What’s the punishment for doxxing?
ugh, i really want to participate again this year but for us burgers all the tariff bullshit will be tough
>>10961867has that ever happened?
My matches didn't post their stuff last year so I dunno if I'm up for it again.
>>10962013Mine didn't either, maybe my giftee hated it. Who knows? I think I will still sign up as I love buying the gifts but it is a bit sad not seeing them shared.
>>10962013>>10962066not posting gifts is considered grinching, right? organizer will need to confirm but those gulls shouldn't be able to participate again
>>10962074the organizer kinda sucks
>>10962074The organizer said to wait and see before calling Grinch but I kept checking back in the thread for months and no updates. No emails either
Signed up! Thanks for organizing again this year
Only a few days until the deadline!
>>10962753How many participants did there end up being?
>>10962918There are currently 6 participants, but I'll let the signups stay open until the end of the 24th (Baker Island Time), so if anyone is late it's still possible to join!
All matches are now sent out!In total, there ended up being 8 participants, signing up for a total of 26 gifts and cards.
>>10963101that's a small amount of people for that amount of gifts/cards! i signed up for multiple so i guess others did as well.
Hey 7031, your Pinterest link doesn’t work, not sure if maybe it’s set to private?
GODDAMNIT I MISSED THE SIGNUP
Hello #9119! I'm your Santa in the high tier. Just checking in to let you know I've done most of the shopping for your gift. Thank you for being so thorough on the questionnaire, it was a big help in making my selections. Happy to have been paired with another sweet lolita too.
Only a few days until the shipping deadline! I hope everyone is getting ready!
silly question but if i'm only doing card tier this year, do i need to send proof of shipping my cards?
>>10965323Oh, I see that's quite unclear from the FAQ! People are expected to send proof of shipping in the card tier as well as the gift tiers, so please do!If you don't have a receipt, it's also okay to send a photo of the card, or other things that might serve as proof.I'll make the FAQ more clear for future years!
Omg! When I opened the gift I screamed! Not only did my match spoil me, she bought two things off of my wishlist! I am ecstatic! Thank you so much!
My card matches were wonderful, too! I can't say thank you enough--you all made my Christmas even better! <3
Thank you so much #3568, the chococat stickers will definitely go in my journal for the next year. And the ring is perfect, it was on my wishlist and now i can mark it off. Thank you so much again and i hope your holidays are cozy and wonderful!
My other card match #3879, i cant wait to wear the teacup necklace! I also already picked out a frame for the imai kira postcard and put the pin on my frilly themed pinboard. Thank you so much for the gifts, the card also was cute, have a wonderful holiday season.
Thank you 5349 for the lovely gift! I did not know AP had made a collaboration plushie with Wish Me Mell! So happy to add it to my collection! The Liz Lisa hat and the earmuffs will definitively be needed this winter <3 Hope you had a wonderful holiday and thank you again! / 3879
Thank you 2022 for the wonderful gift! I have been eying this exact bag from mellfy memory for ages and so was such a nice surprise! The AP hair ribbons will work perfect in my wardrobe and the My Melody plushie is so cute! Also really enjoyed the snacks you picked out <3 Thank you again and hope you have had a nice holiday! /3879
What a wonderful card to read #5349! Its neat that youve been a match before, i enjoyed the socks and all the goodies you sent me. I wish you a fantastic holiday season.
Still thinking about the previous year how I watched the thread for months but my match never posted even though I have super nice gifts even wrapped in themed wrapping paper and most items directly from their wishlist. I would curse her with a Netflix anime adaptation with her favourite franchise, but it has already received one.
#3568 here! thank you so much #3879 for the extras and the card! i hope you had a nice holiday!
>>10966423and thank you #7031 for the card as well! merry christmas, and happy new year!
Thank you so much #5349 for the card match! i appreciate that u added a gift even if it was just a card match, will definitely use the headband in the future. I think the dog design is so funny and it made me smile. The candy was tasty and a new thing to try, as well as the apple nail stickers- such a thoughtful touch that I can already imagine the fun designs I'll create with them! I hope your holiday season has been great. Thank you again.
