Im confused on how to complete the anime reccomendation activity - Could someone help?
@WeaponArchitect You're already signed-up for anime recommendations so for now all you have to do is confirm that you want to participate (you should have received a message from an elf about that).

Around December 10th, you will receive your recipient's name and you'll be able to write your recommendation/s for them. The elf is going to send you all the instructions you need on how that works at the same time. You can also send a private message to the elf if you need any help!

@Dwarf-N-Dandy The Santa's Workshop is where the elves live and organize this event. Don't worry, an elf will send you the name of your recipient and where you need to send your gift around December 10th! If you already confirmed your participation, you don't have anything else to do for now

@nishimiya16 Sorry, the workshop is at full capacity for this year, but thank you for offering you help! Every year, the workshop needs help so please offer again if you're still interested during the next Secret Santa.

An elf will send you your recipient and all the instructions you need around December 10th! Including where to send the gift, what you need in your recommendation/s, etc. 😊

How do I sign up for this?
@Senpai_Silver Well, there are three different events you can sign-up for:

Event #1: Personalized Anime Recommendations
Event #2: Personalized Manga Recommendations
Request an anime/manga rec (based on certain criteria) and gift a personalized rec to another user!

Event #3: Personalized MAL Images
Request a custom-made/shopped image to use on MAL (profile picture, forum signature, etc.)
and gift a personalized MAL image to another user!


You're free to sign-up for more than one, but please keep in mind that it'll take a lot more time.

The sign-ups for the events are here:
#1: Anime Recommendations
#2: Manga Recommendations
#3: Images

Please read the first post in those threads very carefully, everything you need to sign-up is there! There's only a few hours left before the sign-ups close so you might need to hurry up a little.

Ok yes i am confused. I made my post with the request template for an anime. Does this mean i am signed up to gift and recieve? I see it says that you will be removed if you don't confirm the PM sent on Nov 29. I don't have any such PM (i assume because i didn't sign up until today.) Does this mean i am out of luck this year? 🥺🥺🥺

@Filthy0120 Don't worry, the confirmation messages are sent in waves. Since you signed up not too long ago, the elves haven't sent yours yet, but you should be getting it soon. The confirmation deadline is tomorrow night (PST timezone usually) and the elves make sure the last people that signed-up get enough time to confirm.

@NishimiyaChoran It's better to not change name during Secret Santa, but it's all good. Telling the workshop like you did is what you had to do, thank you! I'll tell the elves so they can change your sign-up, but everything should be fine.

My concern coming from the sign up form Kineta posted there since previously there's a part where you confirm to receive the gift only or also giving the gift. Currently its actually none. But eh now its answered since the confirmation coming from the Google form. So yeah, idk if mine gets through at this time, since my limit to online kinda annoying but yeah, cheers to the reply and hope for the best to this event!
