Maplemation Secret Santa 2019! Your hosts this year will be Heki and CCShinobi!
What is Secret Santa?
It is a popular Christmas tradition where, upon signing up, each person is randomly assigned a designated person to give a gift to, and it’s all a secret until it’s time to give the presents! Each person is a gift receiver and giver, so if you plan on signing up, prepare to make something and get something! Presents can range from animations, to custom sprites, to artwork, to real life gifts in the mail, and so on! Please put effort into your present and do not save whatever you are making for the last minute.
DATES
November 24th - Secret Santa sign-ups begin! There's a form below for you to follow.
December 7th - Last day to accept sign-ups and send out assigned Secret Santas
December 23th - FINAL DEADLINE FOR GIFTS
December 25th - Open your presents!
If you sign up and do not submit a present for your assigned Secret Santa by the deadline, you will be publicly shamed on a ‘naughty list’ that will be pinned for 2020. No excuses, you have been warned.
To participate, reply to the thread with this form:
Preferred Name: (Real, Forum, or other Nickname)

RULES
- The 23rd is the LATEST day to submit your presents for giving, but feel free to send earlier!
- Don't go looking and trying to figure out who your Santa or recipient is. The whole point of a Secret Santa is to keep it a secret.
- Monetary gifts are perfectly acceptable, but you must still tell me that you plan to do this before the deadline.
- Arrangements to collaborate to make a gift for someone and to receive one gift to be shared between both of them is perfectly fine too as long as you talk to Heki about it. You must PM me or post a confirmation that you and the person you wish to partner up with consent to working together. You can do the following two pair-ups:
[LIST]
- You and your partner will act as one Santa, and act as one recipient.
- You and your partner will act as one Santa, and act as two individual recipients.
[*]Questions for your recipient must be directed through a host. This means that if you want to ask your recipient about something involving what you're making, have Heki or CC ask them for you. Questions about CC should be sent to Heki, and vice versa.
[*]If you want to make anything NSFW, please have me ask your recipient if it's alright with them, especially if it's pornographic in nature.
[*]Don't show your gift out to anyone. Definitely don't post it here before December 25th. You can post it after the revealing, but not beforehand.
[*]Try and get something made before the deadline. We don't want anyone getting left out.
[*]If you would like to gift/receive tangible gifts, make sure it’s in your form and PM your address to me, so it can be given to your Secret Santa. It will not be revealed anywhere else. Remember to be able to time the delivery of the present accordingly/appropriately!
[*]If you need gift ideas, check out last year's gift thread!
