| Like I already said I'd like to help again this year with everything~ (previously known as prez-anna) |
   |
| Is it too much to ask for both an anime and manga recommendation? Also, if you're short of help this year I'll volunteer as tribute an elve. I don't mind matching lists and distributing gifts. Though, I could also PM encouraging words. |

Astros said: Hmm... Sure, okay. I'll add "both" as an option for Anime/Manga. But if you want to receive both, you should be prepared to give both ;)Is it too much to ask for both an anime and manga recommendation? Spiderman said: If you want to participate in the recommendation gift exchange, don't forget to sign up in the thread! We only need a couple of elves to organise and run the event. They aren't gifting recs.Sounds interesting, I suppose I'll join in and help out with a recommendation. |
| I'd like to be a volunteer,no matter in what :) i like helping in stuff like that ^^ and I'm new here so this way I'll be more integrated in MAL :) |

About the troll recommendation: If I say "yes" to it, will I obligatorily receive a troll rec or I just might receive it? And also, being a troll rec, all the requirements (e.g. "Min-Max length") can be ignored or should they still be followed? |

| I'm up for being an elve in whatever position except matching users lists. =) EDIT: Added a smiley face so that it doesn't look as depressing as it did before~ |

 Forum set made by my secret santa, Nate! |
| My final exams end the 14th so I'm free to help out after that to distribute gifts if you need extra hands~ |
  |
| Yep, gonna participate this year around, too. |
| Can't participate this year cuz of work but good luck to all the participants . |
 |
| Ohhhhh HELLL YEAAAHHH I'm gonna get my goody bag and Santa Hat for this one! |
| I've been here way too long... |
amazingbrian said: Evidently not. Was almost excited there. Whew.so this isn't a secret santa where you buy an actual gift and mail it to them? |
 Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur. |
| For the image, is it limited to shopped/computer edited pictures? Or are there any reasons one can't draw something for someone? PM me the answer please <3 |
 💙 Set by:Gabby_Chan💙 Strawberry |
| I can help out. I'm always on MaL and always bored, so just tell me what to do and I'll do it. I assume you will PM me info and what to do when the time comes. |
| Brace yourself. Soon as LotGH 2017 comes out. The anime community is going to become so cancerous you will need to take cover and hide. |
| I'd like to gift a recommendation, sounds fun! |
| Good luck and have fun~ |
 |
| I'd like to help matching up the recommendation Secret Santa list and I can PM them, too. Also, if there isn't any problem with it since I've signed up for the image Secret Santa, I can give out pointers to stuck Santas! |
| I'll help with matching up the secret santas |
 |
| I joined for Manga rec, but since i've only read 8 (on going not counting) think there is no problem ? Would be cool to see more people like me getting into manga |
 |
| I'd be glad to help :3 - PM SANTAS AND ENSURE THEIR GIFTS ARE COMING ALONG WELL - GIVE POINTER TO STUCK SANTAS AND - DISTRIBUTE GIFTS |
| Uhuh :o I never saw this last year, I must have missed it. |

| If requested, I could help matching up the recommendation Secret Santa and send PM. |
ZelphySnow said: Do we have to participate in both the events or it can be any event? You can participate in both events or just one of them :) |
| I'd love to give out a personalized image! I've been working a lot on my editing lately. On the other hand, recommendations sound interesting as well. I guess I'll just do both.^-^ These mal events sound like a lot of fun. |
Hollily_Pip said: wait so how do you enter? I'm new to MAL but I really like the idea of event 2, however I only really watch magic themed animes lol Go to this thread http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1458874 and fill out the form. But make sure your animelist is updated so the elves (the helpers of the event) can match you with someone, and your Secret Santa will not accidentally recommend you something that you've already seen. |
| Looking forward, i volunteer :3 |
 NINGEN.. |
| For the Recommendation Edition, if I put in "both" for the "♫ Rec type (anime, manga, either, or both):" section, will I get a recommendation for both an anime and a manga which I have to return with both, or will it be just either of them. If that's the case then I will have to come up with two recommendations, one for an anime and one for a manga, and I'll receive 2 recommendations back, one for anime and one for manga right? I know this question sounds stupid but I just don't want to just get only one recommendation from one type of media if I chose "both". Because if that's the case, I will just but down "anime". |
