Trid: I like the idea very much and I was thinking about joining, but I'm afraid that the best I would be able to do is gifting one game (and prolly cheap one), so better not for now. But maybe smt will change within this two weeks ^^.

McDon: wait, what's the amount of games usually given, cause I can't afford too much :(
Judging from the last 2 years:
You are sent a list of games at varying price points.
You pick what off that list you want to gift.
I believe that most people buy 1 game, but you always have the option of buying more from the list.

Rodzaju: The whole point is that you buy 1 game.
You'll receive a list to choose from, so there should be something you can manage.....
I agree. If you are planning on buying a game in the next few weeks anyway, might as well join in the fun. There is probably a few you are mulling over and what a great way to be surprised, and then sharing that surprise with someone else!
I'd like to join, and here's my humble little wishlist. Is it big enough, or should I add more to it?

$5.99 - Wing Commander 1+2
Wing Commander 3
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
King of Dragon Pass
Dungeon Keeper

$9.99 - Primordia
Neverwinter Nights Diamond
Sacrifice
Planescape Torment

nmillar: Wow, I think we may have set a new record for number of participants! :)
Maybe if someone other than me bumped it once in a while... :P

Dokusai: I'd like to join, and here's my humble little wishlist. Is it big enough, or should I add more to it?

$5.99 - Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers
(or any other game from the Gabriel Knight series)

$9.99 - Primordia

$14.99 - Miasmata

$19.99 - Deponia
Again, only judging from previous years, but the request was for a wishlist of at least 5 games, split between price points.

Nmillar should be able to provide better guidance, but I think he logged off about 30 minutes ago.

Dokusai: snip

Alright, my list of wishes:

Incredipede
Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams
Edna & Harvey: The Breakout + Harvey's New Eyes
Dangerous Dave Pack
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Worms United

Meh. If I remember correctly, my Christmas lists to Santa were never that big either. >_<

This. There is no minimum amount. If you can only afford 1 game @ $2.99 (assuming GOG do the usual 50% off the vast majority of the catalogue), then that's fine. Everybody who signs up should be aware that there's the possibility of spending more than you receive, but I think most people are okay with that.

Also, I apologise for not responding to everyone individually, but as you can imagine, I'm receiving a rather high volume of PMs at the moment!

I am endeavouring to keep the OP up to date with everyone who wants to participate, but I would urge you to check that you're on the list in case I've missed you somehow.

Quick question: Why do we have to send them via e-mail? Can't we just use PMs?

The codes? It makes it easier for xyem to manage if he receives them all in the email address provided in the OP. Digging through PMs to find codes would be a far more tedious process, whereas all that will be in the email account is emails from people participating in this. :)
