Alright, TFS! It's December! You all should know what that means. It's time for the annual TFS Secret Santa.

Unless you want to pay gross amounts of postage, we won't be sending real gifts (Duh). Instead, what will we give? Pictures, sprite comics, sprites, anything that you can come up with along those lines.

This works pretty much like the standard-issue Secret Santa, only tweaked a bit for the internets.

HOW IT WORKS

You wanna sign up? Send me an email at iotametroid@gmail.com. What should be in this email? Your TFS handle, and enough info for your gift-giver to work with. Descriptions of how they look, perhaps act, and some visual references are almost a MUST. If you have sprites, toss them in as well, some people may want to make a sprite comic.

The deadline for sending emails is December 10th. After that, sucks to be you, you get no christmas on these internets!

On the 10th, I, most certainly ALONE, will sort through all of the entries, because Mewchu's dead due to finals, Bill's a communist, and Edge exists only to beat up palm trees, and lives on a fence. Aided by my trusty bottle of alcohol, I'll randomly assign each person to another, and send out emails, telling you who you have been assigned. Don't whine, it's random. And if they didn't give enough info, contact me, and I'll yell at them.

ON CHRISTMAS DAY

At approximately whenever-the-hell I feel like it, I'll open the official thread for Secret Santa giftgiving. In said topic will be a hueg list of names, of all of the participants, with people who've given their gifts crossed out.

The deadline for giving gifts is NEW YEAR"S DAY.

If you don't give a gift? You suck. And I'll do nasty things to your account.

If you don't get a gift? Well, that's where the christmas angels come in to play.

WHAT ARE CHRISTMAS ANGELS?

For people who don't receive a gift, there are the christmas angels. At the end of the year you don't receive a gift, a christmas angel will be selected to make a gift for you. A bit of charity, so you'd better be thankful.

If you want to be a christmas angel, include it in your email, along with a sample of what your work is like, and I'll decide if you're allowed or not.



That's pretty much it, TFS! Happy holidays!

-Don't drink the eggnog. I'm warning you.

Anonymous sent his Angel request.

If you really need help going through all the entries, I could always help.

-But it shouldn't be that hard, should it?

This year I request I'll be a Christmas Angel, e-mail to come soon. :D

Guys, christmas here will suck ASS at this rate. The cuttoff was the 10th, and I've received FOUR EMAILS. FOUR.

I'm extending the cutoff to the 12th. Hurry it up people.



-Uh oh. I hope there's still time to set things right...

What the hell, I was thinking of talking you into making the deadline the 12th.

-And was going to ask how many people have joined so far.

PRO-TIP: Christ's Mess always sucks

Then again, I'm sour because Santa never brings me a woman, despite having one of my Christ's Mess list since I was twelve >:<

That sweaty fat fuck

~ Sending my e-mail tomorrow after I get the references sorted out BTW

I'll try to send an e-mail tomorrow.

I'd love to help here; problem is I don't really have crap worth giving.

As long as you put some effort into it I think you should be fine. One year I joined and I made Iota a sprite comic, and I didn't get mauled by the staff for giving him something like that.

I forgot how Iota felt about it, though.

You obviously haven't seen how long it's been since I updated my comic. I'm not sure I'll actually make myself make whatever present I'd give.

...Ah, hell, I'll try.

Oh, that was you, huh? I forget which comic it was (Doesn't remember gifts, lol)

...sendplz?

You realize one reformatted hard drive and one new computer later, the comic's long gone?

Bah, I'll go look for it.

Edit: Fuuuuck, only place I uploaded it (imageshack) took it down.

Guess you can click that to see the thumbnail version or... something.

O.K. I SENT AN E-MAIL EVEN THOUGH IT WOULD OF BEEN SO EASY TO JUST PM. D:<!

-Wonder who I'll get.

Email sent, this'll be fun. :D

Signed up.

E-mail finally sent-u-lated

~ Sent-u-lated is so a real word now

Signed up.

Sign-ups are CLOSED. If you didn't make it in time, BAAAAWW it up, I gave fair warning.

GIFTS WILL BE DISTRIBUTED ON CHRISTMAS DAY, AND YOU HAVE UNTIL NEW YEARS DAY TO TURN IN YOUR GIFT, OR YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.

And you don't want that to happen. Trust me.

Anybody who doesn't turn in their gift by New Years isn't allowed to join any future Secret Santa things, right?
