Latest Update!: Ok, PMOG Secret Santa is a go! If you're interested to join the fun and let your inner benefactor shine, visit pmog.zousware.com, login, and enter your information.

You do not have to fill out every field, but the more information you enter, the better your loot will be! :)

Secret Santa will pair you up with another great PMOGian for loot exchange purposes. Santa keeps all secrets, and you'll have a chance to express all kinds of preferences. The spending limit for the gift exchange is US$20. Those who have already sent Secret Santa their information need not worry - it's being taken care of. I'll be accepting addresses and information until December 16th. Have fun!

Yay!

sounds great

NIce idea, except I'm not even doing the real thing this year - my wife and I got fed up of the whole circus last year so we're taking a break (and no, we're not religious).

I might be in for it.. Have to think of something cheap but fun to give as a gift. :D

I wish I could do this. I don't even have the moolah to buy presents for the people I know in the real world this year! I'll attempt to gift you all with mines. It's the best I can do.

I'd be in. Assuming we get a good group.

I can get into this, sounds like benefactorial fun.

Me too! I don't do christmas in the real world anymore (my family doesn't live near me and I prefert to spoil people on their birthdays rather than xmas) and one of my favourite things is to mail people stuff!!

I like the idea. How do we get started?

All righty, folks! This is now the official contact for all your PMOGian Secret Santa needs. Please pmail me with your snail mail addresses. I'll be accepting addresses until December 16th. You can, if you like, also include a short list of interests or a wish list. Please keep it simple: nothing extravagant or expensive. There is no guarantee that you'll get the goodies on your list, but it's nice to have ideas available for other folks.

If there's a specific person you *don't* want to be paired with, please let me know. Santa keeps all secrets, and will not make drama for you.

Your snail mail address will go to exactly two people: myself (and yes, I'm enigmagirl), and your looting partner. I will pair each person up with a Secret Santa partner - it is your solemn duty to send loot to your partner before the end of December.

Any other suggestions or comments? Let Santa hear them!

I've got a question. What if there are an odd number of participants?

If there are an odd number of participants, Santa will take up the odd shoat out and deliver their loot. Alternatively, if there are any participants who would like to gift to more than one person, they should indicate this to me.

Kinda hard to say who we don't want to be matched with if we don't have any idea who else is doing it, eh? Will there be an (official) public list of who's doing it posted (besides the vague yes-s and no-s that might pop up in this thread)?

Yes, I'll be posting an ongoing list of participant names, as I receive addresses.

As my finances are making that 'Neeeeeaaaaouurmmm' diving-airplane sound, I might not join until the last second. But I do want to join.

Will there be a price cap? I hate to be that guy, but...y'know, Neeeeeaaaaouurmmm...

i will knit something. and possibly send baked goods. it doesn't have to be expensive.

It's the thought that counts!

A really nice idea!

Were I a crafty/cheffy fellow, I'd do the same. Personal gifts are coolest! Sadly...

Because we want to keep this light and fun, we'll set a spending cap of $20. And very much, it is the thought that counts! Have fun, be creative. Crafty stuff, baked goods, mixed CDs, anything even vaguely PMOG-themed, all will be great gifts!

Update: Santa is now entrusting enigmagirl to keep the nice list in the first post of this thread.

The list of verified participants. If you do not see your name on this list, but think it should be there, please get in touch with me.

Is this open to people not in the US?
I assume you'll try to pair people so as to minimise air-mail costs?

Yep, Santa is global! I will be working to pair people to minimize mailing expenses all around.

Statement, Joy; This idea is quite wonderful. I would most like to be involved in it as well.
