your TRACKING NUMBER in the PM.
I am shipping my gift out this week, my first time shipping something from Japan :ohdear:
-
CHRISTMAS IS ONLY 24 DAYS AWAY OH BOY!!
(Send your packages!)
-
Oh man oh man my gift is sitting on the kitchen table taunting me until Christmas :V
-
Has everyone sent out a package of sorts or did we have issues? I HOPE we didn't have any problems... :ohdear:
I even got one of those dinky little 18" trees from home so's I can put my present underneath it.
-
My package has been sent, and it's apparently sitting on triangles's kitchen table.
SURPRISE! Just kidding.
....or am I?
:3
-
Hope whoever got me likes what I'm giving them lol.
-
Has everyone sent out a package of sorts or did we have issues? I HOPE we didn't have any problems... :ohdear:
Mine has to go out tomorrow due to problems with the post office.
-
I sent my package into space. If my calculations are correct, it should land via parachute at its destination soon.
-
Eeewww I don't want Edible's package.
-
I...I.... arrggghhhhhh bloody DHL is close today!! (can't check my delivery status)
-
Mines going out tomarrow, due to stupid reasons around here. Nice thing is that thanks to my mother working at the post office here, Its going to be thrown directly into to the bin to the right place, speeding up transit
-
Mine is going out tomorrow because of processing reasons.
What kind of processing, though? :D
-
Mine was sent on the 3rd, so all is well on my end.
Wonder who is sending me something... Can't wait to get whatever it is! XD
-
Put mine in the mail already
-
And this is why I set the deadline so ridiculously early!
-
To be fair, I was trying to get hold of something and then it vanished. So what I ended up buying was...
a) The subject of something I was thinking of that became relative.
b) Something I could get before the deadline.
On that note, did you get my PM Viper? I've been sending messages to people and not getting replies lately, so I'm just checking to see if it isn't me being paranoid. ^^

disqualifiiiiiiied
-
I'm dropping mine off at the post office later today~
Also, I already have my received package sitting where the other gifts will go. Thanks for sending it so super-early and with expensive shipping, special-friend, but you didn't really have to! Now I'm embarrassed for not having sent mine yet.
-
disqualifiiiiiiied
like, permaban him
-
I haven't got mine yet and if they haven't sent it out, it's already late.
-
Package was delivered. Be prepared to receive my god-awful NNWM manuscript! :D Great for the fireplace.
-
The Joisey representatives have sent ours :V
-
Got my gift. Strangely, there were two 1-dollar bills on the box when I went outside. Either the postman was really generous, or my SS had some very awkward delivery instructions.
Edit: Oh yeah, shipped mine off. Post office said my special someone should get it within the next few days!
-

As in "read this by the fireplace" or "please use this to start a fire"?
-
I haven't got mine yet and if they haven't sent it out, it's already late.
Hell, if my partner hasn't sent mine out yet, I'll probably get it in July or something :V
-
Hell, if my partner hasn't sent mine out yet, I'll probably get it in July or something :V
I'd sent yours out like a week or two ago by this time last year. So yeah. :V (Well, I'd ordered it to be shipped straight there from wherever the hell, but it'd shipped out then, same difference.)
-
Yeah, and it arrived in uh, February. I had almost forgotten about it already
Hey, good thing my birthday's in July then :V
-
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
-
post office dude was late so it's actually shipping tonight instead of staying at the office for a day
sweet
-
A certain someone will have to suffer a certain vocal android and insufferable puns on dick jokes and masturbatory in jokes this joyous season.
-
As in "read this by the fireplace" or "please use this to start a fire"?
The best choice is always word choice. :flamingv:
And I got my package in the mail today! :* But Cirno Claus lives in __________
? :ohdear:
-
NO OPENING PRESENTS UNTIL THE 25TH!
Let them taunt you until then!
-
Mines sent out, but not sure if my mother ended up getting a tracking number and what it is. Will PM it if/what it is
-
Never fucking mind me I misread stuff completely.
-
NO OPENING PRESENTS UNTIL THE 25TH!
Cirno's elves between here and Gensokyo
started playing dodge ball with mine or something and it was already ripped open about two-three inches in the corner when I got it :ohdear:
I didn't open it further to see if there was any actual damage but :ohdear: :ohdear:
-
So count off, who's gotten their gifts so far?
-
@Vic: The gift I was going to send is on backorder. I was hoping that'd clear itself up in time, but seeing as it's already a few days past the deadline I'm just gonna cancel it and send something else.
-
Whoever JT got gets 2 stuffs woo
-
So count off, who's gotten their gifts so far?
Mine arrived today. It sounds broken. <_<
I'm not sure if that's intentional!
-
Got mine today. :3
-
Hope y'all got 'em mailed and that none'a'y'all'll have to get banned
-
I actually had my package wrapped, so I can have the glory of unwrapping it on Christmas.
-
Mines sent out, but havent gotten my gift yet.
-
VIC FUCK YOU I HAVEN'T MAILED MINE YET
WHO KNOWS IF I EVER WILL
FIGHT THE POWERI'm just kidding for Suwako's sake don't ban me
-
I actually had my package wrapped, so I can have the glory of unwrapping it on Christmas.
Some guys saved me the trouble last year and wrapped them for me. It was pretty sweet. I have no idea who it is to this day, since they were so sneaky with their gift labels and accompanying letter.
I still owe you a drawing ;_;

I'm honestly quite frightened by this statement.
So no. :|

Just curious Vic, but when you randomly assigned partners was it possible for two people to get each other, essentially making a closed loop?
I'm already trying to narrow down the list of possible SSes :v
-
Nope, no people exchanging directly with each other. Tracing the paths, there are 3 loops this year: one of 13 people, one of 6 and one of 3.
-
Jeez, why didn't I even bother with looking into CPMC until now.
I am so jealous :V
-
11 days! I really hope this showtime is great, because I do so want to enjoy it!
-
Package has arrived.
Lol at the handwriting :D
-
woo 2 months to go
-
There is a gigantic package in my room.
Unrelated, I have also received my gift!
-
Prez-ant getto.
I thought Christmas would come and I would have to open an imaginary present I knew would have only disappointment inside for a minute there.
-
Christmas is in just a little over a week oh god oh god oh god :ohdear:
-
Uh.. Was I not supposed to read the return address, or what? :V
-
Dunno, did you want to SPOIL THE SUPRISE!?
-
Uh.. Was I not supposed to read the return address, or what? :V
Same thing here... I immediately knew exactly who my partner was. y u do dis
-
WHAT IS LOVE
-
OH BABY DON'T HURT ME
-
DON'T HURT ME
-
NO MORE
-
I'm opening my present tomorrow
because they don't "care" about Christmas in Japan
-
I got a package today that had 6 presents in it!
From my parents...
>=| One week to get here
-
Sounds about right to me
-
Sounds about right to me
Well yeah, but I was more referring to my partner's present not having arrived yet.
To reiterate, >=|
-
My god, I always knew our national post was incompetent, I haven't realized how.
According to what the person said upon calling the customer service hotline (and waiting for 10 minutes possibly more), the package has remained UNsent. as of now, it is 18th here...
It has been, as declared from who is supposed to be a 'supervisor of the office of post storehouse' sitting on the 'to be cleared by customs in Kuala Lumpur' section. I truly apologize for the unlucky person to get my gift. Hopefully, with the... contents when it finally arrives... (likely after xmas ;_____; :ohnoez: )
Meanwhile, mine has arrived... but it is somehow sitting at the office as well.

I have no idea what you're talking about. ;_;

Let's celebrate Christmas early ;_;
I have already measured my package's sizes, weight, density, flexibility, tensile strength, pH, and many other things. Then I broke down and went to a hospital to have it scanned, but I got kicked out of both the MRI and CAT rooms.
Still, I have a good guess at what it is and therefore some of the tension of waiting is gone.
-
AH! I have it! I have my Mystery Gift right beside me now!
I want to open it already! I'm not going to be near my laptop till the evening of Boxing Day so BLAH! ><
-
There was this pretty box with overseas shipping stamps all over it by the doorman's desk today.
I was going out and he didn't say anything, but they usually don't when you're going in, only when you're coming back, so I thought "yay my gift :V".
I just got home and he didn't give me anything nor said anything other than good afternoon ;-;
-
AH! I have it! I have my Mystery Gift right beside me now!
You still own a Game Boy Color?
-
My, my; how very sharp of you Letty. Also, I'm very glad that despite the level of snow you sent my area, the gift wasn't stuck in the middle of nowhere with the rest of the population.
I'll be sure to send a special spell card just for you before I tell everyone what it is exactly. ^^
-
3 days oh my goodness. Can't wait to see what everyone got!
-
I knooooooow~~!
And MJP already knows what mine is because he had to confirm Cirno's elves at the post office didn't break anything along the way :o
-
A package came for me yesterday, but no one was awake/home to sign for it, so I have to pick it up today. Post office opens in a hour.
Edit: Got it, with pics even.
First off is the package, with info crudely edited out.
Here (http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h224/goldblade0/IMG_2370_edit.jpg)
You may notice the corner looks a bit damaged, so heres a closer look.
A Corner (http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h224/goldblade0/IMG_2371_EDIT.jpg). Also notice where its from.
And a pic of the tree with the package under it.

So wait how are we doing this timezone wise? Do we have to wait to open our gifts until christmas in our time zone, or are we all just going to open at the same time?
-
I want to open at midnight my time.
-
I think it was last year you post whenever your 12/25 was at so all throughout the day we can keep getting updates with pictures hoorays!
-
I'm posting the contents of my gift at 5:15 AM local time since that's when I've opened presents for the last 25 Christmas's.
-
You open them on Christmas. It doesn't matter when that is wherever you are!
I'd be the first to open one, but it seems I missed the delivery of my package so it'll have to wait.
-
I won't be in town for Christmas, so I'll have to post when I get back. Hooray!

I'm pretty sure no one cares about the box. It was a box. With a return address that was clearly Edible's. :V
First we get one of the most hilarious (in a good way I promise!) wrapping jobs ever:

I'm 90% sure that this (http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb260/Jan-san144/P1010105.jpg?t=1293266810) came from Vic Viper, but I may be wrong! When I opened it, what did I find? Only three of the things I love most in this world: Marasy's piano, bkub's Chen, and Patchouli's... Patchu-ness. Take a look~ (http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb260/Jan-san144/P1010106.jpg)
Whether my guess is correct or not, thanks you very much, and Merry Christmas!

This looks so awesome!

Damn Pesco, now you got your porn girl as figurine. Keep her clean =|
And what Drake said: Inaba of the Mo(ry as book. JEALOUSY ++

Yay pictures everyone got awesome stuff :V
I'm waiting for my husband to wake up to open mine because he stashed it somewhere and I don't know where!
Virtual Star Hasseigaku will always be my favorite duel song.
Also pretty much this.
-
Got myself a Mythbusters shirt featuring a silhouette of Adam and Jamie's most prominent of facial features and headgear. Yay! No pics since my cell cords are at the apartment.
Of particular interest was that I originally neglected to list my shirt size because I didn't think much of it at the time. I realized after the fact that I was doing a bit of present pigeonholing as well and so I apologize for being lazy. I got a medium, which is EXACTLY the right size, though buying for a general shirt size usually denotes buying a large. Now, there's a grand total of one person on or at all associated with MotK who might know this, and you'd have to be paying at least some attention to know the two of us are associated, so SOMEONE is thoughtful, perceptive, and willing to go a bit further than he/she needed, or a really, really good guesser. Thanks much. Anyway, too wordy, but everything worked out flawlessly.
If you are a nice ladytype person, please marry me. If you are a nice gentleman person, we can still get hitched, but we're swapping nights on the couch.
Hmm...
/me sleuths around for more clues
Hi-larious wrapping job
This person has great taste in present wrapping aesthetics.
Too many goodies.
I voluntarily put a very low spending cap because I'm just barely staying afloat as it is, not to mention how crushingly jealous I am. My entire family wasn't that generous. :ohdear:
EDIT: Case and point, my own stinkin' brother got me the wrong size shirt. High probability that someone's got a connection.

How do I sage myself for both a double post AND a selfpost? Anyway, proving I actually got something and I'll gladly wear it. Also, I'm very glad that my mum is enjoying her digital camera and actually knows how to use it after a little tech talk. I'm shocked, considering she typically needs a 15 week course to get a VCR she's had for 12 years to record a show.

but Xmas is typically a pagan holiday.

So, this is what I got from Cirno Claus who just so happens to live in New Jersey. :3

And a bag of homemade cookies! I'm terrible at this kind of identification, but I think they're graham crackers with a hint of cinnamon. They're delicious!
All in all, I'm pretty sure my Secret Santa is triangles. Thank you!!! MJP is lucky to have you. If my SS is actually MJP, you're a stud for being able to know how to stitch. Happy Holidays everyone!!!

Despite being the strongest, Cirno has a rather uninmpressive Damerau-Levenshtein distance of 5 from Santa. Guess who has a Damerau-Levenshtein distance of 4 from Santa? (No, it's not Satan. His is 2.)

I'm kinda jealous I didn't get involved this year, because holy cow that's some neat stuff. On the other hand, it's probably good that I didn't, because I'm a natural skinflint and not quite able to spare the funds, so whoever got me would have gotten janked =[

I don't get it either ???
Because he's a double jew or something?

I thought I'd show you what I got myself for Xmas. It is a collection of summery/KEY Pixiv hi res glossy paint artbook. It is over 350 pages thick with almost as many arts as I can mention. To be fair, I was gonna send one of these but the weight is too much on my pocket.

FINALLY get to posting in here after taking the pictures and not having the time (being lazy, but that's Komachi's excuse, no?) to link them.
So we'll start!
The package it came in is in pieces I'm afraid, but I can tell you that it came from...
CANADA! ^^
And so, on to what was inside said package...

SURPRISE! Couldn't believe it when I saw them.

Cards. Pretty, pretty cards. I'd have spread them all out, but not everyone wants to see panty shots... Do they? ^^

This was just brilliant! 10 smexy episodes of teasing goodness; complete with tempting cover and... Well... An awesome disk!
Thank you sooooooooooooooooo much! XD
-
Still waiting on Letty, JT, and HakureiSM to get their gifts. If you sent those, get me those tracking numbers!
-
JT and I got ours. I'll make a post about mine soon.
-
What about people anaphylactically allergic to peanuts, and immune both to charisma and charisma-break?
Being allergic to peanuts, I would advise not to eat it. Even if they are immune to Charisma.
@ AF's gift.
HOLY SHIT! Ice in the shape of bullets. You must freeze a sample and show us here.

Opening it I found a catridge of AK 47 bullets and a card.
Maybe that's why it got held up at the border. They thought you were being sent molds for bullet casings. :V

yeah I know, the package was been scanned and they called to ask is anyone in my family connected to a weapons making facility.
like, duh, check my background, I am clean. I told them it was a toy and it is made of plastic. thank god.

Holy shit Pajama Sam :o

Vic, I think it's time to REVEAL OUR GREATEST SECRETZ. Or are we just gonna wait until HSM's gift arrives?
-
You mean in a month? ;;
hurry up and do it
-
I was going to wait until Letty and JT posted their gifts, but I'd rather hang the threat of PROBATION over their heads if they don't post their gifts in the next 3 DAYS!
The list:
Reddyne -> Mr. Bob
JT -> Reddyne
Letty -> JT
N-Forza -> Jana
HakureiSM -> GBZero
Katachi Kazami -> AF
Pesco -> Triangles
AF -> Vic Viper
Mr. Bob -> 7HS
Jana -> Nobu
Nobu -> Edible
GBZero -> Drake
Drake -> Katachi Kazami
Edible -> Arashi
MJP -> N-Forza
Triangles -> Kiro
7HS -> MJP
Arashi -> Letty
Kiro -> Pesco
Vic Viper -> HakureiSM
Y'all were pretty good at guessing who sent, a little too good to be perfectly honest. Hopefully next year will be better (and HakureiSM gets his stuff before then, or I'mma be quite upset at Brazil)!
-
Nobu -> Edible
nobu are dirty liar 8)
-
I want to take the time to apologise to AF for what you went through with that customs thing. I didn't expect them to question you like that.
Leave it to me to send the 'controversial' present through customs. ><
-
No problem Kazami~~n
I appreciate the sentiment, it is a small hiccup but I reckon these things are better left for local gifts, lol weaponmakers in my family.
-
N-Forza -> Jana
I didn't expect you to know what I like so perfectly! Thanks~
-
ohshitohshitohshit
Vicsentmethegift.
Thanks for making me more anxious, bro
Can't wait for February ;-;
Oh, and hope you liked yours, GBZero. You said Alice/patchouli, so when I found this I thought "oh look, both :V"
-
I am terribly sorry that Vic has to wait because my country's mail delivery is five stars in terms of waiting time.
-

Bwahaha, did you actually believe me when I did the A-F feint? :V I figured your Mafia hoodoo would have seen right through that ruse.

Hey, you were the first person I thought of who lived in Miffigan. I didn't bother going through everyone's location, so I might have actually missed somebody. <_<
And my mafia witchcraft only works if you're wrathie.

Patchy was obvious, but the Marasy CD was just a lucky guess, kinda. Although given his popularity here, it was a fairly safe bet. The Chen card was just something I threw in because it was small. :V
Although the fact that the first person that came to mind when it comes to MotKers in Japan was Vic is a little... yeah.
-
That threw me for quite a loop as well tbh, especially since you actually sent two gifts this year
-
I'll admit, what made me think Vic first was the fact that I've never really spoken with you. For someone to know so perfectly what I like, I figured it had to be someone I knew well enough. The fact that it was just a guess is even more amazing, really.

To put it simply, I COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY LOVE IT. Also to Drake, the water car I sent may be several years old and gotten for free, but only maybe. Though the doujin was one of the few ones I have, got it at a local anime con. Hoped you like them actually
-
JT -> Reddyne
A-HA! I wasn't far off in my guess. Thanks for the t-shirt, JT. God knows I already have too many black ones and I still find it quite humorous that the size of the one you got me was more my size than the one my own brother got me.
Things went great this year. Next year, I might consider sending myself in a butler suit as a gift. This will guarantee my employment and housing, plus it'll get me the hell out of Connecticut. The potential for learning how to stop time and throw knives would certainly be a welcome benefit, too!

don't care, I put studs on it and sent it flying down the street

Glad you liked the shirt. I was also gonna send you this in an e-mail, but figured it would make my identity too obvious.
As for my own gift: I got an impressive handmade Yuyuko hat. It smells kinda weird, but it's very nice otherwise. Pictures may be forthcoming.
-
Drake, you trying to impersonate Littleshrimp recently or something?
(http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9278/jam.png)
Oh hello there, MJP
-
i've been talking in lowercase for years shut up
stop spooshin
-

You really should video it and put it online for us to watch
-
Alright, I'm just going to post what I got. Pictures will be posted later when I take them and blah blah blah.
An Airzooka (a gun thing that shoots air and is an awesome disciplinary device for cats on counter tops), some caffeinated chocolate candies, and a Tetris mug, which is awesome and better than my Miku mug. Thanks, Arashi! :3
-
I hate Brazil
-
ilu too
Also hate Lula and the pseudo-commies. It wasn't like this before 2001.
-
I kinda don't remember what I got you anymore.
-
Hey, it's only been 13 days since christmas.
-
Well I know what, but not the appearance :<
