UG 2015 Secret Santa Thread(Official)

[RyannVonDoom]

This is how it's going down.. Get me your Info by December 10th... cannot stress enough how important this is.. that gives 14 days to get your SS recipient a present. (edit) If they could make this a sticky, that'd make this a lot easier. 

 

It's that time of year again!  The 12th Annual UG Secret Santa!
Here's how participate:

1. Send a PM to me here

2. In that email I'll need your REAL NAME, ADDRESS, and UG Screen Name.

3. I will then randomly select from the final list who will be a Secret Santa for whom.

4. There will not be a spending limit but in the past most people sent gifts in the $30 range. Popular gift ideas are Fight Team or MMA themed shirts, Fight DVDs, hats, books, etc.

5. THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT! Once you've signed up and sent me an email, come back to this thread and post your wish list along with your SHIRT / HAT / and SHORT SIZES and if there is a DVD or something you'd like to have. That way each Secret Santa can have an idea of what to get for their recipient. This will make it a little less hard to buy for a stranger.  DO NOT EMAIL ME YOUR SIZES AND WISH LIST.  POST THEM HERE ON THIS THREAD.  If you don't post your wish list and sizes, it's  your own fault if you get a gift that doesn't fit, etc.  Also, posting here will let everyone see who's playing this year. Note: This is a very simple format. You sign up, you get a name and address, you purchase a gift and mail it or have it sent via the online company you purchased from. The entire process from the minute you get your recipient's info to the time of purchase could take as little as 15 minutes - if you do everything online. THERE'S NO NEED TO TAKE THREE WEEKS OR THREE MONTHS TO GET THIS DONE.  There is no need for anyone to wait beyond Christmas to receive their gift. So, if this is not that simple for you, for any reason, please don't register.

Again, if you sign up, Please - Please - Please honor your recipient and do your part. NO EXCUSES, NO MISHAPS. We are all adults... if you sign up, play right. I don't care about personal issues, work related drama, travel issues or other "life" problems. If you're dealing with any of these things, DON'T PLAY.  IF YOU REGISTER YOU ARE SAYING THAT YOU ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO DO THIS TASK WITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.  We had over 80 people last year and this is our 10th year, so let's keep the positive vibes going.  ONLY REGISTER IF YOU ARE ABLE TO PURCHASE AND SEND A GIFT, WITH NO PROBLEMS.  

*A quick thank you to those players from last year who stepped up and gave gifts to more than one recipient. You really helped a lot by picking up the slack of those who did not commit to their giving.  I would prefer that this be a non-issue this year. 

REGISTRATION: November 30th - December 10th.  It's a bit shorter than last year but this is plenty of time to get registered and it will give me time to get everyone their recipient info in time for you take advantage of holiday sales. It also leaves a lot of time to get your gifts purchased and sent so that EVERY PERSON GETS THEIR GIFT ON TIME FOR CHRISTMAS. 

EXTRAS:
I love doing this but it takes a crazy amount of time to organize and keep running smoothly.  With that, I'm not going to take the time to babysit this event this year like I've done in previous years. This is a very easy process and with the right focus, you can be done with it quickly and enjoy being a part of UG holiday tradition. So here are some reminders:
1. Post your sizes and wish list on this thread so your Santa will know what to send. If you have a person who does not list these things, buy them a book, a blue name or a gift card to the UG store. Keep it simple.
2. Once you get your recipient's info, make your purchase immediately, send it, and be done with it.
3. Please be sure that you PM ME ASAP. 
4. Secret Santa is an International event and last year we had 8 countries represented.  To keep shipping costs and timing down to a minimum I'm keeping countries together this year as best as possible.  So, as best as I can manage it, all players will be shipping to other players within their own country.  Hopefully that helps smooth things out a bit, internationally.   
5.  I'll post more notes, tid-bits and info as I think of it.

That's it! Thanks for playing and have fun. Happy Holidays, in advance.

[theINFAMOUScarpe]

no hats please, shirt size med, shorts med.

i'm cool with anything, i just like giving back to this awesome community. anything MMA is cool. xbox one player.

[microbiologynerd]

In to pm info from a computer

[RyannVonDoom]

Ttt

[FETT_TFK_UGCTT_Captain_America]

I'm in! I'll PM you later, probably tomorrow.

5/8 hat
XXXL shirt, jacket, hoodie
40" waist for shorts and such

MMA:
My favorite fighters list is pretty standard, early UFC stars, Pride guys, modern stars, really anybody. I went to Bellator 35 and 85, they weren't selling posters, I have a poster from every other fight I've been to, if you could find those, that'd be the greatest gift ever! I'm a sucker for autographed pictures and posters, I love action figures and round 5 dolls, really anything fight related.

Non-MMA:
I love cigars, scotch, and beer. I could use a nice V cutter, any local beers or whiskey, borboun, scotch from where you're at would be awesome. I'm also a massive nerd. I really enjoy board games, especially ones with cool miniatures.

I'm not very picky, I'll be happy with whatever you decide to send me!

[DiscipleDojo]

In! 

Shirt size: L

Waist: 32"

I'm not really a hat guy, so no worries on that.

Favorite fighters: Anything Renzo related, anything Bruce Lee related

I've been trying to get a copy of the new Carlos Gracie biography, but haven't been able to find a copy in print. It would be epic if a SS out there was able to get their hands on it for me. I also got a Diamond MMA cup from a friend last year and would LOVE a 2nd pair of their compression shorts. I've also wanted to try a SISU mouthgard. Copic brush markers and multi-liner pens would be pretty useful as well.  Here's my Amazon wishlist with other random stuff on it as well: http://amzn.com/w/1ABSQE3M1TEMN 

 

Happy holidays, UG!

[Kurle]

I'm in again.

Shirt Size XL

I'm open to pretty much anything.

[RyannVonDoom]

[FETT_TFK_UGCTT_Captain_America]

Can a long time, but not really active poster participate? I spend hours reading daily, but post less due to my lack of wanting to argue. If so I would love to join in. I'll hook a brother up.

One of my favorite things to do on here is debate. Sometimes it's just watching others debate.

But I truly hope that if you ever disagree with something I say or a point of view, that you speak up.  I won't ever change my perspective to yours unless you try to let me see it.  And unlike a lot of young whipper snappers on here, I actually am open to being wrong.
