@theanimefreak95, @TheNerdyPanda, @@Kirigiri-Kyouko, @ElleTakigawa, @ClinT, @Stijn_king, @AvatarTrix, @Sasori_Puppets, @TheDiabolicEsper, @Zoushu, @Pippyh, @Kikzfrost: To participate, you need to sign up via the links in the first post under "Sign-Up Threads!".
@tirafesi: No, you do not need to gift a manga rec if you ask for one. If you ask for both an anime and a manga rec, you will need to gift twice though. We look at the size of everyone's lists when we do the match-ups to make sure people with tiny manga lists don't need to gift to people requesting manga.
@Frey: I looked at our master sheet for last year's event, and it seems we didn't receive a confirmation that you were still in. If you never received a PM from Elf-pyon asking you to confirm your participation, then our elves must've accidentally missed sending you the PM :( I'm really sorry if that's the case and I'll do my best to make sure no one gets missed this year.
@Shuuka: It is possible to both participate and help out as an elf. We do the match-ups in such a way that you don't get spoiled about your Santa.
@Karlstein_L-11: Didn't know they celebrated St. Nick's in Hungary, too :) Or at least, that's what I'm thinking you mean.
@zombie_pegasus: Yep, your post looks good. ((Perhaps you're thinking of the announcement I made in like June... eh heh. Last year we asked users to commit to writing a review at the beginning of the event, and we had additional restrictions on the series—mainly, that they couldn't be "well-known". It ended up being a lot of work for the elves though, because many users who signed up couldn't actually recommend series that met this criteria... so we had to make a bunch of additional gifts ourselves. Then only half the signups actually wrote reviews... With so many more participants this year, it seemed best to scrap it or reinvent it a little later.))
@kitsune0: Forum avi = forum avatar.
@SoulEaterQUEEN: You can participate in both events and volunteer as an elf. I do it regularly each year.
@Greed, @Hinaaa: I'm asking elves to help with everything this year, not specific tasks. With the button on the header, we're likely to get way more participants, and we've had trouble in previous years with having enough people at crucial times.
@VNTRevolution: We don't organise anything related to physical gifts or money, for various reasons.
@RomanceZero: Yes.
@cocoasheen, @TheMoeMan: Please read the first post and/or ask more specific questions.
@SpikeykoaLa: We've had some drawn gifts in the past.
@ziggy_Z: Please see the Frequent Questions in the first post.
@Kamidox: Yes, you can request both an anime and manga recommendation. In this case, we'll assign you to either gift both an anime and manga rec, or gift two anime recommendations if your manga list is too tiny. (Equal exchange.) If you only want to gift one but don't care if it's anime or manga, choose either.
@overlord035: To participate in Event #2, you need to sign up via the links in the first post under "Sign-Up Threads!". As for elves, I'm asking elves to help with everything this year, not specific tasks. With the button on the header, we're likely to get way more participants, and we've had trouble in previous years with having enough people at crucial times.
@TypicalGC7: Yes, this is our 4th year.
@Conde_Mohr: More detail is given on the deadlines in the Sign-Up threads (linked in the first post). |
