Yet another High Roller Summer edition! This is still technically an unofficial gift exchange, so please keep that in mind!
Any subscriber without a current BTR that has earned a Gold Star (
) is eligible to sign up
The details:
Signups are open now and will continue until Thursday, June 22nd. Partners will then be assigned and PM'd out within the following couple of days. Gifts must be received by Saturday, July 22nd
The target gift value for this exchange is $50 US. Gifts MUST be worth a minimum of $50 USD not including shipping costs. Every effort should be made to send a complete item. If you are sending something used, it should be complete and in at least "very good" condition. This is not a way to unload your unwanted crap. That said if the recipient is okay with cartridge/disc only, so be it!
Unfortunately, because it is too difficult to manage, I will not be allowing international users. If we develop a better management system in the future, I’d love to include everybody!
Tips/Additional Rules:
Look at your partner's wants and check his/her lists and posts. Put the same effort into selecting a gift for your partner that you would want someone else to put into yours.
If your partner has inadequate "wants", don't give up! Try to figure it out.
Make sure you provide adequate "wants" for your Santa. There should be at least 4-5 things on your list that fit in the target price/value range.
When you get assigned a partner, start figuring out what you are going to get them! Immediately. Don't wait until the last minute!
In most cases, the person that you are assigned to is NOT the same person that is assigned to you. In other words, you aren't just making a 1-to-1 exchange with someone. You're buying a gift for someone that, most likely, is buying a gift for someone else entirely.
After you've received your gift, post in this thread thanking your Santa for what you received -- just so they know you appreciate whatever it was! (Or, if you've figured out who your Santa is somehow, you can just thank them privately if you'd rather.) Don't leave your Santa hanging without acknowledging their gift!
Problematic users will NOT be allowed to participate. Please keep this a drama-free gift exchange 
Keep in touch throughout. Communication is key!

Any subscriber without a current BTR that has earned a Gold Star (
) is eligible to sign upThe quick version of how to participate: Post here in the thread that you would like to participate! Send me a PM titled "High Roller Summer Secret Santa 2023 – Registration" The context of the PM must include both your address and want list.  This modification to the rules is to ensure everyone who signs up is ready to be partnered up, and to prevent any further delays. After you ship your gift, go back to the same PM titled "High Roller Summer Secret Santa 2023 " and provide any needed tracking information. After you receive your gift, go back to the PM "High Roller Summer Secret Santa 2023" and let me know that you received. Make sure to thank your Santa in this topic! |

Went ahead and added everyone who signed up. I'm extending the sign ups another day, since a few of you pointed out my typo crossing out the date, instead of bolding it.
I just figured an extra day extension might clear up any confusion that may have given I'm planning to assign partners that evening.
