I know this might seem a bit early but with Halloween nearly here and the weather getting cooler that time of year is sneaking nearer. Yes, the chatterbox Secret Santa is on the way! Now, I'm starting this off now so that everyone can join in even with limited play time. Once Halloween is over, everyone has all of November and most of December to get ready. I know we all have things that take us from the site so I'm trying to give everyone pleanty of time. That said, our last Secret Santa had some issues and I thought one of the ways we could reduce the problems was by having some rules. I've pulled together some and I think it would be best if those who want to join in agreed to these guidelines. Please let me know if you're not happy with these or if you think we should adjust them. They are not set in stone just yet. Look over them and have a think. Currently there's no sign up date though I will set one once we are in December. Have a fun and safe Halloween everyone!

1. You need to organise a Secret Santa wish list before December.
2. The list can be anywhere between 5 - 10 items long.
3. Each item must be a maximum of 500,000sp.
4. Start saving up now please! I'll draw the lots and send out the name of your SS before December starts.
5. If the giver wants to give more than is on the list, it is up to the giver. These rules are to ensure everyone gets at least one item on their wishlist that players can afford. Even if the player can't spend much time on Subeta.
6. Unless it sells for 500k sp on the player shops, no cash shop items. They have some lovely things and it's wonderful to support the site but this is sp only. We had far too much trouble with this last year so no give on this I'm afraid.
7. If you have any concerns or issues, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to help.
8. Gifts must be from the wishlist. This isn't Mysterious Melody. Unless you know your SS well and it can be seen as a joke or it accompanies the gift, stick with items from your SS' wishlist.

Please agree to these rules before you sign up. This is meant to be fun but after the fuss of last year, I want to be certain everyone is happy with these guidelines before we start.

Count me in! I love this event. It's my favorite thing of the season! :) I agree to the rules, and can't wait to start!! :D

(Just in case you missed the ping. :) )

Okay, I'll add you to the list. Did everything work?

Yes! I got the ping! So I think we're good. Hopefully everyone else will pop over and sign up soon!! Gotta get back to saving sP! :D

Okay. I hope we have fun this year.

ME TOO. :) I'm sure it'll be better. You did great with the rules. Makes it easy to know what's expected!

I agree to the rules :) Count me in :D

Good job on the rules, very straight forward.

Here's hoping. ^_^ I may ping the group again once Halloween has been and gone. Just so that everyone can catch up after the event. Back to the pumpkin carving.

Glad to have you onboard! I'll add you to the list.

Thanks :)

I'd love to be a part of the secret santa gift exchange, please count me in! One question though- how many gifts off the wishlist should I plan on buying? The entire list or just a few? I may have missed the info in your post, I hope you will clarify.

I'm going to ping all my friends so they see this post too in case they are interested in joining, too. (Hey guys! ^^)

Hi! I think you can buy as many as you want/can afford but it has to be at LEAST one gift. :)

Excellent thanks for getting back to me. :) I look forward to being part of this secret Santa. :P

I would like to participate with secret santa this year.

Welcome to the Secret Santa! As springjoy has already explained the idea of the list is to give at least one or more gifts. The items need to be uncommon. Basicly things, you'd like and wouldn't normally buy on a whim but within reason. The best way to keep up is to join the chatterbox ping. Just ask sprinjoy if you want to. It just helps keep everyone up to date withwhat's going on.

Welcome back! I hope you enjoy this year's event. I'll add you to the line up.

So...who all's in for joining our annual Luminaire Secret Santa this year? :D The skelly santa reminded me of how much fun I always have. Hope lots of you are going to join!!! :)

Count me in, rules are good to have! I love giving presents and the more the merrier I say :)

Okay. I'll add you to the list we've got.

Thanking youuu

woot! I totally agree. I LOVE OUR SS event. Such fun! I love sending presents. <3

Im in!! I do think though we should max out a million an item.. Everyone here seems pretty reasonable! We honestly do gift what we can afford and I dont know anyone who really takes advantage :)

Is everyone over their candy rush for the Halloween season? We have so much left over at work.. I made myself a bit sick today eating veggie sticks and then candy lol
