hackitude: shock, using technology (google that shit)
WHAT HAPPENS: you have until DECEMER 3RD to SIGN UP. And then you'll have until DECEMBER 25TH to deliver your Secret Santa gift. If you're confused about what all this is exactly, please see the OOC post here! Please leave any questions on that post too, to keep them all in one place. Once you decide you want to participate, please fill out the form below and leave it in a comment on this post!

All comments are screened!

If the worst should occur, and you sign up but then you get to DECEMBER 22ND and realise you won't be able to get anything done by the 25th for whatever reason, no worries! Please drop me a line (athousandsmiles at gmail) and I'll organise a pinch-hitter for you. Likewise, if something urgent comes up and you need to drop out, please let me know! The earlier the better.

On DECEMBER 26TH I'll put up a post for everyone to reveal who they were Santa for!

~the form~


ME

My name: (whatever's listed on the player page will do)
Characters I play: (self explanatory)
My email: (Needed for sending out Santa assignments, but if for some reason you are absolutely against giving out your email to me then please list an alternative method of contacting you!)
A link to my secret santa post: (Feel free to leave this section blank for now and come back and edit a link in when you make the post later. But please create by the 3rd a post in any one of your journals with anon commenting enabled for your secret santa to deliver your present, or communicate with you if they have any questions! You can backdate it if you like. The post doesn't have to say much else other than "THIS IS A POST FOR SECRET SANTA" as long as it's there. If you're really not comfortable enabling anon comments anywhere in any of your journals, please let me know so I can pass that along to your Santa and they can comment with a sock.)

I WANT:

FANDOM STUFF
Please list a variety of canons that you like, in order of those you'd most want to receive something for to least. They do not have to be represented in game and you do not have to play from them. (Though I'm guessing most people's first choice will be the canons they play from.) That said, please only include a canon if you'd GENUINELY like to receive something in that vein, since it may not be possible to always match someone up with a Santa in their first or second fandom of choice.

Please feel free to also be as vague or specific as you like, keeping in mind that this list will go to your Santa when they're assigned to you. For example, you might write "Anything Sailor Moon" if you're not fussed or "Sailor Moon (but only Sailor Mercury and ships associated with her)" or "Sailor Moon (anything with Usagi/Rei or Ami/Makoto)" and so on and so forth.

NON-FANDOM
If your canons are not well known, or if you'd rather have something other than fic or art, this section is doubly important! An example of stuff in the "OTHER" category would be:
• paid time for any of my journals
• icons for _____
• fanmixes
• layouts
• coloured manga icons for _____
• cookies
• etc anything that doesn't fit above

OTHER NECESSARY INFORMATION
This is the place to leave any important generalised notes for your Santa, eg: I'M OK WITH JUST PORN FOREVER or NOTHING OVER PG-13 PLEASE or. Anything else you can think of!


Listing a variety of things would be good. You don't have to fill out both sections or whatever, but keeping in mind that people have different resources, so it's nice to have choice as a secret-santa-filler-ee-person.


I CAN GIVE

FANDOM STUFF
Again, as above. LIST ANY AND ALL FANDOMS YOU ARE HAPPY TO DO STUFF FOR!! And if there are any caveats or restrictions. They do not have to be represented in game and you do not have to play from them.

OTHER
• paid time
• fanmixes
• layouts
• physical mail to people inside (country of residence)
• layouts/icons/coloured manga icons
• magical unicorns

ONLY SAY WHAT YOU CAN FOR SURE GIVE in the allotted time! Keep in mind that the holidays are busy and so forth, etc. At the end of the day, this is just meant to be something fun and light for everyone involved! It's not meant to induce stress-- you don't need to go overboard and write a 10k fic or anything. People are just as happy to receive drabbles. So know your limits, and just contribute what you can.


PINCH HITTING

Feel like you're going to be available to potentially do last minute pinch-hitting things? This is the section to sign yourself up as a pinch-hitter! It is ABSOLUTELY OK if you can't. The holidays are busy! Hopefully we won't need any pinch-hitting at all, but it's good to have a just-in-case. Things always come up.

If what you're willing to do for pinch hitting is the same as everything you just wrote above in the "I CAN GIVE" section, just write "same as above" or something similar. If you have restrictions or caveats, please write that too!
