I'm gonna do my hunting tomorrow after work. I'm hoping I can find something good at the game stores in the tri-city area.

I sent out my package a few days ago. :-) I'm glad to have the opportunity to participate.

Updating sent list : Myself, Burningdoom, Disgaeniac, and Quanchi. If anyone else has mailed yet, let me know. Going to update the first post too.

Get up off of my package, man - you're all over it 

[burningdoom]

Just curious about this. Is the person you're sending to, the person that is also sending to you?

[scott]

Hmm I didn't think about that. But I doubt it would be?

[desocietas]

I'm sure Soera tried to mix it up a little since there were enough of us.  But it's totally possible!

I *think* that's how Soera worked it out; by pairing people together...

[desocietas]

But then we'd know who our SS was... because we'd be *their* SS.  No anonymity!

[soera]

Actually only one pair got matched up with each other. Everyone else has totally different buyers than the person they are buying for.

Oh ok.  Well that still keeps the mystery alive, then

I'm thinking that everyone's going to know who their secret santa is anyway - just by looking at the return address on their packages; no?

My Secret Santa will definitely know. I wrote a small letter that I put in mine.

I think it more has to do with the fact that you don't know who it is until the package arrives. Rather than being completely anonymous and top secret.

Yup, that's what I meant.  I'm planning on including a little note or something, too.  But it's part of the surprise to not know until it gets to you!
