Secret Santa: Friendly Reminders of DOOM

Just popping in to remind everyone that:

1. Secret Santa gift-delivery starts on Saturday, and stretches until the end of the following weekend. Which gives you a little under two weeks to finish your gift, so if you've been putting it off, now's the time to pick up the pace.
2. If you won't be able to fulfill your gifting obligations, remember to SEND ME A PM! There are no hard feelings if you have to bow out due to scheduling conflicts or surprise emergencies, but I do need to know in advance so I can arrange a backup gift for your giftee. Nobody's PMed me yet about this, and I hope that's a good sign. :)
3. If you're not going to be available to deliver within the gifting period (due to vacation or whatnot), send me your gift and I'll make sure it's delivered to the appropriate party.
4. Similarly, if your gift requires a large upload and you have no way to host it, I can offer hosting services.
5. For those sending physical gifts, you should mail them in advance (today, if you can) to help them get to their destination vaguely on time. It's also advisable to write your screen name somewhere on or in the package so they don't feel obligated to hand your custom porcelain Grizz doll to the bomb squad.

Good luck, and may the spirit of getting be with you all.

i will deliver my gift but i may be towards the end of the two weeks. sadly working in retail at this point of the years leaves little time for other things

Have you considered quitting your retail job and starting a new career as a travelling acrobat?

my victim will be getting his or hers in the mail via the postal service but it wind up there toward the end of next week.  it will still be in the  prescribed time frame though I think.

And college football rivalries aside, I think my victim will like the gift.

Today's the first day, right?  Is there going to be a special thread or is it going to be tacked onto the signup thread?

Uncle Yuan

I'm ~80% done and will be getting it finished up in the next day or so.

I'm ready for mine,   it was a tough one to come up with an idea.  So I'll post when the actual "gift thread" is up.

Sorry folks, I forgot to post the thread before I went out today. I'll get it posted up when I get back with the dogs.

Patience, my pretties... patience. ;)
