I know it's early. But are we doing this again this year?

I could really use some more of those $50-$100 Soul/funk pieces..

    Anything that's valuable. I don't really listen to music.

    Y'all are on your own. Last year I set the whole thing up (not an easy task) and even got stiffed by my european match. I gave up asking around May, and have emails from january til then to prove it.

    Oh and you're probably wondering who this gentleman was.

    So a big shout out to Oliver Von Felbert aka [email]olski@netcologne.de[/email] aka Olski for never following through despite repeated emails and PMs.[/b]

    I always took him for an asshole. This proves it.

    That's some grimey shit right there. And definitely not it keeping with Christmas Cheer...

    I'm getting a sense that it will not happen this year.

    Sounds like a little too much work for this lazy ass.



    How about I just send you some raers instead?

    burn 50 copies


    that'd take like twelve days.

    couldn't we just post mp3s? since everyone involved clearly has the internet and a cd burner...

    i really enjoyed the record exchange, but i'm not organized to organize it this year.

    what kinda stoneage burners do you guys have? it takes a couple of hours... you'll be stranded in front of the computer but you can just browse soulstrut while burning anyways

    If this doesn't sound cheery it's because it isn't. raj was sick of it too last year which is why I took it up in the first place. When I said before olski stiffed me a few months after it happened nobody on the board seemed to care. But facts are facts. It's not like it's been a week, it's been a YEAR. So for this and other reasons you all are on your own.

    Oliver if you are reading this...Send the man his records.



    He spent a lot of time putting this together for everyone.



    What is your deal?
  • noznoz 3,625 Posts
    honestly. fuck that dude. i say ban him if we don't get an explaination.

    not only was young handcorkscrew kind enough to be the coordinator, but he was also my santa and hooked up the goodies. thus i have a personal interest

    get a****** his records and make it something nice, you gotta pay secret santa intrest, i'm thinking stark reality or something of equal or greater value.

    At least give the man a chance to reply/defend himself. I mean, maybe he has a good reason for not sending anything 10 months since...

    like...

    he has no short term memory.

    Yeah.

    That's it.

    Secret Santa is a mind-numbing task. My wife admin'd it in 2002 and 2003 and I had to get her a real nice piece of jewelry in the end to make up for all the time spent. We had a child in 2004 so I said f that and Aschrock took over.

    The worst part about it are plethora of dumb ass questions and petty politics of who got who. My advice is PM some homies and vow to send each other some stuff in holiday cheer. The board is way too much of an untamed beast these day anyways.
