    Meronica, you need to have already had 30 posts before signing up. You can't sign up with just 20. Sorry. It's one of the listed rules.

    Oh dear, well I'm up to 30 now, but if I still can't participate I suppose I understand.

    Raina is reffering to this "You must be an active user on the forums with at least 30 substantial posts before Oct 1, 2014." from the front page.

    Edit: not meant to be mean or anything, but just what is written on the first post >_<

    It's nothing personal. It's to be sure the people who participate are active members as people will often join and leave and after the first year we had an issue with a few people who left the forum and got gifts but never sent them.

    Hey Iona, are you going to use a forwarding address? Would it just work out better if you use your future address even if it means you have to wait longer? Or maybe you can have it sent to a trusted friend and you can retrieve it later?

    how strict is the rule that you had to have posted at least 30 substantial post by October 1? I would really like to participate but I am not sure if I can.

    Question:

    Now that registration is closed, how do we know which partner do we have? Someone emails the info to us, or how does it work?

    I'm asking because it's my first year doing this, and I am not sure how it goes. I don't want to be late with my gift, since I will have for sure to mail internationally.

    We have 47 sign ups this year! I'm very excited. It's taking a while to go through everyone's credentials, but the sign ups should be sent out by email if not by tonight then tomorrow.

    I'm sorry, the 30 substantial posts has to be a hard rule. We considered doing something where community members can vouch for people to take part, but it's just too messy. However, if someone doesn't follow through with their gift, MerNetwork Secret Santa might make a post about accepting "standbys" or people who want to send a second one. That happened twice last year. The rule is just in place to minimize the disappointment for giftees whose gifts just don't arrive (it's not a 100% effective, but its one measure we can use).
