Ho Ho Ho!

So far, we have 18 folks signed up... if you haven't sent me your details, please do so (check the 2nd post for specifics)

Also, How about we close the registration of Santas the 15 of November.  That should give everybody time to assemble the packages, and mail em out.  Mail can be notoriously slow at Christmas time, so the sooner the better.  When you mail your package, let me know and I can tell your gift-ee its on the way.

Ok!  They are all out!

I sent them via the PM system here at the forum, so check your mail box!

Again, for record keeping, if you didn't get an address, please let me know via PM.  If there was a mistake (I sent you your OWN address) let me know.  I was pretty thorough, and its a bit more difficult making matches than it seems (we have participants from Alaska to Spain).  I used the criteria of
Same Country
Same Continent
Same interest

Best of luck, PM me when you mail out your package so I can inform the giftee its on the way.  Also, when you get your gift, you don't have to wait.  Open it, photo it, and post it up here!

Cheers!

PS
Apologies to the player who drew my name.  Somebody gets stuck with the organizer, so it won't be a surprise.  I hope you still enjoy playing though!

Went to the local shop and told the manager about our game. He got very enthousiast and helped me excited to find me some really cool bits. Really should have talked to him more on previous visits, as he showed me a part of the shop I hadn't ever seen before; turns out they got more mini's than I ever knew (My wallet cried silently as it realised the future may be full of visits to the shop..)

Left the shop with  a really cool miniature from a brand I hadn't ever heard of before to add to my lead pile. I wont give any information whether or not I bought something for my 'Secret Santa victim', as that has to be kept secret right? :D

Long story short, I really enjoy this game so far!!

Having a lot of fun with this exchange. I'm using all kinds of stuff and ideas to include in the package. I hope to send it by Monday.

Santa told me your package is in the mail... regardless of whether you have been "bad" or "good" this year.

Santa has visited me early. Very pleased with what he's left me. I'd already started removing parts from the sprues before remembering to get a pic.



Thanks Santa
