    I'll be the Easter Bunny if the last person doesn't get theirs.

    Sorry to my Santee I will have your gift for you sent asap but I just haven't got wii points and haven't found any wii points at all lately, but what i'll do is buy some online and send you your gift asap.

    Sorry again.

  • AbsoluteZeroAbsoluteZero Registered User regular
    Looks like Lothars is our very first Virtual Console Deadbeat Santa. If we do this again next year, he can look forward to not participating.

    urahonky, check your PM if you are still interested in easter bunnying.

    If urahonky can't do it I'd be willing to volunteer to send something to Figgy.

    I promise that I will be gifting something to Figgy Asap like I said in the PM to you Absolute.

    I would never be deadbeat, the main issue I have is finding Wii Points locally but I never meant to do this and that's fine if next year I am excluded because I have missed the deadline.

    I understand we can't have someone going past the deadline and not gifting someone. I still will be gifting something to Figgy and If possible will be taking part when I am allowed to again.

  • urahonkyurahonky Registered User regular
    Added'd.

  • FiggyFiggy Registered User regular
    Woohoo! Urahonky, you rock!

    I was gifted Paper Mario and Kirby's Dream Land.

    Wicked wicked wicked. I've played the GCN and Wii Paper Mario, but never the original for any great length. I look forward to a proper play through. Kirby has always been an interest of mine, but I skipped it back in the day. I was intrigued by the short demo on Smash Bros Brawl, so this is perfect!

    Many thanks, urahonky. You rule!

    Now.. if only the damn shop channel would stop giving me error codes and let me redeem these games!

    Haha glad you like them Fig. I saw you talking about the N64 version of Paper Mario (by far my favorite of the 3) so I thought that would be a nice choice. And you can't go wrong with Kirby's Dream Land 3 :)

  • FiggyFiggy Registered User regular
    Is anyone else's shop channel not working?

    I am getting "Internal Server Error"

    "The server encountered an internal error .. contact so and so..."

    I got something similar when I was trying to grab my presents from mxmarks. Maybe it's just busy? Do you get an error code?

    It first gives me a long-winded error message, with something about contacting an email address (it's not a nintendo one)

    Then, it will go to an error code. I looked up the code and it says it is a firewall issue, but my Wii is set to DMZ and I have no troubles otherwise with the net (tried the browser just now). Might be a burp for now. I'll try later.

    I'll only do it here at PA because this place has the best people and I'd like to reward that. :) But you're very welcome!

  • FiggyFiggy Registered User regular
    I tried again and it worked! I just noticed it was Kirby's Dream Land 3 too.. score!

    I wrote short comments in the "reply" section as I received the gifts, but I don't have the patience to type anything of substance with my wii remote, so I'll put it here:

    Thanks again urahonky!!

  • urahonkyurahonky Registered User regular
    Just wanted to point out that Lothars is good people. He's going to be sending me a game as soon as I add him :)

  • redfield85redfield85 Registered User regular
    Figured I would ask in here.

    Where are all the secret santa threads for this year?

  • SirUltimosSirUltimos Don't talk, Rusty. Just paint. Registered User regular
    I was wondering the same thing. I'm able to participate this year and was hoping I could.

  • redfield85redfield85 Registered User regular
    Not to keep bringing this up, but why is no one else asking about this? No one wants to be awesome this year?

    I'm awesome every year!

    I wouldn't mind doing this again. Make a new thread redfield.

    If Blanka receives any nerfs in 2013, and I mean any, I will eat a box of cocks and change characters forever.

    I'm also eager for Wiiware/VC Secret Santa. Someone make a thread.

    You mean you want me to organize all of this? I don't think there is enough time in my life for me to set this up properly. I was looking for one of the vets of secret santa to get this moving.

  • SirUltimosSirUltimos Don't talk, Rusty. Just paint. Registered User regular
    I may be willing to set up the VC Secret Santa this year if no one else is. Not a for sure promise, just if no one else wants to.

  • AbsoluteZeroAbsoluteZero Registered User regular
    I'd like to run VC Secret Santa again this year but I'm going to be entirely too busy, so it just isn't going to be a possibility for me. If anyone wants to take the reigns be my guest. Just be sure to get mod approval first, of course!

    ALSO: As I understand it the regular G&T Secret Santa is still in the works for this year. I do believe Doc Holliday is all up ons.
