I'm taking over for Sarah this year, but we're doing the 2016 edition of our annual secret santa.

Heres the signup link! (https://www.elfster.com/exchange/view/20433399/e4ad8e/)

A few things though, we have had a few problems in previous years where some folks never sent out a gift. THAT ISNT OK. Many members here put a lot of effort into their gifts and it's really disheartening when you send something and you never receive one. That being said don't sign up if you're not 100% confident that you can participate. Additionally I know that we have a lot of international members here so if you never signed up because you were afraid of shipping costs just let me know when I can make sure that you are matched with someone from your own country.

The deadline for sign-ups will be November 30, I will match everyone up that day, and obviously we want to try to make sure that we are sending all of our gifts to be received as close to December 25thas possible.

I reached out to Sarah to find out who screwed you last year. They won't be able to participate until they give you a gift.

Thanks, chances are they just ran out of money before being able to send anything my way and then got too anxious to say anything about it. Which is understandable. I don't care if they send me anything at this point but people should be wary of letting whoever it was join in this year.

I'll call it even if they just take a photo of themselves with a dunce hat on and share it in here :)

This is depressing. I think I'm going to make this a 6 member minimum. We need 3 more folks by the 30th!

Ryan

@kleiner352 (http://www.echoingthesound.org/community/member.php?u=4417) are you in?
Wolfkiller might be interested too.

You need to drum up some fake NIN story on twitter so more people are visiting the board.

well, i never thought i would say this in such a public place BUT...can't we have a threesome? rofl. i am not exceptionally edumicated about secret satans...yet why can't three of us do it? one pressie each, from one person each.
damn it, janet.
i mean, sure it is going to be a tad easy to figure out who each secret satan is...but what does that truly matter? or does it?
ugh.

I can't take part :(

It's not because of being let down last year. It just because I can't afford to, which really sucks :( I hope more people sign up though!

I would like to participate. I'm just gonna be low on cash. I can't do my winter session class on the payment plan, and have to pay it all upfront. So there goes all of my fun money for December and most of January.

I would do this if I wasn't already struggling to afford gifts for everyone I know in real life, and that's not even mentioning the absolute terror of tony having my mailing address

would some of you be into a gift exchange in the new year, then? it is not so much about christmas, for me personally (my kids are past that santa stage, and i usually only truly do something for the solstice anyway), so much as tangible connections to the only social media group i belong to (and my longest running. woop woop).
if the possibility exists of doing a gift exchange with more ninnies, post christmas, i am down with that.
i don't want to wreck anything, nor strong arm the 2 min (ha. see what i did there? yeah. lame. i know. merry christmas, y'all. lol) into this.
so, just wondering if others could and would at a later date? a secret SATAN doesn't have to be just at christmas, right?
thoughts? :) :x

thanks tony <3

I just came here to ask if we were doing something. Tony, lets get a thread going for this year and let this one die off...so what if we continue the exchanging of gifts into the new year
