The following people signed up for Secret Santa and did not give any gifts. If you feel that I have made an error in my bookkeeping as it were, please tell me what you sent me and I'll double-check and make sure I don't have it floating around here somewhere, since I know some of you are not the type to forget about these things. :/

Peewee
Hotty
Dreamar
Nemika
Sioux
Daperfectkill
Omniscient - quit, I and your santee thank you!
Andykiller
Brecent
Terraforce
Maiev
Varcore - quit, I and your santee thank you!
Roxxana - I'm PARTICULARLY disappointed in you because your santa went out of their way for you. You are getting NONE of the things he was going to send you.

In Varcore's defense, he's no longer really in the world of FFXI. Left about a month ago ; ;

I don't know how many times I told you guys to send it to my mule and not directly to your gift recipient. That really makes it difficult for me to keep track of who's given what to who and who's being a slacker. If you know anyone else who's listed in this thread, do me a favor and contact them to let them know they missed this.

Re: Varcore - that's all well and good, but he signed up for this under a month ago. I suppose I'll just do a little shuffling and see if I can get his santa's gift to someone else.

I havent gotten a PM yet with who I am giving a gift to. Sorry I am more than willing to do this, but I cant really send something if I dont know who its for, or what job etc. Im a bit lost.

My santa gift person slacked too.

<.<

So I was just serving the will of Karma. ^^

Seriously though I'm sorry about this, the problem with Christmas is that it always comes at Christmastime. I'm not busy on June 13, but it never comes then, oh no. ><

My appologies for slacking on secret santa it was not my intention to....i was gonna get a really nice gift...but my cable company said otherwise and i missed the deadline for it...if i can i am gonna send the gift in person...otherwise i really don't know what to do now
#12 Dec 24 2004 at 12:01 PM Rating: Decent

That seriously pisses me off. That's at least two people who signed up for this, then quit immediately afterwards (or seemingly before) and thus screwed this up. I'll start tweaking things to see what I can do.

Again, and I'm getting really sick of repeating this, BE PATIENT. ALL the people who did not send gifts are now listed in this thread. If you have not gotten a gift yet it's because I didn't get a chance to send it!

Icuras, when/if you do send something please let me know so I can check you off. Andykiller, are you officially not going to send anything now? If not, please tell me so I can work with the gifts I DO have.

Ya know, if people didn't make the deadline, they just didn't get anything. If anything, I'd send them lumps of bomb ash coal ^^

Still more presents have gone out tonight. For the most part I've rearranged people who slacked so that everyone is getting something. Unfortunately, two of the people who slacked off were sent their presents before I realized that I got nothing from them. So I'm going to get a couple more presents for their santees. Other than that, everything SHOULD be taken care of now. Once people get back to the game and start taking stuff out of their inboxes, that is.

I really can't commend you enough for your work here Byaina. If there were a way to strew rose petals at your feet in the game I would stalk you for a week doing so.

/praise Byaina

I recommend that those gifts you've had cause to withhold for the above-stated reasons you should make use of or sell yourself in order to recoup some of your expenses and perhaps some of your stress and irritation with certain participants as well.

Regarding such laxness as is discussed above I can only offer this: Extenuating circumstances I understand, but by god if you say you are going to do a thing then you should do it. It is a poor thing to be other than what you say.

/sigh

This forum is starting to really **** me off wtf did i say to get downrated.
#23 Dec 27 2004 at 11:55 AM Rating: Excellent
Just wanted to note for LadyRikku: I don't think anyone was singling you out (well until you got rated up *giggle*), it looks like a lot of the posts were rated down.
#24 Dec 27 2004 at 11:57 AM Rating: Excellent
lmfao maybe someone on the list didn't appreciate being called a slacker and is rating random ppl in this thread down indiscriminately. Smiley: tongue

Personally I'm rating the OP up, for the simple reason that Byaina put a ton of work into this event, and doesn't need any flack for it (such as being rated down).

Smiley: oyvey

Somebody is camping this thread; notice how almost all of my posts are 3.48? That's from one person rating me up (to 4.3) and someone else rating me down. It's getting on my nerves. Much like this entire event, in fact...

Sad, innit?

Sometimes I feel like this server's community is slowly being poisoned by malcontents who have given over to the urge to be trolls.

I don't think the entire event was that horrid though. The party, though small, was quite fun. ^^
