Interest Check- Christmas Event |

This is actually a bit late, but since there are still 16 days until Christmas I suppose it could still work.

I'm originally from WoW, WRA for anyone else who might have migrated here, and the last Christmas I was there someone held a sort of "Dirty Santa" gift trading event. What is Dirty Santa you ask? It has many names throughout the world but it's basically where you bring a gift, everyone picks a gift, and you walk away with something that sits in your closet until next year, fun fun.

So what the person did was ask anyone who wanted to participate to buy a gift, with a gold range of course, and then mail it to them. It was on the honor system but with 40 people sending you presents your reputation would sink fairly quickly if you were to rip everyone off. Moving on, people could participate all the way until 12 am of December 25th. At that time, the person would take said collected gifts and mail them randomly to all the people who participated. I myself got a pet that year that was above the gold cap set, but I think the cap is more of a 'don't expect to get more than this' kind of thing and people could be generous if they wanted as long as they didn't expect it back in return.

So, would anyone in the community find interest in this? Please reply and have a good day!

Where do I start?

I would love to participate in this, and even help organize it if that kind of assistance is needed. This is a wonderful idea.

I'll probably end up doing this. Even if it's as few as 5-6 people it's still a fun event : )
The only thing I see questionable is the amount of gil as a limit. Not much is under 50k anymore, but if I remember right the original creator of the event substituted gifts that were below par with better ones in the case of a low level who couldn't afford better gifts...Which I am completely fine with doing.
