TrekBBS Secret Santa 2013

I think a mod should sticky this! Especially since it will be going on for a while.

 

That's a good idea, although I could just as easily bump this every week or so, too.

 

Just a reminder: registration for this closes on Wednesday, so if you want in, please sign up now!

 

Thanks for the reminder.

 

That's me signed up.

 

I was so confused because I couldn't find it looking at the topic list. Thanks for sticking this!

By the way, everyone, today is the deadline! Tomorrow morning, signups are closed and I will start handing out assignments.

 

You make it sound so serious!

 

SRS BSNSS

 

Everyone's assignments have been handed out. Please let me know when you've shipped your gifts! (Just don't post here who you bought for!)

 

Wooo, I'm excited!

 

Are we allowed to ask how many people are participating this year?

 

There are 10.

Also, I am telling you individually, but here is a general reminder:

When you get your gift, please don't open it until I know that everyone has theirs. I'm setting January 1st as "opening day" unless I know everyone has their gifts already, at which point I will probably move it up. It'd be cool to open everything on the 25th, as long as everyone has their gifts by then.

 

I thought it would be higher than that Have more people taken part in previous years?

 

This is the first year that I remember us doing this at TrekBBS. I think Robert mentioned that he's seen it at other message boards. I might be wrong though. If it has been done here before I did not participate.

 

I'm not aware of this being done here in the past. I'm hoping that, if this year is a success, we can have more next year!

 

I hope it's a success.

 

Hey quick question

When preparing the gift do we identify ourselves on the card? Or are we supposed to remain 'secret santas' until unwrapping day?

 

It's fine to put who you are on the card.

 

Shame I didn't see this sooner. Looks like fun.
