I'd like to sign up too, but for what ever reason, I seem to miss the event. Dunno what it is, or where, But I cannot send you (n3tjm) an email! I guess canada / qweebec blocks the @ Juno . com part.. (No mailer deamon "cannot find receipient" , just dissapears into cyberspace..)

I beleive I even tried to send you a PM through TRF at the last SS as well, but no reply..

any alternatives?
 
If you copied and pasted the email address, try typing it wothout spaces.
 
Nope, done all that...

It first surfaced a few years ago, and I spoke to Douglas directly, a buch of back & forths.. He offered an alternative address which worked.. that was a few years ago. I tried recently, the past SS in December, with the same results, and utimately missed out..
 
Did you Canucks do something to piss off Santa? Maybe you'll get a bag of coal with fins and a nose cone if yer lucky.
 
I got my email sent off to Papa Elf..... Now it's time for the tough part.... patience....:kill:

Of course, right now doesn't begin to compare to the agony of having that little box come through the door.... then it's there.... mocking you for a few days!

Here is my list.... Aerotech 24/40 Motor Casing,Semroc Orbital Transport,Semroc Trident,Sunward Gravity Rider - antares class,Dr. Zooch Return to flight Space Shuttle,Estes Mirv,Estes Interceptor,Estes Commanche-3

I'm really looking forward to participating again this year.

Does Papa Elf get his name tossed into the fray as well?
 
Not since Santa handed me this job. Once in a while Santa remembers all the hard work us elves do and gives us something for our troubles :) Most of the time by the time Santa gets back, and books his vacation to the Bahamas, he'll forget about his elves until around November when letters start arriving in the mail from good girls and boys :p
 
Okay.....Better late than never eh? I am officially in....message sent. Thanks for all your hard work Papa Elf!!!

“The List”

Pem-Tech: King Kracken (High Power), Kracken (Mid Power)

Wildman: Mini Darkstar, Drago
