Yep, it's that time again. Gather round, kiddies, and
Hooray! The deadline to sign up is the 25th of November. To sign up, simply fill out the form at the bottom of this post with your own information, post it in this thread, and then PM me your address. You need to send a PM even if you think I already have your address (unless you're moop, of course). It makes it a lot easier for me to keep track of everything, and the odds of me actually finding an address sent to me a year ago are slim to none. Victims will be assigned soon after the sign-up deadline passes, and I'm going to say the deadline for sending gifts should be the 10th of December, given that some will have to be sent internationally. There's some wiggle room on the deadline, but be sure to let your victim know if his/her gift will be late (you'll receive the sign-in info for the Secret Santa account when one of Santa's helpers PMs you with your victim's name and address, and you can post in this thread under that username to ask questions, etc.). Please don't participate if you think you might not be able to follow through. Sometimes things beyond your control can come up, which is perfectly understandable, but if you're going to flake, for the love of Pete, let us know as far in advance as you can, okay? Okay. If you've participated in the past, we will need to know the names of your previous victims to keep you from being paired up with them again. If you don't remember who they were (this is the fifth year we're doing this, after all), you can find last year's thread here. It should have your victims from the first three years in your initial post, and buried somewhere in the thread will be the name of the person you had last year. Ignore the fact that this post is almost identical to my initial post in that thread, please. Pretend I was witty and original this year.  ALSO: Santa may be needing a substitute helper to deal with handing out victims, since one of his evil little elves was injured in a freak reindeer mauling. She was trying to get them to pull her pirate ship or something...we're not quite sure. She'll be okay, but I suspect she might need someone to take her place this year. Any volunteers? I think that's everything! PM me if you have any questions/concerns/chocolate/praise that can't go in the thread. So... Name: Candice Previous Victim(s): Ashbless, Cheesemoose, Elphaba, and gothictheysay Likes/Dislikes: The past few years I've just asked for something to amuse me, and it has yet to fail me. I hate anything banana or cherry flavoured, should Santa feel like sending me food. Oh, and I'm a vegetarian, though I don't know why you'd send me meat. Never hurts to be sure, though. My favourite animals are deer, my favourite colour is green, and I harbour fantasies about moving to some remote location to become a beekeeper/hermit. -------------------- I love you in a way that is mystical and eternal and illegal in 20 states.

Name: LoLo
Previous Victim(s): EvilSpoon, Snoo, Daria Likes: I love things that are odd and will make you laugh. I'm not adverse to toys that poop candy or things that are grossly funny in general. I love socks and I always wear odd ones that never match. I love design and typography. I think Harley Quinn from batman is fabulous. I also am obsessed with eyes, though I just got rid of a lot of my eye stuff. By no means does the person who draws my name have to get me the specific things listed, it's just a guide. I like to be surprised, so I wouldn't be disappointed with something that I have no idea about. Dislikes: Pink, cooked vegetables, tomatoes, overly girly crap. --------------------  Being Pimped By Aries Since 2003 |

Name: Ashbless
Previous Victims: Mata, Smiler, Daria, and Speaker Likes: Just about any strange little gizmo if I can get it back from the cats, hot and cold beverages and words. Dislikes: Pink, poop jokes, friends who are always a bit short until payday so that you wind up paying for whatever outing possibly for months. Not bitter. (grin) I live in the far away land of Canada so keep that in mind if you chose something perishable. I've been delighted with the things that Santa has brought so far.

 'Trouble Down Pit' now online! Group: Admin Posts: 10,139 Joined: 22-February 03 From: Southern UK Member No.: 1 Gender: Male |
Name: Mata
Previous Victim(s): Hobbes, CheeseMoose, Ryn, and EvilSpoon Likes/Dislikes: Well designed objects or 'urban toys', books of pictures, illustration thing generally, savoury foods, spicy foods, arty stuff, steampunk, cyberpunk, punk, gothy things, quirky things... That should do. I don't really have many dislikes in the world. I'm a happy chap. As an update from last year, I got some of these http://www.colorblanks.com/toys/ which are very cool... And then I got lots of work and moved house. I started working on them recently but they're nowhere near finished yet and once again those pesky students have made lots of paper for me to grade, so my creative things have to be put aside until that is all done, BUT they are awesome and I've got some fun plans for them

I'll hop on, but you'll have to wait for me to put any useful information in this post. >.>
Name: Barry Previous Victim(s): None. Bwa ha ha ha! Likes: Things which keep my fingers busy rather than dismantling any more of my stuff, things that go bang or fizzle, the ridiculous. Dislikes: Foods which are all obvious about having vitamins and minerals in them. Not that I'm expecting to be sent leafy greens or anything, I just felt like chuntering on about mistrust of anything you wouldn't consider wrapping in pastry.

I have sent out PMs to all of the people on my list and I got one from moop so I'm assuming his list is done. Everyone should have their victim then?
