Do follow the NSTG Rules at all times.
Do follow all of the procedures exactly as they are written below in order to participate. That means staying within the appropriate price range, sending your present(s) on time, etc. These procedures are in place to make the Secret Santa experience enjoyable for everyone.
Do not reveal to your recipient that you are their Secret Santa before giving them their gift. If you do this, you will be excused from being a Santa! We've never had someone do this before; please don't be the first.
Do reveal to your recipient that you are their Secret Santa when you deliver your gift. That's the fun of it! ^__^
Do apply with a wishlist. This is an exchange, not a charity. You may not apply simply to give without receiving; there are plenty of charities out there designed for that! Head on back to the Holiday Event subforum and look for some great charities that may catch your interest, or send your donations to the NSTG Mule. Thank you!
December 21st, 2011 I am no longer accepting Secret Santa forms! Thanks to the fourteen of you who signed up. The quiz is still up; you have until Christmas Day to fill out all 25 questions and have a chance of winning a Spirited 2k6 Scarf!
December 6th, 2011 Added countdown timer to Post 4. As of today, everyone has two weeks to get those forms in and to fill out the quiz!
December 4th, 2011 This thread is open to the public and accepting Secret Santa forms!

I am/am no longer accepting Secret Santa forms!Countdown Timer to Form Submission Deadline
I'm so excited that you're interested in participating! Please follow the procedures below so that you can take part in this wonderful, community-building event!
Please post in this thread and fill out the following information:
[color=#7eb6fb][img]http://tinyurl.com/cep5d9z[/img]
[b]Username[/b]: [b]Christmas Wishlist[/b]: [b]Favorite Holiday Film[/b]:[/color]
[quote="Ebony the Peacian"][/quote]
Christmas Wishlist: Please provide a list of items worth less than 5,000g. Check Tektek.org for current Marketplace values of your favorite items. If you have a quest thread or a wishlist on your profile that has items worth less than this amount, please specify that here. Favorite Holiday Film: A Christmas Story? It's a Wonderful Life? A Charlie Brown Christmas? Something else entirely? What's your favorite?
After you post your form and it's been accepted:
Please wait until December 21st, 2011; on that day, either a friend of mine or I will send you a private message with the username of the person for whom you will buy presents. Do not tell this person that you are their Secret Santa just yet! Come back to this thread, look at the list of Santas, and look for their Christmas wishlist; the total value of the gift(s) you give to your recipient must fall between 4,000g and 6,000g in order to be fair to every Santa. Of course, you may buy several gifts to add up to that amount if you would so desire.
Sometime between December 21 and Christmas Day (December 25, 2011), please deliver your present(s) to your recipient via trade or giftbox. If you do so by giftbox, please do not do so anonymously; half of the fun of a Secret Santa event is discovering the identity of your Secret Santa!
If, by the evening of December 27th, 2010, you have not received your present(s), please send me a private message and I will have some special presents delivered to you. I beg of all participants that they please, please do not fail to deliver their presents before Christmas Day. If there is an issue with this, please send me a private message so that we may discuss the matter privately. Remember that your recipient is counting on your generosity this holiday season.

Fill out this holiday quiz to earn some extra gold and bump up this thread! The more Santas, the merrier!
Also, everyone who completes the quiz with each answer in a different post (25 posts total) will get a sweet Christmas treat from yours truly and will have their name entered into a raffle for a Spirited 2k6 Scarf! Yes, this blast from Gaia's past could be yours!
Usernames of those who have completed the quiz:
awaqu Mallyce iiRainbowUnicornz Daypaw yoji0475 madmom2two
Without further ado, here are the questions! Remember: answer each one in its own post!
Do you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa? Something else entirely? Do you prefer hot chocolate, eggnog, cider, or coffee? What would you like for the holidays this year in real life? What would you like for the holidays this year on Gaia? Have you ever done a Secret Santa before in real life? Have you ever done a Secret Santa before on Gaia? Is this your first Gaia Christmas event? If not, when was it? Who are you spending the holidays with this year? What's your favorite dish that's served at your holiday meal? Does it snow during the holidays where you live? Do you believe in Santa? What's your favorite holiday song? What about your favorite holiday movie? Does your family have any unique or culture-specific holiday traditions? Do you wear tacky Christmas sweaters during the holidays? Have you ever gone shopping on Black Friday or on the day before Christmas? (And how did you not get trampled?) What's more fun: Shopping for yourself, or shopping for a loved one? What's your favorite part of the holiday season in general? Is your avatar decked out in holiday gear? What's your favorite holiday color combo? (Blue and silver, red and green, red and gold, etc.) Are you enjoying the NSTG's Festival of Lights? Is this your first NSTG event? If not, when was your first one? Has the NSTG Fairy ever visited you? Are you taking part in any other Festival activities, contests, or games? If so, which ones? [quote="Ebony the Peacian"][/quote]I bet you want your treat now, huh? Congratulations for completing the quiz! Happy holidays! ^__^
