CPSS4: Live Free or Secret Hard! (OPEN THEM NOW!)

[Rin Kagamine]

Hey y'all, guess what!  I'm really late so all the deadlines are pushed back a week!

Welcome back everyone!  For those who were not around for the festivities last year (or the year before (or the year before)), 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!

Want to participate?  PM me (Rin Kagamine) the following information with the subject "CPSS IN!" by 11/19/2012:
Full name:
Address:
Email:
Are you willing to ship international? Yes/No (US/Canada residents only)
Willing to receive NSFW presents? Yes/No/Please
*Phone number(only needed if sending international)
**(If you ship internationally then you will need to give your phone number. The US Post Office has new requirements for international shipping and one of them is that a phone number is required. Feel free to make one up but don?t cry to me when your package doesn?t arrive/isn?t delivered.)
(Optional) T-shirt size
(Optional) 5 things you like (if you're afraid no one knows what you like (NO GUARANTEE you'll get anything from that list))

I stole it from sows shut up

Monday, November 19th is the deadline to sign-up.  Partners will be assigned on Tuesday the 20th so no late sign-ups!

Other important dates to note (Dates are for US Eastern Standard Time, i.e. GMT-5.  Adjust for your country accordingly):
11/19/2012 - Deadline to sign up
11/20/2012 - Partners assigned
12/14/2012 - Last date to ship USPS First Class mail
12/17/2012 - Last date to ship all packages (Slight grace period offered for "something came up")
12/25/2012 - Open your gift and post what you got
USPS has been shipping things pretty quickly these past few years, so shipping dates have been relaxed a little.  If you're shipping internationally please don't procrastinate though.

Rules:
1. Tracking is required!
2. When you ship your package, PM me (Rin Kagamine) with the topic "Package shipped" and provide the tracking number.
3. If sending USPS international then the customs number is the tracking number
4. If you don't send a present you will be BANNED!

FAQ:
Q: I want to send someone food!  Can I send food?
A: Probably.  You MUST check with the customs laws surrounding shipment of foodstuffs for both your home country and the destination country before shipping.  Your package is likely to be destroyed rather than returned, so be sure and check.

[Rin Kagamine]

First thread is here, second thread is here, and last year's thread is here.

I sure am glad there's a new Die Hard coming out soon so I have a thread title for next year :getdown:

Also, I'm disappointed with the  current board name because now my acronym is horribly antiquated D:

[DX7.EP]

Yay, about time we did this again!

Might be joining, though considering my existing plans for TF2 and MC servers' Christmas events that is also uncertain.

Spoiler:

Also not sending synths this time :V

[HakureiSM]

Fucking finalllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

e: I might have adress issues this time, I may or may not be about to move, we'll see. Will keep posted.

[pineyappled]

There goes the money I've been saving.

;_;

[Rin Kagamine]

Seriously, everyone should do this; we all have a blast every year.  It's pretty much the only time a package from a stranger on the internet shows up at your house and it's OK!

[Tengukami]

In.

Also, stickied.

[theshirn]

Spoiler:

Also not sending synths this time :V

Still got that. :V

Will think about this again for this year.  Not sure.

[Rin Kagamine]

In.

Also, stickied.

Rad! But I usually leave it I stickied for a while since I think it gets more views like that.

[Tengukami]

That makes sense. Why, we even have a sticky demonstrating this very point.

[Rin Kagamine]

Self-fulfilling prophecy

[Edible]

In it to win it!

HEY VIC
HEY VIC
WHY ISN'T YOUR NAME ON THE PARTICIPANTS LIST YET

[Drake]

>Gee Nobu, what's Vic doing with CPSS?
>I dunno, I'll ask him!
>CPSS thread two days later

HMMMMM

[HakureiSM]

HMMMMM

What's funny too is I came in here looking for Vic to PM him about it right after he made the thread
Was talking to ventopasu about it earlier so

[Rin Kagamine]

>Gee Nobu, what's Vic doing with CPSS?
>I dunno, I'll ask him!
>CPSS thread two days later

HMMMMM

Nobu never talked to me about it actually, only triangles and Mr Bob.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

I see it's that time of year again!

And for the 3rd year in a row, I'm so in!

Looking forward to all the gifts, and surprises, that this year shall bring. XD

[Werepuppy]

This could be fun. ~

Kanjou has been talking through his past few years taking part in these secret santas here, so since this will be our first Christmas together, why not. I'll take part too ^^

[DX7.EP]

Still got that. :V

Hehehe. :V

I'm in again!

Spoiler:

there goes whatever money I was trying to save for Magfest

[The ⑨th Zentillion]

Sure, I'll participate again! ...Hopefully my recipient this time won't get banned like last year's (thankfully, they still got my gift anyway). :V

[Werepuppy]

Just submitted my entry.

Looking forward to this ^w^

[Reddyne]

Got kicked from temp job number 6 and I'm still in it! To all participants, please try to avoid being vague in order to not piss off your Santa buddy.

[Hello Purvis]

Oh what the hell, I'll give it a shot. Hopefully I'll not be too broke.

Do we get a broke clause?

[Jana]

I'm usually pretty broke, but I've managed to give good gifts (and even mailed one internationally). I think you'll be okay!

Of course, I'm putting myself in this year as well~

[♛ Apher-Forte]

I am in. expect great gifts this year since the time is after AFA Singapore.

[Pesco]

Can I just be an unconfirmed entry for now? Gotta work out a few things first and then I'll confirm my entry.

[Mr_Bob]

>Gee Nobu, what's Vic doing with CPSS?
>I dunno, I'll ask him!
>CPSS thread two days later

Nobu never talked to me about it actually, only triangles and Mr Bob.

Reference. Also, triangles has been a good girl this year; what will Cirno Santa get her?

[Menorah Jams, Pham]

If we're going by Die Hard titles, shouldn't this be A Good Day to Santa Hard?

[Rin Kagamine]

If we're going by Die Hard titles, shouldn't this be A Good Day to Santa Hard?

No, that's the 5th movie that's not out yet (though I saw them filming it in Budapest this summer)

"Yippee-ki-yay motherbaka!"

[[Y]oukai [J]esus]

Confirming so hard
Won't make the same mistake as last year.

Even if Dormio isn't in here I still expect a present for all I sent him.
You too Amra.

Will be sending out extra presents to those whose addresses I have who are not my partners, ie Dorakyura.
