The Official ATOT 2K7 Matchup LIST!!!!!

[Lola]

Also, there is a reason why the creators put the "likes/dislikes" part in the form... Please use it as a basis to start the search for your perfect ss gift. Also, I have found that searching a persons posts really can tell you a lot of good/useful info about them.

Can someone provide a dos and don'ts (in other words, gift ettiquette) of the ATOT Secret Santa. Some questions I have:

Should the gift always be something new (for instance, someone states their likes/wants is a dvd burner and I have a very good used one lying around. Would sending it as the gift be considered rude?)?

Should you include the receipt with the gift (in case there's a problem with the gift)?

Is there anything off limits?

It doesn't have to be new (but make sure its fully functioning, relatively new looking and not a POS) Im gonna put my foot down and say used underwear is unacceptable though.

You can include a gift receipt or if you dont mind your SS knowing how much you spent, an actual receipt with the gift. I recommend just getting a gift receipt if you purchase something from a store.

Things that are off limits:
Dead bodies
Gifts under $20
Live bodies

Other than that, use your discretion. When you get matched with someone take time to look through their posts.

i sent Nik a lump of coal and a blow up sheep doll 2 or so years ago

I remember hearing about that and seeing pics, hilarious :thumbsup:

Finally signed up. Going for the cycle.

WTT

 

[CaptainKahuna]

Is it possible to participate twice?

Ie. send two gifts to two different people, and receive two gifts from two different people?

 

[amdskip]

Yes it is possible, please submit the form twice and note them #1 and #2.

The OP is a bit unclear:

"We request that the gifts should be at least in the $20 amount. There?s no rule stating you can?t spend more however if you wish to. "

That makes no sense. Are the gifts supposed to be over or under $20?

It makes perfect sense. There is no rule as to the maximum that you can spend, but the minimum you should spend is $20.

its worded a bit awkward perhaps, but "at least" usually implies a minimum. The SS gift should be $20 or more.

Spend around $20 but take into consideration how much shipping is going to cost. There is nothing concrete but we don't want you sending a $3 bag of candy and thinking you are good.

 

[MartyMcFly3]

The deadline is November 25th!

 

[imported_Cameron]

Or a $10 starbucks card, 3 weeks in to January. But hey, I'm not bitter I still enjoyed my coffee none the less.

does this count as heatware feedback? 'cuz this might make up for the feedback I never got from the traders that never left me anything, but was too lazy myself to even remind them.

yay in again this year!

 

[GoPackGo]

I'm in again this year. Looking forward to shopping!

 

[imported_Truenofan]

hm....i'll consider it. but shipping to me would be kinda expensive for anyone sending to me so its kinda 50/50 in the wind right now. i wouldnt mind sending to anyone else since anything i send would be kinda expensive anyway.

 

[Kirby]

In for the first time!
