Oh right Sticker Star and the Adventure Time video game are coming out so I won't have the cheddar to do it. Do we have to send the presents by the 15th of November, or just be signed up?

Just be signed up; Secret Santa is a Christmas thing I thought

Wait a minute, I'm not sure what's going on. Are we buying shit for people, or is this some international, online game of assassin?

Whatever, I'm in, should be fun, I'll figure it out.

Just know that your gift and/or death will be based off of this hierarchy:
1. If I know you, it'll be extravagant based off of the extensive research I do into the comments you've made mixed with my own interests.
2. If I don't know you, or you never post, it'll be based off of your avatar.
3. If your avatar is obscure as shit, you're getting a t-shirt off of think geek. It'll be nice, and hilarious, and smart, and you'll LOVE IT so help me god!
4. If you're paranoid and always comment, but somehow manage to hide any sort of information related to interests or your personal life, you'll get something slightly nicer from think geek.com out of sheer respect, because that shit would be impressive. I'll just fucken pick something. Not that "mind control ball game" thing, that shit's just ridiculous...maybe the Doctor's Screwdriver...or something......I think that's still on there...

EDIT: Also I hear that Australians have a ridiculous time getting new release video games in a timely manner. Because of both this, and because WILDCARD, if I find out you're from Australia, you'll be getting a new release game (between when RE6 and Halo 4 were/are released) provided you manage to drop enough hints between me getting your name, and when I send the daisies thing off. I won't be contacting you, so you're just going to have to assume I have you and make really obvious hints. No you will not be getting the collector's editions (you greedy turds).

Also if you drop hints for Call of Duty, you're getting the cheapest thing thinkgeek has to offer.

EDIT2: Also also you better hope this "international shipping" thing isn't too complicated, because I have a short attention span and I hear you don't want to get testy with the post office personnel.

Shipping games internationally might be problematic depending on what consoles. Do other systems besides Nintendo have region-locking?

PS3 and PC games are region free. Don't think Wii is, Don't know about X-box. Just careful with games that have a serial code (some fucker who works for the post stole the rego for L4D2 when my mother in law mailed it to us. Australia had censored the gore so we didn't want an Aussie version of the game).

But yay for us! We're having an R rating implemented soon.

Here's another fun tip:

Order on e-bay from the country where your target lives => Supply with correct adress => ??? => Profit.

Pretty much everything has region locking, only exceptions I know are the DS (3DS has locks again), and the PSP (No idea about the Vita). Considering I can't find any info on the PS3 box, it indeed looks like there is no region lock on this either (if you, for whatever reason, want to send a PS2 game however, this one definitely has region locks).
Basically, if you see an "NTSC" or "PAL" on the game box, there is a region lock on it. For reference, Europe and Australia have PAL, everywhere else it's NTSC.

Hey you're forgetting me, Spoons little helper. I come equipped with super fast driving and general lack for keeping up with traffic rules (TM), getting stuff delivered on time will be no problem for me.

I also would plan on buying the game from Gamestop and then mailing it in one of those flat rate boxes you can purchase at the post office. The mail guy would end up having to go digging through that shit to get at it, especially since I also plan on wrapping it up in wrapping paper as well (inceptionjoke.jpg)

Also since it's American, it'll have all the gore and shit in there anyway. I don't know how censored it is over there, but Dishonored was pretty bloody.

Also also this is also only if who I get is from Australia and drops specific enough hints to where I'm able to send them the right game in the right console. Nothing would scream "awkward" like receiving the game you've been wanting for the last two months and it being for a completely different console.

As for coding and imprinting (and shit), I can look that stuff up if it turns out to be that pertinent.
