Secret Santa 2013 - The year Santa gives everyone Coal Golems

[Dan Turner]

I know this is earlier by a couple weeks then we normally start sign ups but I have noticed people having issues when there is only a month to gather cards and ship so i decided it would be better to start earlier so everything can start to be shipped out by mid November.


Post if you are interested just PM me an address to add to the list. People will be pared based upon continent unless they are willing to ship international. Each person will have a number next to their name and I will use a random number generator to pair people up.
Rules:

it sucks but we have to have them.

This is for fun, no one is required to participate but we have had a ton of fun every year since at least '09

1.) We ask a min of $20 in Legacy playable or something from the person's wish list. You are not required to send more than that and don't feel pressured by package envy. (Wondering if this may need to be updated? Even 20 Zendikar full art lands meet this now days) I use Blacklotusproject.com for pricing, this way everyone is on an equal basis if we all use the same source.

2.) Try to ship in a timely manner, if not at least keep in communication.

3.) No spoilers (I know I am guilty of this since I love to brag about what I send)

4.) Try to keep your wishlist realistic if I get you and you have nothing but $100+ cards listed your getting a playset of STP and Dark rituals with a Random $10 Legacy rare and a Vizzerdrix.

5.) Have fun


6.) I know I am missing something


Just post your wishlist in this thread

Reserved for sent / received list

[Whippoorwill]

Definitely in again (International). Will edit in a wishlist later.

Wishlist:
-Foil Black (or Artifact) card signed by you. (Can be ANYTHING I don't already have listed below)

I'm slowly building a Mono Black EDH deck using only signed cards given to me or traded for. So far I have (that I can remember):
Ahsling, the Extinguisher
Chimney Imp
Sign in Blood
Ravenous Demon
Skeletal Scrying

I like all languages, but mainly use Japanese and Korean when possible. I also try to avoid foils for Legacy, but use them in EDH.

So no real wishlist from me aside from the signed card.

[Phelix]

Im in, international.

also fixing wishlist in this place sometime soon.

[Einherjer]

Yupyup, In. Who is the one organizing this for Europe?

Greetings

Wishlist:
I'd love to receive a playset of Stoneforge Mystic OR Swords to Plowshares OR Counterbalance. I obviously own those cards, but it would awesome if I'd receive some special version of them. This obviously does not mean japanese foil! I am happy with everything that isn't just plain normal. I'd really like them to be altered! Whether you do it on your own or comission someone you know / someone more professional is totally up to you! Well, this is my wish, though I am happy with anything creative too!

[mini1337s]

I'm in! I'm in Canada.

Wishlist:
Unlimited Rares in decent shape! Trying to finish off the set. Stuff like Cockatrice, Mahomati Djinn, etc. A Bad Moon or an Armageddon would be sick!
Also trying to build Legacy Goblins. Looking for the small stuff, uncommons and such, like Warchief, Goblin Lackey, Matron, etc.
Trying to put together a new Nekasur EDH deck. Anything fun for that would be awesome!
When in doubt, cool basics!

EDIT: Not picky with language. Not a fan of Italian or Portuguese, cool with everything else.
EDIT 2: Realized this was from September!

[joretapo]

I missed that last year, i was just back into mtg, this time i m in. i m in europe an can ship in europe or the US

Edit for wishlist :
The wishlist contains stuff i d like to have, there are expensive cards along with very cheap ones, this way santa can pick what he can/wishes to send. It is intended as a guideline, i won t be disapointed if santa has a great idea and throws the list away.
i do not really care for foil or language. Native language is nice as these cards will be special.
I put the number of cards missing to complete my playset before the name of the card, when there is no number before the card name, it means i have 0 of the card.

I'm only missing stifle to make tempo decks, (and goyf but i don t care for him i can do without this green dollar stack, young pyro is good for me :) )
I'd like to build omnishow but i am missing a lot of expensive pieces.
I m not too far from reanimator.

A request to people posting wishlists:

Please mention if you like foreign cards or not and if so, what languages. I know there's some out there who don't like foreign cards, so I'd rather send out cards in the preferred language if possible.

Reigns of Power
Capsize
Boomerang
Vedalken Orrery or Leyline of Anticipation
Blasphemous Act

For legacy I'm would like three german brainstorm from Ice Age. Furthermore any legacy staples are welcome. My main color is black, followed by green and blue, so anything in those colors is appreciated!

[Wirrsturm]

I am interested. Last year was fun. I can do international shipping if someone is needed to even out pairings.

Wishlist:
Playable Legacy, Vintage, or EDH cards in German
And/or foils of any of the above
Or just german cards.

Specific Cards:
4x German Brainstorm
German (BB) Winterorb
German Foil creeping tarpit

Are you organizing backups again for this year?

[PirateKing]

I'm up for this.

Wishlist (English non-foil):
Beta Animate Dead
Archangel of Thune
Kamigawa Pithing Needle
Mother of Runes
Karakas
Horizon Canopy
Rishadan Port

anything else if I think of it I'm sure

[Megadeus]

Wasn't sure where to put a wishlist so I'll just put it here I suppose:



Vengevine
Foreign Lotleth Trolls
Foreign Talrand, the Sky SUmmoner
FBB Lightning Bolts
Modern UR landd
Foreign Young Pyromancers
Foreign Gitaxian Probes

Zoo stuff in legacy.

Green Sun Zenith
Noble Hierarch
Chain Lightning
Fleecemane Lion


Foreign stuff is just fun :)

Anything for a Loam deck with fun Christmas alters!! I want to play with Christmas trees painted on everything or Santa or reindeer!!

[Aggro_zombies]

There were only a handful of people last year who didn't receive anything by Christmas (or within a couple of days of it). That said, I can see why someone would want to start the thread early.

EDIT: I'll participate.

I prefer my cards in English, although Korean is okay if you want to send something in a foreign language. I'm generally not big on alterations or signatures (except artists).

Foils:
Golgari Grave-Troll
Kokusho, the Evening Star
Deadeye Navigator
Phyrexian Infiltrator
Black Sun's Zenith (Game Day version)
This Forest
This Island (from the original Invasion printing)
This Plains
This Swamp
This Mountain

I collect foil, foreign, miscut, and/or misprinted Wydwen, the Biting Gales and Faerie Harbingers.

My current Cube list is here. It's all commons and uncommons. Anything cool/foil from there would be good, as long as it's in English.

I'm looking for MPR (the full-art player rewards) versions of Corrupt and Sign in Blood, three of each.

I'm looking to build up my collection of Portal lands. I'm looking for the following arts: Forest, Island, Plains, Swamp, Mountain. I would also love you to death if you sent me either version of the BR Portal "Tips and Tricks" card; they were included in booster packs and for some reason I can't seem to find any of the BR one (I have multiples of the others).

Past that, EDH staples are welcome. I cashed out of Legacy a while ago, so no need to get extravagant.

[TsumiBand]

EDIT

Sorry folks, but I have had a series of unexpected life-changing events which necessitates my withdrawal from this event.

Was looking forward to giving back to The Source or at least one of its regulars -- maybe next year.

Cheers,
Luke
