f1e: Someone needs to counterbalance the secret elfs.

I am willing to be a giftee.

BeatriceElysia: you need to fix your chat settings - assuming you're still around.
Oh, I wasn't expecting this'll work. Chat is open.

In the first moment I read that as Santae ... now, wouldn't that be a fun game, where you have to manage lots of Santas to get the presents everywhere in time? ;-)

anyone without a giftee, since I contacted all Santas?
and some people need to post a wishlist.

I won't post any order of preference, leaving the gift choice to my Santa's will :)

Have a merry holidays everyone!

Nah, nobody would play it. Like ever ;P

Nice to see this is still going, with some familiar faces. I should really hang around these forums more. I missed out on last year, I guess that means I'll have to give double the gifts this time around. ;)

since we have uneven number of participant, you'll likely be assigned to one of Secret elves. So it's fair I close signups right now.

I'm not sure what scheme you are using, but Secret Santa works with any number of participants (larger than 3), whether even or odd. Here is an example with five:
A gives to B
B gives to C
C gives to D
D gives to E
E gives to A

P.S. You can contact me via chat if you need help in creating the Secret Santa assignment circle (or circles).

I was about to say the same. You don't need an even number of participants. And if the giftees have already been assigned, at least a part of them could be reshuffled, to let the newcomers in (deadline for signing in was Dec 16th, if I remember correctly, so he should be allowed to join)
Even if some of us have already bought the gifts, as they haven't been redeemed we could always ask for a refund and buy something different.

Uhm, you did write that Secret Santa would be open to at least the 16th...

8. I will close signups on December 16th. I will try not to bump this thread, since we do have almost two months in advance.

Yes, I did. But as usual I closed it earlier. I never meant to exclude the guy, just sent one of secret elves his way, so he still gets the gifts.
mrkgnao, I managed to squeeze him in somewhere.

That's the kind of thing I don't get... why even have an end date when you're so loose about it? Why not just set f.ex. 1200 GMT 16th of December so everyone knows exactly when it's closing?

It's neither fair nor reasonable...

Exactly. Why post a deadline if you won't adhere to it? People may depend on it one way or another for whatever reason, and if you posted something... nebulous or vague it would at least be fair (Hey, I said it could end anytime this week). I usually use interest in my giveaways as a caveat. I post a close date, and usually modify that with it will close earlier if the thread goes 48 hours without a new entry.
