This is the official sign-up thread for the 2009 AK Secret Santa.

Secret Santa time is here again.

One of Audiokarma’s long-standing traditions is the annual Secret Santa. It is great fun, and a cool way to celebrate the holidays.

You sign up for this event, by posting to THIS THREAD ONLY. This thread will remain open until November 21st, at 9 pm, EST. Please send me an email, with the words SECRET SANTA as the subject, containing your actual name and mailing address and your AK username, to luvvinvinyl@audiokarma.org. After the thread closes, I will send everyone the name and address of their intended recipient.

The limit this year is $35, not including shipping. Please allow enough time for your gift to reach its destination by December 18th. Remember that your Secret Santa gift may have to travel to another country.

Gifts may be audio-related, but need not be so. Half the fun is reading the posts of your recipient, and picking out something special for them.

You can read about past Secret Santas in the threads in this forum. Join us in the AK holiday spirit.

Ok, so it has begun, already.

Somebody sent me an email, without posting in this thread, AND without including their AK username. Just to add insult to injury, the email is not one registered with any AK account.

You know who you are, please fill in the missing info. Thanks.

I've opted out of this ever since '05 when I shit Bart out of his gift (I had good intentions, as fotno can attest, but I just could make it happen...). Anyway, I'd like to be in this year, and I promise that my selected recipient, as well as Bart, will receive very nice gifts this year...although, I don't know what they'll be yet...
