I would participate. Maybe have a minimum 1000 posts. Or something else to prevent cheating.

But yeah, they idea is awesome.

In the Penny Arcade forums, the Secret Santa evet is pretty simple: you don't send a gift after you've signed up, and you're banned.

Forever.

Now I'm not saying that that's a necessary thing to do but I think it would add a nice layer of security in addition to the postcount minimum.

The only problem I see is that it's quite easy to set up an alternate account here, so a permaban isn't all that big a punishment. Maybe we can have a voucher system, in which one or two other members have to vouch for you being trustworthy?  Although the minimum post thing is a good idea, even if 1000 seems a tad high. I'll think of something.

And glad to hear that there's some interest. I'll get the ball rolling next week, and we can send out our gifts about a week before Christmas.

 

 

What a great idea :) We're doing a Secret Santa at work but I bet no-one will buy me a Wii game...

Only problem - I'm guessing that my tiny post count doesn’t inspire confidence :( Any (sensible) ideas about how I can prove my trustworthiness?!
