To my Santee: because I fear sending this gift might not get there in time to you before xmas,
I have sent a little starter gift to you from Play-Asia, So think of it as part one (and two) of Twelve.
Man I need to go to the post office to ship off a book that I sold on Ebay, but I really wanted to do it with Santee's gift as well, but I don't think that's happening.

I went last night to pick up a local delicacy and the chocolatier in town was out! So today after work I will expand my search for the last part of my gift.

Wait, what? Chocolatier?
Where I'm from, the chocolatier is that 3 foot long display in the line-up at the grocery store. Chocolate bars, gum, maybe some batteries... some 400 iso film (Really? People still buy film?)
It'll be an Xbox 360 controller. He bought one and it didn't work, so they sent him a free one.
Whenever he gets something, though, I'm worried he's bought himself what I've got him.
Surely everyone in the world knows that "If I were you I'd wait and get one in January during the sales," is code for "Don't fucking buy one, I've bought you one for Christmas, and I've already wrapped it and everything," right?

I just avoid buying myself anything around this time of year to avoid that problem.
This year, it's much easier to do that because I'm flat broke.

I have a birthday in November, and people have taken to buying me gift cards for tech/game stores, which I'm subsequently afraid to use because I don't want to step on someone's toes for Christmas.
It's the reason I don't yet own Left 4 Dead 2 or New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and the only reason I bought Assassin's Creed 2 was because I had a voucher for it that was going to expire. Which sucks, because holy shit, I want to play those games.

Zoomed out, it looks like I'm in NYC, which I'm not (even though I am posting from there). I'm surprised I'm the only one in the area, though. You'd think with it being the biggest city in the world and all, that someone else would be there. Maybe this is a reverse-birthday paradox or something.
Well, the front page could use a list of approved proxy senders so this doesn't happen. Or someone needs to create a username simply for the passing of questions.

I believe the last time someone said something like this, it was mentioned that really anyone participating is a potential proxy. Just PM a handful of people participating, and posting actively in the thread, and ask for a proxy that way.

I PMed the last person who posted in the thread who has the little orange dot for my proxying needs. Both were very helpful and very prompt.

Last part purchased. As soon as it gets here, I will be shipping out my stuffs!! I will probably UPS it so I can make sure it gets there before the 25th.
On my way out to ship off my santee's present and I just got large, very beat up package on my porch. Might be my present? I'll find out when I get back.
A little bundle of joy showed up on my doorstep today!
I don't have a camera so I can't put up any pics but I just wanted to say, Blackbeard7, you fucking rock.
I got:
Original (nearly mint condition) copies of Mega Man 1 2 and 3 for the NES
A Mega man pin
Hand drawn sketches of X, Air Man, and Spark Man
The Megas: get equipped cd
some guitar tabs for different Mega Man songs
and 1600 microsoft points
I love it man.
edit: to my santee. I had some car trouble last month and was short on cash but expect yours in the next couple of weeks. I'll try to get it there by Christmas.
edit again: Doc's PM box is full. who do I pm to let them know I got my gift?

The card that he filled out says it's for my housemate.

Look on the bright side. Maybe it's something you wouldn't want anyway. Like a Christmas sweater... or poisoned baked goods.

I can't believe I'm the only Santa in Minnesota.
There's probably only one explanation.
You smell and should feel bad.
I made one attempt to mark myself, and couldn't recall my gmail log-in info. I'll give it another shot.
I can see why there isn't a PAX MidWest.

At least we share the lake.
High-five.
Oh wait, Chicago has been polluting the fuck out of it.
Obviously it is more convenient for me than for you, but to make up for it you have unfettered access to awesome British candy.
Watch out!

I will also point out, though, that if anyone does it for Jayson now that it'll be obvious that it's him.
