So who's your Secret Santa?!
Check it out!
Here's some Secret Santa FAQ:
What is Secret Santa?
Secret Santa is a Western Christmas tradition, in which members of a group or community are randomly assigned a person to whom they anonymously give a gift. Often practised in workplaces, or amongst large families, participation in it is usually voluntary. It offers a way for many people to give and receive a gift at low cost to those involved. (Taken from Wikipedia)
Who can join?
Everyone, as long as you love DC and are willing to spend some time to make or search for a gift for your baby! The more, the merrier! Remember, once you sign up, it is obligatory to give a gift! Tears are a no-no during the holidays!
What kind of gifts should we give?
Anything Detective Conan, ergo, the possibilities are endless! You may write a fanfic, create an artwork like a banner, an AMV or a wallpaper, search for a DC song that your baby likes, etc.
Can we create wishlists?
Yes, you may! Just make a post here or PM me. I'll be constantly updating this post.
But to make everything more exciting, instead of telling us what you specifically want, list the top 3 DC characters that you would like to see in your gift. (Remember that not everyone is a writer or an artist.) That way, your Santa has the freedom to create something for you with your favourite characters in it! Of course, your Santa can add more if s/he wanted to!
So when do we start?
I say right now! Remember the dates:
November 23rd
I will PM everyone on the list to remind them that they have signed up for the event
November 25th
Last day of signing up, dropping out and/or populating your wishlist. That's 12 days from now so that's enough time for everyone to think. In the meantime, check out the profile of the participants or their wishlist, know more about them and picture what you will be creating for each one!
November 26th
You will be PMed the name of your baby and their wishlist. To assure everyone that we will be paired randomly, I will be using this program: http:// sant.as/ to draw the names
December 18th - 23rd
Gift-giving, yay! Everyone will be busy during the holidays so there's a one-week leeway for everyone to give and receive their gifts. The deadline is also a month from when you receive the name of your baby so that's plenty of time! Don't forget to post here or send me a note where your gift resides, mm-kay?
Uploading your gift:
1) Create a thread in the appropriate section in the forum. Name it anything you want. Don't let anyone know who it's for yet!
2) PM me the link to your gift. (Reply to the PM that I sent you on who you're giving the gift to.)
December 24th
The Big Reveal! On Christmas Eve, I will update the list with gifts and their receivers.
And there you go! Always remember that with this type of events, it's always the thought that counts! It's not some competition on who gave better gifts to whom but rather a means of spreading some DC cheers and love!
Let the fun begin! ^^
