The grinch who stole channukah.
Ugghh I still am waiting haha
This was a nice exchange. So many generous and thoughtful people. Though it does seem a select couple got into it for a ‘hook up’ on something nice but weren’t willing to put thought into their own ‘hook up’ to someone else. If you are going to post a want list of all the best stuff but aren’t willing to reciprocate than that is a failure of the whole concept. Give more and get less. Not want more and give less. This was an exchange not a charity drive. If we need to set up a charity drive than that’s great too.
Hey, I got my package today. Thanks ColeJ! I got a kendama (I was seriously just thinking about buying one), nickel @ (looks awesome with my raw STAX), Alpha Crash (screwed it together and it was mostly smooth, did it again and it vibes and makes kinda weird sounds lol. Still amazing!), PSG Gem, and Throw Monkey.
this seems fun not to throw anyone under the bus, but i hope i can participate next year and take the place of one of the selfish and unappreciative people
I’d love to send some gifts from Hawaii
kudos to everyone that TRULY participated in this. I think the problem is, a decent amount of people on the forum, let alone, trying to participate are younger (not stereotyping because i’m sure there are a handful of kids that are mature enough). Therefor, the value of money and giving isn’t the same as when you have to work a job and save up.
So just wondering, but who has not received their gift yet?
I know Modman10 hasn’t
I havent
^ Well…he did a courtesy to warn people, before the list was finalized. I was paying attention. More people than last time signed up just to get some free stuff.
That really is sad
i still haven’t received my secret santa thing either
Spent my morning at work tallying up all the names here:
Still to receive package (or yet to inform us that they have):

Hope this helps quantify stuff a bit easier.
To knock me off the list, my person received my package, just never posts. I checked the tracking to make sure
No worries, who was the person you sent to? (So I can knock them off as well.)

Nice work Gambit. In that last bunch, out of those who have shipped but no confirmation of package received, I can tell right away that 3 of them likely had their packages received by someone already, who just has not yet posted to confirm it. They are well known traders, with 100% positive feedback.
I believe Yoyo2442, who was not happy with bcmaddog’s gift, posted that he sent someone a gift twice the value stated in the rules (receipt not confirmed yet). The rest…if you look up their feedback, it might indicate what went wrong.
For sure, there are definately people on that list who are well known on these forums and have good feedback, so there’s no reason to assume that they haven’t shipped or anything like that. I’m not trying to imply or insinuate anything, I just added up all the names purely to save anyone having to count them all later.
I’m suprised at how many people haven’t received their packages though. I thought it was only 2 or 3…
Point well taken. I think that information was very helpful to those who might wonder who was supposed to send something out. Nice of you to put that together for them.
Thank you Gambit! For puting in work to make this list as I know it was a good deal of effort and sifting to make it all happen.
Well I know for a fact that mordo613, if he hasn’t shipped yet, can’t ship for probably another week. I was told he is on vacation and cannot ship for at least 5 days…
