Shit Creek is flooding outside in Uganda at the moment (literally, right now, outside) so I'm just going to fire off a half-assed post explaining things you already know.

... in fact, I'm so lazy that I used the search function and copied last year's instructions below. To wit:

Things ima ask you to do:
1) By Thanksgiving, PM me your name (additionally, boards name optional), address, and any description, guidelines, allergies, clothing sizes, or generally useful information you'd like to include. Please, to make it easier on me, just do it exactly like this:

Name (boardsname)
Address Line 1
Address Line 2
Size L, allergic to peanuts and Harry Giles' face.

2) Wait patiently for me to assign you, via PM, someone for whom you secretly Santa. I know this is hard. I'll send out messages after Thanksgiving.

3) Shop for your Santa, make crafts, send in special requests to Etsy, whatever. The guideline in years past has been something like $25, including shipping. By no means feel obligated to stick to that, so long as you don't short change your Santee.

4) Try to get your shit mailed by, say, Dec. 15th? That seems reasonable?

5) When you receive your Secret Santa's gift-in-a-box, enjoy! Post photos! Tell us about it! Wheeeeeeee!

Things ima ask you to not do:
1) Sign up late. You have until and through Thanksgiving Day. That's like, two weeks. So much time.

2) "Sign up" on the thread (i.e. IN!) and never send me a PM and then wonder why you haven't received an assignment.

3) Fucking sign up and then not do it. Just do it.

Cause then we're all like:

So that's it. Cheers, all! Happy holidays!

IN! BTW, Chicdeac gave me a Lego coffee mug last year and EVERYONE at work is fascinated by it. It's quite the conversation piece.
 
In. Have all this time to hunt something good!
 
So in! I've had the best Santees, every year.

E: And since DF posted a pic...

"You're an old" moment of realization:

This is the 5th Secret Santa on OGBoards.
 
2015 Secret Santa!

Screw it, why not

Just need to remember to PM when I'm not on tapa
 
Thanks for the sticky, COD. I'm going to start updating the first post with a list of those people I have in my super-secret, technologically-advanced Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

So, if your name's not there, you aren't IN.
 
In, but I forgot to put my boards name beside my real name. Hopefully from the PM you'll be able to figure out who it is...
