It would be amazing if someone could get some Sciencemadness logo stickers/patches made for SS. IIRC there was some made a few years ago; are any still around? If any are made, they could be sent to Madhatter to include with the cards.

Just a thought I had.

I'm in. This is my favorite gift to send and receive every year!

@Sir_Gawain I received a shirt one year! It is a prized possession.

I know a fellow who does prints like this. Screen prints, direct to garment, direct to transfer paper, etc. He does mugs, stillframes, canvas, board, shirts, hoodies, whatever you can think.

Here is a Science Madness mug.
You can get these direct sent to your recipient.
There are other things on the site too. Not sure about t shirts.

I had a bunch of these patches made about a year ago for my Magic the Gathering obsession. It's pretty trivial to get an order through, they also only worked out to <$2 each at 100 ordered. Any clue on demand for a SM patch?

It would be wrong for you not to participate... It's your patriotic duty.

As long as it is not issued by the Board of Directors, I see no problem.

While I do think the old logo is a little over complicated and hard to read, this one is way too simple.

Patch/Emblem


Sir_Gawain, thank you suggesting sending a items like that. The increased cost of
postage(if any) would be insignificant especially on 1st Class mail which is what I
prefer no matter where I send it. I'm zeroing in 1 of 3 "Maine" themed cards. Lots
to choose from ! Most fun in the year even though I admit, being an energetics
type, I will always have Independence Day(4th Of July) in my heart. Let me know
when y'all are ready so I can get my card order in !




From opening of NCIS New Orleans - It goes a BOOM ! BOOM ! BOOM ! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

@jsum_1 do you have an estimate of the number of participants?

I'm going to take a dog to the vet for an I&D today, so now I'm too broke for a gift but not for a Christmas card. :P

You can send me one of your cards, @MadHatter, and I'll send you one of mine.

Sign up anyway, bnull.
I will see what we can arrange.


I was going to send some emails out to everyone who has participated in years past. Life is hectic and I can't see myself getting to it.
So, just a general encouragement - don't miss out.

You have a couple of days. I will do allocations on the weekend.

Thank you, @j_sum1. That's very kind of you. But a card is perfect. Until I get around to build a new cabinet, I'm out of space.

Well, bnull. You still need to sign up so that I have your address to pass on to Madhatter.


I have just received a very generous offer open to those in the US.
If anyone wants to participate, but is flat out broke or just can't jpin in, there is a member here with some surplus stuff that he is happy to box up and offload on your behalf as a secret santa gift to someone else.

Yeah, you read that right.

I will add an extra line to the form and if you want to participate on those terms, then you can join in.

It is Thursday here and I will close registratikns Saturday. Youhave two more days.
Sign ups now exceed last years, so that is good.

I sign up first time this year. I once sent package to Vano (we were exchanging some chemicals) and my package didn't arrived. It later appeared back at my place, but I felt like an absolute idiot. So fingers crossed that everything gets delivered properly.

Hey all.
Allocations have now been sent out.
If there are any glitches, please let me know. (And there might be some. I had some missing addresses and my cut and paste skills have been lacking this evening.)

Hey Buddy, please check your email. The U2U glitched for some reason.
MadHatter, I will send those addresses for cards soon.

I will now go ahead and close the registration form.
The real fun starts!

Awesome! Thanks for getting this together, j_sum1! It’s definitely one of the highlights of this year.

Canada Post is now on strike, so Canadian santees and the santees of Canadian may have to be extra patient.

(Raid- if you PM your address to j_sum1, you might still end up with a postcard.)

I have once again missed the registration date.

If there's someone else who missed it who would like to maybe trade a small box of gifts, DM me with U2U sometime before.. December 10th or so.

Almost done boxing up my gift. The main part of my box is done, so now to fill up the rest of the box with little things. I must admit, this has been some of the most fun i've had on a project yet. Thanks j_sum1 for setting this up!
