Slightly earlier than normal, but I didn't want to forget...

...as if I could forget the most magical time of year - the GB Secret Santa Gift Exchange! Sign up at the link below:

https://www.elfster.com/gift-exchanges/b7432171-d921-473e-8440-d11d75571589/?join=yjc0

Rules from previous years still apply (and are still shamelessly stolen from the previous year's thread):

I hope all of you past participants will join up again. If you've never done this with us, you should. It's a lot of fun, and your fellow GBers have, perhaps surprisingly, proven to be very generous and thoughtful gift-givers over the years. You can review last year's thread HERE if you're curious how it goes.

The basics will be the same as always:

The gift limit is $50. Sign-up deadline is November 18, in time for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Not a lot of time to sign up, but we're apparently in a supply chain crisis, so want to provide some time. Names will be drawn the next day. Gifts are to be delivered by December 19, hopefully before people start to travel, so ship in plenty of time! If necessary, we can adjust as issues come up.

Some tips and a few changes:

- We want everyone to feel included and welcome, however after a small number of "flakes" we need to make sure all participants are really in it. To that end, your Elfster name must identify with your TexAgs handle and you must verify your identity here on this thread as well. You need to have a posting history, too, so we know who you are and all that.

- Sign up with a valid email address that you'll check on occasion. I may need to get in touch.

- That said, if you're a lurker and want to join in, reach out and we'll talk.

- Anyone impersonating another poster (yes, this has happened) will be banned.

- Fill out your wish list! You can post a link to almost any site and it will get added to the list. The wish list isn't just good for shopping, but for giving your Santa an idea of the types of stuff you like.

- Use the anonymous interface to talk to your selectee, and to other GBers. Some people in the past have entertained us by asking zany questions over the course of the exchange.

- If you don't normally, post on the GB. Say hello in the Good Morning thread. Offer an opinion on the suitability of "toucan" as the name for your child. Getting to know everyone will help you have a great exchange.

- When you get your gift, post pics in this thread and tell us about it.

- Be excellent to each other. Be thoughtful in your gift selection. Don't flake or be a jerk. If you have a problem or need to back out or will be delayed in shipping or whatever, just tell me and I'll handle it. Be nice.

If you have any questions or need any help, give me a shout by PM, Elfster, or via semaphore. No more ravens, though - things **** all over the place and never leave.

Ah, yes. I think it's defined as just the hint of a nipple.

Do we have to use our real names?
Claude!
How long do you want to ignore this user?
No, but you have to use a real address (duh) and we have to be able to connect your name on Elfster with your TexAgs name. So you can sign up as Private PoopyPants; just know that you'll be getting a package addressed to that name.

Great. Just didn't want anyone to know my real name is Jon Bon Jovi.

Also, it's helpful to know a person's real name if they live outside of the country. The mail institution is 100% going to ask for customs.
