Guidelines for SS
Okay, so here is the dirt.
1. Soon I'll be PM'ing everyone that is playing a dream/favorites sheet that they will need to complete and send back to me via PM ONLY! This is where we will get the ideas and or list of goodies to possibly get for our sisters. This list will be sent out to you all by 10 Dec. When you get a PM from me it will have your SS's dream/favorites list attached along with her name and mailing info. When you are sending your package you don't want to come right out an say - Happy Holidays, this is from Devan aka dndtaylor. You want to put some clues or mystery in your SS's gift so they can figure out who there goodies are from aka SECRET sister. For instance, maybe a post card of where you are from? Then your SS would have to do a little investigating to see who you are i.e. looking up profiles and such. Another thing fun, when I sent my package last SS game I put a fake return address and name, just to throw them off some more. Sure they could get the state and city info but still they had to search all the people who where playing. Be creative! 2. Please feel free to include in your package to your sister whatever you think they would like. The gift can be homemade or store bought. Whatever you like. With that being said I'm going to say at a MIN spend $15 and at a MAX spend $25 on your sister. Now remember if you chose to go over that is totally on you. I'll ask that you not include shipping cost in the MIN/MAX. 3. Remember this is all for fun, in the season of the Holidays. If you have signed up please follow through with the game. Last time we played someone that signed up actually never came through and we had someone not recieve anything from thier appointed SS, that isn't cool. But if you sign up and then you learn you can't play .... NO biggie just send me a PM and let me know. But when someone is expecting something and then the mail never comes ... Ouch, and double Ouch for Christmas time. 4. Whenever you recieve your gift from your SS be sure to take a picture of it and post it for us all to see. We love to see what everyone has sent each other. Also, post with your picture who you think your SS was, this is where is gets to be entertaining. Okay so I think that is about it. Please let me know if I've forgotten something okay. All I can say is the more the merrier! Hugs and nighty night.

Okay, so a little birdie named Jen has brought up a great idea. Since I would so very much like to be a part of this game Jen (jencat215) and I will slipt the names down the middle. She will match half and I will match half that way everyone can play. For example I'll assign her name to someone and she will do the same for me. Let me know if that doesn't work, okay?
Yippee I'm excited, Thanks Jen.
