I'd like to thank all the Santas who donated a gift for the give-away. :thanks: :bow:

RULES- Don't take a light just because it is free. If you have no use for what is available when it is your turn to choose, leave it for the next person. Please be considerate.

The first person on the list picks which light he wants and posts his choice. The second person then makes his choice from what's left and posts what he's chosen. And so on.

Once we get to the bottom of the list there will still be a lot of lights left over. We'll just run the list again, this time in reverse order, starting from the bottom and working up until all the lights are gone.

I will update the list to reflect what's been chosen already, but you don't have to wait on me. Just read the post ahead of yours and choose accordingly.

The process will take a few days because I won't notify you when it's your turn. You'll just have to check the thread to see when you're up. In the past, the people on the list below a slowpoke will PM/e-mail that person, several times.

On the first run of the list, if it's been your turn for two days and you haven't chose yet, you will be skipped over. On the second (or more) run, you have one day to choose before you are skipped over. If you have been skipped, you can choose whenever you do show back up.

After you've chosen a light, send an e-mail or PM with your address to the person who donated the light and we'll mail your light to you.

And it's not too late to be added to the bottom of the list if you qualify.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! :santa:

******************************************************************************
:santa: This is year seven for the Christmas Give-away and this year I'm doing it the same way as last few years.

I asked other CPF members to donate a light (or whatever) that they are not using, and have received replies from a few good CPF'ers. :candle:

Friday, November 27th, I will post, in random order, the names of those whom ask to be considered in this thread. Those people will then be able to choose a donated light, one at a time, starting from the top of the list.

This offer is open to those participating members of the CPF community who cannot afford to buy one of these lights themselves, whether it be because they have no job, no disposable income, are still in school, or ?.

I have some new rules this year -

- If you haven't posted on CPF before this post, you don't qualify.
- If your 'About Me' profile isn't filled out (every block doesn't need to be filled in), you don't qualify.
- If you have received a gift from the last 3 Christmas Give-aways (in a row), then you don't qualify.
- If you have more than one 'high end' light, you don't qualify.
- If you just don't want to spend your own money, you don't qualify.
- If you just want another light to add to your collection, you don't qualify.

PLEASE do not ask to be considered just because you do not want to spend your own money. Let someone who truly is in need have a chance to get a light.

I won't mention what lights are available until November 27th.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! :grouphug:

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

Hi keith,

I meet all your requirement and would like to be considered as I am a law student and law textbooks is costing a lot especially the appreciation of british pounds lately. I am not located in USA, is that ok?

 

[Gitlaa]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

I would like to be considered as I am a college student (broke!!). I recently had to sell most of my lights to pay back money that I owed. A nice light would really brighten up this year for me! Thank you for considering me and for this wonderful opportunity.

 

[csshih]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

hey Keith,
(not entering in the giveaway of course)

Do you need help with the roster/list of people? I can write down all the names then send them to you for randomization

 

[es2qy]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

This would make my otherwise bad year better. Please consider, many thanks.

 

[hydrou]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

As I will loose my job by the end of this year, this might be the last nice x-mas for some time.

So, it would be very nice to be considered here. This will definitively lighten up my mood during these difficult times. Literally and practically... :candle:

And thank you for your efforts organizing this nice event!:twothumbs

 

[Moka]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

G'day Keith...
Still a student, lol, still broke... Though am getting a High-End light from my dear old dad for x-mas...
Let me know whether or not I qualify mate...
Gratz on the great initiative again...
Cheers,
Moka

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

Keith, this is completely awesome that you are doing this again. I'm still cultivating more lint than currency in my wallet and look to be so for a long time, but due to the awesome outpouring I witnessed last year, I wanted to be on the donation side this year.

I hope you got my PM because I sent it right before the CPF blackout (which amazingly wasn't a desirable thing this time) and I don't know if anything was lost during the shuffle.

 

[mefistofele86]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

hi, i think to be perfectly qualified for a gift I have no job and no hi-end flashlights now.. i never win a giveaway and i have no money. If i have money surely i buy 2-3 lights XD.
i will be very happy to be considered here lovecpf

 

[mchlwise]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

Keith,

I don't qualify and am therefore not entering, but had to post to thank you once again for keeping this amazing tradition going. :twothumbs

 

[scarlet]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

I would love to be considered. I am currently a college student and I have been cutting back majorly on my expenses because the public universities in California are raising tuition fees by 33%. . Thank you.

 

[neal71]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

This really is an awesome thing that you are doing. I just recently started seriously looking into lights, I thought up until this year that my 6D m@g was bright. I am currently going to spend all of the money I had saved for a "good" light on a helmet light for my father since his fire dept does not supply them. I am not sure if I would qualify for this or not, but if it is the only way I can get a flashlight for christmas then I guess I have to at least try and get on the list.

 

[dandism]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

I'm another starving (for lumens) student trying to get a degree in Mechanical Engineering. The classes are too hard for me to have a job at the same time so my budget is smaller than most people on here. I would like to be considered for the event.

Hi Craig, you can be Santa VIII next year. :thumbsup:

 

[csshih]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

Hi Keith,
aah, ok.
sad to see you go, though. lucky 7 this year, I wonder what's going to come up!

 

[eyeonthewall]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

Hey,
It's a great thing that you're doing here! I am a student in college right now and had to sell my lights to pay for books ;( Being considered here would be great news! Thanks for everything and especially thank you to all of the donators

 

[ksbman]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

 

[Qoose]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

ksbman and everyone else who donates, I'm amazed at you all. Stop hoarding all the generosity in the world!

I'll leave it to you to see if I qualify, as I feel like there are probably others that deserve something more than me. I recently lost my beloved L1, leaving me with a used 120p. My college tuition is one of the scariest things I have ever seen. I plan on not buying any lights until I graduate, as it's probably the smartest thing for my wallet.

 

[bigslick]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

I would really appreciate being considered in this. I'll admit I haven't been the most active person on these boards this year, but it's very hard as i'm now in college as an aerospace engineering major. I spend almost all day in the labs or library .

So thanks for doing this! The University of California's decision to raise tuition by 33% has put a strain on my already struggling financial situation.

 

[Blight]

Re: Christmas Gifts VII

I'd like to sign up, but I'm not sure if I qualify or not. I signed up last year, but passed when my turn came. I also own a self made Mag 85 (cost me about $40), but it's pretty powerful. Is that considered a 'high end' light?
