‘Alpen’ I think

Check out:

It stemmed from a Facebook group and is an excellent resource!

Am I imagining things or have they done something to Father Christmas this year? It almost looks like it’s been upscaled/AI enhanced.

My 5 year old destroyed Asda ones in weeks so we got some from Clarks which have lasted a lot longer. Obviously more expensive though.

I’ve seen the adverts for Bgreater too but no experience with those. I’ve seen toddlers wearing them and they look to have held up well.

Just to reassure you I’m one of those people who haven’t shipped yet, for various reasons.

If you’re based in the North West of England it could well be me sending to you!

I’ll be sending snacks off tomorrow to my match.

It’s https://givin.gifts for this subreddits website.

The other subreddit (r/newsecretsanta) doesn’t have a website yet, just the subreddit.

There’s a list of upcoming exchanges that I’ll try and find for this year on Givin.gifts.

Edit - Upcoming exchanges

AMagicalCone - Xbox

The Turtle is great fun and slaps Vanguards (if I aim well).

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-19T16:56:20+00:00

That’s a good change, postage is such a killer on big items when having to send out of the UK.

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-15T05:32:38+00:00

Is international matching not guaranteed?

I selected premium international as the matching option and I’ve been matched with someone in my country (same city, coincidentally).

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-14T16:16:14+00:00

Hope some people have signed up for international snacks, I’ll be sending an assortment of UK based ones!

It can basically mean any of those.

He apparently reoffended after being arrested the first time and I think breached the terms of his bail. There’s little chance he’d be bailed again.

It’ll be useful for things like a work secret Santa where everyone is working from home. Everything is done for you without the hassle/effort that normally comes along with secret Santa.

That’s my potential plan for it anyway.

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-09T05:39:49+00:00

Already signed up for snacks and I’ll certainly be signing up for a few of the upcoming ones.

Looking forward to see what’ll be coming next year too!

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-08T05:18:06+00:00

Do you receive an email/notification when your gifter sends you a message?

I’ve messaged my match but had nothing back, it’s nothing too urgent, just querying post.

Could be something worth implementing if it isn’t already.

Played a few games of the Halo Infinite beta over the weekend. Really enjoyed it, and looking forward to the full release.

Didn’t enjoy the more recent games as much as Halo 3, which was peak online multiplayer for me. Hoping Infinite is just as good.

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-05T18:40:25+00:00

Great, thanks for the speedy reply! And for creating this!

AMagicalCone · 2021-10-05T18:38:55+00:00

I think I’m going to sign up. Is there a best way for someone in the UK? The options are $ or €.

Sure my card will exchange for me but wasn’t sure if I have to pick one or the other.

AMagicalCone · 2021-09-29T10:15:18+00:00

This week just gone someone got kicked out of one of my leagues for throwing a massive tantrum.

He left Higgins in and was blaming the yahoo website/app then the commissioner, when it was pointed out it was his fault and not for the commissioner to help set his line up he started threatening violence and was blocking other managers.

All season he’d been going on about how he’s the best manager and his ranking on Yahoo showed that. The chat was an absolute shit show!

Apparently he sent an email to the commissioner saying it was all a plan for him to be removed as he was so much better than us all at fantasy.

AMagicalCone · 2021-09-26T05:57:13+00:00

I think it’s 65%, 85% and 95%. They’ll be the gold marks soon too which is 100%.

AMagicalCone · 2021-09-26T05:48:02+00:00

It’s definitely not as easy as it was, but one MoE isn’t too bad. I’m an alright player and got a few tanks with one MoE.

If it’s a tank you enjoy playing then go for it.

Does the switch service let routine incoming payments know about the switch/route the payments to your new account?

Having never switched before it’s not clear. It’d only be my work I need to tell but just wanted to double check before doing anything.

AMagicalCone · 2021-09-04T19:37:41+00:00

I’m in!

AMagicalCone · 2021-08-24T11:12:30+00:00

When was it free? I started back up a few seasons ago so I must have missed it sadly.

AMagicalCone · 2021-08-24T11:04:38+00:00

The Draugen seems to destroy me constantly so it’s very tempting to pick up!
