If there's more interest, a list of participants could be generated. :)

From former experience what is a minimum of participants and how to obtain an even number?

Somebody will need to volunteer to organize this. I'm not in it, as I don't even celebrate Christmas. So someone who has the time will have to take charge.

bb: We don't celebrate Christmas either, and neither do many other pf-ers all over the world. Maybe we should change the name of this to something besides Secret Santa?
Cheers, Pgal :wave:
After two decades of male toys (esp. Lego and PM) in our house, it is time to build something for us women!

That is an idea, especially since it might take place in March or so. :lol: If it were not holiday-associated, I might be interested in being involved.

well.. here that kind of "game" is called "Invisible friend".... so maybe we can call this "Secret Friend project", "Secret Playmofriend Project"?

Does someone voluntier to organise it, set the rules, start it etc?

I've run one of these before and it's not too difficult. It requires the organizer to have the home addresses of all participating people, so it must be someone trustworthy. People submit their preferences and shipping info to the organizer and then it's just a matter of matching people up.

Questions to be considered:
Is this focusing on just customized figures?
Is it for adult collectors only, or can families with children participate? That means families would be matched with other families or more than one single collector and each person in the family group participating gets a klicky. The family would be expected to send out as many klickies as they take in.
