**** OcUK Secret Santa 2016 - Signup & Discussion Thread ****

[cainer]

Seems fewer people this year. Do we need to spam?

i sent a trust msg to everyone who signed up last year and the year before,
i think weve got everyone that wants to play

 

[cainer]

Also - Unsticky it - it's better floating around the forum than being stickedy (sp?)

did you not notice that it had been un-sticky'd before you posted that?

 

[cainer]

WHAT?!?! You mean I can't send Ahleckz a butt plug again?

for a small donation to cainers Xmas beer fund i can make that happen

 

[cainer]

Not everyone frequents GD. Maybe mention it around the forum

ive put a link to this thread on the gaming, gfx & sport forums
i expect a Don to delete them for being off topic

 

[cainer]

head up - sign up closes tonight, names will be drawn around midnight

 

[cainer]

Nitefly has signed up so were upto 38 players,
ive set up the draw restrictions so no one will be buying a gift for anyone they've bought for in previous years,

the "Draw Names" button is ready to be pressed, but its not too late for any last minute stragglers to join up

 

[cainer]

executive descision has been made...
Entry is now closed, im drawing the names now

gl all

 

[cainer]

dont forget you guys can add some stuff to your wish list on Elfster,
it might help your stalker get a better idea of something you'd like

 

[cainer]

any questions/problems then shoot me a trust msg,

 

[cainer]

i was away last week so i need to get my stalk on

 

[cainer]

Stuff has been ordered Hopefully I have got enough gifts...dont want my gifts to look cheap

i got a Porsche GT3 RS for my victim, id hate to think people were skimping out and spending less than £80k :/

 

[cainer]

got most of my gifts ready

 

[cainer]

Got my gifts sorted and wrapped just need to post them off next week

Slightly worried though as I haven't heard a thing from my SS, I'm sure it will be fine as there is a while to go yet but I'm part of 2 SS this year and neither one has made any contact.

have you sent questions on Elfster that have gone unanswered?

 

[cainer]

Heads up, deadline for posting is a week today (Dec 6th)

 

[cainer]

How strict are you with this Cainer as ive just got a message from someone i've bought something off (a seller via Amazon) that due to a family bereavement he can't post my item until next week! It was the main part of the gift too tbh which I can't seem to find anywhere else!

Any chance i'll get a smacked bottom if its posted no later than the end of next week?

Similar for me, I ordered something on the 21st Nov for my victim and I am yet to get a confirmation of postage or anything from the sellers site. I have chased them up today, so it might not be a massive problem, but it is the main part of the present and I am worried that I might miss the cut off!

Maccy you have a trust msg

 

[cainer]

So is it going to be a massive issue or not if we dont meet the deadline of next Tues?

Surely as long as we get it to our recipient before Christmas day all will be well in the world.

yeah just send it off when you can mate,
although please keep a record of purchase receipts / postage tracking etc.... thats just a t&c's reminder for everyone, not just aimed at you

 

[cainer]

Having something delivered tomorrow; then have to collect everything together, should be posted over the weekend or Monday.

6th December (Tuesday) feels like an odd last day to post; would the end of the week not being better?

Anyway; looking forward to Christmas favourite time of the year.

it would have been the saturday before if you wanted the end of the week as postage deadline, consider it getting a few days extra grace

 

[cainer]
