I know there are some people who haven't gotten their gifts yet, but it looks like this time Everyone is going to get a gift, even if they're a little late. Thus, I declare this secret santa event a success!
On a somewhat less successful note, I must make an apology. At the beginning, I had promised that all participants would get an extra gift this year as a reward for participating. Unfortunately, I must announce that, due to circumstances beyond my control, I will be unable to fulfill that promise. The success or failure of this was not a function money but time. I'll keep trying to figure out some way to fulfill it after all, but until then, I extend my deepest apologies to all the participants.
Yes, gift-giving and sending were both TREMENDOUSLY fun experiences. I dunno, it's like they say, giving a gift really is more satisfying than receiving one.
I was just waiting since a few people posted already that they'd be late, but if this is something we should be reporting, throw my name in the "I haven't gotten anything" pool.

Yes, definitely report it if you haven't gotten a gift yet.
Gundabad, I've spoken to your santa, and you WILL be getting a gift, but it will be a bit late. The gift hasn't even arrived to the Santa yet, but as soon as it does, it will get shipped out to you.
Maybe I should send Mr. Roboto something just to be nice.
Thanks for the offer, and just in case, my address is not the same that Rym has anymore. But I'm really not posting the complaint to receive a gift, it's just so that whomever decides to organize it this year (if there is going to be another one) takes into account the people that didn't send theirs the last 2 times.

I thank the person who got me the Anthology of Finnish Stories. ^_^
You'll get your gift.
Freezepop's new CD! Thanks, Santa!
It seemed like there were a lot of people who signed up, but didn't report what they received. =/

Edit: I met my gift recipient personally after Christmas, so I know they got it. They just didn't post.
If I understand correctly it had to do with shipping problems, though, so no shame.
