I already x'ed in the topic, so I'm in, the problem is I will be in an internet free environment during my christmas 20-27.12. So depending on when i'll get my "santee" i might be a little early or late with the gift.

Shoot them all! Be polite.

Just about a month until Christmas!

It is impossible to scam with this, other than the matching. But this will be an annual event, so even if it was a scam, it certainly wouldn't be for a few years.... lol

I will be posting a full list of the matches after Christmas, so please don't share who your Santee is before then!

Also, for those who believe I may be an Erotica 1 alt, feel free to check into her on evewho. Word on the street is that half of her alts are in Krypteia Operations, with the other half sharing her rather unique naming system.

Big smile

If you receive a Goon for a Santee, do not be alarmed and please remember it is the holiday season. Everyone should be able to enjoy it. However, to further dilute their participation, please share this even with all of your friends, corpmates, and random strangers you run into!

Once a year, Eve players come together to share the holiday spirit in a special Secret Santa. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=293660 Join mailing list "Secret Santa" without quotes to stay updated!

Yeah, I believe it was a scam. I already found it strange how many members of GSF were posting in this thread, not only the usual suspects..

(Erotica's main left Goons yesterday btw)

That being said, I won't let an awesome idea get ruined just because it was intended as a scam, so I am still in.
If Santa's Secret is out, is there anyone else willing to do the matching?

I like the idea, but the cynic in me says could be a nice little scam, whats to stop him sending you the name of an alt of his, rather than someone else here, or for example as you are not allowed to tell anyone who you are secret santa'ing to until after the event, he could give you all the same toon name to send to and you wouldn't know .......


Might be legit but ...

I seem confused. Are we supposed to be contracting anything to you before the 18th or is it just to see who is participating?

When Bon Scott died and he appeared before St. Peter at the gates of Heaven, St. Peter looked at his record and told him he couldn't get in. Just then, God screams at Peter, "Let him in, Karen Carpenter is driving me nuts. I want to hear some music with balls. We'll haggle over the paperwork later." At least I hope that's what happened.

I'm ready to get the merlin, this could be half the isk of the new player in game that wants to participate. Let's hope everyone will give sth nice they can afford, if not, well at least i'm going to make some player happy.
