Oh, fun fun fun fun fun times! : D
I remember we did this back in grade three.
But my 'Santa' didn't get me a present.

Anyway.
My idea, is that anyone who wants to participate in this event just post in here.
And I recommend that if you just join this guild to participate in the Secret Santa, that you rethink it again. >_> I will be checking your guild posts.
: D But that's no warning to our regulars out there.

Anywho.
I was thinking that one person has a Santa, but be the Santa for someone who is not their Santa.
;-; Which, of course, is going to be a long and complicated process, but. You know what I mean? If someone has a simplier idea, then by all means.
And I forget the other three people who are planning this as well. xD; *somewhat dumb*
I think two of them are Asashina and Shindig.
But I am not positive.
Edit: Chibi! I forgot you! gonk
If I have this all wrong or forgot someone else, please remind meee.
I'm a bit scatter brained. ;-; And I'll feel bad if I forget someone.

Anyway.
Post your ideas. Or your undying praise of our intellegence.

...

Just kidding.
:]

Edit: And maybe to not ruin the fun, I'll PM you who you're buying for, and I won't participate.
Cause it's no fun having someone who participates knowing who's buying for who and whatever.
D: No fun in that.
But if the number of participants are an odd number, I'll join in.

I was supposed to be one of the planners for it... but I don't have to be. :/ One thing you could do [just a suggestion] is assign a number to all the participants once they've been gathered. Then, just use a random number generator... Also... are we just buying one big gift to be delivered on a certain day...?

Dx Yes! You were the other one.
Sorry. *sweatdrop*

And that's a good idea. 3nodding Much easier.

Um.
Maybe we just send the trades at Christmas? Or whenever is convinient for the person sending the gift?

Maybe we could pick a couple days that is convenient for everyone. Like... the 14th - 16th or something. Then there wouldn't be someone sending a gift on the 10th but then not receiving one until the 30th...? We could do a poll to see what days are the best...?

If we do one big gift, maybe we could set, I dunno, like a price range? Say, over 20k but no more than 30k or something like that... That will hopefully eliminate giving a gift for 10k but getting one worth 50k...?

I also thought, anyone who signs up should try to make a little list of what they might want? You know, just four or five things... I have a really hard time picking out gifts for people I don't know. I'd much rather pick from a list, but since this is Secret Santa, I couldn't PM someone and be like... "what do you want?" My mom's work did this when they did Secret Santa and she says it's MUCH easier.

Meeeeeeeeee! (Count me in!)

I was also gonna help >>;

I think we should do the Gift Giving system, but label the gifts we give to people as "From Your Secret Santa! Merry Christmas!" Or something along those lines... Something that states it's specifically from the Secret Santa and not a random haxxor giving you haxxored items.

The people who were gonna organize this was Chibi, Grinny, Myself-y, and I think Shindiggy >.>

If we do things in trades then it'll give away who the Secret Santa is, and I for one don't want to do 20 different trades to people who gave me their gifts
gonk It'll get too confusing =o=

I think we should also have a deadline for this. For people joining and signing up for this event, it should be like.. December 10th for the signing up? That's -plenty- of time to sign up (even those who briefly sign on). That'll give us organizers enough time to get a number generator program from online and PM the people of who they need to get gifts for 3nodding

Any thoughts? :3

I think the day(s) people should send the gifts should be between the 20th-31st. That's plenty of time in case people have been busy with work or school, and they can get gifts when they're on Christmas Vacation (or have a day off work). It doesn't necessarily -have- to be on Christmas.. just in the Christmas area.. like when the Christmas Event ends or something 3nodding

I will definetly put up a poll asking when we should be sending the gifts.
And I think the deadline being the 10th is a good idea. I had that in mind as well. xD
And the giftbox thing. And they can make it anonymous if they want to. :] It would be alot easier, I agree.

And a list is a good idea too, Chibi. :] Definetly alot easier than guessing. xD
And maybe the price range should be between 10k anad 20k? D:
So then we don't make people broke while participating in this.
Should we do a poll for that too? Just in another thread someone starts? xD

I like the thought of a deadline. That way people can't be signing up on like the 20th. n.n I think a good price range is from 10k to 20k, or maybe even 15k to 20k (again, you don't want someone getting a 10k gift who gave a 20k one, right?). Or, even 10k to 15k if we want to keep it fairly low..?

If the deadline is from like the 20th to the 31st, that's a lot of time. There's probably no need to vote on it. Since it's quite a bit of time, most people should be able to get on even a couple of times... right?

I also agree with the gift thing, but I think we should keep them annoymous. Then on the 31st, we can have a big "reveal who you santa-ed" party.

And I love the party idea! : D
Get togethers are fuuuun.
(We should have a New Years party during that time too. But that's a completely different subject.)

Mm, maybe the deadline should be on the 15th, so it's right between yours and Shina's suggestion?
Any time is fine for me, as long as it's not after the 20th.

We were four, I remember.
Methinks it was Sagey, Grin,
Chibi and myself.
But I'm not really sure.





I'm flat broke, and I won't
even be around enough
to be active in this whole
thing. Somebody had suggested
to make a mule for the
people who couldn't give
the gifts themselves, but
it wouldn't be the same.

So I've decided not to
participate. I can, however,
do that thing that Grinny
was going to do. Y'know
assign the secret santa's
and stuff.
If that's ok, I mean.

Lemme see if I can find
the old thread. I know I
just saw it when I was
looing for the thread about
the subforums {which,
incidentally, I haven't
found yet, heh}.

Woot!
Found it.

Y'see, it started with
Sagey being uber
generous, and it
became a guild thing.

I want to, yet I am also poor. Shoot, well, I'll think of something!
If y'all need any help, I'll be glad to offer my services, but I think you may have it covered here. =]
