TLS Sekrit Santa 2016

[Joe]

Yes I know it's November shut up.

I know this has been present previous years and I can't help but feel like we have the most awesome active users right now.
The premise is simple. If you want to take part then make a post in this thread saying so. In that post you can also list your interests outside of FF or particular parts of the FF series. For example:

Joe's Interests: FFX, FFXII, FFIX, FFXIV. Love Bahamut, Gilgamesh & Alexander. Love Anime (Gurren Lagann, Fate Stay/Night, Re:Zero) and Invader Zim is the best. Also Mass Effect <3

That gives your gifter some ideas. FYI those actually are mine ^

I'll make a list of all those people wanting to take part and then close it in a month, giving people their secret santa and all of December to figure out gifts.
I figure there shouldn't be a limitation on gifts but please don't spend thousands of dollars on people. We don't deserve it Handmade gifts are also awesome.


Taking part:
Joe realised I can't assign myself one
Flare
Lex
Octo
Carlie
Jason Tandro
Channy
RedFFWolf
Lith
Kionae
Tennyo
Kimble

 

[Flare]

Oh I love this idea <3 I'll take part!

Here's some of my main interests:

FFVII, FFIX, FFX, FFXII. Bahamut, Chocobos, FF game weapons. Legend of Zelda, Skyrim/Oblivion, and Mass Effect.
Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter.
Also I love dragons. <3 Geode rocks and succulent plants, for non-nerdy subjects.

So is the secret Santa chosen randomly once the list is closed?

 

[Joe]

Yeah you'll find out who you get 1st December, I guess. I'll use some sort of random number generator to assign them.

 

[Lex]

fine

 

[Octo]

I dunno guys, I have a seriously low budget and anything handmade I make is gonna suck balls and...

It's triggering all my English awkwardness if money is involved with no limit y'know?

Sorry to be a bummer like

 

[Joe]

Idk would people feel comfier with a limit? It certainly makes no big difference to me. Any suggestions?

 

[Octo]

I'll defer to whatever the majority decides

I reckon I could spend about £20.

 

[Flare]

Makes no difference to me either, I'm fine with no technical limit and also fine with $20-$25 limits or something. I personally wouldn't be able to spend much either anyhow, if I bought something.

 

[Lex]

I'm OK with no limit but would like to point out that the difference between $20 and £20 is astronomical.

 

[Joe]

Well, not right now it's not.
(Source: Just visited the US and the £ is weaker than I've ever seen it)

As a soft limit why don't we say between £5-£40 (or $6 to $50). I think spending about £25 was what I had in mind personally

 

[Flare]

I'm OK with no limit but would like to point out that the difference between $20 and £20 is astronomical.

That's why I said $20-$25 for my end, to compensate for the difference (in regards to Octo's post, 20 pounds is basically 25 dollars)

Honestly I don't think anyone would feel weird getting a small gift vs. a big one (money-wise). I mean it's all about giving because you want to anyhow so no need to feel pressured into trying to spend a lot of money on a gift. Again I'm fine with a limit.

 

[Lex]

OK but let's not immortalise the crashing pound thing, a very short time ago 20 quid was 30 dollars and shortly before that it was almost 40 and it'll recover... eventually... maybe not...

 

[Joe]

God I hope so.

Does that mean you're in Octo? <3

 

[Carlie]

Yes I know it's November shut up.

Is November. Love you Joe. <3

Well I've been on this site for 7 years so I guess is about time I participate in one of these things.

Things I love (my absolute favorites will be in bold letters):

- Dragon Age

- FFIX

- FFXII

- Mass Effect

- Kingdom Hearts

- Farscape

- Uncharted

- ATLA

- ASOIAF

I especially love these things with lesbians on it.

 

[Octo]

God I hope so.

Does that mean you're in Octo? <3

Er.....yeah ok. I'll have to think about what I like though. I'm fickle

 

[Jason Tandro]

I have a two year old and a crappy job. I could do like... a hug.

But naw, Something in the $20 range sounds about right for me. I guess I could just ship it to whomever from like Amazon if that'd be cool?

Either way, count me in.

Vile vile porn
Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X, Zelda, The Elder Scrolls, Metal Gear Solid
Magic: The Gathering , Final Fantasy XIV (if you play, you can straight up give me Xmas Gil, lol!)

 

[Channy]

Count me in.

And may I point out that my dollar is weaker than all y'alls, so shut it.

I like cheese.

 

[Carlie]

Well if one of you ladies gets me and doesn't want to spend money I guess we could exchange n00dz. I'm selfless like that.

 

[Cthulhu]

more like pantsless amirite

 

[Jason Tandro]

Well if one of you ladies gets me and doesn't want to spend money I guess we could exchange n00dz. I'm selfless like that.

Tis better to give nudes than to receive nudes.

Hey, I think I found a new slogan for Chatroulette.

 

[RedFFWolf]

Sounds fun - been a while since I've done a Secret Santa. I'm crap at staying within budget; so, if it looks like I've overdone it, take it that I've shopped around really well ('cause I ain't half bad at shopping). I'll get back to edit this post later with interests but, sure, for now count me in

 

[Octo]

Ok so er, I had a think

I likes:

The Hobbit - ok, pretty much only Fili and Thorin
Shovel Knight
Zelda
Alien
Blade Runner

Artists: Alan Lee, Brian Froud, PJ Lynch, Arthur Rackam, Alphonse Mucha - but tbh anything similar to these guys is also good.

Sketchbooks
Art and crafty stuff
Depleted Uranium

Weird crap - I can't really be more specific.

Oh and this might seem terribly rude of me, but I gotta say it, for the love of God don't get any of them Funko figures, my brother has them and I can't stand their dead eyes. Other than that though I'm really not that fussy

 

[lithiumkatana17]

Haven't posted much lately because of school, but I'll take part in this too.

 

[Joker]

Hmmmm. I need more information before I'm willing to commit to this.

 

[Joe]

Thread bump. I'll be closing and assigning people their people in a couple weeks. Get involved if you're not already.
