SECRET SATANS 2015: WE DID IT. 10/10 PERFECT GIFTING ALL AROUND!

Welcome to Secret Satans 2015. Hail Satan!

SIGNUP deadline: November 14th, 11:59PM EDT.
GIFTING deadline: January 31st, 11:59PM EDT. Your gift must be received by this time!

It's that time of year again! In the spirit of the season I'm going to steal a bunch of wisdom from Neville and Usagi, who have helped run this shindig in the past:

RULES
1. There is no minimum spending amount and no maximum spending amount.
2. International people are allowed. If you have some super big problem with it, let me know in your sign up email, but I cannot 100% guarantee you will not get someone in Australia, New Zealand, or lesser Uranus. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THIS POSSIBILITY, DO NOT SIGN UP. Note: Canada is NOT considered "international."
3. If nobody knows who you are, you probably will not be allowed to sign up. This is to cut down on the number of deadbeat Satans. If you have less than 500 posts and nobody else knows you, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED (Exceptions are known significant others of folks, etc)
4. People who do not send gifts will be banned.
5. DO NOT BITCH ABOUT WHAT YOU GOT. CONVERSELY, TRY TO SEND PEOPLE THINGS YOU THINK THEY WILL LIKE BASED ON WHAT THEY POST.
6. Do NOT send NSFW gifts unless they specifically OK it in the info sent to you when you get your person.
7. You MUST have a wishlist post. You can make it in this thread. It can link to Amazon or some other website with multiple ideas. Just because you consider yourself well-known doesn't mean people will know what to get for you.

SIGNUP:
Send an EMAIL where the subject is YOUR FORUM NAME to secretsatans2015@gmail.com with the following information:
Your REAL NAME
Your MAILING ADDRESS
Your CELL PHONE NUMBER

Your PREFERENCE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
Your PREFERENCE FOR NSFW GIFTS
Your LINK TO YOUR WISHLIST / SUGGESTIONS POST. You can make your posts in this thread, make sure they are linked in your email before you sign up. Don't fuck this up!

Example email:
SUBJECT: Forumer_69XXX

REAL NAME: John J Johnson
MAILING ADDRESS: 23 my address
wherever, wherever, USA
CELL PHONE NUMBER:( 555) - 555 5555

PREFERENCE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Yes
PREFERENCE FOR NSFW GIFTS: Yes
LINK TO YOUR WISHLIST / SUGGESTIONS POST: https://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/comment/28316347#Comment_28316347

As always, if your gift isn't received by the gifting deadline (January 31st), you will be banned, no exceptions. Once you receive your gift, you are required to post that it has been received. Please do this within 1-2 days of receipt.

Q: My person lives outside the country! What if shipping takes a long time?
A: Oh shit! Better plan ahead!

Q: I got evicted from my apartment! I can't afford a present right now.

    I need to not forget to send my email this year.
    So, my sig will link you to my Steam and Xbox profiles, and that will tell you the types of games I like, and give a glimpse to my personality.

    I'm also a fan of board games, though I haven't had as much time to play them as I once did.

    I am trying to become more fashionable, but I feel like I'm hard to buy clothes for since I like a particular fit in a lot of things.... but if you want to give it a shot I'm generally T shirt size L.

    I recently got married, and I'm now starting the house-hunt thing, so that's the big thing going on in my life right now.

    I play mostly PC or Xbox One games, but I also have a 3DS (though the L and R buttons are kinda janky so I've been catching up on the Phoenix Wright games since they don't need them :) ) and a PS3.

    Really, anything local you have would be super-awesome. I like getting weird things from people all around the world. That's one of my favorite parts of this whole thing.

    Rolo thank you for running this this year

    edit:

    Oh, hello good satan...
    I'm reusing most of my spiel from last year, so if you get deja vu don't worry, you're quiet sane. Or observant. Take your pick!

    I may add to this post as I think of things to say, but I'll try to keep it short and sweet. I'm a 32 year old dude living in the Northeast, typical nerdy stuff is fine by me. 6'00'' and fat (typically go 2XL in sizes), no sense beating around the bush there. I'll try just about any kind of music, movie or book you can throw at me. As sacrilegious as this would sound don't worry about getting me any bideo games this year - I have so many from the last few years piled up to play that I'm definitely not for want in that field. If you must, I have a PC, PS4, Wii U and 3DS for current gen stuff. If you get completely stuck for ideas, gift cards would actually be rad. I know I'm leaving this somewhat vague as it is. I could always use another hoodie though (I have a lot of affection for my N7 hoodies, they're nerdy enough to please but not so outlandish that every conversation I have with someone who doesn't know what Mass Effect is feels need to comment on its design).

    I know my Amazon wishlist has tons of expensive stuff in it, but don't feel like you have to hold to any of that. Also if you do get something from it but not from Amazon, please make sure you mark it as purchased as I share that list with friends and family members as well. Honestly I'm sure whatever you get me I'll like. Feel free to ping ideas off rhylith or Yukira, they know my likes a bit. Thank you very much in advance!

    Hey Satan!
    I have slaughtered many goats this year in your name and have imbibed the ritual oils as commanded.

    Gift stuff
    I run a podcast so if you have a hookup for real good mics and headphones that is cool and appreciated.
    I play ps4 games mostly but also do stuff on steam on occasion. Also I have a wiiu!

    Ps4: the_road_virus
    Steam: theroadvirus

    If you are buying clothes, I wear a xlt/xxl shirt, 38/34 pants, size 13 shoe, 50L jacket

    I like to cook and read and have a bunch of board games and play those for nerd nights with friends.

    I like art books for video games

    Uhhh I'm an it guy by day

    I'm open to trying new things and am generally a fan of most nerdy things. Digital games are preferable to physical unless they're board games and uhhh if you have any questions you can reach out to my sister in law N1tst4lker here on the forums or email my wife (ask N1tst4lker for email address if needed)

    I have An Amazon wish list here: http://amzn.com/w/1W7W13A38E6QH

    I've got an almost 9 year old named Gabriel who is into legos and star wars and a 3 year old named Charlie who is into Mario and also legos

  • BucketmanBucketman Call me SkraggRegistered User regular
    Dear Glorious Satan. I have an Amazon Wishlist here: http://amzn.com/w/19FGWFJR7NKR5

    but in general things I enjoy: I just got a 3DS and literally only have Bravely Default as far as games goes, I like beer and tea, and love silly/funny mugs and coffee cups. I play pen and paper RPGs as well as board games, so those are always a good bet, I recently started painting minis for RPGs thanks to last years Secret Satans and can always use more paint/minis to paint. Oh and I collect cool RPG dice as well. I have an Xbox One and a PC, I read comics and have an ipad and a kindle. I enjoy all sorts of books, including comics and with my ipad/kindle combo can get books digitally as well as physically. I also like kitchen gadgets a lot, I love cooking and using my gadgets like some kind of cooking wizard.

    Thats about all I can think of. <3 you and HAIL SATAN!

    Still my favourite forum thing.

    I don't know if I'm going to participate this year, mainly because the thing I want most is.. a house. Which I'm unlikely to receive from my satan, and will cut into what I can give my satanee.

    Maybe though. We'll see. It's been a couple years since I've been able to, and I miss it!

    Well, I mean, they could get you a kind of house, I'm sure. Might be too small to actually live in since it might be made of LEGO. But still!

    Aaaaaaaand I joined again after taking last year off. Ebaying things in preparation for gifting this year, so I have plenty of cash.

    I always look forward to raining down the horrors of the holidays down upon these forums. This is literally a thing I look forward to every year. I am terrible at giving gifts but I hope that one year I will be able to deliver something amazing to my person.

    Maybe this year is the year. Maybe my Satanee is you.

    My wishlist is massive because I just throw anything I might want on it. You could spend forever browsing it and not know what to get. Anything on there would be a success. It is in NO ORDER, it's just kind of thrown together.

    I wear an XL shirt unless it runs small, then I need an XXL.
