    I got my name and it's no-one I recognize from the board! No additional info given, either, so I hope I can find something out about him or I'll just guess and do my best.

    You can maybe look through their posts and comments and get an idea?

    Well, that's the problem. He appears to have no posts. Zero. The only thing that comes up when I search on his user name is his spot on the Secret Santa list.

    You don't have to. If you click on their name you can see all their comments regardless of which forum.

    Oftenreading you will come up with something spectacular!
    Oh please let it rain today.
    Those that can be trusted can change their mind.

    I get that. If they can't find the username to click on, they have to search for it.

    Haha, I actually had the same problem as oftenreading. Turns out I was only searching aet. Try the different forums in the search options and hopefully that will turn something up!

    Suppose I didn't give my person much info either, but for Facebook stalking purposes i'm under my Irish name Jenny Ni Chumhaill, so maybe that'll help :) I wasn't really sure how much info we should give til I saw my person gave quite a bit!

    I should stay away from this thread, it's been so much fun participating. I hope we can pull this off again next year, and then I'm in again :D Enjoy it, everyone!

    Gift all packed and ready to go to Slovakia from Canada :) Thanks again Dimi for doing this for us!! :)

    Surely you mean the gift is ready to go to Singapore....or the Solomon Islands...or maybe Switzerland. It couldn't be for (cough) Slovakia (cough), because that would mean that the one person on the list from Slovakia now knows who their Secret Santa is... No, nothing for Slovakia here....

    yes,u put your name in...but dont post anything about it,beforee arrives
    I think they're asking if we put the secret santa name in w the gift we send - but I'm assuming since it's a secret santa you wouldn't want to do that :)

    My gifts are all purchased and ready to be packed up and mailed. Since my SS recipient is still a mystery man, I had to make a lot of guesses, but hey, who doesn't like good food, right?
