I just wanna shout out to Kendrik and all the bunnies for being super cool people.
Thanks you guys! you rock!
Just an FYI so I don't get tagged as a deadbeat bunny (:P), it'll probably be mid-March before I get the package out. I've already acquired part 1, but I need a payday before I get part 2 and can get everything shipped.
I'd just like to thank Jam for the time he's been putting into this.
With his help we'll make sure to punish the deadbeats and put this baby to bed.
So who do I need to ban?
The list from the other page is final.
I'm frightened to be condemning them based on the word of others and my scribbled notes but then they have all been posted publically for a while now and none have said anything.
I'm only sorry I took so long to get what appears to be such a simple task sorted! Real Life happenings always hit when you take these things on. Thankfully my happening was in a 'new (hopefully) awesome job' form so I won't complain.
'tis the law of the land! Deadbeat Santa's get booted from the community.
I'll also be keeping an eye out for alts. Some of the people on the list haven't posted here since November.
Apparently he did make an attempt to send something, but it never shipped. After that, nothing. I'm not sure if that mitigates anything, but I'd feel bad about banning somebody for good over me without the facts being laid out.

people knew their responsibility long before they signed up.. shipping snaufu aside, people that shipped very late due to scrounging up money, etc were really in over their heads.
There really was no excuse to START shipping your gift at the end of december.
Wow, that's not many deadbeats with how many signed up. I think Easter Bunnies are pretty appropriate considering the amount of Kinder Eggs that were given out this year.
I never did figure out who sent me that really nice copy of the Mario Galaxy guide. I guess I just had a modest Santa.

Yeah, ban 'em. (Unless they've made a pretty good excuse I suppose)
I'm pretty annoyed that my santee is sitting at home with stuff including An ant nest, instant snow and even a thing you fit over your tap, that lights up the water blue or red depending on the temperature, and in return he did nothing for no one.
Decent read? Surely you jest! Old Man's War is the best Military Sci-Fi since Starship Troopers! Now, you immediately apologize to John Scalzi for that sacrilege. Right now, mister.
I would like to send out a big easterTHANKYOU to Judge-z
I received my present
Now to devour these like little chocolate eggs.
You are most welcome! I hope you find yourself in the camp of people who enjoy Assassin's Creed - and if not, at least you didn't pay for it yourself! Sorry I didn't take more time to cyber-stalk you properly and track down gifts that were more tailored to you, but I felt that time was of the essence as you had been waiting long enough!

The funny thing is that I bought Assassin's Creed 3 weeks ago and it's still unwrapped (Lost Odyssey picked up at the same time) but I only had a 14-day return to the store. No biggie as I don't like lending games to friends but now this is my loaner copy. As for the stalking Hughtron told me he got the Heroes graphic novel for me, I just never received it and never heard from him since January.
They can dispute the bans with me. Some of them haven't been back to the boards since November, though.
I wasn't disputing anything, I just thought it was funny. I think I looked at everyone and he's the only one who has posted more than 2 or 3 times since the secret santa signups anyway. Regardless of that, he still hasn't posted since early January.
Sorry for the delay, Round. I was at a Hotel with pay-for-internet, and as a poor college student... well, I didn't have internet. Sorry for the delay, and thanks again!
EDIT: So I just realized that we are state-buddies. High Five for PA!
Anyone notice how some things (mattresses and the copy machines in Highrise) are totally impenetrable? A steel wall, yeah that makes sense, but bullets should obliterate copy machines.
I don't know about you, but I always buy a bullet proof printer. Its a lot more expensive, but I think the advantages are apparent.

Your internet lameness will result in me sending poison candy.
Your high fives will result in me sending the antidote. so, like, bonus.

Just picked up Old Man's War based purely on what I'd read in this thread, and it is indeed awesome. 114 pages in and I just picked it up during my lunch hour.

Our town tried one of those last 4th of July.
People were bitching in the papers until December.
Thanks for the offer but I think we're ok now.
I think.
PS You guys are all great, I can't say that enough.

everyone.
Dust off and nuke it from orbit, its the only way to be sure.

So no excuse. If they don't bother to even log into the forums since November, they don't care.
Damn right. It's not like it was made abundantly clear.
Flay 'em alive, Accualt.
Why, even with a few deadbeats, we're down to the last few man (and women, one would assume), and bunny gifts are already going out.
I love you guys.
GROUP HUG!
Yeah, ban 'em. (Unless they've made a pretty good excuse I suppose)

2009 is a year of Updates - one every Monday. Hopefully. xx

Still maybe my Santee is afraid of water, ants and snow, and was so annoyed with his presents that he refused to post his own.
(Protip: Snow is another form of water fact fans)

Hughtron was my santee in 2006. I remember he loved my gift and also being an awesome santa last year.
Say it aint so Hughtron!

It's not as impressive as the gift I got Tycho, but hopefully you will enjoy them!
