3rd Annual JediDefender Secret Santa gift exchange!

[Darth Slothus]

Sorry for the DP

Had to do some research on my own...
Came to an idea that I havn't received/heard from anyone yet since I'm #25 on the list=I'm the odd man out/probably didn't have a SS. I hope I'm wrong in assuming that otherwise it sucks I had to find that out on my own....
If I'm wrong.... then I'm waiting.....  for a pm?

Last I checked it was 4 remaining on the list

I'm pissed that Hemish didn't get my package; especially since his recipient got his. I'm not as pissed I didn't get mine but think an explanation is in order.
 

The list looks like this?
chuckles
stormie
Hemish
Slothus

only 4 out of 25 in error, I guess last years' SS was an 'almost' complete success

The last time Matt dropped into the Forums, he sent a round of PMs out to those who were slacking in sending out gifts.

I can say with 100% certainty that you do have a Secret Santa assigned to you.  I am not sure though why you (or any of the remaining guys) are still waiting... 

chuckles - still waiting?
stormie - still waiting?
Slothus - still waiting.
Hemish - box was shipped (2 months ago) but hasn't arrived

[Darth Slothus]

Ok, thanks for the update Jeff....but how was the uneven count solved?

Matt completely mixed up the lists.  The uneven count was solved something  like this:

For 5 members - A, B, C, D, E:

A has B, B has D, D has C, C has E, and E has A.

Everyone is covered even though there is an odd number of participants.

 I am not sure though why you (or any of the remaining guys) are still waiting... 

Perhaps the answer lies in a reply to my post on page 15 by a non-SS member. Or was that a humor attempt?

[stormie]

Nothing here yet, either. Though Murphy's Law dictates that it'll probably show today.

[Deanpaul]

No, I'm on the still waiting list as well.

[Darth Slothus]

whoa, whaa?

[stormie]

Other than just saying the obvious, I'll add something more.

I believe I used the term Murphy's Law incorrectly. It's supposed to mean that if anything can go wrong, it will. So, this doesn't really apply to me not receiving my SS package after I said I hadn't received anything. I don't know if there's a law/adage that refers to just this type of thing; however, I'd like to nominate "Secret Santa Law" as it's moniker.

And in case anyone wasn't able to deduce it through my verbose ramblings, I haven't received my SS package yet, either.   

[JediMAC]

No, I'm on the still waiting list as well.

****.  OK, I'll contact your Santa as well, Dp.

It sounds like Stormie's package is hopefully going out tomorrow, so stay tuned on that one Bob...

[JoshEEE]

So...we're now past Valentines and on to Easter.

Is that a record?

[Darth Slothus]

sad

[Hemish]

I think I can officially say that my gift has gone walkabout, I hope the person that took it gets boils on their buttocks and they get infected and cant sit down for ages!!!

To my santa thanks for sending the item , sorry that it went MIA.
Oh well I guess there is always this year.

[Vator]

I'm really not sure why Deanpaul hasn't gotten his present by now, I entrusted it to my parents some time ago to have it sent off.  From my understanding of the events after that time, it was sent off. I'll try to get to the bottom of it, though.

I would really like to apologize to Deanpaul in any case, however. Despite the circumstances that I've been thrust into recently and historically, there really isn't any excuse for the package not being sent off. I feel like a real jackass about the whole thing, because as I've said I find it inexcusable that it has taken so long for Dean to get his gift.

Once again Dean, I am so sorry, and hopefully your stuff is either en route or about to be sent off.

Is it being sent from this hemisphere?

Hopefully all the rain we've been getting hasn't washed it away or blurred the delivery address. I guess I'll know for sure if it's been delivered to the wrong address when I see the "inmates" from the rehab clinic down the block reenacting the battle of Hoth with my figures.  All it'll take is some cheap wine and a pack of zig-zags and those toys will be mine once again.

BTW...all this nonsensical verbage means I haven't received my gift yet.
