PH Secret Santa 2016 - The Return of the Santa

PH Secret Santa 2016 - The Return of the Santae



I believe this is now the fifth annual PH Secret Santa Thread.

2015 was another great year if I do say so myself! For some reason, in a fit of what I can only assume to be total madness, I stuck my hand up and said I'd have a crack at organising the Secret Santa AGAIN! Let's see if we can make this year better than the last!

As it seems is traditional, I'll copy & paste parts of last years thread opener + rules, although there are some slight alterations.

Basic Format:

• Starting from right now, register your interest by sending me a PM with your details on (summary of required details is in the rules below)
• Closing date for entry is 10pm on Sunday 6th November 2016
• Shortly after (the following week) you'll receive an email with your victim gift recipient's details
• Start stalking your target recipient. Checking through post history, getting to know your target, learning about them, researching Facebook, disguising yourself to follow closely etc are all part of the fun. Use your newly gained info wisely to decide on the perfect gift for your target
• Once purchased, wrap your gift and post to your target. Target spend is £10 plus P&P (Feel free to spend more if you wish)
• Drop me an email to let me know it's been dispatched
• Sit back and wait until Christmas Day when you can open your gift!

If you need to get a message to either your Secret Santa or victim giftee (got to stop doing that!), send me a PM.

Every now and again I will type out a list of anonymous messages and list who they are for. This will save people giving away their identity and revealing themselves to their SS.

PH Secret Santa 2016 Rules:

• Secret Santa, add your name to the list and then pop me a PM with your username, real name, address, a small list of likes/dislikes and whether NSFW things are acceptable (according to The Guv from previous years, nobody wants to open a box containing a dildo in front of little Johnny on Xmas morning). If you don't supply information, it'll be assumed you're happy with whatever you get!
• Anybody with allergies or things, please mention in the email
• Target spend is £10 + postage (Spending more is at the senders discretion)
• There will likely be a few international PH'ers involved. If you don't want to pay that little extra for postage please say in your email. If you are a kind hearted soul and actually want an international PH'er then please say this (there is, I believe, one or two PHers around the 'Ring/Spa etc). Any secret Santas without a preference will be used in the case there are not enough people volunteering to do it
• Closing date is 10pm Sunday 6th November. During the following week I will issue everyone an email with the details of your Secret Santa. This is a strict cut off date - if you snooze you lose I'm afraid
• Non-senders of gifts will be named and shamed & potentially suffer VBRJ - anyone have a can of red bull or some frozen sausages handy?
• If a person has specifically requested NOT to receive a certain gift (a common example being a dildo), please do not send them it - that's just not cricket
• Also, if you haven't received a gift near to Christmas let me know. Christmas mail is busy and some of the post to international PH'ers may take longer
• All record of addresses will be destroyed after secret santa is completed
• Photographs of received gifts to be posted on this thread upon opening

There may be occasional updates to the rules above, please keep an eye on them.

As I've said above, and will reiterate again, the closing date and time is the closing date and time. If you'd like to get involved then please do sooner rather than later. You have one month from now!

In the recent years we've had an extremely high percentage of success, if you are not 100% sure you can participate, then please don't sign up. If you don't deliver, you have the potential to ruin someone's Christmas! Oh, and being on the receiving end of a mob with pitchforks and torches!

If there are any issues, PM me and I'll do my best to sort it out.

I'll add a table here of all those involved in due course.

The spend is still set at £10 plus P&P. I know for a fact that most people spend more than that each year (it's easy when you get caught up in the excitement and see the absolutely perfect item online). It really is up to you how much you spend, anymore is totally at your discretion.

If I've missed anything, I'll update as/when.

There will be times I am unavailable, but it shouldn't be for more than a day or two at a time. Please bear with me as despite what you may believe, PHSS - 2016 isn't the only thing I have to do!

Let the games begin!

Cheers

The Moose

Wrapping Paper

Edited by The Moose on Thursday 10th November 00:41

[The Moose]

First post in and already fked it up

Add your name to the list please!

[The Moose]

Butter Face said:

Better? It's hard to do on my phone!!

[The Moose]

williamp said:

must resist temptation to change username to "namehere" and get loads of presents at Christmas...

That's the great thing about organising - everyone is going to get me as their victim!!!

[The Moose]

Would you believe it - everyone on the list has already sent their details in!

If you don't mind sending (and therefore also receiving) internationally, please put that in your message.

[The Moose]

As has been said, the data from the previous year has been deleted so I have no idea who got who last year.

There's no logic as to who gets paired up with who - it is a random process so in all likely hood, you'll get different people to previous years.

Having said that, I may have kept a list somewhere of who was matched with who last year so I can ensure the same match doesn't happen again this year!

So, did you not like your sender or receiver?!

[The Moose]

Nice - a sticky!!!

[The Moose]

troc said:

It would be quite something to have a couple of hundred people doing this......

Although it could take the competitive stalking to a new and dangerous level

Obviously want to get me working hard

It would be pretty cool, but I don't think there's enough people regularly on PH in general to achieve those sorts of numbers.

[The Moose]

HorneyMX5 said:

Last year my PHSS got me some Force Awakens Lego. Spot on and a hard act to follow.

If only you could get a Lego MX5!

Secret Santa always delivers!!!

[The Moose]

So, I have details of 40 people to date...

[The Moose]

nigelpugh7 said:

Hi Moose,

Sent you my details, but I don't have anything back from you?

Not sure if I have been added as part of the group?

Let me know?

Ta.

Got them thanks

[The Moose]

Just to confirm, if you received an e-mail from me you still need to add yourself to the list and e-mail through the information as before.

[The Moose]

shirt said:

yes it was. i had the email but just don't have time this year. shame as it'd likely be my only xmas present. enjoy!

It was indeed.

Don't be silly - you can get it done in 15 mins! Get involved

[The Moose]

Less than an hour to go chaps and chapesses

[The Moose]

Everyone should have now received an e-mail from me with the details of their victim recipient. If you haven't received, drop me a PM and I'll get in touch. The table below will go in the initial post of this thread (where you'll also find the wrapping paper etc).

The information in your e-mail from me may be very useful or as much use as a chocolate teapot however it’s the information provided to me by the recipient so I hope it’s of some use to you!

Please take note of the information. If someone has specifically requested NOT to receive the anal invader 3,000 then please don’t send such a thing. Also, if someone has said they’re allergic to nuts, please don’t send an envelope full of peanuts! This just wouldn’t be in the spirit of Christmas.
 
I hope you are happy with your allocated person. If there are any issues, please email me and mention you have done so in the SS16 thread.
 
If you require additional information about your person, email me and I will ask. This maintains the anonymous part of the fun.
 
I will post updates in the thread and feed through information to your SS on your behalf. Please check the thread regularly.



P.S. It's not like I gave everyone in the table me as their Secret Santa

Happened to be sat at the PC when I got the email and couldn't resist a quick stalk.

Cheers again Moose, looking forward to it all.

I've just 'pulled the trigger' on the gifts for my victim.

[The Moose]

So, as per the tradition, here is the first of these. Sounds like a good start to me!!

MESSAGES OF THE DAY

Dan_1981: Have you ever been to Hooters?

This stalking malarky is scary.

I need to limit my online profile obviously.

Yes. Yes I have, but I suspect my stalker already knows this.....

I can't help but wonder if this needs an it more explanation for the group to enjoy...

[The Moose]

MESSAGES OF THE DAY

Dan_1981: what size t shirt are you?

HorneyMX5: What size t shirts do you wear? I hope you don't mind being inCognito (geddit?)
