Curiose Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 I know that there is already a crazy santa and a christmas tree for people to get random creatures and rewards... but, why not a secret santa? its the holidays and usually around this time of year I like to do something nice. I am wondering about legalities of this, potential volunteers and overall how to make this work. thank you. Hedge Munos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipstickz Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) I don't believe there are any legal problems with a secret santa (as long as there are no WP in the mix), just get a list of people, use a random number generator of some sort (Dice!) and assign recipients before you know what gifts will be given to them, to be sure nobody accuses you of giving an advantage of some sort to anybody. Let me know if you need anything, I'd be happy to help organize it. Edit: Oh right also secret santa has been done before just fine.

Curiose Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Thank you everyone! When I left MD I gave away all my good items, so I personally cannot sponsor this. Should I seek out sponsorship from those willing? And for gifting, should recipients make a list of things they wish for? Who should benefit from this? New players, those struggling? I was also thinking of making a Secret Santa account for those involved in the gifting to use so that hopefully, no wrongful/ unnecessary accusations can be made based on the person. Does this sound good? Also thinking for winter fest, this could be played out. Otherwise, should this just be done during near the time of Christmas? [I know, I should have put this up sooner but it just hit me yesterday.] Edited November 30, 2012 by Curiose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I think we have a different understanding of secret santa... We use to write our names on pieces of paper, throw them in a hat and pull one each. On the last day of work before christmas, everybody gets a little gift from their secret santa, and gives one to somebody else. I think you're thinking of something along the lines of gifts to the poor <.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curiose Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I know what it is... I just... over think things and here is the end result! If I had my way, so many things would be so much more complicated. hence me poking for ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiley Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 LOL I think Curi just got excited and who could blame her:) Let's draw some straws and give what one can? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curiose Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Sure. I'll send out some PMs and see what I can do, either way though. And I do like the idea that Pips gave. I'll PM you three to brain storm some more, this may happen after Christmas if I can't get my butt in gear. Also, yes, I do get excited. : D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
