There are six weeks until the end of the year holidays and a stretch of days-off coming soon in November. Let us get started planning for this year’s Secret Santa Gift Art Exchange (early) to increase volunteer sign-ups and have more time to work on submissions.

What is the Drunk Duck Secret Santa?

Secret Santa is an annual art-trade, similar to a White Elephant gift exchange, where you sign-up in the forums and write a quick description of what you would like someone else to draw. The request can be as open-ended or as detailed and specific as you would like. Once all interested participants submit their intention to join in on the festivities, names go into a random name generator (or a top hat filled with names) in order to be selected at random.

Please keep in mind that there will only be a window of a little over three solid weeks after assignments are given, so keep requests relatively manageable.

~~~

How Secret Santa works:

~Reply to the Networking & Community Projects, Secret Santa thread with your gift request before the end of sign-up deadline.
~When sign-ups close, everyone is assigned a secret random assignment via PQ.
~You will have until Christmas (at least a few weeks lead time) to complete your assigned gift and present it on a gift thread (to be posted later).
~Any gifts not completed by the deadline will be reassigned to a volunteer on the DWC (dead weight committee).

~If you need more time, you will need to contact the organizer (me, I guess) before the deadline or be labeled as “deadweight” and have your assignment reassigned. (Deadweight will not be permitted to participate next year.)

Timeline:

Sign-ups: Now to November 30th
Assignments: December 1st
Gift Deadline: December 25th

DWC Assigned: December 26th
DWC Deadline: January 1st

To participate, reply in the forums with your request (can be as specific or vague as you want). If asking for art of a particular character, links to good reference art/pages are helpful.

Also please mention if you are interested in being part of the DWC.
