have we ever thought of posting a link in some of the other forums?

I don't think we should include P&N or VC&G but maybe some of the other ones?


Just a thought.

Are you afraid someone will send you a horse head? :p

I believe in the past a thread was made (can't remember if in OT or elsewhere) and the mods did not like multiple threads regarding the secret santa, so that practice was immediately stopped. We aren't trying to discourage those who don't spend time in OT from participating. OT just tends to get the highest traffic, that's all.

Feel free to put the link in your sig or spread the word though.

Is there a way to confirm that you signed up. I know it sounds stupid but I forgot if it I did or not. I guess I'll do it again and see.

Send out confirmation emails? Hey, this is a low-budget operation, we can't be spending that kind of money :awe:

We actually had that set up this year and it worked twice then failed. We figured the "Thank you" screen was enough. That and how many online secret santas do you guys sign up for? :p

I still need to sign up.

I promise I won't write a book this time though.

edit: Done. Please don't hate me.

I always have the opposite problem. I sign up as soon as I see the thread, then I think of eleven million things I should have put down instead of the vague answers I always do.

My SS was awesome last year though and went through a bunch of my threads and found stuff I could really use. I was very impressed.

I love ATOT and I can't thank Marty and Skip (wait...Skip is still helping right?) for doing this. They deserve custom titles and a lifetime supply of butter.

I signed up, but the fucking mods kicked me off here before I could brag about it.

FUCKERS!

I was banned over Christmas one year: I had signed up and did the whole bit, but I couldn't respond on the thread :hmm: good thing no one gives any shits.
