    Hey there.

    I was wondering who'd be interested in a Secret Santa for this year's Christmas! For anyone who doesn't know how a Secret Santa works.. we find out who's taking part, then everyone is assigned a random person who they then have to anonymously send a Christmas present ^^.

    If a lot of people want to do it, then I'd make sure that everyone gets someone in their own country (whilst still being random of course).

    Here are the rules!


    • The gift can't cost more than £15 (Around $25, €20). There's no minimum however, and it CAN be something custom made! =D
    • You would have to be okay with giving me your address to pass on to another random member.
    • You're not allowed to tell anyone who you're buying for!
    • I'd set a date that presents should be posted off by :)
    • After Christmas we can all post on here, showing what we got!

    Anyone interested? =D

    we did it last year, I like to do it again.

    the way we did it last year was drawings or writing. I don't think we sent each other anything.

    If enough people are interested we can get it nice and organized early because to be honest, the thought /completely/ slipped my mind.
    I'd totally be up for it though.

    I'm up for it, but being me I'd more likely draw them a Christmas themed pony. Soooo I'd kinda feel awkward/bad if they bought something? I dunno.

    But something of this nature should go ahead! Get people in the spirit. :derpe:

    I might do it. Although ponies are rare where I live, so you'd probably end up with nothing great.

    I remember last year; Secret Santas are a fun idea. Still, I think we should put off signing up for it until November, don't you?

    Secret Santa last year was fun. And I learned how to trolling more better now.

    I think sending drawings and Steam games would work better.

    It's all about what you think the other person would like really.

    I'd join in if I knew how to draw or write or make a song as a gift.....unfortunately, I'm lacking in all those areas so I'll have to pass. :p

    I didn't do it last year.

    Would I get banned if I sent someone an envelope that has been smeared with anthrax?
    I think I'll do it, just gotta ask my parents if it's alright

    Ah yes, I remember doing this last year. I wouldn't mind giving it a try again.
