The Third Annual LRR Forum Secret Santa! (CLOSED)

[Tapir12]

Kapol, just get something they can't possibly have, like something you've made yourself!

TAPIR12 CONFIRMED

I watch a lot of anime and classic movies but I don't play video games or watch any TV. My favourite anime series are Monster, Haibane Renmei and Juuni Kokki. I knit, throw pots, play card games and play piano. I like to explore other cultures and travel and I volunteer as the Africa coordinator for a local NGO.

I don't mind chipping in a couple bucks extra, but I also don't have a paypal account (or if I did, I haven't used it in years).

EDIT: I like sweet things but I don't like nuts or peanut butter

[gcninja]

GCNINJA CONFIRMED
Xbox 360 gamer (mostly shooters, CoD, Halo, asscreed)
Magic the gathering player and Yugioh as well. Love me doctor who and anime in general. That's about it

Did I miss it or is there no link yet to the account?

[Phailhammer]

Phailhammer: CONFIRMED

I'm a 19 (nearly 20)-year-old Australian and finished up my Games Development Diploma this year. I'm primarily a PC gamer, and tend to stick to the strategy side of things, genre wise. Some of them tend to fit in with my liking of alternate history scenarios. I also enjoy anime and manga (favourites include Higurashi and Durarara!!).

[Pikachaos]

Pikachaos: CONFIRMED

I'm a freshmen in college. I love tiny versions of things. I'm a gamer who is a total Nintendo fangirl. I hate the color purple. I love any useless or useful trinket from Think Geek. I LOVE DOCTOR WHO and other things like anime and Firefly. I'm also an artist, digital and fine. I also love anything cute. Also the stars, I love the universe. <3 <3 I don't care what you get me, as long as it's filled with love. :3

[JustAName]

I hate the color purple.

YOU ARE DEAD TO ME. DEAD.

[Pikachaos]

I hate the color purple.

YOU ARE DEAD TO ME. DEAD.

D: I like it in certain contexts. I just have a bad association with it because this girl who hated me in high school made that her color and everything she owned was purple. >_<

[JackSlack]

No Cadbury chocolate for Pikachaos. Check.

[The Mimm]

THE MIMM: CONFIRMED

I am a 21 year old Drama graduate. I like Japanesey things and cutesy things, and have a major nerd on for 90s cartoons and voice actors. Animaniacs, Freakazoid, that sorta thing. I like puns more than I should and make my own sketch comedy with the guys over at WhatHaveYouComedy.


also, dun' worry, I have really low standards.

[Geoff_B]

GEOFF_B: CONFIRMED

I'm a PC gamer and sci-fi/fantasy fan. I love all things Batman, Gundam, Final Fantasy and cool gadgety-like things. And Lego. I like me a bit of Lego occasionally. Can't think of much else to say really. Probably best to avoid DVDs as I have too many already. Also no clubs please (you know who you are!)

Oh yeah and I really really like J-Pop. Move, Stereopony, L'Arc-En-Ciel, Chiaki Ishikawa, Nana Mizuki, all good stuff

Oh and try and keep it clean please

[Elomin Sha]

I don't care what you get me, as long as it's filled with love. :3

I don't think my gifts of fire have much love in them, but there is always the thought.

[Geoff_B]

Yeah Elomin takes all those songs about lighting fires in your heart literally.

[TheRocket]

Being from Korea is even MORE of a reason to join in! I love expanding our little forum gift exchange to new parts of the world!

GC Minaj, No I did not put up the link yet. I didn't know if it would be a well recieved idea or if people would be all like...



Kapol, do you mean whatever you get someone else will be disappointing, or what you recieve?

A good way to stretch out your dollar like many have been doing is local candies!

I won't worry about the paypal till we get closer to the cut off date, don't worry!

[PlasmaCow]

Indeed, last year I sent Tapir12 some scottish tablet (sort of a dry crumbly fudge) along with a book.

[Keab42]

Keab42: CONFIRMED

I am a website tester and occasional coder by profession. A self-confessed nerd. My hobbies include PC Gaming, photography and baking, but most of all I love reading, especially sci-fi and fantasy.

[Tapir12]

Indeed, last year I sent Tapir12 some scottish tablet (sort of a dry crumbly fudge) along with a book.

AND IT WAS DELICIOUS!

(I like to eat books)

One could say, you consume knowledge.
Also, rocket. I didn't know I was fat black and bubbly.

[Drdiggit42]

A good way to stretch out your dollar like many have been doing is local candies!

I sent Yoshi_Gal a mix of peanut candies last year (She said she like peanuts in her description.). You just have to make sure, if you're shipping to Australia, to insulate the package very well. If I hadn't, I'm sure it would've melted since Christmas is in the Summer for the Southern Hemisphere.

[Metcarfre]

Maybe if people are super allergic to something should mention that in their posts.

[King Kool]

I'm allergic to when you walk down a hallway and someone starts coming down the same way, and you move to the other side of the hallway, and they move to the other side, too, and you both try to move back at the same time.

So does the asphyxiation and unconsciousness help diffuse the awkwardness?

[Vanguard]

Let's aim for three strait years of handing out awesome gifts!

Vanguard: CONFIRMED

I'm a freelance photographer, a writer of sorts and generally one of those overly opinionated and outspoken artsy types. My sense of humor teeters somewhere between the dry and sarcastic to the outright absurd. I like creative things and working with my hands in general. I'm a fairly avid gamer and I'm willing to try just about any game or genre at least once. Not much of a reader anymore, but as of late I seem to have developed a habit of collecting books that look interesting. Extra income permitting, my girlfriend and I have been known to play with LEGOs because we apparently have the maturity of twelve year olds.

If you'll excuse me, I need to start making room in my budget...

[Kapol]

Kapol, do you mean whatever you get someone else will be disappointing, or what you recieve?

I'm saying that I think whoever I get something for will be disappint, not that I will be. Mostly because I have no idea what to get anyone. There's nothing local I can get and nothing I can really make myself. But I'll still likely do it just to disappoint whoever gets my gift.

Small idea for those who play Magic. It may be worth noting your favorite colors/what type you play in case someone ends up deciding to give you a card or something instead of a pack. Just a thought. *shrug*

If I get you I'm going straight to a book store to get you a dictionary.

[Geoff_B]

How about a jacket?

I have a 1897 illuminated oxford dictionary that was an awesome gift. although it cost a few pennies more than $10 I assume.
