While you wait for everyone to post their wishes in the Mirror of Erised, you can begin right away sending ChristmaHanaQuanzika Greetings!
This is open to all Guild members, mods, prefects and students!
You can send "Haven Holiday (or ChristmaHanaQuanzika) Greetings" to all your housemates, to friends throughout the Guild, to folks who are active on Gaia but haven't been active recently in Haven--and to friends not yet in the Guild, etc. (thank you to SuperKoolPartyGal101 for the phrase "ChristmaHanaQuanzika" and reminding us that not everyone celebrates Christmas).
Gaze at the Mirror of Erised Wish List and be a "Secret Santa" to as many people as you can.
For each Greeting you post on someone's profile, you get one chance at the Grand Prize.
For each Greeting you receive on your profile, you get one chance.
Each time you receive a Gift, you get one chance.
For each Gift you give, you get one chance!
For each donation you give to Accio Funds, you get one chance.
So How does it Work?
This is a numbered thread.
Gifting: Go to the Mirror of Erised Holiday Wish List and choose someone to gift.
Remember to check the "anonymous box" when gifting - you are a Secret Santa, after all! You can pick anyone, doesn't have to be only from your house. There are a lot of nice people in our Guild!
Post here and number your thread each time you give a gift: I gifted a Ravenclaw, I gifted a Hufflepuff etc. (After Christmas we will have the opportunity to reveal what we gave to whom).
GREETINGS: Go to the Guild Banners sticky in the main forum and choose a small Holiday banner. (Choose a larger one and put it in your signature). Use the smaller banner at the end of a Greeting expressing Holiday wishes that you post in the Comments section of someone's profile. You can choose different banners to send to different people. Keep track of the Greetings you send and the Gifts you give. Come back here each time you post a greeting on someone's profile).
You must use a Haven Banner in the post on someone's profile for your Greeting to count! Here is a sample, and there are more in the next post.
I'm owling you to wish you all the best in the New Year and to invite you to visit Haven for Harry Potter Fanatics during the Holidays. Please help us pick the best Holiday banner and win a December 07 letter, a Wizard's wand, or a pile of gold! Come dance at the Yule Ball! Click on the Marauder's map below which is a Portkey to our Guild! Example
You post 5 greetings, give 2 gifts, receive one gift and donate 25g to Accio Funds. You've earned 12 chances to win the Grand Prize! The post above you says Post 22-25.
You post your details:
Post 26-38: I gifted a Ravenclaw and a Gryffindor, sent 5 greetings, got one gift, and donated 25g to AccioFunds. It was totally worth it! I was gifted an OMG box. Inside was an Ancient Chest, and in that was a WTF hat!!!! which I was totally hoping for!
You keep gifting and posting through January 1, and then we'll draw for the grand prize.
The next post gives examples of Holiday Greetings to post, or you can make up your own using one of the small Guild Holiday banners.
Also, remember to choose a Guild Holiday banner to put in your signature.
It'll be worth TEN house points - 5 house points towards the House Cup given out on the Winter Solstice, and if you have a Holiday banner in your signature on January 1, it will be 5 more points towards the new term's House Cup.
Go to the Guild Banners thread to get the code for a Holiday banner and pick up extra House points! (As well as make Gaia more festive)!
