 Sock has taken a knee this year, and we are getting a late start, so here we go. Important Dates: Wednesday, November 23rd - REGISTRATION CLOSED. Wednesday, November 30th - Pairings go out this week. Wednesday, December 21st - Ship-by Date: Ideal ship-by date. PLEASE do everything you can to have your gift on its way on or before this day. Saturday, December 31st - PoniesAteMyBagel-Day (Deadbeat Cut Off): If you have not provided proof of shipping by this date, you will be considered a deadbeat and will be banned.  Last year there were a lot of santees that did not post pictures and thank their santa. Please don't be a horrible jerk, it takes 5 minutes and the person who spent their time and money doesn't have to worry forever if you got it.Registration: Please copy and paste the following info into an email and send it automotiveinsanity2016@gmail.com. Username: UserID: (this can be found by clicking on your profile and copying the number string at the end of the url -http://forums.somethingawful.com/me...userid=________) Shipping Label Name: (what you want me to send your Santa for him to slap on the shipping label. Real names, fake names, etc) Shipping Address: (please include all special info here for deliveries. Indicate if a signed delivery will be required for security reasons and I'll let your Santa know early) Santee Shipping: Domestic/North America/International (pick one). I only set this as there are a handful of countries that usually get involved, and it mainly boils down to Canada/US/UK/Nordic Countries/Australia. If it says Domestic and I see you're in Australia, I'll get it. Then, you make a post in this thread. In your post please have: - Any specific requests. If you don't want dicks drawn on the box say so, but I'm not making any promises. - You may include an optional "do not send" list. Have enough T-shirts, maybe mention you'd prefer a neat little HF gadget/tool than another XL funny car guy t-shirt. Proof of shipment rule -No proof and your santee doesn't get a package? You're a deadbeat. When you ship your gift, you must provide proof of shipment. automotiveinsanity2016@gmail.com with the username of the person you're buying for and the tracking information. If anything goes pear shaped, at least we can figure out where. If you live near your santee and want to drop it off yourself, email me and tell me that you did. -You must provide proof of shipment before the deadline. Please put the tracking number in your email. If you do not have a tracking number, you must EMAIL me a photo/scan of the shipping receipt. - If you hit any speed bumps, have any questions, or need anything at all you can email or PM me. Accepted types of proof - Tracking number from UPS, Fedex, USPS, Canada Post, whatever - Photo or scanned image of your shipping receipt with your username written on it. Most receipts have the zip code of the recipient, so this is how I will check these. Gift cost Try and keep your gifts in the $10-30 range. Make sure you account for shipping cost. If you can't afford gift plus shipping, please don't register. - Please do not spend stupid amounts of money on gifts for someone on the internet. Unless you're incredibly wealthy, have some sort of personal relationship with them, or it's loving hilarious and fills you with joy to send - If you will be moving or traveling a lot during a gift time, please say so in your email and/or post so that I/your santa knows when and where is the best time to send your gift. If you have ANY questions, concerns or anything you need at all. Please PM or email me!

Signing up. I can finally participate this year. Warning, box will probably be packed with as much free swag as I can swipe from work in addition to gifts. My only request is no clothes. My fat goony meat carcass is too difficult to find sizes for.  Also, no nsfw on the outside of the box due to the likelyhood that I'll be having extended family around constantly. Feel free to go nuts on the inside though.  Edit: Car: 2004 Mazda 6s SportWagon I've got a house, garage with lots of basic tools and a few specialty things, drink whiskey straight and throw money at a boat shaped hole in the water when I can afford it.

I'm in, as always. More details later. I sent Knipex tools to PoniesAteMyBagel, drat him! ::edit:: Not big on clothing, as I'm a voluntary-uniform kind of guy... but if you must, I'm an XL in shirts. Candy/snacks are cool, oddball tools, electrical gizmos, VW stuff, or truck-related poo poo. I used to work on boats, so nautical stuff is cool too. I work on robots and cameras. Nothing NSFW. Dildos aren't OK, sorry folks. No more CB radios, I've now got 2 and no truck to install them onto. I've got an '07 Fit and a '15 GMC 2500HD DCLB Duramax, white (as all work trucks should be). sharkytm fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Nov 15, 2016 |

Oh hey neat, what the heck, email sent. Size XL with a long torso if it comes up, but I do have a bunch of tshirts. *edit* OK, I see people are providing more information and guidance, so what the hell. Hi, I'm a rotary guy with a big pile of 1st gen RX-7s in a field and a rotary Miata project. Also have an 03 WRX for boring daily transportation that's slowly getting a bit modded. Married homeowner with a pair of cats. Also trying to do metal fabrication including casting, milling and welding, hiking/biking stuff, 35mm film photography, scotch/bourbon and like knives and flashlights but I don't have anything too impressive on either of those categories. Not easily offended, nor is my wife, but I'd prefer not to get straight up literal garbage. mekilljoydammit fucked around with this message at 14:56 on Nov 18, 2016 |

I did this a few years ago and got some cool stuff, some of which I still have! As most people will probably ask, no  packaging or contents. I have children and prudish wife/MIL, any of whom may be present for delivery and/or unboxing. That aside, go nuts. I only have one car-related shirt, and it gets some miles, so those are fine. I'm a medium. I also have several Buick Centurys littering my property, so Century-related items are cool.

Seen a lot of these roll through and never participated...Hey it's time to change that. I don't have any special requests, and you can send whatever. I do live in The South, and your box art may get the package searched by Jethro at the post office so use your best judgement there. My car history includes Volvo, BMW, Jeep, Toyota and Chevy trucks. T shirt size large.

Getting in AISS again. I'm up for swag or whatever. Small things, though, as I don't have too much space, and I doubt you'll want to pay the shipping costs. American XL if you decide to ship a t-shirt. Avoid NSFW packaging, but NSFW gifts are cool, I suppose. Also, I have a dorky hobby which is inexpensive with an online retailer in my region. Current Stable: 2016 AEON My150 (motorcycle); no cars (my Nissan died  )I'm a huge dork for: Volvo, swag, racing, stickers, and airplanes. I live on an island in SE Asia, so keep in mind that there's a few things that can't be sent here, and heavy boxes are expensive boxes.

I meant to sign up for this last year. I have some rusty bits of metal that might be interesting and soon I'll have a limitless supply of snow. Requests: Nothing special, but my vehicles are a 2005 mazda 6 I hate, a 1976 Toyota FJ45 that I love, and a 1988 Toyota Pickup in need of love. Shirt size XLT/XXL. E: Lied, do have request. Santa, if you happen to have a 13BT exhaust manifold laying around and gathering dust, why, that sure would make my Christmas a swell one.

Yeah boyeeeeee time to go find some Turbobrick, Insight, Miata, and Austin Mini currently; previous cars include a 5.0 Mustang, Turbobrickwagon and RX-7 so there's no real pattern here. I'm a huge nerd for stickers, cats, airplanes, music, cooking, guns, video games, tools, marine animals and dinosaurs so basically anything would be welcome. I'm a size small usually.
