Ho Ho Ho.
Its that time of year again, Christmas time, a time to spend with your family, stay warm by the fire and play eve.
Make a fellow player smile this Christmas, with a mysterious present from a secret friend Christmas day.
I will be running a secret santa , for those of you who do not know of what this is, its simple, pretty much, names are put in a hat and everyone takes a name, the person whos name you get you buy them a present(they donÆt know who has whos buying whos present).
This is my version of it, and I will present this to you now.
ò People enter by eve-mailing me there char name along with Payment sent to me of 5m isk (entry fee for gift and to feed the reindeers). Within the eve-mail include a sentence like this ôSanta, ive been a good boy this year and I would like ààà.ö
ò When all names have been collected (and weÆre on a even number) I will randomly shuffle them, collecting 1 name for 1 random person(this also assures everyone gets something) I will supply hints of what they want.
ò You will be eve-mailed this persons in game name, on receiving this, you are to find a gift (with a price of 5m or less) that you feel they would enjoy.
ò You will eve-mail me the name of this item (and where its this price/what quantity) along with a personal message.
ò On me receiving this I will buy this item and put it in a safe place until Christmas eve.
ò I deliver the present for Christmas day.
All Entrys must be received by the 20th of December 2006.
This must be done with a main character(npc corp characters are of course allowed and new characters to eve I will not question your honesty)
Just as a note.
I will make little isk from this and any isk I do make will be used to go Wacko Jacko on RudolphÆs nose.
Merry Christmas:
Santa Clause/Saint Nick/Father Christmas etc etc etc

Just to make sure people get the gifts im going to buy them and contract them. Instead of people just taking a gift from someone else and not doing there part.
All excess isk will be counted and split evenly between evryone involved.
i dont need it.

Bill Gates is Santa? 
Anyway, Dailys not a scammer, just a guy who wants to do something nice for a change, hope you all put your mistrust a side and enter.

I might instead just go to Todaki School for Disabled Children and hand out all the old ammo and mods that I no longer use, to the poor sick children.

i dont need it.
So, the Christmas spirit is that nobody can be trusted to give a present out, and so you should collect everyting to make sure nobody cheats. I.E. because you don't trust anybody, and because in EVE, nobody trusts anybody, we should all trust you.
Why not just mix the names, pick them out, eve-mail them, and that's it, for no fee. Let us worry about the gift buying and gift giving?

Oh come on. Santa Claus can't scam people! That's just wrong.
I can see the headlines now...
EVE Player Commits Identity Theft of Old Saint Nick and Robs 10% of Player Base!
EVE. Where anything is possible!

If 10% of Eve falls for this, im starting my own scam. Profit!
I should add that I dont think this is a scam, but it COULD be. Im not risking it in case im wrong and it is a scam. :)
