Stealthy Santa (aka Secret Santa)
Dear fellow Assassins!
X-Mas is getting closer by the day, so it’s time to set this up again!
Welcome back to Stealthy Santa !
Nobody is forced to join - because I can’t and I want ppl to do this because they feel like sharing and being nice and all that! So no obligation what so ever!
But I would be happy it some of you are like “awesome, where do I have to sign?” right now ;)
You can sign here, btw! Right now! Go on, do it, I know you want to!
So how shall this work?
First off the most important part:
Fellow Assassins! I shall collect names until the 30th of November! and hand them out on that evening (aka German evening!), so we have 24 days until x-mas!
I would strongly suggest to add EVERY other Assassin that participates to your friendlist on steam, so nobody can guess right away who is gonna be his or her stealthy Santa!
On to the other important part:
PRESENTS! So we are all here on BLAEO because we like playing games. And to celebrate that, we shall only hand out games! (So everything is virtual, no need to send a package around the world or stuff!)
I don’t mind at all what you hand out. You can actually buy a game on steam and sent it as gift or get a key or whatever. I would recommend a limit though. And since I’m in Europe I say 10€, just as a guideline.
Another thing I would recommend: Stalk your prey (we are after all Assassins and thorough, right?). Learn what they would like (have a look at the wishlist or look up what they play or something?) and then gift them something they would like. Guess it would be a bit disappointing to get a game you wouldn’t wanna play. Well, you probably know how that works best, right?
Some added info to make some points more clear:
The 10€ guideline is supposed to set an amount of money that is not insanely high nor sadly low but can hopefully work out for everybody. You can get multiple games for that amount or just one. You may get game(s) on normal price with it, but if you feel kind and generous, you may as well get something on discount, so that in the end the value of the game given is higher. But most of all it’s about giving something the receiver will like so please be considerate and don’t just hand over leftovers from some bundles nobody wants ;). Hope that didn’t confuse more hide
As for the regional limitation to buy gifts via steam: I’ll not throw ppl from a region together to avoid this, instead I suggest getting keys and gifting them. That way there shouldn’t be a problem.
Concerning the drawing: I will try it first with the lottery system (aka folding papers and drawing them) aaaaand if that doesn’t work out, I’ll look for some random Generator. Worked out fine the last years, so I’ll stick with that :3
Sadly I had last year a complaint about not getting as much back as was given. Which imho is not how this should be. If you take place in Secret Santa, pls be prepared to get a game of less value, than the one you gift. But it should still always be something around 10€!
I hope you like the idea and hop aboard!
As always: Complaints can be posted below.
I shall make a list of Stealthy Santas!
MERRY X-MAS!
