iForge posted:Spreadsheeting has been updated. A big thank you to everyone who participated this year! I think it went really well! No deadbeats this year, but we have a few santees that didn't post pictures. If you don't post soon, you may be disqualified for next year's AISS. Offenders have been emailed. Thanks for playing! Maybe this year I'll remember I do it every year and put aside things throughout the year instead of throwing it together last minute like I always do.

NitroSpazzz posted:Thanks for organizing and running this, always something I look forward to. Eh, I did that this year but apart from a couple of small things I ended up getting new stuff anyway to fit slothrops interests. Maybe it'll work out next year...

Finally got around to opening up the gift from my Santa! Life has a way of throwing curveballs, right after the holidays! A box arrived, it rattled a bit when you shook it. No buzzing though.  I have never used VR glasses for phones before, but I'll see what kind of apps there are for my S5. The door has a few burn marks on the inside... Mad sick 3D?!  This sweet little drone thing! Two of the blades were reversed, so it only danced around on the ground at first. After switching them around, I learned how had I am at flying RC things. Is there an equivalent for target fixation through RC controls?  CANDY! A bitchin hog to put beside my other biek models. Might have to fire up an XP build for Fallout 3!  Shiny and chrome. This works really well, I was needing a small took kit to put in the bike trailer that wont see super hard use!  Thanks Santa! Although I'm not sure you are, although I have an idea.

So I got a letter from NZ.... Echotic has sent more things.....and they are awesome.  Missing the fridge magnet because it's already on the fridge. Dude, very thoughtful and super cool that there's local stuff included. The key ring is making it's way most of the way back around the world to Hawaii tomorrow (seeya suckas, it's too cold in the northeast right now). Thanks again. You are a great santa.

Did we have any dead beats? I'll volunteer to make something for any gift-less goons.

And I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you for stepping up and playing the Ur-Santa this year. We've got one hell of a community here and it's things like AISS that help it continue to not suck. So thanks

Now when your friends are jealous for you having Japanese on the side of your car, you can look down at them with smug derision as you say, "Actually, it's Chinese."

You should be used to a SAAB owner showing up a month late and a post short, right?  keykey really came through for me this year! First of all, his :iamafag: cover letter:   .. and the back Thanks for the 5er, brah (hope your wart gets better)!:  LOOK AT ALL OF THIS poo poo!  Headlamp, eye protection, ear protection- all necessary when dealing with a 3.0t! Oh, and the cam lock tool- which I pray to god I will never use (but will probably horde for the rest of my life just in case I get crazier).  THAT'S NOT ALL! An awesome (and somewhat hard to find) copy of the Saab-Scania book, which goes through the delights of both air and land- at least within the last 20 years, and is certainly a coffee table book for SAAB owners who own those!  Ooh! Yummy Gummies!  Well, at least gummy..  The sludge has given me superpowers, though- I can actually walk through the mess of my home and not give a poo poo for the entire weekend- I need laundry before I need to clean, after all! Thanks for the SAABtastic post-Christmas Christmas, keykey- It gave me the first smile that I've had in weeks.

You're welcome, glad you liked it and could bring a little Christmas cheer in difficult times. As soon as your name came in my inbox, I already knew what Saab swag you were getting.

Those window rollers are amazingly bad. How long did they slowly complain until sharkfinning?  Not sure if those gummies were a whole before you mailed them, but they didn't survive.Thanks again for the goodies!
