Unofficial Telltale Secret Santa Thing 2010!
 

I asked about this yesterday, and garnered some attention in the Whatever's on your Mind thread, and would like to officially (unofficially) start a Secret Santa between TTG Forumers!

Rules
If you don't know what Secret Santa is, it is a common holiday event between larger groups of people. Basically, a bunch of people sign up, and are assigned a random other person who also has signed up, and everyone buys eachother something without knowing who their gift will come from!

Rules Specific to This Secret Santa

• Applicants must gift items using Steam.
• Items should not be worth less then $3, or rougly £2.50.
• Items purchased should not exceed $20, or £16, roughly, so we don't have anyone buying anyone else iPods and other people buying Laptop Covers.
• You must send your gift by January 6th, 2010.

Registration
To register, please reply below saying you're in and send me a PM with the email address your Steam account is linked to, so your Santa can gift it to you. Registration closes on 5pm, PST on Wednesday, December 22rd.

Other Information
If you have any questions, please, contact me by PM or reply below!

Great idea.... but my xmas shopping has already tapped out my extra funds.

Is it possible to gift Steam games anonymously?

Can I ask the person what they want? I know that defeats the point of it being secret, but I wouldn't want to get them something they don't want.

Wishlists on Steam are reccomended. And the point is they don't know who it's coming from, and that you do find out who it is so you can heckle them if they choose to buy you something like Rogue Warrior.

Sure, I'm in- I'll be on holiday that week so I can actually use Steam! I can't remember which email, though, so I'll need to look that up.

Can you make it you have to have a wishlist to enter?

Highly reccomended is a better word. They could theoretically set the wishlist to be exclusively 30 dollars COD games, so it's moot to force it.

I'm in!!

That does sound fun, although sending gifts approximately in 6th of Jan might be problematic for me.

No, as soon as you recieve your 'target', you can buy them their gift, up until The 6th, as that's just after the Steam sale ends.

i will do it

I am not completely certain that seibert can or will buy a game for his assignee. He said in another thread just recently that he could not afford Eversion which is $2.50, less than the minimum.

it turns out i had enough to get it (i was trieing to keep ringmaster from knowing)

If there's a statistically significant chance of seibert being the one to choose my gift, count me out. :P

Don't worry, I'll be sure not to put you two together. BUT NO MORE EXCEPTIONS.

and plus i get $100 on the holidays

Another small clarification: By Less then 20 dollars, I mean around 20 dollars. So if it's 20.09, don't freak out.

Could be worse, could have been me choosing your gift.
