I’m really sorry, everyone, but we don’t have enough participants to run this year’s Secret Santa :(

Sorry to everyone who’s signed up and was looking forward to it. We just don’t have enough people to move forward :(

[santapoldark]

Today is the last chance to sign up to this year’s Poldark Secret Santa!

You have until midnight GMT tonight to sign up.

Please come and join us, or we won’t have enough people to run it, and that would be a real shame :(

[santapoldark]

Last chance! We can run at a pinch now, but more is definitely better! Please come and join us, it’s so much fun choosing for and receiving gifts from fellow Poldark fans!

Welcome back to the fifth (and probably final) year of the Poldark Secret Santa!

When is it? Signups are open now and will close on 15th November. You will then have a few weeks to ‘stalk’ your giftee, choose and assemble a Secret Santa package for them, and post it off. You should aim to get it to them by Christmas.

What does it involve? A physical parcel to be sent to your more-or-less-randomly assigned recipient. The value of the parcel should be no less than £15 and no more than £25. You should feel free to stalk your recipient’s blog, ask them questions (on anon, of course!) and generally try to find out what sort of thing they might like to receive. Hint: they like Poldark.

Why are you doing this? Spreading holiday cheer and fannish friendship.

Do I have to give out my address? Yes, but only to me. I will keep all the names and addresses in one place, I will pass the address on only to the person who will be your Secret Santa, and I will delete your details after the Secret Santa is over.

What if I run out of time, or something means I can’t send a parcel? Let me know as soon as possible. If anybody can act as a last-minute substitute Santa for unavoidable circumstances, please let me know so that nobody will be without a parcel.

Do I have to be able to post a parcel internationally? No. If anybody specifically can’t send a Santa parcel to another country (for example, to the USA from the UK), please say so in your sign-up. That way I can make sure to match you up with somebody from your own country if necessary.

How do I sign up? Send an ask! To make my life simpler, please include the following in your ask: username, address (including the name you want your parcel to be addressed to), country, and whether you can ship internationally or not. If you can act as a last-minute substitute Santa, please include that information as well.

What happens then? I will send each of you a message back to confirm that I’ve received your sign-up. I’ll remind people periodically that sign-ups are still open. Then on 15th November I will close sign-ups and assign partners. I’ll send another message to let you know who you need to stalk. Then it’s up to you!

What if I have another question? Feel free to send me an ask at any point.

Parcels have now been sent to all but two recipients. Those two have messages letting them know that their parcels have been unavoidably delayed.

If you have not yet received your parcel, don’t worry. It is on the way to you.

If you have received your parcel, do let me know that it’s arrived safely.

Otherwise, assuming all is well for everybody, I shall say Merry Christmas and hope you all have a wonderful festive season :)

[santapoldark]

How is everyone getting on? I hope you’re all enjoying ‘stalking’ your recipients :)

Don’t forget to keep an eye on last posting dates, especially for those of you posting internationally!

Please let me know once you have posted your parcel, so I can tick you off my list.

Please also let me know once you’ve received your parcel.

As ever, if anyone has any problems, let me know as soon as possible :)

[santapoldark]

Everyone who has signed up should now have a message from me with details of their recipient.

If you think you’re signed up but haven’t had a message, let me know asap!

You can now go and anonymously ‘stalk’ your recipient, ask them questions, and put together a brilliant secret santa package for them :D

I will check in with you all in a couple of weeks to make sure you’re going to be able to send your parcel in time. Be aware of last posting dates!

As ever, any problems, get in touch and I’ll try to sort it out :)
