Sorry for the late start this year guys, but it is still manageable.

Any last minute participants are welcome...

Hooray another year of Secret Santas!

So for those of you who haven't done this before here's how this works:

Post in here that you want to join up, then send me a PM with: your name (real name is preferred, only use an alias if it's absolutely necessary), your address, and your preference for whether you'd accept an international Santa-ee. The PM is the important part. If you don't PM me you don't get on the list, that simple.

Later after I have closed sign ups you will receive your Santa-ee from me! You then send a gift to that person, and wait patiently for your gift to arrive from your Santa. This is really quite fun, and brings the board together.

RULES
1. Sign ups will end December 13, 12:01AM PST. Check your PMs on the 13th to find out who you have drawn.

2. Plan to send your gift by December 20 please (earlier for international shipments), that way there shouldn't be any issue with shipping and it might arrive before Christmas and look good under the tree. You MUST send your gift BEFORE Dec 24, 2012. This is where hardship cases can redeem themselves; better late than never, but I don't like dealing messages about why Member X hasn't received a gift and it's January 8th. If you sign up, please follow through.

(Due to the late nature of this year's game, expecting all gifts to be delivered before Christmas is probably not realistic, just do your best and be patient)

3. Get a delivery confirmation number and keep all receipts for your gift and shipping! Take pictures of you buying your gift and shipping it if you'd like, the more evidence you have the better. Seriously, it helps clear up issues and has been needed in the past.

3. HAVE FUN! Remember this is supposed to be a fun activity. If this doesn't sound like fun to you don't sign up.

4. There is no maximum amount you can spend on your Santa-ee. The minimum amount you should spend is $10, $20 is nice. Do unto others applies here. DON'T COMPLAIN IF YOU SENT SOMEBODY AN ARB BUMPER AND GOT A DVD. Times are tough, so if you can give do so! But don't be expecting a lavish gift in return.

5. Put some thought into what you send your Santa-ee. There will be a separate thread to post your wish list after all of the Santa-ee's have been sent out.

6. HAVE FUN! I thought it would be good to put this twice. :D

7. If you haven't been a member for at least three months and/or do not have recent forum activity you won't be allowed to participate. Sorry, but this is a precaution to prevent deadbeat Santas. (subject to interpretation. PM me)

I will put up a list here that will be updated daily of who has signed up. If you think your name should be on the list but it isn't assume you have messed up somewhere and send me another PM.

Definitions
Santa: He who sends the gift
Santa-ee: He who receives the gift

You will be somebody's Santa and somebody else's Santa-ee, got it? If not please ask somebody else to explain it to you. :D

Mostly plagerized from SC88Pathy. He did a hell of a job back then and I see no point in trying to recreate his intro. We have had fun and 100% follow through in all the previous years, so I'm sure it'll be the same this one.

Sorry for the long spiel but it saves on the questions. FYI, this isn't about religion it's a gift exchange, so whatever your belief is, no reason not to join on that account. ;)
