Secret Santa 2016 (guidelines)

[Aku]

WEEK 2!!! (Thank you for this emoji gift... Masao...???? )

Thank you so much for the incredibly beautiful buttons you made for all my shrines, Santa!!! (You even remembered lil' upcoming Kags which makes my heart swell, and really motivates me to work hard on him because I've been struggling with my CZ project!!! ) I feel like you even went as far as to match the aesthetic of the buttons to the characters/shrines designed and I appreciate that you put so much thought behind them!! They're so lovely, and I'll definitely be uploading them to my shrines!! (I might wait until I find out who you really are so I can credit you properly, though? ) This time of year is always a bit difficult for me, so thank you for giving me a lil bit of joy every week! I HOPE YOUR SANTA IS SPOILING YOU JUST AS MUCH AS YOU'RE SPOILING ME.

YAY lol I'm so glad everyone is having fun!

Round 3 is due soon (this Saturday, Dec 17 before midnight), so I hope everyone is doing well. If you need help or might be running late, just let me know!

(I'll be working on a good reveal for everyone after the final round.)

[Masao]

Sent gifts out! I've been told some have turned up in spam, so if you didn't get anything, try checking there.

[Masao]

I've been given the OK to triple post....

Anyway, just in case my last email was worded too vaguely, you can reveal yourself in whatever way you'd like (or not) in the final round, since it's right before the reveal. You can either make your gifts obviously styled liked you, or drop major hints in your note or just outright say it.

I will be doing a special individual reveal when I send off gifts, and then doing a roundup of all the reveals the next day for everyone to see.

You can use this information however you want. Stick to covert gifting or leave the pretense. Whatever you feel like doing, go ahead.

I'm looking forward to the final reveal and this has been really fun to run.

(and sending you gifts to me asap, as early as possible, before midnight on the 24th Saturday would help a lot, I know it's a really busy time for people )
