[Official] the Source Secret Santa 2017 edition

[UseLess]

Okay, the interest is here, so let’s get going! Welcome all to the

Source Secret Santa 2017

How do I enter?
Budget range information
Wishlist information
The Christmas spirit
Important dates

Participation
Send me a PM with the following information:
- Name and full address + alternative contact (mail/phone number/etc)
- Shipping region (Within USA/CA/EU or overseas)
- Your (preferred) budget range
- Wishlist
- Willing to be a backup Santa?

Budget information
With respect to the budget, I’ve seen very wide ranges over the past years of SSS. Some people have more to spend and/or give than others, but we should all remember that this is not a contest who can give most or who can give the least but get the most. You should participate if you like the idea of the gifting, doing something nice for a fellow sourcer and hopefully getting a nice package yourself that makes you remember this event.
Ideally, I’m going to pair people that have similar budget ranges, in order to avoid major disappointments. That said, people should always realize that even if budget ranges are the same, that doesn’t mean everybody can buy the same amount or type of cards with it. In particular between the EU and US, there can be some large price differences, so what is expensive in the US may not be expensive in the EU, and vice versa. Some people may buy at local shops (to say support those) where things might be more expensive than some online stores.
In short: appreciate the gift, not the value. Don’t expect to make money from this event. I will of course try to avoid having someone who spends $100+ on his gift get a gift from someone who has a range of $20-30, but value differences between giving and sending are unavoidable.

Wishlist information
I will directly forward your wishlist to whomever will be giving you your present. Please make sure that your wishlist consists of at least some cards that are generally accessible by your average legacy player. Not everyone can get their hands on nice cards in Japanese foil. Also, be realistic. Don’t fill up your wishlist with only $40+ cards, even when your own budget is $50-100. If you include some lower value cards, you can often get more from your actual wishlist than if it’s just a bunch of expensive cards.
If you prefer to participate in this event without a wishlist, you can state that as well. I’ll see how many people are willing to give/receive a totally random package and will inform you during pairings if it was possible to accomplish this. At the moment, this is specifically directed to Mr Miagi, but more may feel that this is more fun or may not have specific wishlists. If there’s several people with preferences for open giving/receiving, I can set up a separate section for those :).

The Christmas spirit
To spice up your present and give a real Christmas feel, consider also sending something in addition to cards! Things to consider:
- A personal letter for your ‘victim’
- Other magic related articles (sleeves, deck boxes, playmats, etc.)
- Candy, chocolate or other food/drink related goodies
- Souvenirs typical for your home country

Important dates
11/11/17 – Registration deadline
11/13/17 – Sending out pairings
12/10/17 – Advised shipping date of package

Latest on the 10th of December, I expect a PM from everyone with an update on their package status. Ideally, everyone will send me a confirmation that their package has been sent, but with orders arriving late, alters being delayed, etc. etc., I know that some may experience some delays. I do want a status update though by the 10th of December and hear when you expect to ship.
When shipping, please send with track and trace and include the tracking number in the PM. It is totally worth the extra shipping cost to ensure that people get their packages and we know what’s going on.

People that are late can be put on a reserve list to be paired later when we there’s a few on this list.

If there’s anything missing or you have other questions, ask either here or through PM! Depending on the amount of participants and how the pairings work out, I might include myself in the pairings, but that is not what I’m aiming for. I might end up shipping some fun alters to a (un)lucky participant though ;).

Edit - I messed up some of the dates trying to write them in the US style and not EU style. So registration deadline 11th of November, pairings 13th of November and finally shipping confirmation on the 10th of December.

Edit 2 - I moved everyone that has shown interest but has not yet PM'ed me to the pending list. If your name is on the list for one of the regions that means I got your registration.

Edit 3 - Because we had more people from the US than from the EU that wanted to ship overseas, I've moved some from the US from the international list to the USA/Canada list.

[mistercakes]

Interested, within EU

[Mr Miagi]

I'd be interested but only if there were no wish lists. Wish lists kill the magic in secret santa for me.. I like getting random gifts and seeing the creativity.. not something out of my want lists which I'll buy up anyway eventually.

[Lord_Mcdonalds]

I’m interested if this happens. In US.

*waits for thread to turn into a shitshow about wish lists*

[haganbmj]

Would be in for this.
Located in US, will ship anywhere.

[PirateKing]

I'm interested. We did okay last yet but it was a super late start, so it wasn't ideal. I'd be fine with just participating, but if you need any help, let me know. Thanks.

[Dice_Box]

*waits for thread to turn into a shitshow about wish lists*
If this happens PM me.

[16km]

Interested, in the USA. Currently would prefer to ship in the states, but I may change stance once I look at shipping rates.

[Redkid43]

I’m interested. In US, will ship anywhere.

[Lord_Mcdonalds]

If this happens PM me.

Now what’s the fun in that :P

[jandax]

I'm in, located in EU will ship to all the places

Interested in participating again. Located in the US and willing to ship wherever. I think I tossed out a budget of $50-100 last year?

[entity]

Always interested!
Located in the EU, willing to ship anywhere.
Budget within 50-100 sounds good.

[taconaut]

Interested!

I am in the US (Pennsylvania) and would prefer to ship domestically, but am flexible and will ship international if we need it to make the pairings work.

I like the spirit of Mr. Miagi's philosophy about the wish lists, but I also like that it gives you an idea of something that the person will actually play (like, for instance, Japanese foils are really cool and I would be excited to get them, but I personally would likely play them only in my EDH decks). I try to mitigate this by getting some things on their wish list and some creative things to go with them, but I'm interested to see what people think about it.

[meffeo]

I'm in despite some previous disappointments; within EU but willing to ship overseas.

Last year any wishlists were PM'd to the organizer so only the eventual Secret Santa would see them.
Sometimes they were specific cards, sometimes it was broad like anything in Russian. But it kept them off the public thread.
I think it worked well that way.

Yeah, call it my lacking creativity or just sucking at gift giving but the list was helpful. Gave me a few different things to send to my recipient that I knew they'd use/enjoy.

[Krasman]

I am in.

Canada, but will ship anywhere.

[UseLess]

Great to see there's some interest and enthusiasm for this. I'll be updating this thread latest tomorrow evening (EU time) with further info on registration, deadlines and other rules/guidelines. In the meantime, keep signing up people!

[BaroqueW]

Interested, within EU

[UseLess]

I've update the opening post. Please read it and if you're still interested in participating, send me a PM with the necessary info! Let's make this another awesome SSS edition :D.

[Whippoorwill]

Info sent. Had fun doing this in the past.

[UseLess]

I've had some people ask me about backup Santas. In the past, there were usually a few people volunteering to send a (small) package to a participant who didn't receive anything, either due to a shipment getting lost or never having been sent in the first place. We already got quite a few volunteers for this (thanks guys!), so in the event that someone has to miss out on their original package, I'm sure we can get a nice reserve package together from all the backup Santas :).

[Minniehajj]

Happily signed up, first time doing this! Sounds like a great idea to me!

[Dan Pyre]

I'll be signing up as well! I hope there isn't a huge stigma against first-timers. I imagine some have been shafted in the exchange before...

Either way, I'm looking forward to it

Prefer USA but would be willing to ship anywhere. Won't poopoo that xmas spirit.

I'll PM.

[UseLess]

New people are of course welcome, that's how events like these can keep on going over several years! Keep those PMs coming in, it's great to see the participant list growing with every day :).

[EpicLevelCommoner]

USA to USA (no offense intended to others, but I don't want to be a dissappointing Santa due to price disparity).

I am in again, Secrent Santa Painter is coming along....
Only within EU though, customs are a pain here....

I'm a long-time lurker, but I rarely post.

I'm in as well! I'm in the US and I'd prefer to only ship domestically if possible.

I'm MKM Barcelona at the moment, so I'll not be as frequent with updates in this thread this weekend. Keep those sign-ups coming though! Every time I see a new PM I'm happy to see this SSS edition grow.

[Rascalyote]

Lurked the last few years but decided I finally want to join in, looks like a lot of fun and thank you for setting this up <3. PM sent.

BaroqueW, you made it in time ;).

I've just sent out all the pairings and I'm happy to say that we have 26 participants! Because of the limited inbox space, it is easier for me if you can confirm that you received your message by posting here than sending a PM, but either will work. To all, enjoy making the packages and remember to send them out in time (ideally latest the 10th of December). Once sent, PM me the tracking code (if any) and post in the topic that you've sent your package!

I'm already anxious to start that awesome bragging thread :cool:.

Received. They have a cool ask list.

[Xod]

received it as well, looks fun, but I send a PM to you (=Useless) with a question

[UseLess]

I'm on top of all questions that I've received through PM. Once the victims reply I'll be in touch again. My in/sent box are so full that I can't reply to everything I get :tongue:. So far everyone has been very responsive, which has made organizing this event a pleasure so far.

Happy hunting with all your packages, I can't wait to open that bragging thread!

Edit: all confirmed. Ho ho ho! :cool:

[EpicLevelCommoner]

Mind if I start the bragging thread? Santa was quite generous ho ho ho!

[UseLess]

Wow, great to hear you already received your packages. But shame on you for not waiting to open until Christmas! Haha. By all means, start that bragging thread though, I'm curious now what the goodies are :laugh:.

[EpicLevelCommoner]

hehehe will do

[Mr Miagi]

Package sent, hopefully it will arrive in time :)

[UseLess]

Just some practical information for all of you: because of the limitations on inbox and sent box space, I cannot confirm the arrival of every PM that I get with simple statements of "delivered" or "sent". It's not that people have asked about this, it's just that I want to let you know that I'm on top of things. I check the Source daily, so I'm for sure reading your messages! It's great to see that the first packages already have been sent, keep up the good work guys :). Over the course of next week I might give a short update status on how the sending/receiving is going. Until then, happy shopping!

[PirateKing]

Just mailed my package. You silly Europeans with your backwards address formats :laugh:
Felt bad that my contents were sparse in extras, but I didn't want to take any risks in customs.

[meffeo]

Package ready to be sent out. Will PM UseLess as soon as I get the tracking no.

[UseLess]

Quick update, I received from 6 out of 26 info on their sending status. Even if you are delayed or having other troubles, let me know! I expect to have heard from all of you by the end of coming Sunday (10th of December). The same goes for arriving packages. A reply in this thread or (preferably) the bragging thread will suffice for that. I'm greatly looking forward to the result of this year's SSS :D.

[haganbmj]

Delayed due to 2 cancelled international orders and some other bull.
If it starts looking like I'll be late I'll send a message to my victim.

[Xod]

Will send out Saturday morning.

Busy week, and first time altering, hoping my victim will like it :wink:

[Minniehajj]

Been a bit late on this, but I sent my package to my victim! Not sure if it'll arrive with my message or not, but if not, I'll send him/her a message once it arrives to make sure he got it at least!

[Dan Pyre]

Mine will be a wee bit late going out unfortunately... apologies to my giftee! Didn't get some of the pieces until very recently and wasn't able to get everything together. :frown: Should be going out Monday, however!

[Lord_Mcdonalds]

The stuff for my package has yet to arrive sadly, hopefully it'll be early this week so I can ship it out.

Wasn't able to get it quite where I want it but alas :/

[mistercakes]

Sent!

[Redkid43]

My package will be late as well, should be out this week however.

[taconaut]

My stuff hasn't arrived yet either, but I plan to send it right out as soon as I get it - I'm optimistic it'll still make it in time.

[UseLess]

I'm having info on 18/26 now, keep 'em coming! I'll be sending reminders tomorrow to those who haven't notified me by then.

[say no to scurvy]

I plan to send later this week, will update when I do.

[Pilhas]

A bit delayed since I went to the GP to buy all the cards and forgot to buy the cards cause Legacy side events....
Ordering from market and sending ASAP, will update

[tsabo_tavoc]

Sent out on Monday, will PM tracking info :smile:

[Krasman]

A bit late sorry I failed a bit getting it out on time; shipment went out yesterday.

[Lord_Mcdonalds]

So apparently the stuff for my package got sent to my old address

Normally this would be an issue but that’s my parents house so I just need to fetch it from them

Should be sending out no later than monday, again sorry for sending late.

[EpicLevelCommoner]

Will ship the majority of mine this weekend; the part that Krampus stole will be remade in Santa's workshop after the holidays.

[KaiSchafroth]

Shipped out and sent tracking info; by my guess the recipient should have it just before next weekend AKA just in time

[Whippoorwill]

Meant to ship out my package yesterday, but I haven't been able to go to the Post Office due to getting the flu. I'll have it out asap.

[UseLess]

Got info now on all but one, thanks all for making this a smooth process so far :). We already got some great packages shown off in the bragging thread!

[Whippoorwill]

Mailed out today, will be there Thursday. Also found out I didn't have the flu and "only" a double ear infection. lol

[KaiSchafroth]

Also found out I didn't have the flu and "only" a double ear infection. lol
I mean, totally winning there lol


The US postal is apparently working overdrive; looks like package arrived this morning to my recipient so ... way ahead of when I thought it would get there.

[say no to scurvy]

I received my package a few days ago, thanks santa! Will post my goodies in this thread later this week, I'm headed out on break this week for Christmas.

However, I was able to finally send out my package for my santee before I left this morning. Hope it arrives in time!

[Lord_Mcdonalds]

Figured I ended my days of getting stuff ready and turned in at the last minute back in May but I guess not lol

Shipped, pm’d the tracking number, hopefully nothing happens in transit

[Pilhas]

Taking a while to send... Still waiting on some goodies and postal service enters on strike tomorrow.
Hopefully I can send it before christmas

[EpicLevelCommoner]

Finally sent ... hopefully my victim doesnt mind a part two. ;)

[entity]

Sent mine two days ago. Hopefully, it'll arive this year - from Europe to the USA might take longer, I'm afraid. Tried to pack some extra to compensate the delay.
My package arrived in the country and has been held at customs, they're asking to declare the goods inside. I'll try to call them and explain the situation tomorrow, hopefully, I won't end up paying customs taxes :)

[Pilhas]

Received mine today and sent mine today. Will post in bargain asap and send the tracking number

[BaroqueW]

@Useless: your inbox is full :-) I am 99% sure I had already confirmed but I have shipped my package 10 days ago or so. I can dig up the tracking number if needed.

Also I can confirm I have received mine (unless I forgot about an old order from MCM ^^)

[Mr Miagi]

I really don't understand why is it so hard to send out your package on time... so many ppl who are sending in late... it's offputing really.

[UseLess]

A common reason is that people are still waiting on the cards they ordered/commissioned to arrive before they can ship them out. Also, life happens. As long as everyone is clear in communicating, I don't mind it so much. In the end the gift will arrive, that's what's important :). There's at this moment only 3 out of 26 that still need to ship and I'm in contact will all of them. I'm very happy with how this year's edition is going so far, the bragging thread is already a great place to scroll through!

Edit: I cleaned up my inbox.

[Whippoorwill]

PM'd you tracking info since the package I sent was supposed to be there Thursday. Not sure why the post office delayed the package (I paid for 2-day shipping), but at least it's in the city of the person receiving now.

So, we're now well underway into January, so I hope by now that everybody has received their packages. Currently, I only have confirmations from 13 out of 26 that the package has been received. I'll update the registration list in the OP with people who I know of have received their package. If you don't see a [received] behind your name in the OP but have received your package, please PM me or post it here in the thread! I'll be sending out PMs in a couple of days to people who I haven't heard from by then.

If you have received but didn't post in the bragging thread, shame on you! Go upload those photos and share the goodies with all of us :).

[compacta_d]

I definitely received and posted in brag thread!

Thanks for taking the initiative on that meffeo. And this is a great example why I requested people to send packages with tracking numbers. Sadly postal services all over the world make plenty of mistakes :/.

[jandax]

My tracking says its in country but still en route to destination (for over a week now:confused:)

[UseLess]

I'm happy to say that all packages are accounted for and that nobody has gone missing. Now it will be up to all the postal services around the world to make the final deliveries and have people confirm the arrival of the last packages :). So far, I'm very pleased with how this Source Secret Santa edition has been going and I would like to thank all the participants for their good spirits and participation. Hopefully this successful edition will open the door for another great event next year!

Sorry to say... but my package seems to have been lost in the mail; I have been in contact with Mr Miagi about it and will be getting something together and resent for this Monday.

I was told that I was not able to get tracking on the package from my country to his but the lady seemed new and the whole shipping process took about 25 minutes as she seemed to have no clue what she was doing.

Once I ship again I will send yourself and Mr Miagi the tracking information if I can get it this time.

[Rascalyote]

Package came in today and it's totally awesome! My wants list was pretty much "surprise me" and he nailed it!

https://imgur.com/m9sWzPI

Such lovely printing too on the letter though I dripped a bit on it with my wet hair. At the bottom it says it includes 'the best land I'm not playing' and I was sarcastically like 'this better not be a Cradle because I hate that card'. Bam! Rogue's Passage, maybe I'll cut Stage/Depths for that and get a free deck slot =p.

Council's Judgement was a card I meant to pick up for a long while but just kept forgetting it existed, going right into the SB, along with an extra copy of Garruk so I can play those sweet Wolfe tokens.

I love Sword of Feast and Famine! I was thinking of trying it again because Light and Shadow was letting me down but I couldn't remember where I put mine.

Merry (belated) Christmas!

[UseLess]

Sorry to hear that the package you sent out got lost (most likely) Krasman, but kudos that you are on top of it and willing to send another package. On a more positive note, we got some nice new additions to the bragging thread, love it!

Might steal this as a signature quote, with your permission :)

You can quote me any time, but especially on that since it's the truth.
When Lingering Souls and True-Name got you down, do what I did and slap a Rogue's Passage into your deck then wind up playing against goblins 3 times in a star city open - winning 2 of those matches because of it.

[UseLess]

Now that we're well on our way into the new year and with Mr Miagi getting his (second) package, I'm happy to say that this was a highly successful edition of the Source Secret Santa!!! Hopefully last year's SSS will give some hope to anyone who was hesitant to join so that we can have an even bigger success next year. The arrivals of all but one package has been confirmed by their respective (happy) receivers and the final package did arrive according to the tracking codes. That means a 100% receival rate, which is absolutely awesome!

I would like to thank all participants for their participation, good communication and great holidays spirit. See you at the SSS2018!

[mistercakes]

Just wanted to put it out there that I'm a little disappointed that my recipient never posted what I sent.
