I'd be down too. Maybe it could be a White Elephant to shake things up a bit. I'm pretty sure there are websites out there that could facilitate it and we could all be in a Discord server/chat for the shenanigans but maybe have it be chat only so the introverts and/or other language individuals can not feel left out?

would you rather do physical gifts or a game? just been asked and thought physical - as i did before but open to games if most people want that instead

I was about to say I feel iffy about giving people my address, but I'll just use my Postal Service's General Delivery and have them hold it so I can pick it up; I'm indifferent about it being physical gifts or a game π

new unbundled giveaway added - need at least 18 more people

i was thinking more of a real physical gift you could open and yes of course you could be told or tell who you get later
i would do games if most people would rather do it this way

Oh sorry I just assumed it was about games
But by all means, if people prefer physical gifts, it's even better! Of course, there's a whole other set of problems... international shipping can take quite some time and some people (not me tho) might not be comfortable telling their address to strangers online... but I think we can try it. Anyway, I'm on board in both scenarios!

i think giving games this time is better for most people

how about -if this goes ahead (enough people join) you send me a list of 5 games max Β£20 price - ones you can get on a store like humble and they pick you one?

well it makes sure you you get something you'd like -maybe i'll think of something else by then

I think I prefer games, since I think I'm not in the same country as most of People

If I wasn't tight on finances this year I probably would have joined. Hopefully I can join next year. Great idea though, so good luck with the event :)

update:
we are going to be doing games for giveaways - as this seems better for most people i would rather they be un bundled games or at least not very bundled and should be of at least a decent quality (the sort of quality you would love to receive)
i would also need someone else to help run this with me so i don't know who sent my gift to me

you can use website like drawnames to help with it. we used it when doing secret santa years ago and it works wonders.
(do let me know if it is not allowed to share the website name and i'll remove it later)

thanks but if the problem is that if i send someone who gets me they'll know i know who sent me my game - btw are you interested in joining?
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, i never created it myself (i was the participant) so i'm not sure if you will be able to see who is sending who. I can help you setting it up if you want someone who is not joining to help. I can't join this time since i have been spending a lot on other things recently.

i don't know if we are going to get enough people to join but sure any help would be great

this was already done here on SG, happy that traditions never die

i know my son was in one a few years back - did you want to join?
Comment has been collapsed.
this is sadly being cancelled since i will have no time to try and run it anymore

i feel like we should try a secret santa or something - if we get enough interest
I would like to set this up because so many people and maybe some of our members here may not have much in they way of a good Christmas either because they have few or no family or for some reason can't be with them this year and a small gift from a fellow member would be lovely and hopefully cheer them up juts a little bit.

rules
i would limit it to around $20 so that everyone has a fair chance to join and no one feels like they didn't send a good enough gift or gifts
comment here if you interested in joining or helping me out with this (this is my first time trying something like this)
be nice to all other people and who you end up with will be at random
i hope this is of interest - i would love this community to be a little bit more of a community
thanks and any ideas welcome - https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/qnoEH/gurney-to-gurney
people interested (need at least 20) - will leave this open till end of November (so as to have time to let people buy and send their presents)
