Latest Update The lost santa has been found. XD; After asking everyone and badgering info out of people, we've found the one person who did not give a gift.
...Because they haven't logged on since the 20th. >.>;
This will be resolved as I myself make a gift for the person who didn't get one. heart
Again, Thanks for making this years Santa great and I hope we can do this again in 07!

  Spread the Cheer Around
This is the place to Give and Recieve this season within the GCSG Guild! Share a happy holiday by contributing a gift and then gettting one later from someone. ^_^ It's really quite fun. Mr. Sellophane (Bialy) was going to make one, but I never noticed it get set up. o.o
Timetable:
December 2nd. - Signups Begin December 10th. - End Of Signups December 10th. - Random Selection of Santas December 11th - 23rd. - Purchase/Prepare a Gift December 24th - 28th. - Exchange Gifts.
Updates 12/2/06 - Signups Started 12/5/06 - Reached 30 People
INDEX: I. Introduction, Updates, and Index II. What is it? III. Rules IV. How To Sign Up V. Registered Participators VI. Special Thanks
Old Status The list is of Santas is gone.
I had it in an excel document. It didn't save. So had I relied on my outbox for who had who. Apparently yesterday, my outbox felt it wasn't needed anymore and deleted all those sent PMs. So I have NO list. XD;
And since some people are not getting gifts, I have to ask everyone to talk to me. So If you did not get a gift, PM Me. If you got one or gave one, PM me too. I'll see who did what. I know some Santas, and as I get info, the list will be updated with who was whose santa and whether a gift was sent. I will then see who didn't fess up and stare meanly at them until they explain it.
Thanks for cooperating!
I think that the project was very nice this year since I got so much positive feedback in the thread. <3 Thanks for making the SG Secret Santa 06 a sucess!

II. What is it?
What is a Secret Santa?
A Secret Santa is a fun event between friends where you get a gift for someone else. People sign up to give a gift and then a match is randomly selected from the other participants. They go and get a gift within the set budget and wrap the gift. (We can't do that on Gaia anymore.) They then give the gift on Christmas to the person they were chosen to give it to and get a gift either from the same person or someone else. Everyone is happy.
Okay, what do I do?
Well, you first get the form below and fill it out. Be sure that you really want to give someone a gift and have the money and commitment to do so and post it in the thread. I will go and add your name to the list and you wait to see who you get. After you get your name, check them out and see what they would want (within the budget and reason). Buy a gift and wait for the exchange date. On the date, jump out with a trade and suprise them. Enjoy the laughter and fun.
What if I'm not here on the exchange date?
You should tell me first before that happens. Tell me how long you will be gone incase you have to leave for a relative's or such. I moved the date for something like that but should you stay longer, notify me beforehand of your parent's travel length plans.
How about if I sign up, get a gift, but don't feel like giving one?
If you sign up and do the above, you have lost the respect of all your peers and my respect. Signing up means you follow the rules and buy a gift. If you do not feel like giving anything, don't even bother filling out the signup form.
What can I give?
You can give anything like an item on their wishlist, something that is their favorite color, or even get them art from a nice artist. Anything goes as long as it is in fact a gift. Preferably an item or art please, no IOUs.

III. Rules
1. Follow Gaia T.O.S. and no flaming in the thread.
2. The Budget for this Secret Santa is something worth between the amounts of 4-10k. If you go over, that's okay, but do not be giving anyone a donation item for it and expect to get anything like it in return.
3. If you are not going to get a gift for someone else or not commit to it, do not join.
4. Stay within the budget!
5. Don't tell your Secret Santa who you are before your date! And if you tell someone else who if you are asking what they like, make sure you trust them enough not to tell who you are giving it to!
6. Stay calm and collected when you recieve your gift. Do not harass them for what they gave you.

That and content could take a while so it'd look like a useless thread. >>
BTW, do you happen to own a Jolly hat?
