[soera]

Well, so far everyone seems like they are enjoying it this year so Ill do it again next year!

[desocietas]

We should let you have a chance to be surprised next year, Soera - I'm sure one of us will be happy to take over as the GM next time

[disgaeniac]

No problem. It kinda cropped up out of no where. Hopefully it becomes a yearly thing!

That sounds like a great idea! I hope it can be a yearly thing.

I concur!

I hope that I'll be able to do it next year, I guess I'll know next year whether I'll be able to or not.

Its the same as the pay it forward thread ... I like the gaming community and the games themselves more than the value of stuff. I dont mind doing this. It wasnt that bad anyhow!

[soera]

Today is the final day for shipping! If you havent gotten your item shipped, please let me know. Good luck on your gifts people. Post when you get them (and if you decide to open them early, post what you got!)

[desocietas]

Well, I got this in the mail. Santa outdid himself. This is way better looking than what I sent.



I really want to open it.  If you don't want me to open it, you better tell soera to call me off. Now the anticipation is too much.

Ha, what would be great is if there were another wrapped present inside that box.  MOAR ANTICIPATION 

[soera]

All right. Appears that everyone has shipped their gifts!!! I got at least one more update that someone has received theirs. I cant wait to see more pics of what everyone has gotten.

Nice, I can't wait to see what everyone ends up getting! I'm super torn as to if I'm going to wait until Christmas or not.

[matt]

I received part 2 of my gift over the weekend! No part 1 yet but I'm assuming that it'll arrive any day now. I'm going to wait until Xmas to open it. Will post pics. Super excited.

Don't fight it, Scott...it's hopeless & pointless 

It's not *YOU* that should be "torn" - it's the wrapping paper 

[scott]

I'm going to leave it for Christmas. I need at least something under the tree.

speaking of leaving gifts under the tree, I was wondering what other people did for gaming related xmas decorations.
I tend to take old controllers that dont work anymore drill holes in them and use them as ornaments.
would love to know what others do.

Ha!  That's pretty clever, actually.

The bf got me a tiny Charlie Brown Christmas tree - the first xmas tree I've had in a long time.  I'm looking forward to trying to put the Secret Santa gift under it (hopefully not too big!) and thinking up decorations for it.  I've never threaded popcorn together, but maybe I'll try that.

Are the controllers too heavy at all?  Or are they the older lighter ones?
