Sorry for the change of title Santa Swap abbreviates to S.S, and I just don’t like that! SNS sounds so much better!
I am going to place the rules (and my additions to it, in parens) here so that next year we can announce this just after Thanksgiving and start at Nov 30th.
-Each person who participates must put up a list of 5 ‘presents’ that they’d like to receive. (I’ve seen years where people were almost begging to give others things~SO, coming up with an expandable list is advisable!)
-If you receive a present you must give a present back!!!(Yes, to the one that Gave it to you…) (If you have got a gift, and do for some reason get sick, and/or Hm less for a time, to try to give something back when you can, and if Santa swap is closed, give it on their personal thread.{this will make you feel better.})
-If you make a custom pose/item/background as a present include the text string so the person receiving the gift can use it.
-Don’t ask a specific machinist to give you a present, whilst they may be happy to do it, you’re excluding others from giving that gift. (and someone you may not have thought of, may have a better solution than you thought of.)
-You can ask for hand drawn items if you wish, just don’t expect them to be done.
-If your list is completed, it’s up to you to tell people if you want them to carry on giving you stuff off your first list (if you ask for redesigns and stuff like that) or if you want them to give you other stuff, in which case you can put up an extra present on your list.
Of course this isn’t really a contest, it’s just the only category this thing fits in. It’s more a fun way of getting into the Christmas spirit, heromachine style.
(If you receive a gift NOT on your list{for some reason}, say thank you, and give a gift back.
If you want to give a specific Hm’er a gift, but do NOT want to join the Swap, then it’s best to work out the details on your personal threads)
