This is going to be my second year running SS. The past host who usually runs the SS here in the lounge every year, chose not to continue due to people being whiny, ugly, and hateful in past SSs. Completely understandable and because of this, I picked up the duties of hosting.
Last year ran totally smoothly except for one hiccup. Everyone was great about helping out and resolving the issue. Everyone really showed the Christmas spirit and that's what this is all about. I really appreciate the adult attitudes and thankful/grateful way everybody acted last year. You guys are the bomb.
All that being said, be nice. Seriously, I won't tolerate anyone being nasty to anyone else. I will remove you from SS so fast, your head will spin. This is supposed to be fun for everyone. So, let's act like it.
The Rules
This isn't done to be mean or exclusive. However I know the biggest reason I've had fun with Secret Santa in previous years is because I've known the person well enough to be able to know what they'd truly like and be excited to hear what they think about it. If you don't have enough posts/reps this for this years Secret Santa, we hope you can join us next year.
We are getting an early start this year. I will give everyone their SS name by Saturday November 7th . That gives everyone a month to get some ideas together and get shopping.
Tracking Number Recording Form [urlhasbeenblocked]
Just a tip for those of you who do not ship much, Regional Boxes with the post office allow you to fill that sucker up as heavy as you can get it for a flat rate depending on the region you are shipping to and includes free insurance up to $50 and free tracking. You can check them out here: Regional Rate Boxes [usps.com]

Secret Santa 2015 Sign Up Link [urlhasbeenblocked]
This form was created by me and will only be seen by me. It helps streamline everyone who is participating into a quick and easy list for me.
I will confirm that I have everything I need by PM also. You are NOT officially participating until you get a PM from me stating so.
As with every year, this address will only be seen by me and the person who is sending you the gift. Under no circumstances will your address ever be given out to anyone else. If it's found someone has given out another person's address they got from the Secret Santa they will be banned from this and future Secret Santas.
I can only put your name in the list of participants once I have received your shipping address. You can't sign up without without putting in your address, so there you have it.
Spending limit is $20.00 plus shipping.
You will need to fill out the Secret Santa questionnaire found at the bottom of this post.
Please fill this out as much as you can. It will make it easier for your Secret Santa to find something you truly like if you answer it completely.
So you're excited to participate. What happens now?
1.) Sign up through the form link on or before Sunday November 1st if you want to participate. There will also be a list in the wiki of people who are participating. Please include your name there as well. I will add as I can as well.
2.) You will see a questionnaire in this post. Please answer those questions and make a new post with those answers. I, you, or someone will link your questionnaire post with your name in the wiki.
3.) You will receive the name and address of the person you get to play Secret Santa for by November 7th. More than likely before November 7th, but a lot of people got ancy last year so I'm giving myself plenty of time. When I PM you your SS's name, come here, click on the person's name in the wikipost to be taken to their questionnaire and what they've said they'd like.
4.) Get it all ready and ship by Saturday Dec 5. Make sure to buy the delivery confirmation and tracking number. Please PM me OR fill out the tracking info google form instead that you have shipped it and the tracking number. USPS gives it free for online ordering.
5.) Please PM me when you have received your gift.
6.) Jump up and down with joy. A present!! You can post in the thread you received it and if you opened it, you can share what you got if you like.

Can't wait to see what everyone ends up with!
