No, but I propose a trading round for people that are unhappy/have no use for their gift to take place once everyone has their gifts.

Not sure if everyone knows actually.. but for me it doesn't really matter that much.

It even doesn't work with JavaScript on, youtube does not exist for me.
Gnash works fine with youtube, it's what I use.

I just got Santa'd!

A huge THANK YOU to the giver of these gifts, I can tell you put a good bit of thinking into it. I am going to have to try the teensy on my HHKB asap.

Hehe damn, busted! :D this santa just lost his hidden identity ^^ I hope you like it. That was my first completed cable. Since it's a christmas cable the secret santa seemed like the perfect opportunity to give it away :)

Haha well your true identity is safe with me! ;)

I definitely like the cable! Really nice in festive christmas colors, really fitting for a santa theme :D
And I was already tempted to get a custom cable for a new keyboard I'm building/modding so it's very welcome!

These pictures make me happy I did not participate due to lack of money! I would have felt really bad getting a good gift, and sending away a crappy one. Would have destroyed my christmas happiness!

Thanks! Don't worry though, they aren't going on my keyboards, but on my daughters' keyboard

These switch top removal tools work great too

That would be my guess, too.
The switch opener tool gives it away.
Damn I want one of these, too :)

You are correct, they are from my friend The_Beast :mrgreen:

I don't think he is selling the switch opener tools yet, but i'd highly recommend getting one when he does. It works quite well and now I can finish modding one of my 1800's to Ergo-Clears

His ^_______^ (pony?) face gave it away for me; then saw the switch openers and my thoughts were confirmed :D

Nice presents so far, good "work" folks!

Pics not working :(. But I'm glad you and your daughters really like the gifts

I'm waiting for all my plates to be gone before selling the switch tools to the gen pop. Plus I've been busy with finals coming and being sick.


BTW I just like the ^___^ face because it's cute (and it reminds me of whales)


I may gave gotten my gift, but I had it sent to my house, not my dorm. Should be a nice surprise when I get home this Friday

I have from one item you got narrowed it down to 3 possible people, I'm too lazy to find out who though.

Nice gift.
