I admire those who persevere and carry on guessing after they're out of the game. I struggle enough to work out who I've made guesses at, let along trying to match a secret santa with another giftee. Calls for a spreadsheet.

I admire those who can do this without a spreadsheet! I'd be completely lost without mine and its wee colour-coded cells.

Yeah, it’s all about making 42 partitions in your brain for the Santa’s and 42 more for the presents then cross-referencing them with each other whilst trying to recall who is still in and what presents were bought by whom. Easy really.

 

What a heap of shite I’ve just typed ... :lol:

 

Pure guesswork is the way to go.

No room for charm in this game red.

 

:D It's all been pretty jolly so far. Does it get cut-throat at some point?

 

Out of interest, and you don't need to answer, was your being a lurker a tactic or did you just not get much chance to post?

The sense of fear I hope my anti-lurking crusade has instilled in all lurkers. ;)

 

The only good lurker is an outed lurker!

 

Other than that, may be the best Santa win. :)

Don't worry, I'm sure there won't be many people in the supermarket at all.

A bit of both really. In previous years I'd dived straight in so thought I'd see how the lurking game plays out. Also in my new job I have no access to phone or Internet for 9 hours a day so JKB is completely off the menu most of the week.

It certainly must be tougher for those who don't have constant access to JKB, especially if the final action takes place during working hours.

 

I think that lurking could actually be a pretty useful strategy. I've been told that in previous years the board software made it easy to display the number of posts each poster had made in the thread (although posts isn't the same as guesses), but the new software doesn't allow that. It would have made lurking a very good strategy this year if it weren't for me being a complete bar steward with my anti-lurker crusade.

Yes, I will never forget your cruel and spiteful intervention, neither in this life nor the next. 

 

Hope you get crap Xmas presents.

Underneath your harsh, hateful and unfair demeanour and my sparkling, talented and hilarious self we're basically the same person.
