Honestly if there can be enough interest I will organize it again

16+ sign up for it, I will run it

It's really not that bad other than maybe the one person who sends very late, if you flake on this you're pretty much a blacklisted trader for this community and won't be welcomed to future secret santas.

Do we have a deadline for sign up? The more the merrier right? Not that just 2-3 ppl would be bad but.... 👍😃 and do we pm you our info or just say that we're "in" on this thread?

Well, I suppose I'll be first in line then. Come on ppl! This is a fun thing. Isn't it like $15-$20 price range?

It's been a clusterlove the last 3 years with a ton of headaches. I'd advise against it but won't protest it

Learn from the mistakes. Was the first year not the biggest .clusterlove.? Every next one should be better, if you make choice to improve rather than be Taysby about it ;)

I'm in the middle of the talks about our merge with a company who runs one of the pro tours.

Our best time was when Hasbro was advertising their failed app as we benefited from their marketing effort.

Eventually we will get new people coming in numbers, but it should not be before January next year.

From what I understand there is a separate list to sign on, and you can send more than one but the shipping costs should be on you, so the value of the cards you send adds up to agreed value.

Just don't send someone a gift you wouldn't want to get like a pile of bulk rares, unless that person asked for it specifically (postage would most likely be $20 for all those bulk rares tho 😂)

So where's the sigh up page? Can't find it 🤓

Also, just as a thought, once you find out who your sending to, try to do a little investigating and find out what cards your person is looking for or what format they play. Try to personalize the gift to your person and not just giving a random value card.

Unfortunately there was not enough interest to host a secret Santa next year.

We will try again in November 17
