    Forumers with 4 letter handles that aren't already someone's santa.

    I promise it isn't me. And don't forget that there are forumers that go by nicknames of their forum names.

    @Two Headed Boy

    My vote is it's Ante. He loves him some puzzles.

    Haha my stepmom bought them for me for Christmas. They asked for a phone number to keep on file just in case she lost the paper... So they went ahead and sent them to me! I have to pretend to be surprised now. :)

    My Santa has surprised me yet again! He apparently has started bullying other forumers into doing his dirty work, so watch your backs!

    This time, he "convinced" TestSubject23 to send me Trials Evolution!

    I'll bet it's me - sometimes I abbreviate to LiLo.

    No...wait...it wasn't me.

    Ok, so, the contents of the safe are incomplete, but tomorrow morning I will have all of the parts and will do a proper GiftGet post. Is that ok? I know I'm a bit of a dickerdoodle for posting just the unlocked safe picture, I couldn't help myself.


    The passcode did, indeed, reveal who my Santa was. Or, rather, once I determined who he was, I knew the passcode.

    So you opened the safe to reveal pieces of a treasure map, right?

    Oh man, what if the friend who delivered the safe buried the final present in THB's backyard, and the safe had a map to find it?

  • KirindalKirindal Registered User regular
    Nah, that's not going far enough. Bury the present in the local cemetery, nothing like a little grave-robbing in the dark of night.

    It's not Secret Santa, but I'm willing to risk the infraction being I've mentioned it here before :)

    Despite it being Friday the 13th my wife and I got a nice early Christmas present, we had our Adoption panel today. We were judged by a room full of people and came out successful. We've been approved to adopt up to two children between the ages of 0 and 3 years old.

    Hurrah, a Christmas Miracle, someone thinks I'm a suitable parent!

    WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! That's fantastic news, congratulations xoxoxoxoox

    And in other news, Santee, I hope you like chocolate, cos there was more room in the box than I expected, so there's lots in there! It will be on its way later on today :)

    I wish I could recall, but I've never had a Santa that I'd call that.

    Thanks, pony-person!

    WHOOO thank fuck, I have been lamenting the loss of this package so hard.

    IT WAS ME CJ! IT WAS ME ALL ALOOOONG

    Remember I was all distraught cause ya didn't like Deep Fear?

    Took me a whole year but bam, box o chocs. <3

    So, I was deployed, and lucky enough to get home right before the holidays. Waiting for me was a ton of mail (I collect things):

    Vr4qZur.jpg

    Inside of the pile was a box I didn't recall ordering from Amazon

    pjHoIzh.jpg

    LJ7mhdW.jpg?1

    It looked like a book (but those are for nerds!) and a box too large to be a game. But I was wrong! The new Ys game and the hardback Art of Amanda Conner book!

    zMurktp.jpg

    Perfectly stalked, Santa! I just finished up the new Zelda game, so Ys hit the spot. The book is full of spectacular imagery by one of my favorite artists. The pile of thin packages on the desk is original comic art and various other pieces I've been commissioning while I was away, so you might be able to say I'm into that stuff.

    Guessing by the initials and my newest Steam friend, I think it's safe to say that my Santa is @cj iwakura, and he nailed it! Thanks a ton!

    Ah, I've got it! I did some sneaky searching, I even called the gentleman whose name and number was on the card sent to me (he didn't pick up though), and I perused our very own PAX forum to find out who my Santa is. After becoming insanely jealous of how much fun PAX looks, I came across a picture of someone who had won what looks like a kickass computer. Just a little more research on that and I found out for sure that my Santa must be @Mighty!

    Woo! Thank you Mighty! I've got the LEGO set splayed across a table for construction, and my wife and I are planning on trying Sentinels of the Multiverse tonight! And it is truly a shame the light-sensitive device didn't work right away, that would have been so cool, but I'll pretend it worked and love it anyway. I'm thinking of taking the device to work to leave in some fun places. Should be exciting! And thanks for giving me a hunt to find out who you are, that was exciting. I hope I am right in my guess!

    Nothing on this end, but I'll give the others here a shake first in case any of them might have misplaced any packages.

    Don't be, I'm glad to have it and I will finish that awful game one day. :P

    You got me a way better gift than the first year I joined the G&T SS. If you don't remember that, the bar was forever set.

    So your honor was always intact. <3

    Glad it got there, and thank god it's something you don't own. :P A fellow packrat is no easy target, let me tell you.

    Sorry I botched Overkill, I thought it wasn't in your playlist. :( I hope someone else puts it to good use.

    Enjoy! The Celceta LE is gorgeous. (The game's no slouch either.)


    Also, I want to know what's in those boxes! I can wait.

    Awesome! I have a spreadsheet full of information weeding out those who could not be my Santa, which did help lower the list to about 30 contenders, and it was just a fun search later that I discovered you. Thanks again!

    @spookymuffin I want to open all those boxes. Getting packages in the mail is the best. YS is awesome too! I hope to get it soon, but I've promised myself no new Vita games until I finish my old ones. (Namely Soul Sacrifice and Dragon's Crown)

    Dear Santee, your package has been ordered today! I even used my a month trial of free Amazon Prime to get it to you faster! It estimates the 18th for arrival but I think it'll come sooner!
