Take part in the ORG's first Secret Santa!

[Marian...]

Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas!

Welcome to the ORG's first Secret Santa!

General information:
 • This is not an official GilmoreGirls.org project. It's simply run by Forum members. 
 • Forum members who are under 18 years of age require parent or guardian consent to participate.
 • The game is open to residents worldwide.

Dates:
- Participants must be members of the ORG forum before October 15th.
- Anyone who’d like to participate must sign up between November 5th and November 26th.
- Each Secret Santa will receive the mailing information between December 1st and 10th.

Also:
• One Secret Santa per participant.   
• The participants must be willing to provide Kamibear and Marian… with his or her mailing address (which will only be shared with the participant’s Secret Santa).
• If a participant sends his address and he changes his mind, he will be able to ask for the address back until November 26th.


How does the game work?

In order to sign up, you must send a Personal Message to Kamibear and Marian….  You will be asked for your mailing information, make sure you’re comfortable sharing it. In return, you will receive a confirmation note. 

Once we have the list of all participants, we will choose a Secret Santa for each. The selection will not be random: we will take into account the member’s recent posts in order to choose an appropriate org member.

The Secret Santa will get the mailing information of the participant he/she must send a gift to. We ask participants to send their gifts in time; hopefully every member will get his present on December 25th.


Gifts

Any gift is accepted. Since everyone should be able to afford the gift and the shipping costs, we recommend small, meaningful and cheap ones, with a letter. A small present can fit in an envelope, so the shipping will cost the same as a letter.


Giving out your mailing information

We realize you may feel insecure about giving your mailing address to strangers. For that reason, Kamibear and I promise not to even look at the addresses; just send them to the Secret Santa. We also promise to choose a Secret Santa that you trust. If you’re still insecure, you can ask for the list of participants after November 26th and point out the ones you feel comfortable giving your address to.


Any questions can be asked in this thread or by PM, but please keep the posts on topic.

Let the fun begin!

Hey Marian and Kami, I'm interested - however I'm still a bit nervous about passing out my address....hmmmmm.....  I do like the virtual idea and stuff though....give me some time to think about it.  Are you going to put the list of participants up here?

yup, the complete list will be put up. and yeah i can understand being iffy about the address thing. which is why it was thought up that you can choose names who you feel comfy with.

[MasBYUgal]

Well I still need to think about it, I mean ever since the KrishLEigh incident, I'm a bit nervous!  Good luck!

Thanks! You have three weeks to think about it. As Kami said, the fact that you can choose names (Keith's brillant idea) is hopefully going to make you feel more comfortable about it.

Krisleigh's recovery and Krisleigh never existed. It was an unfortunate event.

We also promise to choose a Secret Santa that you thrust.

So DIRTY! I love it!

You know what, I like this idea, if anyone is ballsy enough to come to Australia to stalk me, bring it on! I trust Marian and KamiBear and I have no qualms giving them my address, so count me in! I will PM you both shortly!!

Woo Hoo!

I'm kinda scared to give my address out to the internet and stuff so I'll PM you guys. Also, I can't send stuff to another country. Wait, I have to ask my parents first. They'll probably say no but whatever. I have money. Great idea guys!

In order to sign up, you must send a Personal Message to Kamibear and Marian….

Wait, I have to message both of you?

Any gift is accepted. Since everyone should be able to afford the gift and the shipping costs, we recommend small, meaningful and cheap ones, with a letter.

Don't you mean economical instead of cheap? Cheap just makes the gifts seem kind of, well... cheap.

Oh, and I think you should fix your typo of "trust" before anyone else makes any other dirty comments about it. =P

Whoa, that first elf is creepy!

I'm down. I love Secret Santa .

Same message, but it'd be better if you did. Easier for the organization.

Ooops. Thanks.
