SECRET SANTA PROJECT!!!

SECRET SANTA PROJECT!!!

Hello there and Happy Holidays! I'm the Secret Santa Elf aka the SS Elf, and this is Secret Santa: CB Edition.

I know there's a White Elephant game going in right now on C@C, but I figured we could use even more holiday spirit. I was surprised nobody had done this yet. I also really wanted to do it because I've never actually been part of a Secret Santa on the CB or on real life. I figured this would be a fun treat for everyone!

***** 

Here's how it will work:

1. Join under an alias. You don't need to do anything yet. Make sure your alias is one you have not used in a recent SI or in the white elephant game. Your alias can be holiday-related or not. 

2. Don't guess anybody yet. (That includes me.)

3. Once we have a good amount of people, around two or three pages I think, I will pair everyone up randomly (including myself). On my official list, the name in front is the one that is the secret Santa. Let's call the second person their match.

Ex. Reindeer: Nameless CBer

Don't worry, you can still join immediately after that and technically be part of this round--you just may have to wait a bit longer for your match or Secret Santa.

NOTE: Your name will not be on the list twice. This means you will not be both a Secret Santa and a match. If you have a preference, let me know when you join. 

4. Now this is where the Secret Santa begins! Every day, or multiple times a day if you want, the Secret Santa gives their match some sort of gift. It can be anything--literal (like a picture, picturing, photo, poem, etc) or figurative (a description or picture of a gift or decorations). You can give a gift container description of you wish. Anything you want! You can ask your match questions, like what their favorite color is, or if they celebrate Channukah, or if they have a pet, etc. Whatever you might need for your gifts.

That includes if you need your match's identity, then ask, and they'll give it to you. (This is the reason behind the note at the end of #3.)

Meanwhile (whether their identity is revealed or not) the match tries to guess their Secret Santa. One guess per post please.

5. The Secret Santa keeps giving gifts until Saturday the 25th.

The official next round starts on Monday, if anybody new that was very late wants to join, or if someone that was Secret Santa would like to be a match, or vice versa. If you are rejoining, no need to state what you want...I will check my list from last time and make sure you have a different role.

***** 

I hope I explained everything clearly. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me!

Get ready to have fun. Let's begin!!!

I don't know where my name came from, I've never even had a raspberry cookie, but I'll join!

Admins, the writing in the name field in New Year in Russian. If you aren't allowed to post foreign letters, you could just change it to New Year.

I'll join too!

(Admins, my name field is also Russian and it's a character from Russian folklore. She's basically a snow girl that came to life- like Frosty but better.)

Two announcements:

One. I need to change the date, because (silly me) there is no Saturday the 25th.

The date on which the first round ends and everyone must reveal themselves is Sunday the 25th. Technically the Admins are on break then, so you can still make posts, but they most likely won't show up till Monday so the date is kind of Monday...? *shrug* Let's go with Sunday the 25th.

Two. I will start pairing people now since there's an even number. I actually wrote down names on slips of paper and drew them out of a santa hat XD (@Buddy except fopr you since you asked to be a Santa)

Newcomers can still join, and I will do my best to pair you as quickly as possible.

So without further ado, here is the list! Once again, it will be Secret Santa: Match.

***** 

Buddy the Elf: Pile of snow

Gingerbread cookie: Dancer

Cindy Lou Who: Mistletoe

LoTR elf: The Ivy

Matryoshka: новый год

Снегурочка: Raspberry Cookie

Ready...set...go!
