Alright, cool. Deadline for signups is the 26th and I'll get assignments out a couple days after that. Won't be that day though, I've been working 10-11 hour days lately.

Hopefully, I get someone who likes ...
- spherical key caps
- Cherry G80-3000 keyboards
- Cherry ML keyboards
- Cherry PCBs with brown or black switches
- Cherry MX switches
- Cherry mice
- Matias switches
- currently useless PCBs in various sizes without a plate or case ...

Not yet, give me a day or so to get stuff sorted out. Got some other real life related things to deal with first.

Naw, it's going to be tomorrow at the latest. Trying to find a dumb DMV form so I can get some licensing stuff sorted out. Last trip they didn't mark that I had it for whatever reason and now I can't find it.

The fodder on my target is lacking. Maybe I should call his mother and ask?

That's a lot of the fun. We've got some lurkers here who join in, myself included. I only really post around this time of year (secret santa, DT club, DTA, etc).

Well this Secret Santa's gift has already been in motion for about a week so they better not post that they're allergic to 75% BeamSpring APL keyboards

Step 2: Select possible things to put into Secret Santa package
Step 3: Receive assignment
Step 4: Stalk
Step 5: Select completely different possible things to put into Secret Santa package.

Sure. I think I got assigned to only one Secret Santa this year by mistake. Ask Compgeke to add you to the list :lol:

:)) I guess I'll pass this year and be more prepared the next one :) I realized it takes a bit of time to find out + get + send the perfect gift, especially here.

Looking forward to see what you guys get.

Good luck !

I need to stop joining these, as I really have everything I could ever want, except the 2 or so super rare super expensive boards I probably will never own ;0

Yeh I get what you mean, I hope I get something I've never tried before though, that's always exciting!

I assume it's OK that the recipient will be able to easily figure out from whom the package is since I'm the only user sending something from my country and my address will be on the package :P.
