Have a few ideas for my person. Will likely buy and send ASAP.

I'll admit, reading the random questions and answers section on the exchange is almost as entertaining as the GB.

Some of that is gold I'll tell ya.

It's been quieter this year than usual.

You got that right. No questions sent my way!

I would suggest that only people that have X amount of posts on texags and at least 30% of those on the GB could join. With the statistics in our profile this should be easy.

Why??

Because it's not fun or easy to buy for someone who rarely posts, even less on GB, and has an even quieter wish list.

This is my peace.

I like it when the lurkers and semi-lurkers join in. Can be a little tougher to search through old posts for bad ideas, but it gets them involved in the community.

I've just got to finish wrapping and write my traditional rambling, semi-comprehensible note that includes a stunningly awful haiku, then ship it off.

We've discussed this in the past but always ultimately decided that it's better to include people than not.

I agree. And based on the last 2 years, I have gotten something from people that I really have never interacted with very much, but they gave stuff that was a "wow" type thing.

Maybe they did some semi-stocking, who knows?

That being said, I stocked my recipient "CIA level" this year. Didn't really influence my gift, but made the "Santa Card" fun. I hope!

Why would participants take suggestions from non participants?

I did not stock my recipient at all this year. But they will still be getting a good gift that I know they will want and some items that will give them a laugh.

Whose got time to bother to calculate that? What would be the time frame? And are you participating?

I'm finally back home after being gone for what seems like forever. Let the stocking begin tomorrow!

Don't forget to throw in those photos you took from the bushes when they left the blinds open...

That will teach you not to close your blinds. And may I add..bravo!

Everything is wrapped and packed, ready to ship tomorrow. I think I've outdone myself in terms of incomprehensibility of my letter, including some truly questionable haikus.

Sending any WCW trading cards this year?

Nope, didn't do any eBay hunting and my target doesn't have the overt love of wrestling that you do.

I did import at least one item from Europe, though. I am supremely confident that it will come as a complete surprise.

Euro porn with really small censored areas?

To the person I drew, I'm treating you like family. And by that I mean I'm waiting until the last possible minute.

Ask if I'll be home before you ship anything.

You can also send messages to your Santa via Elfster.

I have made my purchases and will ship tomorrow. Hopefully my recipient has a private place to open the gift.

Eh, I'll be OK. My wife has met enough TexAgs people, mostly employees but some subscribers too, to know to expect crazy.

Because I have three different posters AND posters in the past paired with people in this exact situation. I was just trying to speak out for those in this situation to get a consensus for future secret Santa's. Basically opening the door for communication. I can see why you'd get your panties in a wad over my opinion though.
