Christmas Masquerade!
10 Nov 2010

Dear Shelfers,

Christmas and New Year are coming. During this year we managed to become good friends, so… how about adding some magic to the upcoming holidays?

Let’s make a Christmas Masquerade with presents!

This event will take a while, so keep patience and study the rules carefully. What we propose is to make a Christmas present for someone from our community. And you will get a present in return. But you won’t know from whom it is until you actually open it!

What can be considered a present?

a Christmas card
something made by yourself (for example, a scarf)
any other small item (a trading figurine, whatever)
off course, you can buy something expensive, but no regrets when you receive a pair of socks in return

If you want to participate, leave a comment below. After that you will receive a PM with a mask of a participant in it (a picture). It is important: you should keep this mask secret no matter what! Another thing, you should answer to this PM, sending your real name and address (in order to receive your present later).

On the 21st of November — quickly get on our site. We’ll open a new topic showing all the masks which will participate in the Masquerade. Then we’ll be asking you to choose a mask. You can’t choose your own mask or the mask which was already chosen by other user. When every mask will find an owner, you will receive a second PM with the name and the address of a person, you should now send your present to. It is important: you will send your present to the person, who chose your mask (not vice versa). This way you won’t know who will make a present for you. It may sound complicated, but it’s me who will handle everything for you, so don’t worry.

After the 21st of November you will have the name and the address. Please send your present before the 5th of December, otherwise it may not come in time. Then what will be left to do is to wait for your own present. BTW, I’m participating as well. Awww… this is exciting!

Нет :) Маской она называется условно, на самом деле это просто картинка, которая будет олицетворять участие в мероприятии :)

Awrighty, I'm gonna give this a whirl. Also, just as a suggestion, you might want to have people in Europe send to Europeans and people on other continents matched up with folks from their continent - that would help reduce shipping costs for both parties.

Oh, I'm perfectly willing to ship internationally if need be; I just figured that it might help some people save some money.

На другом сайте уже принимала участие в подобной идее, было классно))

Можно лежать на мосту, смотреть, как течет вода. Или бродить по болоту в красных сапожках. Или свернуться клубочком и слушать, как дождь стучит по крыше. Быть счастливым очень легко!

Замечательная идея! Я учавствую

Вот только на счёт конфиденциальности - на посылке же будут указаны данные отправителя...
Или секретность предполагалась только до момента получения подарка? :)
