Ho Ho HO!
Last year, we had a Secret Santa Gift Exchange that was a lot of fun, so we will repeat it again this year
Previous years thread is here...
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=84096.0Here is how it works...
Anyone who wants to sign up, just says "I am in" on this thread, then PMs me their info* later. Once the Registration period is over... say Beginning of November, I'll send everyone who is playing ONE address to send a Secret Santa Gift to. Each person is responsible for sending a gift of nominal value (determined by the group) to the individual he has an address for.... Everybody reports here in the secret Santa thread when there gift arrives, and what it was, and after everyone gets theirs, we can "reveal" who we were the secret Santa too.
The points to stress are
1) The person receiving the gift doesn't know who the giver is (until revealed after date specified by group)
2) You only buy ONE gift for ONE recipient (and you only GET ONE gift from ONE sender)
3) Gifts should have a value that is pre-determined buy the group... that is, if we say $20/€20 or so. Your gift can be worth more if you want, but the minimum value is just to make it equitable for all players. You don't even have to buy anything... You can grab a few figures (painted or unpainted) throw em in a box and mail em off... done! It can be anything Mini/LAF related - Paints, Brushes, Games, Rules, Dice, Figures, etc etc etc....
4) Gifts must go out BY DECEMBER 1! to ensure they arrive before Christmas. (hard to enforce, but try to meet the sending deadline.) CONCERNS
I WILL TRY TO KEEP FOLKS ORGANIZED BY CONTINENT!
LAF is a big community... we have folks from ALL over ( Which is another reason why it is helpful to send everything out by Dec 1). I'll try to keep the Europeans together, and the Americas together as well... It all depends on who is participating and where they are from. It usually takes about 10 participants to make it worthwhile, but the more the merrier!
We will close "sign ups" on
SUNDAY NOV 6 which should give you 3 weeks to shop/paint/package/Mail or whatever you need to do to give the mailing system time to get the packages to their recipients.
IF YOU ARE IN, COMMENT IN THIS THREAD, and SEND ME YOUR MAILING ADDRESS!
Every county's postal system seems to want it different, and while yours is natural to you, for somebody else, from a different place in the world, it might look strange. So seperate by line, as to what goes where.
I WILL NEED SOME INFO to help your secret santa out.
*info
Mailing address
Name/Forum Name
Areas of Interest for Figs
Shirt Size
I'd put a couple things down as you maybe into 3mm Spanish Civil War Parade Figures, but the guy who gets you is into Moon Fantasy... (or whatever).... the goal is not to stress anyone out, but to have a good time giving and getting.... so if you like 70/80s grenadier figures, but also like florecent paints and Gaming T-shirts, put that down too!
Think I covered all the basics, if you have questions, ask, and even if you commented in last year's thread that you want in for this year, repost "I'm in" Here
