No, seriously. All we did was beg and plead all over town to give YOU gifts on OUR birthday but, actually, we don’t deserve any credit. We have to thank all those generous sponsors that gave in to our threats and whimpers and kindly accepted to bestow amazing presents upon you, our kind readers. And we’d like to thank you, too, for sticking around (some of you for the whole seven years) week after week. The best part about these gifts? You asked for them thanks to our clever (if a bit complex) wish-list system. For once, winners are going to get the gifts they really wanted!
