IT’S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN: TMR SECRET SANTA 2020!! We know it feels like summer’s still going strong, but nevertheless, it’s time to get our secret santa going again!
Welcome, tmr fans old and new, to our TMR Secret Santa 2020!
Last year’s tmrss was so much fun and we’re so excited to run it again! Can’t wait to see all kinds wonderful tmr content emerge from it - fanfic, fanart, gifsets, manips/edits, fanvids… Just the kind of gift exchange we like to see!
You may be familiar with Secret Santas and how they work but, just in case, here is what will be happening:
Sign up for the Secret Santa by filling out our sign-up form. The information you give us in your sign-up form will be the deciding factor in both what kind of gift you’re going to create and what kind of gift you’re going to receive, so please make sure you read and fill it in carefully! You can specify favourite characters and ships etc. - or any that you don’t want to be featured in your gift, or don’t want to create for yourself.
You will then be matched with a giftee, for whom you will create your gift, according to their own Secret Santa wishes :))
Once you have finished making your gift, you will submit it to us via email or, if necessary, via a file sharing platform.
We will post all the gifts on this blog during the week running between Christmas Day (25th Dec) to New Year’s Eve (31st Dec) for your recipient (and for the fandom) to enjoy. Have fun perusing all the beautiful new content and, if you like, making your guesses, but please maintain secrecy, that’s part of the fun!
The big Secret Santa reveal will take place on 5th Jan, when we will post a list of all the Santas involved and tell you who created which gift.
After that, you’re free to post the gift you created anywhere else (your own tumblr, your lj etc.).
——————————————————————————
Now, we all love a good deadline, so here is the timeline for the Secret Santa:
1st September - Signups are now open!
27th September - Signups close
11th October - Secret Santa assignments sent out
13th December - Gifts due in
25th December - Gifts start being posted on our blog
5th January - the Big Secret Santa Reveal!
——————————————————————————
This is going to be so fun! We’d love to have lots of tmr fans getting together to brighten our fandom and each other’s festive periods with these gifts, so please sign up, share, reblog, tell your friends – however you want to do it, tell your friends and spread the word :D Let’s show tmr some love!
If you want to be a part of the exchange, but are unsure whether you’ll be able to commit, then there are options to become either a Pinch Hitter (someone who makes a gift, possibly at short notice, if a santa drops out or is otherwise unable to complete their gift) or a Beta Reader - details about this can be found here.
You can find more info, and the rules and guidelines, in the top bar on our main page, and make sure to follow this blog so you can keep up to date with all the latest news and announcements.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions! :)
Have fun!!!!
