This thread is for questions and discussions regarding Secret Santa - post here and @OrabellaAvenue and I will endeavour to answer! Don't post your signup here, do that in the Secret Santa thread.

Please remember that there should be no discussing anything revealing, such as who your recipient is! Santas will stay a secret until the event is over :smt001

Alright, hi, hello, total newbie to this site here with a question(s); :')

To enter the Secret Santa, do you simply reply to the thread/post? Is it supposed to show up to everyone, or will it only show up to the person who created the thread/post?

Are we expected to make something virtually - as in art, writings, etc.? Or is this a gift submitted to their profile/wall?

If you're referring to this:
Screenshot_20231201-185140.png

No, I think we're going with something more meaningful to the recipient. This kind of gift can be given to anyone, and isn't very personal and probably not what the recipient wants.

If you're looking for ideas on what to give someone, you can take a look at their list, first of all, but I know many users give each other drawings or poems about the user.

Let me know if this doesn't answer your question, you can't see the picture, or you have another question. Thank you so much for asking for clarification! ^^

Hi @teatiime! Good questions!

I believe they will be assigned either December 15th or a few days after, depending on when we can get them out.

When submitting your gift, I'd assume you can PM it to either me or @IcyFlame. Or just Icy... I'm guessing that either of us is fine.

Yep ^ - we'll pop you a message when signs up close so you know who you're making your gift for!

Gifts can be sent to either (or both) of us, and we'll make sure the elves deliver it on time :)

@GengarIsBestBoy I'm tagging you because I forgot to tag you and I edited the post but I don't think that works, so here I am with an explanation that doesn't really make sense. :)

I have a question - in the PM, can we put a message for the recipient, or do we have to just send the gift?
The problem with quotes found on the internet is that they are often not true.
