Secret Santa | 270 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 (edited) Ho Ho Ho! Ish that time of the year onesh again! Shorry I'm a bit late, but Shanta got caught up early in daylight shavings time! Welcome to the third annual VGSh Shecret Shanta! If you would like to participate, pleash read through the following directionsh (I'll drop my Connery accshent for a moment sho the rulesh are clear): 1- Send Secret Santa a PM with your real name, your address, and a LIST of items that are $50 or less. The more specific the better. If I get any of these lists with all $100+ items on them, I won't even ask you for a revised list; you'll just be out of this year's Secret Santa. Because that's naughty. And not even a sexy kind of naughty. 1a- Also please indicate if you can ship internationally. It does require you to be a bit more prompt on shipping due to how long it will take to reach its destination. 2- Once I receive your list, you will be entered into the SS participant list. 3- Signups will end at 10:00 pm Eastern on Tuesday November 15th. That's a whole 10 days, it shouldn't take you THAT long to get your list in order. 4- Santa hopes to have recipients matched up and your lists sent out by end of day November 18th if not earlier. Santa and any helpers (see e.g. elves) will try to get it done earlier due to the time constraints! 5- Once your gifts are shipped, please PM Santa with the tracking number! This is very important, so don't lose it. 6- Deadline to ship in your own country is Dec 9th. International is Dec 2rd. (I understand that's a quick turnaround for those with international recipients, but we also have to consider international shipping times.) 7- Have fun! I'll post a reveal thread Christmas morning for you to show off your goodies, but no revealing before! Also, as tempting as it may be, it's no fun to open it early! Throw it under the tree, Santa knows when you've opened it early... Also, Santa has some basic rules to follow: 1. In order to participate, you must have joined VGS before this thread was made and you must have posted a few times. 2. PLAN ON BUYING SOMETHING. Don't assume you can just pull some stuff off your shelf. 3. Plan on spending a minimum of $60-75 before shipping. Take that into consideration before buying your recipient that limited edition, gold plated, KFC gaming console. If you don't want to take this seriously or plan on being a grinch, don't bother signing up. 4. DO NOT MESSAGE YOUR RECIPIENT. If you need clarification, please reach out to Secret Santa. 5. No public complaining about your gift/list/etc. People generally try their best with these things, but if you have a legitimate complaint, PM either Santa or VGS site staff. 6. We reserve the right to refuse Secret Santa entry to anyone. This will especially apply if you've been on Santa's naughty list before. Don't be a grinch, being such may result in your inability to participate in future years (it will also give Santa a mad headache). 7. Try to be prompt, especially with international shipping. Due to the particular pandemic that is happening globally, it seems to be taking longer for packages to reach their destination. And keep in mind that this time of year is rather difficult on postal workers, try to get stuff in before the massive rush. 8. It is REALLY not recommended to do drop shipping. It can be confusing to the person receiving the gift and they may just open it up early. On top of that, if the wrong thing is shipped or gets damaged due to bad seller packing, it can lead to a bummer of a Christmas gift. 9. Also we STRONLY ask that you post in the reveal thread, to share what you received and express gratitude to your Santa for their efforts to send you something nice. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here or send me a message. Merry Chrishmash!

I just wanted to let y'all know, that I'm not mentioning the thing I started in the Secret Santa thread. It isn't really connected to the Secret Santa and I don't want there to be any confusion about that, nor for the picture thing to get intertwined with the official SS event. Hopefully no hard feelings, but I wanted to at least explain why I'm not mentioning it. I have the separate signup thread so people can discuss there of course. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
