(Yes, I changed accounts just so I could use my Christmas icon.)
It's that VERY SPECIAL TIME OF YEAR AGAIN!!! Every year, we do an OOC Secret Santa gift exchange. The way this works is pretty easy. You sign up in this post by
midnight on Saturday, November 28th. By doing so, you will be assigned a Secret Santa to make you a gift, and you'll also be responsible for a gift for someone. Emails will go out on Sunday (Optimistically, anyway. I work retail, you guys.), telling you who your RNG-assigned Secret Santa is.
You will have until
December 23rd to make them gifts, and here's the catch -- you can't buy anything for them, with the exception of paid LJ time, or extra userpics, that sort of thing.
When you sign up, please include a list of things you'd like, as a note to your Secret Santa. For example:
Hello, Secret Santa!
First of all, happy holidays and thanks so very much for signing up to do this! To make your life just a touch easier, here are some ideas of things I might like!
Paid LJ time on any of my journals!(
canadianpopstar/
justwantsquiet/
auroryborealis/
notqueenyet/
weefeetbigboots, not to mention my rl journal,
holy_whatever)
I like crackfic about FH a whole ton!
I am always up for new music and my tastes are weird and unpicky awesome!
I'm otherwise easy!
Thanks in advance!
Love and kisses,
Erin
Links to these comments will be provided in the emails sent out this weekend, so that you'll be able to get right to work on your gifts.
You can make as many or as few things for your Secret Santa as is convenient for you, and the notes are, naturally, just guidelines -- you don't have to follow their wishlist to the letter! It's just to give you an idea. Please do remember that you signed up and are responsible for a gift for them, though.
On December 23rd, we'll do our reveal post, where you can give and receive your gifties! Yaaaay!
Wait for the OCD, omg. 'Tis up!
