Okay, so tao , v9733xa , @crazytrain116 - how do y'all feel about the 4 of us doing the random-generator thing, posting our gift guides and shipping info in a VIP board thread (so our names and addresses aren't public knowledge for the whole internet) and just aiming to get things shipped before Christmas since we're starting so late this year? Yes that would be great. Though, if I may be transparent, I have been the gift-giver for both you and Evan for the past two years. That was a lot of fun and you gave great ideas. But I would like the chance, if it's not too forward to ask, to have tao this time. |

And to be fair, I’ve given gifts to v9733xa the first year and have received gifts from Corvus, just so there’s no overlap. |

Okay, and I gave to Evan last year and Tao the year before SOOOO... Not so Secret Santa? Corvus -> v9733xa -> tao -> @crazytrain116 -> Corvus? I realize Crazytrain gifted me back in 2018 but I don't think we can avoid at least one double dip this year. I'm open to any other suggestions! |

And who’s on first, what’s on second….

Ha, I hated to blow the lid off the secrecy, but with only 4 people this was bound to happen. I am okay with it and hope others don't mind just knowing who's the gift-giver ahead of time.

So I gave to Crazytrain last year - if he's okay with a double dip from ol' Corvus that's fine by me, but I want to make sure he has a chance to receive from someone else if he wants it! |

Alright, flip it - V to me, me to Train, Train to you and you to V. this has my support! Just a thought, but may we stress that because we’re in December now, the “arrive by Christmas” stipulation can be relaxed, because even though I know we all live in the US still won’t guarantee everything will arrive on time. |

Alrighty then! With all that settled, let's get crackin'! Send the relevant info to your Not-So-Secret-Santa:
Name
Address
Gift Guides!
Shirt Size
Hobbies
TV Shows/Films
Fav bands
Any useful links (last.fm, amazon wishlist, letterboxd, discog, etc)
Any notes or do's & don't's (e.g "prefer no clothing" or "I can't eat gluten" or "I'm working on my board game collection!")

I agree on the relaxed time frame. I have not even given thought to the Secret Santa the past couple weeks with all that I've had going on. I'm still in but definitely will need more time to get shit together. |
