I got my name sent to me today, and I am please with this years pick. Atleast I know it will be better than last year. No newb for me :)
 
Yup mine too, poor guy! :p:D

Actually I've got some really good ideas this year. :cool:

Well you may not be shipping a present to a newb, but you may get a gift from one.
 
I'm not quite sure why, but there were quite a few people who didn't fill out what they wanted and just left it blank. Like I said before, it is your call. You're Santa, you give the gifts! :D I had one person wanting hookers.. so .. as long as she has a pac-man shirt on, by all means send her away. LMFAO
 
Done with my secret santa shopping... this was much easier than last year (the guy I got last year just had a generic "art" request).
 
I got a person I don't know. Man, I was hoping to get a vet that I could prank with a Phet themed item! (On top of a real present of course.)

Oh well, at least this person participates and has a handful of games I can choose from to theme my present.
 
My guy didn't list anything. I'll have to go thru his posts to see if he's looking for somethign special. If not, there are a couple things I've got in mind.
 
I got a blank want list as well, so let's see...Neo Geo credit display PCB (untested), hmmm....cracked NBA Jam marquee, and, oh yeah, trashed and cut up MK3 conversion artwork. Sounds about right, lol. And maybe a bent Midway coin door coin bezel too. Looks like someone stuck a screwdriver in there, Yeah, that'll make someone's day.

My want list was not very long or specific, because I'm pretty laid back about what gets sent, and I've never taken part in this before, so I am interested to see how it goes so I know what to get together for next year.
 
Hmm, well I imagine you guys got someone in the US. I got someone out of the country. Not a problem except for shipping and the time it will take. Add to that I got a generic 'parts' request.

Note to everyone for next year. Be specific or be disappointed!

Seems Santa is testing me this year. Ah well, I'm up for a challenge.

Really, what can you get someone that has no list of games that you can look up on here, no informative previous posts about what games they have, and a list that lacks any sort of direction? Spare parts?

Maybe everyone should post what games they have? Of course, this isn't an issue for folks who actually filled out the 'want' section. I would have to wonder about the level of commitment of those that didn't fill it out...

Obviously though, it was probably an oversight on most folk's part. Those people who think they might have left it blank should post a list of their owned games here.

Oh, I'm not bitching. I think it's cool we have folks from around the globe here. However I was late last year and really wanted to make sure I got this year's gift there on time. I think I'm going to have to get on it this week but it will probably have to be a local buy as I don't think I have time for shipping.
