[jmolayal]

In! - Last year was my first time and it was a blast. Both to send gifts and to get them. Thanks for doing this again guys!

 

[MartyMcFly3]

Already at 12 official signups. Good start!

 

[shortylickens]

It was smart to begin this November 1st.
Other years its been such a hassle.

 

[Sho'Nuff]

Count me in. This year I vow to be a better SS than I have been. Not that I slacked before, but my SS last year went out of his/her way to give me something very nice. I have good ideas this year too!

 

[datalink7]

I'm in. Been doing it for many years and it's always a good time

 

[Crono]

Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh

Sorry, had to.

 

[bbhaag]

Did it last year for the first time and had some fun with it. Count me in again for this year.

 

[rudeguy]

Only Secret Santa I partake in.

In for another year. Hope I get shorty!

This made me curious, so I did a search of our past year threads:

2006: OP was created on 11/01/06
2007: OP was created on 10/30/07
2008: OP was created on 11/04/08
2009: OP was created on 11/05/09
2010: OP was created on 11/03/10
2011: OP was created on 11/01/11
2012: OP was created on 11/03/12
2013: OP was created on 11/01/13

Gave up going back past 2005. Don't really see where the hassle was.

 

[Darkstar757]

[DisturbedRamm]

I think there was a year where our pairings were a bit late. Not a hassle in the least

Now give me shorty!

 

[Broheim]

I'm in, I'll sign up tomorrow though. I'm just too damn tired from driving all day and overeating at my grandparents...

 

[SKORPI0]

Would be nice is someone didn't pass on my 2011 "gifts" to their recipient a year later. That didn't make me happy. :\

 

[shortylickens]

That is SO fucked up. I guess that means you shipped early and he shipped late?

Wow, really? A re-gifter? Not cool.

No my 2011 SS gift, was given out to their 2012 SS recipient. :\
Not even an expensive item, probably didn't have a use for it at all. Oh well.

Oh, thats traditional re-gifting. Nothing you can do about it.

I just hope it wasn't the sheep :awe:

 

[UglyCasanova]

So what kind of stuff gets given? Are these gag gifts or real ones? It says a starting point of $20, do many people go over and how much?

Just curious, this seems interesting.
