A little of late start this year but seeing if there is interest our year end A.S.S event. We'll in general follow the same rules from previous years (written by Sven).
Please read them. if you don't, i won't be chasing you up for details and you won't be in the draw… Some of you may have participated before, but for others, this may be the first time they've been in the A.S.S. Either way, it's worth knowing the rules... the part about pming me your address details in item d below is really important.
a. its a secret santa... i'm pretty much sure that everyone knows what that means, but what you do is buy a present (in secret) for another person that is participating. in turn you recieve a present from someone who is participating. you don't know who that person is until after the event when we can all share in the wonderful A.S.S. magic by showing gifts we received, but only if you choose to disclose who your giftee was....
b. you must have 25 posts at time of me writing this under your belt as well as having been a member for at least 6 months to participate. If you participated in the A.S.S last year and were one of the people Sven had to chase for not sending a gift, then kindly don't enter this year. You people were real A.S.S. holes.
c. add your name in a post below in this thread along with the words 'I LOVE the A.S.S.' or something like that....
d. immediately after posting, send me a pm with your name and address details (so i can pass them on to whoever draws your number). this confirms your participation. title your pm 'my address details' so i can find it easily. seriously, sorting through pms is a real A.S.S. pain, so please do title them. if i don't get an address via pm you are outside the inner sanctum of the A.S.S. and that is not somewhere you want to be.
e. approx. $30 / £20 target gift value. (not including shipping / postage)
f. cut off for all entries / participation posts to be completed by Friday December 12th 7pm PST. no entry by then - no A.S.S. for you this year.... I'll make the draw either on that evening or the day after.
g. when all entries are in, and i have your pm'd address details. i will perform a random name drawing by putting names in the hat, and will notify you by pm asap who you have drawn to buy for and their address details.
h. you go buy something art related around the $30 / £20 mark for the person you've drawn. look at the posts of the person you've drawn to either see what their likes and interests are, or buy something for them that reflects your likes and interests.... up to you!
i. try your best and get it shipped / posted to arrive in time for christmas!! either buy in person and ship yourself, or buy online and get it shipped direct.
j. you may well draw an international member - be aware of that, but don't be afraid... it's really not a problem. don't whine about it - you don't want to be a pain in the A.S.S. Wherever you are shipping to - please obtain a tracking number and/or use signed for delivery.
k. you must post a pic of your A.S.S. gift in this thread when received.
l. have a happy christmas, yo!
I guess that wraps it up for the rules....
Hopefully lots of members get a piece of A.S.S. this year!
thanks, and have fun.
