Should we .. um .. do a ISK cap or something... It be embarrassing to receive a 1 billion isk item and give someone some fireworks

Have you considered how to deal with alts created to recieve presents or using multiple characters to recieve presents without giving? Can Santas be assured that the OP is not using alts to recieve presents?

What I'm saying is, the OP and Santas may need to provide character API.

Please don't bring Grinch thoughts here. This is meant to be fun. I will have a complete list on a google doc after the event is done. We have a major donor stepping up to help if any of that happens. She has already x'ed up but I am keeping her identity secret to avoid trolls coming out of the woodwork.

Wait wait wait.

I'm confused.

How are you going to scam people out of their isk?

Where is the benefit to you?

WHY DO YOU HATE CHRISTMAS?!

I'm in. I'ts a fun idea with some room for "win".

Might as well be "in" with my "main". Non one likes my forum alt Cool


- would it make it fun if we got to see people "unwrap" the gifts (i.e. a list of who gave what to who ?.. might encourage some colorful ideas --
- don't want to make it too complicated though.

Yes, a list of the pairings will be made available after Christmas so not to ruin the surprise, but provide full transparency. At that time, I will ask people to post pics of what they got.
