Well since it appeares that csshih has already posted his desired list, that seems to bring the thread to me. I want to express a hearty thanks to the CPF as a whole for helping me to re-learn a lesson in thankfullness again this year. When this thread first started, I began to feel a slight twinge of jealousy every time one of "the good lights" was snapped up. After a while this started to gnaw at me a little. However that was the point that I realized that though I would have definitely appreciated those lights for the level of awesome that they are, the people who received them will likely do the exact same thing. Also, if I had received it, that by extension means they would have had to get something else that they may not have wanted as badly. Once I realized that, I found myself experiencing true joy with everyone as they chose their present.
Having had the opportunity to re-think my desires, I am going to leave the remainder of these fine personal lighting instruments to others who desire them and instead use
#9. $20 gift certificate from 4sevens, donated by Phoneguy to celebrate in true CPF style. No, I am not going to "Buy both" as is the common CPF Motto. I'm getting guilt free lumens in the form of a pair of AW protected 16340's. This should be just the thing to allow me to celebrate through the whole winter darnkess even with my currently extremely tight financial belt. There should be just enough of the cert. left to combine with my meager PayPal account to pick up a Fenix diffuser cap to give to my Dad on Christmas for his L2D CE.
So Thanks again to everyone involved in this event. To ksbman for organizing the giveaway, to all the donors for the fantastic prizes, and especially to a few people for going far above and beyond the call of duty thus far.
p.s. if I've jumped the gun by not waiting for csshih to officially post, then please forgive me. I have a backup choice if he would like the gift cert.
