Might rename it, who knows o-o Anywho, I wanted to spread a lil holiday cheer and figured I'd do a little something like Secret Santa, but since I have a couple of favors to ask and there's already two of those going, I decided not to call it that ^^; The basic concept is there, but due to a bad personal experience with an exchange of this nature, all I ask is this:

If giving common creatures, please, please, PLEASE, only give them if A) the person collects that particular creature(s). Encourage the hoard. Be that person. B) the creature has a nice name you don't mind parting with. I like names. I've invested quite a lot in my name collection. A name would make a lovely gift, especially if that person collects names. Or C) that creature(s), for whatever reason, is on their wishlist and it's not for a hoard. Getting a WL creature is always nice. Doesn't have to be all three, doesn't even have to be one since I can't tell you not to do this, just one of the three will do.

I'm guessing, by this point, you know what happened with my exchange experience and you'd be right. I literally got five common creatures as my gift after I gave my partner five retired creatures they didn't have. That person, who I won't name, then gave all of the creatures in the gift I gave them away later that very same day, which made me feel worse. At least with what I'm asking, there's a chance you and your partner will get something you both want, which is my goal. I'm not trying to knock common creatures, but I felt like my partner was just trying to get rid of those creatures and just dumped them off on me because it was convenient and also that they didn't even want the gift I tried to give them. That really discouraged me and made me feel like I wasn't worth putting effort into and I don't want anyone else to feel like that, especially since this is a Christmas gift exchange. So, with this being said, I honestly hope everyone gets something they like or can use c:

Entry Deadline is Dec 1st.

Gonna say this now so I don't forget it later. Once you get your partner, you can give the gift anytime, but ideally, gifts should be given Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Please try to give your gift by, say, New Year's Eve. If you don't have a gift by then, please pm me c: I'll find something for you 😉 Just don't try to lie to me o-o I'll be checking with everyone to see if they've received something, so I will catch ya if ya try to lie to get an extra gift.
