I haven't received mine yet either so it's OK.


Correction, according to fedex my package got there on the 20th. But it said "left at door" I hope he got it and it didn't walk away.

Sorry Ktehmok >.< your package is on the way... I went shopping for your gift several times and kept saying "no, the right gift will show up soon" and it never really happened. But I got you something and it should be there very soon.

P.S. you didn't make it easy with your likes/dislikes list... I think it went something like "likes : anything green bay packers, dislikes: anything not green bay packers" or something like that :p

i wussed out and left the reciept for you to return it if you don't like it... it is kinda a wierd gift to give a stranger >.<


edit: btw, I got your package SO, thank you very much... I'm still in the process of contrusting the catapult, but it's been fun so far :p a very creative gift!

That's odd. I've always been a Steelers fan.

Oh well, it's the thought that counts.

Thanks!

I'm still wondering if So got his gift...

so you were my ss:D thanks alot:)
I hope you liked the pj's. Picking out pajama's for a female definitely isn't my strong suit, but since you had it first on your list, I went with it. And being that you were a brand new member who's complete total of posts were in this thread, I couldn't do any research on you :).

I would've sent a card, but being this my first year, I didn't know that was commonplace.

In terms of SS's and failed gifts, Jeff and I will need a few days to organize a list of who got stuff and who didnt. We promise and assure you that we will do our best to rectify each individual situation as they come. Please be patient, that's all we ask. Believe me, its greatly appreciated as both Jeff and I have other obligations/responsibilities like everyone else. Jeff should be getting the midwest list to me sometime this week.

Happy New Year!
Matt

I received my gift today. I'd post a picture but I don't have a working camera anymore.

Thanks dugweb! A new bathrobe is something I really needed. And it's soft as hell!

Guys, I'll be working in this later tonight. It seems there are a few members who have some attitudes about this and I'm not happy about it.

Once again, I thank Mcfly & Skip for going through all the trouble to help us awkward misfits truly get into the spirit. Anyone who did not send a gift, or simply forgot, please rectify the situation. If you can't respect another generous soul on Christmas, what are you?

Between Thanksgiving (when assignments were handed down) and Xmas (when gifts were due) I dealt with the passing of my grandfather *and* the theft of my car, and still found time to fulfill my commitment. I also shipped USPS Priority w/DC as requested, whereas there's still no tracking info available for my gift AFAIK.

Secret Santa participants should be required to show Heatware trading references next year, and should get negative feedback if they don't follow through, just like any other forum-based transaction. Just my $0.02 as someone who is still waiting 43 days after the initial pairings / 17 days after Christmas. :( I know most people got theirs, but admittedly I'm not left with a very good impression after my first go-round in ATOT SS.

BTW, I join Coquito in thanking Skip and Marty for their efforts.

The problem is that many people, such as myself, do not have any Heatware references, so it shouldn't be mandatory (but I do have ebay). I have never bought or traded anything on forums, but I do have an account. However, I think it is a good idea that people who did or did not receive anything should leave appropriate feedback on their SS's Heatware.
