https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5YDp953WU0Hello and welcome to Secret Santa, also known as Clue-Free Christmas, Hidden Holidays or X-Filed Xmas! It's coming up to that time of year where society paradoxically compells us to flex our "think of others" brain meats and our "buy stuff" brain meats. These brain meats can come into conflict if we don't exercise them properly. So what better way to get some practice in!
Want to be classy but are struggling to make ends meet? That's what Cryptic Cards are for! You can arrange to get someone to send a cheerful card to instead! Not that you can't send a card to your Santee as well.
How do I demonstrate classiness while participating?
First of all, I'm confident that we're all mature enough to deal with adult concepts like existential anxieties about world problems nudity. You can send people NC-17 movies and Lolita and stuff if you want, but in general don't send things with the sole intent of titillation. If you'd rather not receive risque things, make a note of it in your wishlist. Also of course, nothing illegal or dangerous. And no Bitcoins. Impressive Artistic Renditions of Bitcoins are acceptable though.
Second of all, you must post some kind of wishlist here. Some enjoy the thrill of forum stalking, but others don't have the time. Also, if possible, assemble a wishlist for a website in your homeland or for digital wares, so if necessary your Santa can avail of that.
In the past, I've allowed people to ask to be assigned a Santee in the same country as them, because International Postage is a troublesome expense. This has been super stressful to work around, so nowadays remember that by signing up, you agree to send internationally if necessary. To all Santees, this is why Amazon.co.uk or fnac.com or Steam or what have you should be availed of, to allow your Santa to send you things without spending a fortune on postage. So please put thought into that. Cryptic Card will continue to be exclusively international as well.
Finally, you must have a record of your gifts being posted. Amazon/Steam emails, recorded delivery receipt, what have you. It's a busy period and the postal system has failed before. You don't have to send them to your Santee unless there's a problem though.
[/Classiness Requirements]
So how do you sign up for replacing leg day with classy day? PM me. In the past I've allowed signups just in the thread, and had to chase down folk for their details separately. If I haven't received a PM by the closing date, that's tough cookies. Your PM should include:
-Your real name and address
-Whether you're being a Secret Santa and/or Cryptic Carder.
-Whether you wish to be on the reserve list for ungifted Santees (see below)
How much should you spend on your Santee? There are no hard limits. D&D has a huge spread of incomes, putting hard limits wouldn't be fair. If you feel artsy, homemade arts and crafts are a totally classy gift. All that matters is that you've put thought into what you're sending. Another option may be a charity donation in your Santee's name.
You'll have until November 9th to sign up, where concerns like All Hallow's Eve have concluded, but the opportunity to net some classy presents without busting your wallet at the likes of Black Friday has not passed you by. It will take me a few days to get everyone assigned, so I may be open to some last minute additions, but keep this date in mind. If enough people need it to make sure they can commit, I can punt this date out a week.
There are some restrictions to qualify for joining the Secret Santa, but hopefully aren't too onerous. In general, you should have been posting since January 2016. This isn't iron clad though, and I'll consider younger posters on a case by case basis, especially if someone vouches for them. That being said, I reserve the right to refuse the admission of anyone for any other reason. In addition the Mods have the final say over who can take part, and can veto any admission. Any such refusal should be taken up with them.
Ideally I'd like to have all the assignments sent to their Santas before Thanksgiving, which should give everyone around a month to figure out how best to be classy to your fellow man before the agreed upon date of Christmas. Problems can happen however, and I'll understand if by Christmas Eve your gift has not reached its recipient, especially if you've explained this to your Santee and myself. I advise you all to use tracking numbers when you send them in case something goes wrong. If you have failed to send me notification of any actions you have taken by January 20th, I shall be in contact with the Mods. They understand the importance of being classy, and frown upon those who ask for the responsibility and then shun it. You WILL be banned if you fail to live up to your obligation without good reason. Also, never display disappointment in what you receive. People are being classy and sending you gifts, and it is bad form to complain about what you receive and forget the reason behind the gift. In the event a Santee goes without gift, I will be asking someone on the reserve list to make it up to them, preferably by the end of February.
Remember, it's now what you give or get, but how classy you are in doing it.

NB: As I am a filthy Socialist European, if you are interested in purchasing things of an electronic bent, please keep regional compatability in mind. My computer can play Region 1 DVDs however.
The
Electronic Gaming - I roll with a PS3/4, PS Vita and a PC. Highlights of my collection are the Assassins Creed, Uncharteds, inFamouses (inFamii?), GTAs, Gods of War and Final Fantasy. Those recent HD Classic collections are pretty spiffy too. If my Santa wants to send me gifts by Steam or GOG.com, let me know and I'll relay my details. If you're stuck, PSN funding is nice.
Other Books - Comedy mostly, especially satire and/or parody. If you have any interesting history books I won't say no. Don't be afraid to send something that is neither of these. I'm also trying to bolster my literature cred too!
Comics - I'm interested in reading some of the more interesting one off stories. I'm also interested in graphic novel series. EXCEPTIONS: I'm not interested in reading Y: The Last Man or Walking Dead. I greatly enjoyed Matt Fraction's Hawkguy so other successful collected comic runs are welcome too.
Classic Cartoons - In the interest of expanding my Godson's and Nephew's cultural experience, I have been collecting classic cartoons, i.e. Cartoons made prior to 1970. I currently have Disney Treasures, Looney Tunes Golden Collections and the Complete Droopy and Tom & Jerry, but there are others I'd like to assemble.
The
"Art Of" Books - Know those books which are full of concept sketches and art for major movies and games? I like those, especially for recent animated films.
Webcomic Stuff - I read stuff like Nedroid, Hark! A Vagrant!, Bad Machinery and such. Books or non-clothing merchandise from such places are welcome.
Soundtracks - Think a popular movie/game/TV show sounds awesome? You're free to send some of that my way.
Arts & Crafts - Skilled with a brush or pencil or tablet or knitting needle and want to give something original? I'm down with that.
The
Clothes - I'm well stocked for non-nudity. EXCEPTION: Interesting Hats, although my head is rather big.
Model Kits - I don't have neither the time or skill to assemble them.
MMORPG subscriptions - I don't know how likely receiving this is, but I don't play any MMORPGs.
The
These are the wild if-my-Santa-is-a-generous-millionaire type wishes, which I shall spoil for fear of appearing greedy.
The
-Fund the installation of Photovoltaic Solar Panels on my roof
-Peace on Earth
-Perpetual Energy becomes viable, widespread and cheap
-Alzheimers and other conditions that degenerate a person's mental condition are cured
-A cure for Diabetes
-Heavy investment in Atmospheric Carbon Scrubbing
If these are hopelessly vague, I have a cheat sheet you can reference.
I don't like dubstep, house, tomatoes, fish eggs, shonen, IPAs, lite beer, cognac.
If I receive and PC or PS4 game, I would be able to play them. I enjoy fighting, racing, jrpg, turn based tactical games and space 4x. I haven't bought much recently other than xcom and the shadowrun games and kickstartered the battletech thing.
since thursday I read through shattered starlight, carciphona, and everblue. Shrug.
I own all the culture books, and everything by gibson, and stevenson, and all the expanse novels, and most of The Long [Thing] books. I like sci-fi and fantasy a bunch, but... like if you find a list of the top 100 whatever books? pretty safe assumption I've read all of them.
Kinda playing netrunner a bit.
Unique things made by people are nice. Artwork? Clothing and leatherwork that would work well at burning man.
ehh... that's not very specific. I will come up with a few specific things I want them.
If you like it and it's not on my dislike list then go nuts.
If you do arts and crafts I'd love those as well
I have a very isolated social life in meatspace so tabletop games are probaly not a good option
I don't have a PC and home internet is limited
Dislikes: Dr. Who, steampunk, anime(Miyazaki is acceptable), Neal Stephenson
Risqué stuff is fine
I have an Amazon wishlist but it's pretty sparse right now.
-Indiana Solo, runner of blades
WHAT I LIKE IS EQUALITY
AND LET ME BE REAL, RIGHT NOW I'M WAY MORE INTO CHARITABLE DONATIONS FOR THOSE FIGHTING TO KEEP THE EQUAL RIGHTS WE'VE GAINED OVER THE LAST EIGHT YEARS
I DONT NEED THINGS, MY WIFE AND I HAVE RELATIVELY STABLE JOBS
IF YOU MUST PROVIDE ME WITH MATERIAL GOODS, PLEASE SEND FOOD OR SMALL THINGS. MAYBE HANGING PRINTS FROM SOCIETY SIX OR SOMETHING? I DONT KNOW. I LIKE POKEMON AND MONSTER HUNTER AND MEGAMAN AND DESTINY A LOT. BUT A PERSONAL TOUCH WILL BE MORE APPRECIATED, AND CHARITY IS THE BEST GIFT OF ALL
IM NOT HARD TO BUY FOR
*buzzes merrily*
You're supposed to PM to sign up
-Indiana Solo, runner of blades
and sometimes I like things
I like marvel stuff. I like rocket raccoon. I like Pop! Figurines (marvel)
I don't know just read my post history for Christ's sake I don't exactly hide my feelings ever
I don't have TIME to read!
I WAS ELECTED TO LEAD NOT TO READ
!SIGNUP
"We believe in the people and their 'wisdom' as if there was some special secret entrance to knowledge that barred to anyone who had ever learned anything." - Friedrich Nietzsche
I just moved into my first real long-term place so --
HOUSE STUFF
OTHER STUFF
NSFW: Sure I guess, but I would prefer that this was the hard(HAHAHA)cover Chester 5000 XYV and its sequel or Hamletmachine's dating sim or a gift card for Naja or a pair of THINX or something else related to my interests than gag gifts - in other words, sure, but be thoughtful and maybe troll through my post history a bit
VIDEO GAM? FOR PC
CLOTHES -- I'm a size M in shirts, L/10 in all pants and tights
AND FINALLY - if you make things, I would love whatever thing you make!! I love homemade gifts ^^
Anyway!!
overall LIKES: Flowers, comics (I'm always interested in cool comics people like!! I'd love to start Sex Criminals for instance and I only have sandman 1 and 2 and would LOVE the rest), Dragon Age, hair stuff, cooking/baking, ergonomic computer stuff (I have carpal tunnel in my right hand and super need an ergonomic mouse), scented candles, candles of the variety that melt into lotion, bath stuff (think Lush)
overall DISLIKES: Game/show merchandise - everything I own I have to lug around pretty frequently, I have nowhere to keep a bunch of stuff-for-stuffs'-sake or collectible items, also, I just don't really wear t-shirts unless I'm going to do something messy in them
Stationary! I work in a stationary/card store so if I want some I'll get some
I may add to this later
ALSO JSYK @spool32 and @Belasco32 are my parents so if you have questions or you want to make sure you're not getting me something they're getting me, shoot 'em a PM
I'd love it if you took a look at my art and my PATREON!
There are no phallas here anymore so I just wanted to lime something
!vote knitdan
Coconut and drink it all up.
YES PLS:
Video Games:
- I play on PS3/PS4/Vita/PC
- I have Rock Band so PSN dollars for more songs would be nice
- Games with a heavy exploration, crafting, possibly survival element would be nice (I've been big into The Long Dark lately)
- the Shadowrun games. I love cyberpunk but haven't had a chance to check them out yet
- WWE 2k16 or 17. I just love the create a wrestler stuff.
Comics:
- Wolverine stuff. I just started collecting so all I have is Jason Aaron's vol 1 collection and Old Man Logan. I have a preference for earlier stuff (basically anything that would've shown up in the 90s cartoon)
- Hellboy/BPRD is always appreciated (I have vol. 1-12 HB trades, vol 1 Hellboy in Hell, Hellboy and the BPRD 1952, and some BPRD stuff I can't remember. don't have any Abe Sapien though)
- Whedon's Astonishing X-Men run
- Marvel Unlimited subscription
Other things:
- Muay Thai stuff of any variety. T-shirts, hand wraps, ankle supports, shorts, DVDs, anything. Twins is the preferred brand for gear.
- Cat things. I have a dumb little jerk of a cat who likes to chew on stuff. Anything she can play with that doesn't require human participation would be nice because she's stuck at home a lot while I'm at work.
- Tea. I really dig herbal tea, lemon/ginger/ginseng/chamomile. There's this Creme Caramel Rooibos at David's Tea that's super delicious too.
- Whedon-related things. I own all his shows on DVD/Blu-ray (except Dr. Horrible) but t-shirts/figures/etc. would be nice.
- Ancient Rome things. I totally dig The History of Rome podcast. Books about Rome or documentaries or whatever would be awesome.
- WW1 things. Anything about the Canadian forces in WW1.
- Art things. Good pencils and kneadable erasers. I have plenty of sketchbooks but a really nice mechanical pencil would be awesome.
- Books. Favourite authors: Raymond Chandler, Cormac McCarthy, William Gibson. Favourite genres: Cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic, sci-fi, hardboiled detective, urban/modern/whatever it's called fantasy - stuff with vampires and stuff in the modern era that isn't romance. Seriously no romance ever. I already own a fair chunk of Chandler/McCarthy/Gibson so just use them as guidelines for something interesting that I likely haven't read yet.
NO THX:
- NSFW stuff
- Posters/wall art. I have like a billion posters I still need to hang somewhere.
- Horror games
- Anime
Other notes:
- I am in Canadia, so keep that in mind for shipping
- t-shirt size men's small
- Thai shorts size L

Forget it...
I haven't been doing much reading lately, but I think I got over my love of e-readers and reluctance to purchase physical books since moving since now I have more space, so books are good (E-book or physical are both good! I'll link to my Amazon below). I haven't been doing much reading lately, so anything written in the last 5-10 years that isn't Naomi Novik, Jim Butcher, Ann Leckie or Patrick Rothfuss is likely something I haven't read.
Movies are fine, but I have a pretty big collection. Don't send me anything MCU unless you can magic up a blu-ray of Agents of SHIELD season 3. :P I have everything else.
I like interesting or quirky things that you can't get outside of where YOU live.
My Amazon wishlist
My Steam wishlist
I am big into homebrew and have my own taps at home. Beer related stuff is welcome.
I have a lot of interests, but I think I can boil down gift suggestions to the following:
* Broadway musicals and showtunes - I have a very large collection of Broadway musicals and books. My collection is caught up to the 2016 Tony's (which covers the 2015 season), but anything released in 2016 or later, I'm likely not to already own (and I usually "catch up" when the Tony's roll around again in June). I also only own a couple of DVDs of shows, so I'm always wanting to expand my collection. Finally, I also own the Hamiltome (Hamilton: The Revolution) and the Hamilton Newsweek special edition. Sorry!
* A Cappella music - I already own all of Pentatonix and Straight No Chaser's stuff. I really enjoy A Cappella music, but my collection here is small. Harmony Sweepstakes CDs or something similar would be a great gift for me.
* Cats - I love cats. Cat-themed things are automatically a ++ for me, and my cat always appreciates more toys.
* Pen and Paper Roleplaying Games - I run a regular game of The One Ring and Shadowrun (Shadowrun may be a bad gift choice, since I have nearly every book ever published for the franchise!). I generally don't like FATE, Apocalypse World games, and Dungeons and Dragons/Pathfinder. I am interested in checking out Star Wars: Edge of the Empire.
* Monster Hunter - As you can see by my avatar, I'm a huge Monster Hunter fanatic.
Things I don't like:
* Figurines - I have no use for them.
* Video Games - I LOVE Video Games, don't get me wrong. But I work in the Video Game industry, so I have all the games I ever want.
* NSFW
* Carbs. On a low-carb diet. This means no chocolate or candy or stuff like that.
My Christmas wishlist rarely alters, so this is almost a straight cut and paste job from two three four years ago, updated to include boardgames purchased in the interim.
I like Lego (I like the DC/Marvel/Modular building stuff, and have a ton already, though nothing from the latest batches except the Ghost Rider/Spider man) and boardgames (I have TI3, 7 Wonders, Rex, Alien Frontiers, Arkham Horror, Quarriors, Quantum, Dead of Winter, Pandemic, Tokaido, Star Trek: Fleet Captains, Netrunner, Dice Duels, Coup, Eclipse, Eldritch Horror, King of New York, Cthulhu Wars, Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective, Spyfall, Mysterium, Agricola (plus expansions for all) and my buds I always play with have Android: Infiltration, Munchkin, BSG, Dominion, Spartacus, Ticket to Ride, Ghost Stories, Android, Forbidden Suns, Race For The Galaxy and Dixit). Honestly though I may have enough boardgames to be getting on with for now. I am obsessed with Netrunner, but need no cards unless they're old and rare alt-art and already have mats and deckboxes aplenty. You could get some funky tokens, I guess, though I have a big bag of the orange credit tokens already. Classy and unusual movie posters (for good movies) delight my cold heart. I am a size medium if you cannot be swayed from buying me a t-shirt. I like real ale, fine wine and good food. I am in my late thirties forty in my forties now Jesus Christ, married, no kids and no pets.
Honestly, just get me whatever. Last birthday my mum got me slippers at my request. That's the guy you're gifting.
DO NOT WANT:
I don't watch the animes or read manga, and find figurines and geeky nick-nacks to be pointless clutter. NSFW presents are funny for about two seconds max, so don't bother. Music is always tricky when buying blind, so probably not. If you must I like classical music, jazz, bluegrass and pop. But come on, musical taste is horribly difficult to mesh with, so you're on a hiding to nothing if you try.

Battlenet ID: MildC#11186 - If I'm in the game, send me an invite at anytime and I'll play.

He's got the pox and it's very painful and embarrassing.
-Indiana Solo, runner of blades
Guess I'm not the only one who's confused.
Battlenet ID: MildC#11186 - If I'm in the game, send me an invite at anytime and I'll play.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh
It's weird how brain meats refuse to twig sometimes
Katy Perry
Likes:
Power Rangers (Yes, seriously)
Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit
Avatar (The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra, not Dances with Smurfs)
Starcraft (Mostly watching eSports. TLO-chan...)
MCU
Lovecraft (the mythos, not the dude, come on)
Spaaaaaaaaaaace
Urban Fantasy (Dresden Files, The Iron Druid Chronicles, Alex Verus, etc [though I've read all of those series, but stuff in that vein is fun])
Things I like:
Board Games (mostly co-op instead of competitive, but it's not a hard rule)
Vidja Games (I have a Steam wishlist that's not kept that up to date, but you should also be able to see what kinds of games I play)
Wall art
Collectibles (bookshelf type stuff)
Books
Signed things especially, for display pieces. Doubly so if it's the artist
Not so much:
Figurines
Things that take up a ton of space
NSFW things just for the sake of NSFW
Coffee / Tea
Chocolate (I'm allergic)
For video games, I have a PC, a Ninendo DS and a Wii, but nothing from the current gen. (You're welcome to fix that though, wink wink). If you need to run something by someone (whether I have something already or what-not), hit up
I have both Steam and Amazon wishlists that are both not in any order at all.
My Amazon one is a bit weak at the moment as it was just my birthday and I haven't reloaded it.
DRX's wishlist!
I like the following things in no particular order; Overwatch, Doctor Who, Legend of Korra, Steven Universe, Zelda, Metal Gear Solid, Mass Effect, Gundam and gunpla models, Marvel comics!
Material possessions I'd like: I don't have a ton of living space, so while videogames and books are good for me, I prefer regular paperbacks to hardbacks or fancy editions! I am into sci fi, horror and crime. With vidyas I mostly prefer regular, non special edition box copies of stuff, as the internet here ain't strong, but there's a couple exceptions I'd like a digital copy of! ;P
The PS4 has gone to live with Lady Raven, so I can't play it. I have a US region 3DS, UK region Wii U, X360 and Vita, and plan on getting an Xbone before Xmas! I also recently hooked up my PC again, and am dismayed at how it struggles with Overwatch, so if you're a bazillionaire I wouldn't say no to a better graphics card. ;P
Amazon Wishlist - Steam Wishlist
So, I've been told I'm hard to shop for because I tend to buy the things I need or want anyway.
I recommend not getting me any mainstream games. I have all the systems and I tend to buy them at random as the mood strikes me. I only play like 10% of the games I buy so...yeah.
I'm really into photography. Trying to really move into professional photography now. I love anime and while I used to suck up all the anime I could find, I slowed down a bit.
I love quirky things. Handmade things. Nerdy things. I love cyberpunk. I love steampunk. I love steamy cyberpunk.
I'm getting more and more interested in cooking.
I would love a personal jetpack or personal molecular transportation device.
A time machine.
The aforementioned Katy Perry.
I've always wanted to date Sailor Moon or Sailor Mercury in real life. Or Kristen Bell.
I am not a huge fan of turnips.
Thinkgeek is cool though I have so much weird swag that I don't use and just sits in my closet, I dunno.
Women.
Waterworld was a good film.
Goblets.
Microsoft Hololens.
Chalices.
Abhor chastity.
Anyway that's my list. Hope it helps.
P.S. NSFW is fine. Just no dildos please. Other than slapping people in the face with them they are not worth much to me.
General Theme Ideas.
I'm a graphic designer so art stuff is always good, books etc, or if you're also artsy I would love something handmade
I'm a homebrewer so feel free to send me beer if you are too, I can even send you back an offical judge sheet back if you want
I have an amazon wishlist full of expensive Lego sets and other stuff
If you recently won the lottery I would probably breakdown and cry for a cintiq display or a canon 5d III or IV
NSFW is fine, I'm not sure how my wife feels about people on the internet sending me sex stuff...but I would probably get a laugh out of it.
I am still in Canada, home to the worlds sexiest prime minister and possible future home of many Americans, depending on how the election goes . So, ordering via amazon.ca or something will probably work out better for you than shipping to here from where ever you are, especially with the exchange rates favouring just about every other major currency in the world. Except maybe the pound.
Just a heads up, I'll be leaving my new home and native land for my old home and native land on the 20th of December, and won't be back until the 3rd, so you may need to take that into account when sending things.
Pls:
It's been a year, but i'm still trying to make my flat liveable, espically as FrauCron now lives with me.
So my Amazon wishlist contains a few things I reckon I need, plus some xbone games, but feel free to use them as a starting point if you want. I do most of the cooking and as such i do like kitchen gadgets and such, they always get put to good use.
I've been meaning to catch up with Marvel comics for the past however long, so i'd be happy with anything related to that. I haven't read anything marvel related since the whole Onslaught saga nonsense. so there's ample scope there. Or, If you're feeling crazy generous, a subscription to marvel unlimited will make me the happiest girl in all the land. (FrauCron has decided that she's getting this for me, so that's this off the list)
As for video games I have a North American Xbone, and a European Wii and 3DS so probably only Xbone games make sense. My backloggery contains all the games i own, should you need to do some cross referencing.
I've also been looking into expanding my frog ramming skills leading into an eventual career change, so if you happen to know of any good books for c#, WPF and all that jazz, that's great.
Or... just go hogwild! Pick whatever you fancy! Anything I get will be welcome. Even NSFW stuff is fine, if you want to go that route, who am I to judge?
Pls staph:
I'm a goddamn dirty Coeliac, so I can't consume things with gluten in them. So as much as I love tasty treats you're gonna have to check and see if they're gluten free. It's a pain in the ass, trust me, I know. Anything else is fine!
Celeste [Switch] - She'll be wrestling with inner demons when she comes...
