Secret Santa 2020 - All videos on third post!
« on: November 03, 2020, 07:43:23 PM »
Sign up below and leave a "need by" date if you are leaving town/school for the holidays.  Default date is Dec. 10, that way we avoid the shipping deluge.  If you have a true "need by" date, a return date would also be helpful incase you have to get your gift out late.

Rules:
*  Don't tell anyone who you have.  If you need gift ideas, PM me and I will contact your SS, or you can post suggestions for yourself in this thread once the matchmaking is done.
*  Gifts should be around $30 not including shipping.
*  Plan on shipping your gift at least a week before someone's "Need by" date.  Different people might have different dates, be courteous to your recipient.  This includes being late, try not to be too late.
*  Pictures or video of you opening is required.  Video preferred.
*  There is a minimum "notoriety" requirement.  Due to my lack of activity, I will defer decisions of new people to a counsel of trusted users.  In all but two cases, the person who fails to give a gift is a newbie.  A repeat of six years ago non-participants is unacceptable.
*NEW FOR THIS YEAR*  You must provide me with tracking information.  I have two suggestions to do this and one for keeping shipping down:
1) Buy from Amazon or other online vendor that provides you a tracking number.  HOWEVER, they will ship it fast, so if you want to go that route, send the participant a card with a letter (which some of us do anyway), and send it a week before you order.  Address it to the person and their handle so they know it is from DTF.  In the letter state their gift will come direct from the vendor(s) and wish have fun with the rest.
2) USPS isn't that bad usually, I have sent things three day for about $10 in the past.  Make sure you have a tracking number to give me if I ask for it.

What was your handle last year?  By process of elimination you can only be one of three people who participated last year and haven't signed up this year.

EDIT: Oh. Gift ideas. I'm easy to please. I like when people try to be creative or unique with their gifts, especially if it's clever and funny (jingle.boy's gifts last year, Christmas Vacation/Trump themed, was awesome). Pictures of a hike you took that you think look cool. Whatever! But if you want hard interests, the things I am most interested in are: anything Nintendo (Zelda!), Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, anything related to puzzles (jigsaw, sudoku, crosswords etc. or stuff like Rubik's Cubes are amazingly fun), ANIMALS! especially birds and whales, posters (my living room is literally lined to near capacity with band posters and flags). Sheet music for piano. I also like baking?  :lol
