That's right ladies and gentlemen, it's that time once again! I hope everyone's been looking forward to this, because it's time to start signups for the 2022 ZV Secret Santa. This has turned into a great ZV tradition and I'm delighted to keep it going another year. Most of you know the deal, partners are chosen at random and you buy/make/grow/birth a gift for your partner, then we choose a date relatively close to Christmas to get together on Discord and open our gifts together. It's been a great success every time and makes one of the most magical times of the year even better.
If you wish to participate, simply make a post in this thread saying you'd like to join Secret Santa, along with a list of four or five interests so people have some idea of what gift to get. Also please provide a tshirt size because tshirts are always a popular and well received gift. CUTOFF FOR SIGNUPS IS OCTOBER 16TH. That gives you two (more) weeks to decide if you want to join in on the festivities. Once sign ups are complete, partners will be assigned by a list randomizer and I will begin sending out contact information for your Secret Santa recipients. If you are buying a gift, the price range is approx. $10-30. If you are making something, try to keep the cost of materials to that amount as well. Tell me your favorite vegetable as well, this is a test to see if you people actually read all of this or not. After the years of doing this I have most everyone's contact information, but if this is your first year doing Secret Santa or you have moved in the last year, I will need a name and address to provide for your Secret Santa. Feel free to DM me here on the forum or Discord to give that information, or if you have any other questions or concerns.
*EDIT* Once you have your gifts prepared, try to have them mailed out no later than December 2nd. I know it seems like the schedule is a little rushed this year, but due to everyone's hectic schedules I'd like to make sure we have time for everyone to have their gifts and participate in a timely manner.
Once everyone has their partners and contact info, we will assign a date at a later time to gather on Discord to open our gifts together. So while it should go without saying, DO NOT OPEN YOUR GIFT RIGHT AWAY. Once again, if there's anything I've forgot or you have other questions, feel free to hit me up on Discord any time. In the meantime, start signing up, and get hyped for Secret Santa 2022!
