    How does it usually work?
    Do we get the name and address from the organiser and post off the gift or is there a meet up etc?

    Also, everyone loves "Rise of the Robots" gifts, right?

    Give us a few more details on this, it's all a bit vague as it stands. If it's not cleared up I'm off to Jamma+, they run things so much better over there.

    Steve has to donate half of his collection which should still leave him with one of everything.

    (sorry Steve, I couldn't resist!)

    I thought you were going to say that Steve gives you two of everything.

    I suppose ill organise it this year. Basically once I get everyone who's in I'll get you all to pm me addresses and ill send them on to your allocated Santa! Ill stop talking names next Sunday so there's a week for everyone to say whether they want to be in it or not. Then a couple of weeks to get a gift. No need for anything expensive, like €15 suggested value.

    We should probably try and match it up with the list for the Beers, so we can exchange gifts there, like normal people do.

    €15, so 3 copies of Lair for the PS3?

    He's busy with his course doing programming stuff and went to the boardgame meet with Dinorex.
    So if he's missing, check Dino's first :P might be under all his hats

    Why go to jamma + when you can stay here! We have an alcoholic, an incontinent oap, a girl from limerick, a transvestite, and a man who dearly wants someone to enter him immediately!

    Also, entries for secret Santa end tomorrow!

    Just a reminder that if you're taking part in the A&R secret Santa to pm me your addresses ASAP. The sooner I get everyone the more time you have to get a gift. Even if you are going to the beers, I still need addresses incase your Santa isn't attending.
