When Christmas comes in August, it happens over a weekend and across two days. This year, Christmas came on August 13th and August 14th (by GMT time).
Overall, 299 people participated and those 299 gave out a total of 6,178 gifts. By comparison, only 5,110 gifts were given out from November 2009 (when the gifts feature was added) through August 12th, 2011. Of course, it helps that gifts now only cost 50 points each, but it's still a remarkable achievement. By the way, gifts will continue to cost only 50 points each.
The top 10 gifters were:
1. JabberHut: 544
2. Hannah: 508
