Good news I got my secret Santa gifts today. I'm at least going to wait until I get a new tripod mount for my phone before I unwrap the gifts. Opened the actual box though since as usual USPS had to put their trademark obligated NICE BIG DENT IN THE BOX! So all I ended up seeing was some candy and that's it no damage to any of the wrapping that I see. So yes I am planning on uploading a video of it. Unfortunately internet is a little too crap around here to be livestreaming it.

I think the "video opening night" will be on the 20th, if you'd like to join.

Mine arrived today.  Are we looking at the 20th as a hard date for the group opening?  If so, what time?

We didn’t want it to be that late but some folks still need some time for their packages to arrive.
Yep. Mine hasn't arrived. And, looking at the first page, it looks like there are a few folks left that need to send theirs.

Hopefully all will be ready to go by the 20th. It should be fun.

What time is it usually?  20th should be fine, depending on the time.

Add me to the list of "SENT" and I think I received? I got a box the other day with my address and no name with no return address? I thought it might be the roommate's and he opened it to find games inside but nothing that was on my wish list so I dunno?  :o

If nothing shows up in the next week or so I'll assume that's my SS gift.

Uhh.. surprise games are cool, but hopefully you get something that you actually wanted! I usually hope that folks write "VGC Secret Santa" or something in the return address area so that it's obvious who it's from...

My package arrived today! I was able to take the label off without looking at who it was so the suprise is still maintained for the podcast  ;D

Niiiiice.

If mine doesn't arrive by showtime, I'll still be there to watch the fun.

Should still be a good time.

Ive been pretty bad at updating this. Im exhausted from just general life. Anyhow ....

Is there anyone that has yet to receive their gift? Or anyone who is on the fence as to whether the gift they got was indeed from their santa?
