Welcome to what I hope to be the first annual Ridemonkey Secret Santa!!

Ok for thoes of you who don't know what a secret santa contest is or how it works on the internet this is what it is and how it works.

Ok the basic idea of a secret santa is a gift exchange where the Santa knows who they are giving to (their Elf) but the Elf doesn't know who's giving to them till they get the gift. Each Elf will also be a Santa to somebody different than the person giving to them.

Ok with that said here are the rules!!

Rules:

<>The last day to sign up is November 20th.
<>You will recieve your Elf (person you are buying the gift for) and their information by November 25th.
<>They member MUST recieve their gift on or before the evening of December 20th. Failure to complete this will result in a 1 month ban. (YES this has been cleared thru Ridemonkey himself)
<>If you back out at the last minute, you will be banned. DO NOT enter if you CAN NOT keep your word.
<>Seriously people, this is the first year we're gonna do it we don't want it to be the last.
<>The gift should be at LEAST $25. Don't spend $100 expecting to get $100's worth of gifts. You decide how much money you are willing to spend. I would say try not to spend over $50 unless your Loco stalking DH Girlie.
<> Also you must have atleast 250 posts to be eligible.

I sent you my email. This should be cool as long as a lot of people do it. What are you goibng to do about international people though? Are you going to try and match people up in the same country or completely random?

Thats is pretty hard to do... I guess I'm just gonna kinda work that out as it comes. Candians I probably will since we have a lot of them. Otherwise... the santa may just have to figure the shipping into the gift more so than domestic ones would.

I'm in. My gift better be totally sweet. I'll email you later today.
Well the person who gets you I'm sure well take it as a great responsibility.....




On that note....


Send something creative, or make the packaging creative, something relating to RM or maybe not. Use your imagination, be different. Take pictures and send them to rmsecretsanta@gmail.com before you send your gift. I will put all those up in a poll after all this is over, and have RM vote. It will probably be after Christmas but I'll get the person with the highest vote an extra little something.

What if we have 900+ on a different forum, but have figured out that the forum is for children and that RM is alot cooler? I work at a shop so i could get a badass gift.

I'm not sure about the "what you would like to receive" part. You tell your Santa what to get you? Or is it just some general guidelines?

No, do not tell santa exactly what you want..... santa should figure it out for himself/herself (check out where your Elf posts: DH vs road vs XC), read those posts and any in the lounge, you'll have almost 3 weeks do some research !!

General guidelines are fine. Some people asked for certain bike parts which is fine, doesn't mean you're gonna get it.

Someone could always buy her a thong and embroider it to say "Go big or go home" lol. :p

Also, when do you think you will be drawing the names? (I'm too lazy to look at the first post and just had to make this seem slightly on topic)
