Tis The Season to be Jolly.....This is your Secret Santa calling!
-
Welcome to the 2016 HJ2 Secret Santa!
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
And Christmas means Secret Santa time!
You can enter HJ1 or HJ2 Secret Santa's, or both (if you have an account on both games). If you will be joining both games please fill out 2 separate forms, one for each game and send your message in that game's forum to keep everything clear.
There are two groups to choose from; Under 100k and Over 100k worth of gifts. The persons name you receive will be from the same group you signed up for. Pick the group that best fits your financial status. **Keep in mind, real life cash is not required for the over 100k group; many amazing gifts are found without that added boost - don't let this deter you from entering this level. The receiving is not what is important here, it's the feeling of giving the perfect present for that special someone!**
Submit your entries anytime between now and December 3rd.
Send your entry in as an in game Private Message via the HJ forum to your game's Santa:
HJ1 entreis (OVER or Under 100ks) go to Blue Meadow Farm.
HJ2 entries (OVER or UNDER 100ks) go to EccentricEquines.
You will be notified that your entry was received.
On or before December 10th the Santa will send you a PM with the name and ID# of the person you will be giving gifts to, and that persons wish list.
Between December 23rd and 25th you can send a PM to your gift recipient and let them know what you have for them! Anonymous gifts may be sent any time after December 20th. The elf for HJ2 is going to be SandyCreek Farm (ID #441) - they can help you with relaying information you forgot to provide to your Secret Santa, or as an anonymous horse buyer, question asker, and overall fun helper for the Secret Santa's themselves once names are given out. Thanks for being my helper this year SandyCreek Farm!
********************************************************************************************
Reminders:
-Do you have any brothers, sisters, spouses or other family members that play the game? If so, tell us your family members forum name on the entry form. The ONLY exceptions made to a random draw for SS will be for family members.
-Would you be willing to be a last minute back up SS, if needed? You would not get your SS name until closer to December 23, in the event someone drops out, or is unable to participate at the last minute. Send a note to either Santa or elf to let them know you would be willing, if so.
************************************************************************************
How to give anonymous gifts (only available if you have an online payment account like PayPal):
1. Go to the Upgrades link on the menu on the left side of your game screen
2. Select the Upgrade or add ons (such as barns, pastures, boost tokens, GMT's (only available on HJ1), game cash (HBs) or gift certificates you want to buy.
3. Replace your Stable ID number (in the box provided) with the Stable ID number of the person you want to receive the gift.
4. Click add to cart.
5. You will then be directed to the payment method page (PayPal), to pay for the gift.
6. The gift will appear in the stable of the person whose ID you entered.
You can also send eggs, straws, and embryos via the Advanced Breeding Lab without the recipient knowing where they came from (be careful if they are all your own horses, as they may guess who you are!) This is where elves come in handy - you can contact the elf to help you buy horses inconspicuously and hold them until you are ready to send them.
************************************************************************************
Some gift ideas:
Rare genes, such as the Limited Edition genes like S+, Sabino 1 & 2, W3, W8, Kit m, Satin, Kit Promoter, Gulastra Plume, all the Ices, Nexus, Splash2, Splash3, Snowflake Appy, and the latest Axiom. **Please keep in mind that there are sharing restrictions in place for certain fantasy genes.**

Signature art

************************************************************************************
Last but NOT least, the most important thing:
DOUBLE CHECK YOUR ENTRY!
Be sure you list your Forum name, ID number, server number, and likes and dislikes.
For the entry, copy below this line, paste into a forum private message, fill out and send to the appropriate Santa. Your Santa will send a note back within 48 hours indicating it was received. If you do not hear back after that time, please check in via Private Message to make sure it was received.

Sweet! Last year was so much fun. :D
-
Im SO excited. I joined last year on the 21st of December. (almost my yeariversary woot woot!) So I was too late! And Im so excited to be able to participate this year. I love to give and give and give lol. I have to start brainstorming! I don't love being secretive.. so I dont think Ill be a very secret santa at the end haha
-
This is my first one. This is going to be fun.
-
Moon acre I feel the same way. I joined Dec 27th. I am excited too.
-

For anyone who has sent in a submission, please check for a response message from me. If you don't receive a message from me withing 48 hours, please resend your message. I would hate for anyone to miss out on this :)#110
-
@EE, I got your conformation PM, Thanks!
-
We can enter for both the above 100k and the below 100k, is that correct?
-
yes that's correct
-
Oh I didnt know we could enter for both!
-
I didn't realize that either
-
I don't really have any rare genes, and don't have a high bonus every day. Would artwork be acceptable? What counts as signature art?#4519
-
@Bourbon, I know some members would be very excited to have artwork such as signature art or new tattoos. :)
And a lot of members are very willing to share rare genes for much less than cost to help provide gifts your recipient wants. Tis the season to give!Thanked by 1EccentricEquines -
Bourbon, don't be discouraged to sign up, thinking you don't have enough to give. That is not the purpose of this event. We have a really supportive/giving community here, who we rely on to find those 'special' gifts for our SS (that we may not have in our own barns). Artwork is a great (and personal) gift you can give. Signature art is what is used on the bottom of your messages here on the forum. You could also create art for the horses page, which is displayed just above the horse. Tattoo art is another option. I would highly recommend you sign up (*)#110Thanked by 1ConfluenceFarms

Hear, hear, Eccentric! Bourbon, I have been saving fancy schmancy herd helpers for the past month just to sell to people super cheap to give to their 'giftees'! I just haven't made the announcement yet. I think Kerredan posted about super cheap really good horses she has available, and I will bet a nickel that folks with adoption herds will let you use adopted horses as SS gifts if you ask.
-
Yep, I got some horses with points available for Secret Santa. Here is the link to it if anyone is interested.

I will be opening my herd again to provide presents, including special and if applicable Exclusive genes. My prices on horses and straws for giftees will be very low. Giving is fun! Hope you sign up, Bourbon!
-
I will be offering special pricing on horses and straws too for the Secret Santa event. I am setting aside horses for the LE groups that will be available to the eligible stables. I will be putting them up in my chat room over the weekend as I do some of my breedings. If you are not in that chat room and want to be just message me :)
-
Don't forget that I'm on Elf Call this year to give any help that you might be needing. Just send a PM to SandyCreek Farm to make your requests or ask a question.De gustibus non disputandum. "There's no arguing about tastes."

Saw this on the Facebook page and thought I'd share, makes sense!
" DON'T change forum or game names until after the (Secret Santa) event is over. It makes sending secret santas out very difficult and confuses your givers. If you have ALREADY changed yours, please message me off of your entry and let me know how to correct it. Thanks!" -
Secret Santa is on his way to deliver lists. Hope no one is opposed to him dropping in early. Lists are a little smaller on this server, so there is no reason 'not' to hand them out now. Be sure to check your forum messages during the day, and happy shopping! Remember, if you are needing any assistance, make sure you team up with our elf!#110
-
I am feeling the buddy chat will be a great way to keep track of gifts for our SS's. It is so easy for gifted horses in our own herd to get lost in the shuffle, before the delivery date.#110
-
Great can't wait to see who I get.
-
So all names have been handed out. Please give me a jingle if you did NOT get a message with a SS name/info. Have fun guys!#110
-
I hope all has gone well for you all. Please let me know if you havn't received any gifts yet, and I will check into things. I know it can be a busy time, and players may not have been able to gift yet. I hope all my hajinc family have had very merry & blessed Christmas!#110Thanked by 1jezmynespice1
