Thank you-Thank you-THANK YOU, to my Secret Santa and a Secret Elf, for the many games! For the TOO many games!!
Also, thank you GOG, for your generosity and your backing up to the Secret Santa tradition!
Lastly, thank you zeffyr for managing the event!

After this year's round of very generous gifts, my entry in the community wishlist has become more important than ever. It's been "In progress" for many years now. I hope, GOG will be done with it soon. It's about time!

You are a Great Beaver and your woodwork helps the environment : )

As in previous years, it took me some time after the event to re-read all the messages, double check whether any gift got lost in the vast bag we had this year, and to reply to all of your kind messages in PMs :-) Lots of thank yous have also landed here - for each and every message I'm very grateful.

I'm not exaggerating while responding "the pleasure is mine". it truly is! And foremost all of this festive joy we have here was possible thanks to your contributions, with good deeds, words and wishes. I can't say thank you enough!

I'm sending warm smiles and hugs to all of you, dear Santas and Elves - and to GOG of course :-)

Thank you so much to my Secret Santa for the wonderful gifts! Your generosity and thoughtfulness truly made my holiday season special.

A huge thank you to all the participants for keeping this tradition alive and thriving. It's incredible to see how what started as a silly idea 15 years ago has grown into such a cherished and beloved event. Your enthusiasm and kindness are what make this community so special.

As the creator of the original Secret Santa, I remember the early days when I thought, "Hey, wouldn't it be fun if we all exchanged gifts anonymously?" Little did I know that this whimsical notion would blossom into a heartwarming tradition that brings joy to so many people each year. It's amazing to see how far we've come, and it's all thanks to you wonderful folks who keep the spirit alive.

A special shoutout to zeffyr for hosting and managing the event with such grace and patience. Your dedication and hard work behind the scenes make everything run smoothly, and we couldn't do it without you!

And of course, a massive thank you to GOG for their continued support of the Secret Santa event. Your backing and generosity have been instrumental in making this tradition a success year after year. Without your support, we wouldn't have the platform to connect and share this festive joy.

I also want to give a nod to some of the amazing participants who make this event so special: CarChris, Lifthrasil, solseb, and all the other wonderful Santas and Elves out there. Your contributions, good deeds, and festive spirit are what make this community so magical.

Here's to many more years of festive joy, community spirit, and delightful surprises!

Happy new year to everyone!

I hope all lovely Santas and Elves had a most wonderful New Year's Eve celebration.

May 2025 be kind, giving and joyous to each and everyone of you, just as you've been to each other this season time.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, fine folks! Here's hope for 50+ Secret Santas for 2025! :)

Being buried in gifts from elves and santas is a great way to start the year :)
Happy 2025 everyone!

Precisely this. :)

Happy New Year, Santas & Elves!
