Big thank you to my Secret Santa. I dont have a snowman, and can always use more HC/copper! Thanks to @Puck for running it this year.
Merry Christmas, UOR!!! Tis the season!!! I picked up my gift from @Puck this evening. First of all, thank you for running it this year. My gift had a bit of humor to it. At first, I was informed I had been naughty, and would be getting coal, and sure enough: Now, I wasn't too upset about this. As I mentioned to a few people, the SS event is about giving, not receiving. I spend more time making my gifts look good and tailoring them to my charge, than I do calculating the value of the presents. A little snooping, however (encouraged by the very lovely note), showed that the gift was more than it originally seemed. Thank you to my Secret Santa for the gift! Thanks to Puck for putting on the event. Thanks to everyone who participated this year. This event is wonderful, but it wouldn't be anything without the community support. Merry Christmas, everyone!!!!
Merry Puckmas! Huge thanks to my secret santa who truly spoiled me this year! Another thanks to @Puck for doing so much heavy lifting for this event and thanks to all of those that helped. It has been rough this year and I hope everyone has a truly wonderful Christmas!
Thanks to both Santas and Santa Puck. I haven't even fully taken stock of everything yet. Santa Puck had to make 2 trips!! Merry Christmas UO:R! First up T1. Thank you especially for the free hair restyle as it has been a long year with no hair cuts. And now T2 You have easily doubled my item count! Thank you for all the Deco, statues and weapons. Thank you especially for the Furni dye and Chests as I am currently reorganizing. At least I have a couple of fancy chests to store it all in while I go through it all.
Someone sorted me right out for Xmas. Tier 1! Thanks to @Puck and whoever this generous geezer/gal was! Merry Christmas People. Hope its a good one.
Thank you to my Tier 1 and 2 Secret Santas! Love the Skull Candle, Animating Essence and alchemy rares! I'll definitely do it again next year
A very special thank you to my Tier 2 secret santa. As you can see, I was so excited I started unpacking before taking a screenshot of the original packaging. A lamppost, 2 holiday stone chairs, a tapestry & hair restyle deed to stay looking fresh for the holidays, a couple of fruitcakes with a couple of chunks of ice to keep them preserved, and a fireworks wand to bring in the New Year! I've never owned any of these deco items and will be making them a permanent part of my set-up. Thanks again! And thank you Puck for doing a great job bringing all these people together and allowing us to revel in that holiday spirit. Merry Christmas / Happy New Year!
*Santa Puck hands out the final two gifts* 2020 Tiered Secret Santa is officially OVER! Here are a few final stats and thoughts: -There were 40 Tier 1, 31 Tier 2, and 12 Tier 3 gifts turned in and handed out. That's a total of 83 gifts! Wow! -That's a MINIMUM of 51,500,040 gold pieces worth of items that changed hands. (Actual value is WAY above this) -We had ONE Grinch (Tier 1), who was quickly replaced by @Keza ... for a nearly 100% turn in rate from people who signed up! This format was an experiment. We had some people who disliked it initially. I expected that. I tried to have something for everyone. People participated at all different tiers, to their preference and comfort level. Tier 2 and 3 had WAY more people than I expected. Tier 1 was your standard Secret Santa format and had around the amount of participants that I anticipated. We had participants from all the major active guilds I can think of (excluding FL). People ended up being far more generous than I foresaw, researching their assigned people to an extent that way frankly impressive. I've had WONDERFUL feedback from nearly everyone in this event. I'd say that overall, it was a a great success beyond my wildest imagination. Thank you so much to everyone who participated. At this point, I plan on sticking with this format again next year. I am open to any feedback or suggestions anyone may have. My hope was that this event could bring players closer together and quell some of the pixel wizard drama. I think that we did that in our own small way. Finally, Merry Puckmas to all and to all a happy scroll hunting!
Picked up my last gift and it was worth waiting for. After decoding it and turning it in to Keza Opening the tomb
First of all thank you very much @Puck for doing this. A bit late but here is my gift that I received thank you very much the research was on point and these items helped me greatly as a new player Should have done better screenshot now that I took a look at the others but It was Bone invul complet died spiked tribal mask and sandals and a load of slayer weapons that I had none before. So one again thank you very much.
Thank you to Puckness for running a great Secret Santa. I am happy with my gifts and enjoyed giving items away that I know some would use/love/cherish more than I did.
