'll pretty-ize everything one the info is up. ;D
FAQ.
What do you mean, RL?
Real Life. You know, mail. Snailmail.
BUT ISN'T THAT UNSAFE AND BAD?
No, and ..... we'll say no. Or maybe. It shouldn't be. I'm handling addresses through PMs. So it'll only be me and the person who draws you who will have your address. I'll change my pass to one no one knows (and I won't forget. xDDD). If you want proof that I'm really 15 and a pixie and not going to stalk you or rape you or something, I can give it, or find ways to give it. Just contact me. And if there are certain people who do this who you don't want having your address, we'll figure something out. If you don't want me to have your address, but are fine with others, we can still work that out. Just PM me.
But...my parents are ewwy. crying
I'm sorry. Maybe next year they won't be so ewwy? We'll think of you. OROROR, get a PO box, or use a friend or relative who doesn't mind it. THE NOT MINDING IT IS IMPORTANT.
I don't live in the states. Can I still participate?
If you're in canada. And for you Hawaii-ans and Alaskans (do we have any?), sorry. I don't think it'll work for you. Or our europeans, unfourtunatly. Water isn't a cheap thing to send mail over, nor is it fast.
But, how does it work?
People sign up. After you sign up, PM me with the name you want on the letter, and your address. After a certain number of people sign up (Undecided thus far), I'll give everyone someone to send gifties to. This will be determined by either RNG, or pixie closing her eyes and jabbing randomly at the list of people with a pointy object. I then will PM you with the username, Envalope name, and address of the person you are to give secret gifties to. Everyone gives gifts and such. There'll be a spending limit. And then send one big letter to them to be recieved sometime after, but not too after Christmas day, saying who you are. They get it and are like OMGSURPRIZEDANDSHOCKEDANDHAPPY.=D The end.
You mentioned a spending limit? What if I want to buy my secret santa a Wii?
Well, if your secret santa is me, SURE! But if it's anyone else, try to limit total money spent to $30 Lots of people are uber poor, so gifts consisting of nothing you paid for are just fine, too. Just...no Wii's or PS3s or engagement rings or anything like that.
What kinds of things would I send?
Light things, because even sending a friggen cookie'll cost you an extra 14 cents. Hand drawn art is nice. Stupid arts and crafts. Non melting food, snow (or not). Candy. Don't send meltable things if you know your secret santa comes from somewhere not cold and snowy. No, just don't send meltable things. Be creative. Things like that. I'm not being creative, if you could tell.
What if I don't have money for postage?
I'll try and figure something out. See if you can beg, borrow, and steal from friends and relitives houses, and your moms purse. Same with money, and then go buy stamps. If I have stamps at hand, I'll mail you some. If other people have stamps, I'll bully them into sending you some.
