So, I have been out of town all week with Turkey day and my birthday was also last week
I was very pleasantly surprised when I checked the forums this morning at work:
Hey dude,
It's Secret Santa time, and you are lucky to be getting phase 1 of your gift sooner than I intended.
I had planned to get you this anyway, but since it just went on sale, I got it early. I hope you haven't decided to get it in the sale too.

I'll be sending your physical package when it is ready. Be sure to punch the Joker's goons into the Christmas Spirit.
Your no longer secret Santa,
LewieP
Thank you very much LewieP! I have really wanted this game, but have put my self on a game buying hiatus until after the Holidays.
Sorry it took so long to recognize your awesome!
Also, Santee: I have purchased round 1 of your present, more to come.
I'm glad you hadn't got it already, I saw you mentioned planning to get it at some point, so I thought I would have to beat you to it when it went on sale.
Also, I have ordered the gifts for my Santee. I haven't seen him around the G&T parts for a while, and his style of nerdyness is very different from my own, so I hope I did alright in the gifting.
Now I wait for them to get to my apartment so I can shove anything else I can find in there.
I have recieved two of my gifts. Thankyou very much, I am very pleased with them, just what I wanted. However, your note mentioned that there was a third to come so I'll wait before posting. I can't wait!

Dear Santa, I know Watchmen Ultimate Cut is on my wish list, but man it's on sale for 30 bucks right now and I have to pick it up while it is half price. Adjust purchasing plans as necessary.
Dear Santee, I hate you with the burning passion of a thousand suns, and that is why you are getting better gifts than my entire family, possibly put together.

Last night bestbuy.com had some sweet deals on games. I'm not sure if they still have any today, though. They all had free shipping as well. I know this because I looked over when my girlfriend was on the computer and saw her buying Fallout 3 for me! YAY!

Ah damn! And I bought you five copies for your gift. Oh well, I guess you can give them away to the homeless. They love Fallout.

She was buying it for herself to fuel her secret gaming addiction. Guess who's been sucking dick behind the Olive Garden. :winky:

Man, Batman AND more gifts? Arkham Asylum was the last game I was going to buy until I put myself on the exact same hiatus (see: backlog thread), but didn't have the cash.
Woo Steam, enabling early Secret Santa success!

Santee: I ordered your gifts on Amazon UK today. Expect 2 different packages, maybe 3, at some point in December, so don't be alarmed. I'll be sending a letter as well with explanations for everything at some point later this week as well
Okay... so not only one item I thought about giving to my santee has gotten fucked up in delivery, now two have. I guess reading isn't a required skill to have.
Sat in bed with awful cold when my wife tells me an amazon parcel has arrived.
I was most cheered up to find a gift wrapped from Morvidus inside!
Being a 34 year old child this was unwrapped within seconds.
Thanks Morvidus for the awesome Iron Maiden blu-ray - I was uber keen to see this but would probably never got round to buying it - so in many ways the best type of gift!
On a side note also got the 10th anniversary fight club blu ray too so will move sick bed to cinema room at some point.
Also realised that I didn't let my Santee know who I was - should I have done that? I thought it was secret and all...
So apparently I don't have a Secret Santa. I have a Secret Holy-Shit-It-Is-Some-Kind-Of-Super-Mega-Santa.
Pics & Story:
This came in the mail today.
With this sauce little warning on it
Which apparently in Alaska, liquids can't be left in the cold, so I had to go to the post office to pick it up. Anyway, being liquid had my curiousity piqued, so I had to dig in.
Inside I find a bunch of Wangs, Cocks and Dicks, so naturally I did the hand off to my wife. She knows how to handle a bunch of wangs, cocks and dicks at once.
Further inside I found wonderful notes, and several wrapped presents. Hemingway helped me investigate something that clearly smelled of deluxe, grade a, new york tasty.
Inside I found strategies to make Chicken Wings, the legit way. I was also threatened to do it the right way, and not the ranch way, lest I be stabbed with Whale Blubber. I also got some graphic novels, including Red Son, the russian superman, since Sarah Palin established how good friends the Russians and us are.
And then long story short, I also got chocolate, 3 packs of legos, Mass Effect, Mother-fucking Dragon Age and Dead Space to which my wife yelled "GOD DAMNIT!"
...Apparently she already bought me Dead Space for Christmas. And it just so happens last year, Urahonky sent me Assassins Creed for Christmas... after my wife already got that for me for christmas... She has proposed the warning that if I ever get a video game that she has already planned on and purchased to give to me for christmas from someone else again, I will never be able to touch a computer so long as I live. Anyway, my wife is returning it and she has a bunch of gift ideas and like a million other gifts for me, so it's all a happy story in the end.
Thanks so much Secret Santa, I will deduce who you are. You really made my night and kick started the cheer. Perfect timing the day after thanksgiving. You are too kind and I will post updates with my buffalo wings when I make them. Merry Christmas and happy new year from Mr. & Mrs. Eddy.

This goes to my Santa as well, if you've sent the package and have been awaiting my praise, it will come after said date
Awesome game. I beat it awhile ago, and I've been working on my golden sunflower trophy.
I have recieved two of my gifts. Thankyou very much, I am very pleased with them, just what I wanted. However, your note mentioned that there was a third to come so I'll wait before posting. I can't wait!

Oh man my wife downloaded the demo and loved that game. Never got around to playing it myself. I love me some popcap.

aw man I was looking forward to a Smiling Santa Dan avatar.

I humbly request the same for my avatar. Here's a larger version if that helps
Merry Christmas!
or
I just bought New Super Mario Bros Wii.
So...
Don't get me that.
Cheers!
-Your Santee
:winky:
Santee, be thrilled, for your gift approaches.
It'd be in the mail now, if one excitable little HURGLBURGL hadn't decided to break away and hide in the uncharted depths beneath my bed.
where is it?
nobody knows
I hope you enjoy it, man. MAIDEN RULES!
