Secret Santa 2016 Sign-Ups

S E C R E T S A N T A : 2 0 1 6 Last Day for Sign-Ups: December 15th 11:59 PST Hello one and hello all! Welcome to Secret Santa, a YWS event that has happened, on and off, for the past few years now, but something I would like to make an annual thing! This is an event in which you are assigned to be an anonymous Secret Santa to a member of the site. To enter, members will fill out the form below and post it in this topic. When the time comes, I will take all the names of the participants and put them into a hat, then randomly draw names and assign aforementioned name to a SS! I will then send you the name of your recipient and it's now YOUR job to complete a gift for them. It's a very fun thing to do, something you have all probably done at least once in your lives (I hope). Before we can get to the form, though, there are some rules. These terms are final and non-negotiable. Violation of these rules will result in your disqualification from the event, so listen close and listen well, because ignorance will not be taken as an excuse! 01: You are to keep the name of your recipient anonymous. After the event is over (and that's when I say it's over), anyone is allowed to come forward and share the name of their recipient, either publicly or privately. This is not mandatory; if you wish to not know or to keep your recipient private, then you are more than welcome to. Sharing the name of your recipient either with friends or with the recipient before the event is over is not allowed, period. It's SECRET Santa, peopleee. 02: Do not enter this event if you do not have the time to finish your gift. It isn't fair that you'll receive a gift and someone else won't because of whatever excuse you have to give. It's not cool, so don't do it. 03: If, for some reason, you need to drop out of the event or you know that there will be a delay with turning in your gift, then PM me right away. 04: All gifts will not involve any sort of real-life transaction of goods or money. There should be no exchanging of addresses, Paypal accounts, etc. Any requests for such information should be immediately reported to a staff member. YWS is not responsible for any off-site transactions. 05: Please respect your SS' form. If they say they don't like something, don't do it. If they request something, do your best to fill that request. It's up to you to explore that person's profile to get a better idea of what they're like if you don't quite know them that well. Subtly asking them questions is fine, but be cautious and don't make them suspicious! Just do your best to make a gift they will like and I promise that they will appreciate you for it. :) 06: There will be no requests for a new name draw. Take what you get and make the most of it. This event is to help open you to new friendships, not so it can be dominated by cliques. 07: Please post your completed form here. 08: PLEASE be appreciative of what you get. This person put a LOT of hard work into making something for you, so be nice and enjoy what you've got. 09: HAVE FUN! Okay, now for the best part... the form! Please copy and paste this form, fill it out, and then post it in this thread. [b]Username:[/b] [b]Name/Alias:[/b] [b]Interests:[/b] [b]Color Preferences:[/b] [b]Where do you spend most of your time on YWS?:[/b] [b]Favorite Artists/Songs/Shows/etc.:[/b] [b]Favorite Books/Fandoms:[/b] [b]Preferred Type of Gift:[/b] Gif set, graphic, writing, etc. [b]What Do You NOT Want to Get?:[/b] As in, disliked fandoms/ships, colors you don't like, etc. Please do not put "I don't want a crappy gift" or anything like that. Be nice or Santa will give you coal. [b]Other:[/b] I forgot to say that by entering and COMPLETING this event, you are eligible for a December Event badge, made by the lovely @Aley! Please note that failing to complete a gift will result in you not getting a badge. Have fun, you crazy kids!

@DragonWriter22 Hope you enjoyed the mess of words I threw at you. Apologies if it wasnt up to standard, I'm mentally broken in several areas and what I write suffers from that.

@Iggy was mine but she should know that since I sent her the msg. Who was mine?!?!

I bought a cactus. A week later it died. I got depressed because I thought Damn, I am less nurturing than a desert.

@tigeraye I hope you liked your drawing!

I have a hunch as to who mine was, but we'll see if I'm right.

We're all stories in the end.

I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff.

@KiraThePotatoChip I loved the story! It made me laugh

@DeepRoses was my Secret Santa! I hoped you enjoyed the drawing, though my skills aren't really up to par.

No. For the last time, I don't write on dragons!

I am the Night Rider! Wait, I mean the Night Writer! Ah, no. Well, I do write at night, but... I am the Knight Writer of the Green Room! There we go.
