The Energon Pub

As it's that time of the year, when people start to think about what to get their friends & family for Christmas, I thought It'd be fun for all of Seibertron to share the joy. How about, this year, members of the board post here with their good wishes & metaphorical gifts, & you can give a gift to every Seibertron member who wants to take part.

Imagine secret Santa. I assume you all know it. That's what the concept will be like, but with a twist.
You sign up in this thread, & then on Christmas day (or before) you go out & buy a Transformer for yourself. However it has behind it the good will of all the other members posting in this thread. In essence, if we all do it, we're all buying each other a Christmas present.


If you still don't get it, I'll use a small scale example.
For the example I'll use two of the friends I've made on this board, Grim Squeaker & Sherade.
If I knew them In real life I'd spend £10 buying Grim a deluxe, Grim would spend the same getting Sherade a deluxe, & Sherade would get me one. It's then circular, & If we all spend the same amount we're essentially buying for ourself but with someone else choosing.


Anyone interested in this?
Basically it's an excuse to buy something for yourself at Christmas, because it's a gift from Seibertron, one thats been returned equally across the entire board! Well, the part that participates. Sign up & let your participation & good will be known. Then when you've brought yourself your present from Seibertron post it so we know what we've got you.

So, what do you think? Will Justicity be this years Robo-Santa?


FAQ

Lets set the limit that you must buy from a store. Put it this way, what would you buy a friend? Would you consider getting him/her an 08BB if you saw it in a store? Would you consider spending $500 to get him a MISB Wheelie?

Dead Metal wrote:(summarized) When do we post?

Sign up now so we all know who's buying for you & whenever you get a chance just let us know what we got you.

If anyone is confused or doesn't understand it, just say & I'll rethink the wording.

Edit: Is this in the right forum? Should it be in the General Discussion? If it should, feel free to move it...

Wichteln, as it's called over here, wel it'S a nice idea, just I won't be posting on Christmas day, I'll be at my English granny's house, in England.
And the only way to go online will be with the library computer, and they are as slow and I don't think I can go and visit it on Christmas.
but if I can post it like afer christmas, like silvester, I'll do that.

I'm up for it.

im down! so whats the spending limit?

Whatever I guess, I mean if we get all of Seibertron signed on then the price of whatever you buy would be divided so much that price wouldn't matter.
But lets set the limit that you must buy from a store. Then we wont end up with a few people buying vastly expencive things from ebay etc. Put it this way, what would you buy a friend? Would you consider getting him/her an 08BB if you saw it in a store? Would you consider spending $500 to get him a MISB Wheelie?
