Hello! I have a question regarding sending gifts to others. Are we supposed to send our gifts by commenting on their profiles or will we be sending our gifts via Google Forms? I'm sorry if this has been said in this forums already!

Since it is Secret Santa, you cannot send your gift directly to your recipient. Please, use the Google form the elves will send you with your recipient's name later.
The elves will collect it and forward it to your recipient. After the big reveal, feel free to contact both your Santa and recipient though!

I don't think you're supposed to send that here though.
Yeah, I know. I already posted in the other thread, not that I’ve gotten a response yet.


It takes a couple of days to receive the elves' confirmation DM. Mine took about 5 days.

Hi guys! Essentially, you should first sign up in the correct thread, and a couple of days later, you will receive your confirmation link via DM.
Then, around December 10th, you'll receive a DM with the user you should prepare your gift for, but as it's secret Santa, you will not send the gift directly to them. The elves will be in charge of delivering the presents, so they will know you earned the badge.
Or something along those lines.

Hello,

I would like to volunteer for "Santa's Workshop Needs Elves".
I have completed 121 animes and I have a generous amount of free time.
Of the five tasks mentioned, I should be able to complete tasks 2 and 3.

I tried joining the linked discord group but it said something about there being an issue with the verification system.

Please let me know how I can help.

We ask people to confirm because about 10% of people never do and we would have to make all of those gifts ourselves orz. Unfortunately, your anime tier is 100% matched so it's not possible add you in. However, you'll still get your elf gift for manga :)

You confirmed correctly, don't worry! We will send everyone their match as soon we're done arranging the list. Since we try to make sure every Santa has something to recommend to their recipient which meets their requests, it's kind of like a massive jigsaw puzzle...

For some reason I got no email notification of Elf-hime's message this year, even though my email notification settings haven't changed, and missed the confirmation deadline.
Guess there's no hope left, not happy about my 6-year streak breaking.

Probably through notification or more likely through our DM. The elfs are busy pairing santas and receivers and we will most likely be informed in the MAX next two days, possibly today/tommorow

You should have received a DM from an elf for confirmation if you registered before 4.12 and confirmed before 6.12. If you didn't register before the deadline then i guess you will not participate this year, my apologies.

I got the DM, but I didn't get the usual email notification for it, so I didn't see it.
This quote gave me an email, so I don't know why it skipped out on giving me one for the DM.

Hi! I'm in the same boat, confirmed before 12/06, but I wasn't sure if I had done something wrong on the form, or if I was all set to receive someone to make a gift for?

Also I still do not understand how to submit a gift and to whom or where?

They'll send you a DM explaining how to send your gift and who your recipient is. They're still busy matching people so nobody has gotten DMs yet. If you filled out the confirmation form I would assume you're good.
