So I finally went and checked my delivery box this morning and my Secret Santa gifts (yeah gifts O.O)were there. All I can say is wow. Whoever you are, Thank-you!! You gave more than I deserve.

Huge shout out to Byaina for organizing this thing... Great Job!
Thanks to Nata for trying to keep Byaina sane by posting FAQ answers.
Thanks to all the participants.
And I'm sorry I couldn't make it out for the bash. My little sister turned 29 and I couldn't miss it. Mmmm Chinese Buffet.

Merry Christmas everyone.

You beat me to it Garan :(

I got my gift at the gathering but I havent been able to get online until today (why does work always have to get busy when you're waiting for a long weekend so you're not in the mood to do anything??)

Anyway, I need to say a HUGE THANK YOU to the person who bought my gift (I'm still in shock lol)

That was way beyond what I even imagined and I wish I could find out who you are to say thank you personally but this will have to do.

so again, THANK YOU SO MUCH :)

(And a big thanks to Byaina for, once again, stepping up and organizing another great event)

Woot. :) Thanks to my SS too even though (unfortunately) I know who they are. ^^;;; Oh well. Presents are still going out every time someone clears out a space in my inbox, so keep looking!

ps thanks nata >>

My gift that I got for someone else is still taking up a slot in my outbox. Thanks for my gift, Secret Santa, but I feel bad because at least one person who contributed didn't get anything. :( I guess I'll just take it out of the outbox and send it directly to the person.

It's still in your outbox because Byaina's inbox is choked full of gifts that she doesn't yet have room for in her inv or mog safe.

I'd recommend just leaving it there. She'll get to it. ^^

Byaina, if you need some space, you're welcome to borrow some of my mules.

Just shoot me a tell sometime tonight, I'm off to work now.

I heard from a little bird somewhere that your Secret Santa's thrilled that you're happy with things. ;)

I need to check my delivery box when I get home - I was job interviewing last night and didn't log on. (Wish me luck, I've got a possible 2nd interview tomorrow!!)

Byaina, if you need to borrow my mule, you're welcome to her. ^^

Exactly right. I sent out a new slew of gifts last night and only four of them had been removed as of 15 minutes ago. C'mon guys, help me out :(

I'm just going to assume a Scorpion Harness is too valuable to send via the mail and thats why I haven't goten my gift yet.

Not that I really care;

Merry Christmas evertyone.

It says this in the original thread, but I'm just going to repeat it here to be totally clear:

Byaina is SWAMPED with gifts right now and is sending them out as fast as she can. If yours hasn't been picked up or delivered, BE PATIENT - she knows to get them and deliver them.

Please people. No more posts about not getting gifts. Byaina is doing her best. Remember some people have gone away for the holidays and may not have been able to empty their delivery boxes. This will cause a bottle neck.

On that note, perhaps to expediate the delivery process, Byaina you could remove gifts from your outbox if they have not been picked up within a 24hr timeframe and send someone elses. If people ARE away on holiday, no sense having their gifts bunging up the works for two weeks.

Just a suggestion, don't know if you're already doing this. :)

Not a bad idea Garan. And I think I'll start moving stuff onto my main to send out since people are being so slow, blah.

I made a whole thread called "Secret Santa paging Sereg," lol. I'll probably just have to do it by process of elimination. Thanks for letting me know about Varine, btw.

I'm bumping this (late, I know, but I was away from FFXI for the holidays) to say a HUGE Thank You to my Secret Santa. I love it, love it, love it, and can't thank you enough.
