You fuckers thought I forgot about this didn't you?

Well I did but I'm still committed to pulling it off.

The Rules

You must be GiP regular to play.
But N4I I'm a lurker! Send me some sort of proof of service via PM and I'll throw your name in the hat. Also you should post more.
What quantifies as a regular? I'll make a judgement call on a case by case basis.
Let's shoot for about $20.
Can I spend more? If you want.
Can I spend less? That'd be pretty lovely and you run the risk of something not nice happening to your account.
Can I send you bareback bear porn? The only way I'll be in play is if we have an odd number of people sign up. So maybe.
By signing up you are agreeing to participate. There is nothing shittier that going in on a Secret Santa and not getting anything. If your person hasn't received their gift by the drop dead date below you're getting banned.
You must have PM's. I'm not messing around with no send me your info to this dummy email account specially set up for this. Sorry.

Important Dates

11/17/2014: Sign ups open. PM me your name and address and perhaps some ideas and I'll add you to the list
11/30/2014: Sign ups close. This is the also the last date you can back out.
12/1/2014: I'll start matching people and sending out info.
1/16/2014: Drop dead date. If your giftee hasn't received anything by this date you're getting banned.

So yeah it's pretty straight forward. PM me your name and address and I'll match you with someone. Spend about $20 on a gift to send to them and you get one in return. Don't be an rear end -- it's Christmas.

Special note for foreign GiPPers:
I will try to match for country to avoid shipping issues. If you're an :911:

let me know if you're interested in someone with an out of country address. This does not apply to APO or FPO addresses.

Questions
Post them in the thread. I'll add to this section as they come up.

Ok everyone who PM'd me has been entered into my magical spreadsheet of goodness.

Several of you didn't provide names which is fine but make sure that doesn't cause any issues with delivery

Odd numbers shouldn't matter. Just take the list of people and have each send to the next person on the list. Last person obviously then sends to the first.

gently caress YOU, SCOTT YOU AREN'T MY REAL DAD!

(I honestly hadn't thought to do that, this is my first rodeo yo.)

Never got a name. I sent another PM a few days ago but never heard back. I guess this means I post dick pics in all of the threads on the 25th.

Check your PM's :getin:

Sorry about not getting back to you quicker. I have written about 100 pages of text in the last few weeks and am only about halfway through what I need to do by the end of the semester including finishing my capstone project.

gently caress grad school forever :suicide:

Welp.

Today GiP's secret Santa taught this guy that you can mail order whole preserved fetal pigs in the continental 48, and get them shipped anonymously to you under the name "Proud American Patriot."

My wife was really confused since it had "9/11 pig pls" hand written on the side of the box, and the (admittedly cute) fetal pig was just chilling in a bag with a loving wonder bread twisty keeping the stank in'ish.

10/10 for laughs and the story to tell, 1/10 on actual gift. I hope my Gipper likes their gift, it was hand written while high and from my heart. Even if it gets a little violent and sexual towards the beginning, middle, end, and a lot in the margins.
