Aw man I'd love to send internationally but the costs I have from PAX Aus are pretty high already and I'm only sending stuff to two people. I can't handle any more $40 packages.

fishfishmonkeyhat

@zerzhul can we please get this pinned since the deadline for sign-up is so short?

vonhist

excited to do this again.

RocketOgre

Looking forward to our first year doing this!

I've got a few problems with the page, actually. When I hit Submit in Chrome the button greys out but doesn't refresh or seem to do anything, and when I go to Check Registration (in IE). the popup window gets stuck behind the YouTube video. When I try to Check Registration in Chrome the button just greys out like the Submit button.

Signed up. Hope I helped enough by giving tons of info. Hope I pick a good gift for my recipient.

Make sure you don't have any extensions blocking scripts but also your cache could be a bit stale with site versions, trying hard reloading the page.

Don't forget you can buy from a US site and get it sent directly.

I had the same issue at work using FF. went home and tried it and it worked *shrugs*.

SkeleVader

I had the same problem with the submit button. Turns out I had to go back to the main page and sign in first. After that it accepted my submission.

pureval

Yes. Please make sure you are signed in.

I ended up doing it in Incognito and that worked. Doesn't tell me what was breaking it, but at least my registration is submitted.

If you have a pop up blocker or adblock running it was probably that. I always have issues with Pinnypals due to mine.

grgemonkey

Yeah there's a lot of obstacles to jump over :P PP has zero ads, zero tracking, zero anything. Your best experience will be to whitelist it

Also there's a long standing issue where www.pinnypals.com and pinnypals.com are different sites. So you might appear logged in but you're not because you switched domains. This is a super easy redirection *normally* but for whatever reason, the PP server is extremely against it. It's also just running old old software, I've wanted to migrate it for along time to a new server but alas, that old enemy, time.

InterestingMix

Oh, that video is glorious. I think I was swaying left and right by the end of it

Yeah, I tried a different browser on a different machine and it went through. shrug

InterestingMix

Registered. Wanted to do this a few times, but now that I've met a few people in person. I'm totally up for it :-)

Kamelon

Registered. Woo! I haven't posted much for a while, but after catching up with everyone at PAX Aus and having such a great time, I'm super keen for Secret Santa

bravesaturn

I registered when it was announced but I didn't show up on the updated list, so I registered again. Hopefully this time it makes it through!

@pureval already accepted your registration, think he might of just missed you on the confirm list above but you're good, the script checks his digital accept list :P

pureval

Opps, I guess I forgot to check the list twice. Sorry @bravesaturn .

bravesaturn

Thanks for checking!

Jake Capps

When do we get names? I was afraid the email went to spam. Thank you for putting this together.

Jake Capps

Figured it out!

Devereaux

This is my first PinnyPals secret santa! My fear is that I purchase something my PinnyPal already has :?
Can't wait to see all the pics of everyone's gifts It's going to be very fun and quite interesting!!!

RILMS

Woo for Black Friday deals and buying Secret Santa gifts!

theoriginalz

Has anyone gotten their SS gifts yet?

Kinda

Ayefkay

Nope!

misskass

Someone should be getting (half of) one soooooooooon as long as it survives Australia Post.

bravesaturn

I got a gift from my Secret Santa in the mail today! There was nothing in the Amazon package other than the gift (Codenames), so thank you to the mysterious Secret Santa, whoever you are! I've thought about buying Codenames for a while, but never pulled the trigger. I'm excited to finally be able to play it this holiday season. Again, thank you, whoever you are!

RILMS

Note for my Secret Santa that I forgot to mention. I will be away from home for two weeks around Christmas, so it may take me a bit to post pictures.

2slayeru

The first day of December and I receive my Secret Santa gift from darkinfero thank you love it
also received the game Blade Ballet on Steam

PAX_Skeletor

The marvellous @vonhist gifted me a copy of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided over on Steam. Thanks Santa, can't wait to rip in to it!

vonhist

Have at it. There will be something else winging its way across the Tasman but it will be a while.

Solelron

I have received my package. Below is a the pic. Thanks to my secret santa! I'm 99% sure I know who it is but I want to be sure so I need to find the invoice again.

bravesaturn

So, this was totally crazy and unexpected, but I got MORE Secret Santa gifts! Seriously... whoever you are, you are amazing (please tell me so I can properly thank you!)

It felt like Christmas this morning when I opened up a box from Best Buy and found these 2 amiibos inside that I've been wanting! I LOVE them, and they look great.
