Secret Santa - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

swedeace · 11-08-2005, 07:14 PM

This is an idea I have participated in on another forum. I figure there is a good enough number of people who know one another. The game is Secret Santa. If you have never played before, only YOU know whose name you receive, so you can read hints/clues as to what your recipients wishes to receive. The gift would have to be between $5 to $10.

I can volunteer to raffle and keep track of who gets who. So anyway.... If you are interested, here is what you have to do:

PM me your physical mailing address BEFORE November 25th (Thanksgiving day is the last day to enter)

On Friday, November 25th (the day AFTER Thanksgiving), I will raffle the names and then PM the person each participant gets.

Each person interested MUST write or give hints of WHAT they wish to receive for a gift. Remember: the gift must be between $5-$10 so it's fair for everyone.

It's suggested that participants mail off their gifts BY December 20th so it gets to the other participant on time before Christmas.

After Christmas, you can then post who you "think" is your Secret Santa. This makes the game exciting. Please be fair and ONLY participate if you are willing to purchase and mail off the gift. It's only fair that if you want to receive a gift, you must send a gift too. Only serious players, please. I realize this is a bit early, but I figure it gives enough time to decide if you want to join AND to purchase, wrap and mail your gift.

So, who's in?
