Trying to decide if I should just make one mega-list at Amazon, or if I should break it down by category (either also at Amazon, or through various websites).
I think that putting it between games like Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Mass Effect 2 was a bit of a mistake on my part. The fighting style and (obviously) graphics left me pondering.
I slogged through though and definitely dug the story, if not some of the gameplay nuances.
deus ex: the new one (as opposed to the ugly one or the bad one) for the PC, preferably on steam
art or poster i can put on my wall which my parents can see when they visit and not be offended, preferably something from a good webcomic like nedroid, bad machinery or kc green. or anything involving brainiac. (currently my walls contain this poster, a framed sheet of four uncut $2 bills, and a framed (replica) map of the world from the 1600s, but many walls are bare)
a fun board game i don't own, like betrayal at house on the hill (i only own vanilla catan, three decks of cards and some poker chips, so this is a very broad category)
shirt, I can wear mediums or larges.

Solid Saints (the one where you all bid on stuff auction style and the money goes to Child's Play) is still happening.
It is, however, being pushed into the new year for a number of reasons. Most of them are logistical in nature (i.e. new website, logo, auction tool, tax reasons that will make shit easier for the Child's Play crew, people will have holiday cash to spend, etc.)
Last year we raised just shy of $12k. This year we're going for $20k.
And as always, thanks to Neville for running this again...and to Mully for the art.
No problem
I will be providing stuff and buying a fuckton this year for sure.
Hopefully you guys will have the final bid time(s) a bit later than last year?
I couldn't refresh often enough when I was at work
Finding an "end auction" time for everyone coast to coast and globally is a bit of a thing, but we'll do what we can to accommodate most people.
There's a solid chance the auction will run over a weekend to give everyone enough time to hit the site and make their bids. We'll let ya know!
Oh absolutely.
Also, as soon as you get some dates in mind, let me know.
I need to run some stuff by PR here, but I have some cool stuff I'd like to donate.

I, too, shall reserve this spot for Secret Satans info later.
This is fine, however, until there is a link to a wishlist or post with actual info, you will not be added.
And since I said the signup email needs to contain these, people who don't have functional links/posts will not be added to the signed up list.
Not going to risk a signup then someone failing to provide suggestions as a way to "work around" the fact I'm requiring lists.
(Not singling you out, but this is a point I should have made clear before)

Man... Last year's Solid Saints got tense. My college campus lost power two minutes from the bids being closed.

If you did it wrong (didn't send the right address, didn't send a wishlist, etc):
YOU WILL NEED TO SEND THE ENTIRE EMAIL AGAIN.
Because I'm deleting emails that are done incorrectly so I don't have to search through tons of things when I'm making the PMs.

How is it that several of you who are extensive writers fail at reading comprehension?
The email MUST CONTAIN:
Your Name (YOUR REAL ONE. NO ALIASES. NO ABBREVIATIONS. If you aren't comfortable with that, don't sign up.)
Your full Address (INCLUDING country)
Your Preference in Sending Internationally: YES / NO ( I AM A POOR GOOSE BUT I WILL SUCK IT UP IF I GET PAIRED WITH ONE)
If NSFW gifts are OK or NOT Link to your amazon/foodzie/etsy/etc wishlist OR a few items here**
No Link to a wishlist or post = You WON'T be added to the list until you do it right.
I've got 7 people who did it right and 4 who fail already.
Not great odds.

I think I'll start working on my wishlist, and if I feel like I've got a sufficient enough list(s) by the end of the month, I'll sign up.
Also I guess I'll reserve this post for wishlist stuff, too.
If I get you I'm sending you mustard based BBQ sauces

Is .. is this a problem? Cause I might need to change mine around a bit >.>
To Amazon.com at once!!!
If I get Hunter, I'll send him copies of those pictures I took of him in Thailand surrounded by dead underage hookers.
And my bank account number.
hopefully he can read between the lines.
When I worked at the porn shop, we sold a giant double-headed dildo.
This thing was like 10 or 12 pounds of solid silicone, big around as my damn arm.
It was named "Manowar" for the peach colored, and "Mandingo" for the black one.
Without fail, the ones who bought it were always skinny dudes with shame in their eyes.
That you want me to book another trip to Thailand for the two of us?

But joy in their hearts
Whoever I get this year will also find donations to Childs Play in their name along with the gifts so that we can DOUBLE THE AWESOME.
And an echo in their anus.

Glad you managed to get some fun out of it.
Just send whomever a coupon for a free back rub next time they're in Atlanta.
but nobody else is posting a list in this thread
so you are hereby forbidden from reading this spoiler unless you get me as your target
Oh absolutely.
Also, as soon as you get some dates in mind, let me know.

But it is really hard to think of things that I want.

Happily accept any and all iOS stuff also.

Also contact Stareosarus or Sheri on the forum for ideas.
You are the best.
You did. 7+ people didn't include a link to a wishlist or post.
I stopped replying to them (since I said I wouldn't either).
Finishing the update.
If you sent it in already and aren't on the list when updated, you did it wrong.
If that's your wishlist, that's fine.
You'll have a smelly Christmas, RMED.
Hoisted by my own petard!
