I wish to be a Secret Santa number forty and four.

My wishlist (sorted by price for convenience only, not by order of preference):

Return of the Obra Dinn (in case it gets a discount in the following days)
Warhammer 40K Bundle
Golden Idol Mysteries: Game + DLC Bundle
DREDGE - Expansion Bundle (DLC only)
Ballistic NG + DLC 1 + DLC 2 + DLC 3 (just base game would be fine too:))
BioShock Infinite
The Excavation of Hob's Barrow
Veil of Darkness
Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within
The Longest Journey

Final hour for signups, then magic will happen and in this dark night Rudolph will help us with drawing your giftees :-)

EDIT: Signups closed! Come, Rudolph, light up this pile of entries for me, and let's draw!

So, Rudolph's lucky hooves helped me to draw your Santas. But they sure didn't help in writing all these messages to you :-D Just kidding, he was super helpful as always :)

Anyway, all messages (to both Santas and Elves) have been sent and good luck in solving riddles, which game(s) from your giftee's wishlist you should include in your gift :P

And as always, if you have any questions, drop me a PM on the chat. Thank you all for such a great participation! I can't believe we have so many Santas and Elves this year, I love it :-)

I would like to mention that in the last half hour I tried to buy the games I selected for my giftee, several times, but it doesn't seem to work. I tried 5-6 times, on both Mozilla and Chrome!

It isn't your browser, it's GOG. This is reported on the "What Did Just Break" thread by more of our Secret Santas. They say paying with Paypal works but wallet funds do not. Looks like we'll need to be patient Santas and try again later. Hopefully GOG will fix it soon as this is gifting season.

Which payment method? I didn't have any trouble yesterday night, using Paypal.

EIDT: Ninja'd.

That makes sense. I tried to buy a couple of games yesterday with wallet funds and didn't work, I though I needed to update browser and all that good stuff.

Sorry, but you tried to join us after closing the signups and it's just impossible now - all the Santas have already been paired with their giftees. My recommendation is: be active on the forums throughout the year and join us next year :)

Dear fellow Santas,

WE DID IT!
With 44 participants and 5 Secret Elves this is now the most populated Secret Santa event since 2015! \o/
2016 also had 44 participants, but 4 Secret Elves, so I count the current year a winner (on penalties xD) in that duel.

I'm very proud of all of you who joined and I hope you'll have great time spreading the gaming-sharing joy in the following days.

Ho ho ho! :)

Thank you! I completed it with my card, in order to use my gog wallet funds another time.

Got the presents for my giftee, wrapped them and send them over to Super-Santa zeffyr.

So now it's time to relax and listen to some Christmas music. Here's something from one of my favourite punk rock bands. Very sad, because it is an autobiographical story, but also with a glimpse of hope, because the singer beat his addiction and is fine today.

Wonk Unit - Christmas in a Crackhouse

Ha, good you explained it before I watched it - without that it would be just depressing. Definitely a Christmas story to tell :-)

Present/s wrapped and passed on, sporting drawings of stick figure people, stick figure cats, stick figure dogs, stick figure anythings, really. (Because I can't draw.)

PS: Buying with wallet funds worked for me a couple minutes ago.

Well i know it's over but i really don't understand how this works as i never entered secret santa due to not knowing how it works.
I know it has 3 categories but i still don't understand what exactly a secret santa does.
Is there a more detailed explanation for this?
Maybe next year i will join.
