2016 Secret Stan: The Trichy Claus Awakens

Pages

That's right, my merry little elves. It's that time again, time to don your gay apparel, hide in the bushes, and stalk one of your fellow Goodjers to discover what will truly jingle their bells, deck their halls, spin their dreidels, and make their yule tide so very very hard. It's time for the 2016 Secret Stan!

We kicked this off last year at the beginning of October, and it made a huge difference, giving everyone more time to sign up and plot their diabolical merriment. As per last year, we're going to set the deadline for before Black Friday to allow everyone to take advantage of those deals if they so choose. The basic rules are below, and if you have any questions, as usual, just email me at the address as follows.

- There is no minimum, there is no maximum. Get what you can, and I promise you that your victim will adore it. This will be my fourth year doing this, and I have not once gotten a complaint about a gift.
- The deadline will be November 15. This will give everyone plenty of time to sign up and to let me know any potential issues that might crop up. I will begin pairing people on that date, and will have everyone paired up by November 18.
- Submit your information with this form. If you don't want people you've had before, make sure you list that. In addition, the more information you can give me on what you want (Amazon wish lists, likes and dislikes, bondage gear sizes, etc.), the easier a time your Stantee will have of it.
- Your Trichy Claus may be cavalier with his attitudes on many things, but your privacy and security is not one of them. I will transfer all information from the Google Form data to my portable hard drive, which is password protected and kept with me at all times. Once transferred, I will remove your information from the cloud, so Snowden or Al Gore doesn't grab it for nefarious purposes.

Let me know if you have any questions, and remember, it's your holiday cheer that keeps me looking so ruggedly handsome, so don't skimp this year.

In. Haven't filled out the form yet, but in.

Don't know if I'll be in this year, our finances took a huge hit from multiple house issues in the last month, but favorited the thread. I love this part of the year here!

You know I am in!!!

In like Flynn - I'll work on the form tomorrow

Nooo! I'm not ready to be generous yet! *pout*

It's not time yet. It can't be.

I'm out this year; it doesn't seem right for moderation to get involved in gift exchanges. In fact, I'd like to volunteer to help manage it so trichy could actually get gifts for once.

If it were any other forum, I would agree with you. But here, amongst fellow goodjers? Join in Dee...

Disagree.

It's your right to sit out if you choose of course, but moderation responsibilities don't part you from the community. You were nominated in the P&C reform thread and Certis ratified it because you're a valued member of the community.

In that light, why would we challenge your impartiality because of a gift exchange. I mean, come on. You still actively participate in political threads, what makes this different?

It's up to you, dee, but think on it. Just because you're moderators now, it doesn't mean you and Hyp should miss this annual nonsense. Or the Sea/ShawNs for that matter.

f*cking right, Brian.

Join us usssss Dee!

(Also in. Will fill out form soon)

Unlike last year, I filled out the form right now, so I won't forget. TIME TO START THE CHRISTMAS MUSIC

Moderators? They hold no sway here. This is the domain of Trichy Claus. I bow to no master, and all elves are equal supplicants before my terrible judgement!

Or, phrased another way, I run this because it's my way of giving back to everyone who works to make this community the great place it is. You can join, Certis can join, the newest coffee grinder to the most veteran of golden tag holders may join. Place yourself in my loving, clammy hands and enjoy.

I just found a box of spiders in the garage today, so I am extra in! Thanks for doing this again, Trichy.

In and form submitted!

Also added an announcement to the GWJ Slack directly folks here and to the sign-up form.

All Sverige Jul Massive Represent!

So very in.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

I'm only signing up if Dee signs up!

Dee is just concerned that she's been naughty.

I am in, and if a front-page writer can be in then why can't Dee?

No reason, I says!

I'm in as per usual.

I'm in as well. Love this thread.

Straight in! I can't believe I somehow missed it last year.

Put my name on the list! Can't wait. Always a fun time.

Start your stalking preparations! I have more fun with this than shopping for my parents (and you guys get better stuff from me to boot!)

I'll join this year if dimmerswitch does.
