I can't resist a deadline... wait I just did (somewhere else). Anyway, I need to prove myself (and receive words of praise)! Ready to research a random stranger on the internet? Check. Ready to type madly at first then in spurts with shower and dream inspirations? Check. Time to scroll through hundreds of posts? Che- hol' up, what am I saying about my life? In other words, I'd like to sign up.

Anyway, sign me up.

Mmm yes, time zones are a bit tricky on the North Pole so let's go with GMT :D

I keep a flexible deadline, though! As long as I haven't posted that the signups are closed folks are welcome to sign up!

Midnight GMT?
No, sorry, not joining,

All telegrams should have been sent out! If you've signed up and didn't get one, please telegram me!

That was the deadline for signing up, yes.

Now anyone who has signed up has until Christmas* to prepare their secret santa message and send it to me, so I can anonymously deliver it to the recipient around Christmas day ^^

*but preferably a few days earlier to make my life earlier!

Alright, I'm looking at the person I'm supposed to write for... and now I'm a little confused. Can you give an example of a telegram we're supposed to type? So I can understand the approximate tone and length?

Edit: Heads up

Due to some much-needed hardware changes (replacing an end-of-life drive), the game will be down for a few hours starting at 0600 Eastern Time (New York City time), most likely on Thursday December 15th but possibly a later date some time between December 20th and 24th. It will likely be down for a few hours, but hopefully not longer. The forums will remain up, but as per usual, you will not be able to log in, anyone logged in already will remain so until the expiration of their session.

There are no expectations on length or complexity, it's not an essay ;)

Some people go through their santee's history and zone in on some of their passions. Others focus more on tapping into their own creative side and write a small poem or even a jingle. The ultimate goal is to be kind and spread some warm wishes ^^

If you are struggling still, don't worry and just send me a telegram. I can look for an example in the archives.

Thanks to the Admins' hard work digging our "Secret Santa message forwarding facility" from the unexpectedly heavy snowstorm, we finally managed to deliver all messages! :lol:

Time for me to catch my flight back to the Secret North Pole! Ho ho ho!
