IC Secret Santa Sign Up

[kaisoumods]

IC SECRET SANTA SIGN-UP

Hey guys! While the official plotting post for December will be going up the 28th, this is a plot element that requires a little extra planning!

During December as part of the holiday season, Zodiac will be holding a IC Secret Santa among Libra app users as a PR stunt. While ICly, these secret santa sign ups will be compulsory for the characters, OOCly for players this is completely voluntary! Basically you're signing up your character to get assigned a secret santa by Zodiac. The IC justification is that they were randomly selected for this program.

Sign ups will be open until November 27th @ 6pm EST. After that, the secret santa assignments will be decided via mostly RNG done by the mod team. From there, it's up to you to decide what gift your character will get their secret santa receiver. You can thread out the gift exchange or drop them a note in their IC inbox about their gift (or on the gift giving meme that'll be going up later)!

Should a character fail to give a secret santa gift:

If it was ICly intentional: If the character would INTENTIONALLY skip out on secret santa, please let us know during sign-ups. We will make sure they are either assigned to someone with the same Scrooge mindset, or the character meant to get a gift from them will get a gift from Zodiac instead. They will then get a temporary curse for the month of January that'll be decided by the mods and the player.

If it WASN'T cleared ahead of time: If you sign up, proceed to fail to give your secret santa a gift by January 1st without communicating to the mods about it ahead of time (aka, please contact us if something comes up that makes you unable to follow through), then your character will be docked four regain points. Meanwhile their intended gift receiver will then get a gift from Zodiac. Basically, we only want people signing up if they fully intend to follow through, because it's not fun for other people when their character doesn't get any gifts.

If you're interested, go ahead and comment with the form below! Sign-Up will be open until November 27th @ 6pm EST.
<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Will the character give a gift?:</b> (if your character ICly would not give a secret santa gift, let me know and I'll assign accordingly and talk to you later about a potential curse) <b>Character Age:</b> <b>Likes:</b> (list at least 3 things the character likes) <b>Dislikes:</b> (list at least 3 things the character dislikes) <b>Anything else:</b> Any notes you'd like a potential secret santa to know
