soooooo doing this

Also yeah adult requests are allowed, they're just gonna be posted in adultfanfic/art afterwards.

I hope my email went through this time ahhhhhh

If you can make adult request could it be possible to ask to NOT receive an adult request? I'd like to do this but I'm not too comfortable with drawing the manwangs and then posting them on the internet for others to see.

Also, when requesting adult stuff, guys: ask for a worksafe request alongside it in case the artist/writer who receives isn't comfortable with wangs or boobs or whatever.

I am all over this.

You bet I'm in!

Sent! Awesome. Excitement abounds.

Submitted this morning. I am excite.

Submitted! I can't wait to see all the wonderful drawings and fanfics and Gmods. :D

Hmm, are G-Mods allowed? I would think so, right?

I don't think Gmods would be allowed unless specifically asked for? Unsure on this matter. What does everyone think?

Perhaps if you ask for a gmod you should be allowed to get one? Otherwise fic/art only.

>>869
agreed! also, I'm volunteering to fill in for any missing artists :>

Oman, oman. Can't wait to get started.

Doin' it! I am totally excite as well.

Takin' part, why not.

I think it'd be easier for the project-runners if we all put in add-ons or restrictions to our requests / what we're able to do.

Maybe, if applicable, everyone could add a little section on the bottom for extra things you're willing to accept / contribute (e.g. if you've got gmod skills), and extra things you're not willing to accept / contribute (e.g. if you don't do smut / explicitly don't want adult-oriented things in return).

It might make organization flow a lot smoother.

No GMods. Come on, how many of you would feel gypped if your request was fulfilled with a GMod?

>>848
Aw ffff. I would have added that my request could be adult if I had seen this (would be preffered actually).

Is there any chance that can be added onto the end of mine? Sorry to bother.

I love secret santa

I missed last year, all sent in for this year! I love picture prompts actually so I'm excite for what I'll get to draw.

Sent an email, hope it went through. I am excite.

I'm not an amazing author but I think I'll try this.

fffuuuuu Secret Santas are so fun I want in

Maybe with the cut off date being kinda early, there is a feasible way for doing this, but can we make a plan for folks who bail on the requests or simply don't have the time to complete them?
Last year I made 2 gifts and never received my own.
Sux bro.

>>959
The plan for the bailers/no time currently is for those who've volunteered to step in to do some extra drawings. If there is not enough to fullfil them exi and I can step in, we don't have our own requests in this, but we're fine with doing a few who don't have their requests filled.
The amount of time between the cutoff date and the posting is also to account for those who have /almost/ finished and sent an e-mail saying that. But that means the image/story must be finished the day before

I am very excite. I can't wait to get started.

\o/ all signed up and ready to write some fics
let's hope i actually get something this year

Goddamn I am all over this like cheese on rice.

okay definitely no gmods then, also 45 people have now signed up :D!

E-mail sent. My creative juices are simmering in the pot and are ready to boil over with creativity!

I am willing to bet a slice of cheesecake that we will not have enough drawfags. And I love cheesecake.

>>1093
Not the cheesecake!!

>>1093
I don't know about other drawfags, but at least i could take an extra request or even two if there really aren't enough. But i'm not sure i could make it in time for dec 20.

Forgot to add this to email, but I am totaly willing to take on up to 2 extra requests.

I think I added this to my email but I don't quite remember. I'd also be happy to take on extra requests if people bail.

want to join in on this but...can't think of a good request :/
are the last years posts up anywhere?

Sent my email a week ago I think. I don't mind helping with one other request though than just the first per mine.

Hopefully if I didn't end up deleting the reply to my email :s

>>1296
Yea, are we suppose to get a reply email? Cus I sent mine in.. November and didn't get anything back yet.

I think we'll get our replies in our e-mails once the applications are closed, so, Friday afternoon? Keep an eye out folks, I'm sure they're getting everything ready for names to be swapped out.

I'm so excited even though I'm going to work my ass off on my request.
NO TEENY LITTLE TWO PAGE DRABBLES FOR ME. Aiming for at least six pages. Hope it's something violent.

So, when are assignments getting sent out?

Has anyone gotten their assignments? I just want to make sure I just somehow didn't get included.

>>1345
I didn't yet.

>>1345
I didn't yet.

>>1345

I don't think they're being sent yet. At least, I haven't got mine.

>>1350

The 20th is cutting it close for a deadline if they're not sent soon...

>>1353
Ooh. I got one. Excitement! I'm grabbing my sketchbook!

Got mine! Off to do some research!

Oman, got mine.
Time to make this as badass as I possibly can.

All except one, because of clarifcation needed has been sent out at the moment.

Yesss got mine. It's perfect for me, this kind of feels like a gift for myself. o u o

Oh this is wonderful, I hope whoever sent this likes it because I am going to spend the longest time on this.

Holy crap, can this prompt be any more perfect?

I am going to have fun with this.

I like the request I got. I hope I will do it justice and the recipent will be pleased!

Oh man, mine is going to be fun...also it's going to be my first time doing something porny so I hope it turns out okay. Haha.

Yay! These are already fun!

Just got mine. Whoopwhoopwhoopwhoop

Oh, interesting request. Not something I'm use to but I shall do my best! Breaking new grounds now! Let the fun begin!

Finally got mine! And oh boy, I looooove it, hnngh.

Ah gad. This one is going to be hard for me.

If you've not recieved a request by now, I just don't have your e-mail. Try again?

Just emailed in my finished drawing! I took some liberties on the request but I hope they like the picture. : ) Too much fun!

FFFFFFFFNO WRITER'S BLOCK GO AWAY I DO NOT WANT YOU RIGHT NOW. Come back in five days ffffffu.

>>1493
I know what you mean, my prompt was just crazy weird for me so I've been kind of ffffffuuuuuuu the last couple days. It's the pressure, man. But inspiration PUNCHED ME IN THE FUCKING FACE a few hours ago and it's actually turning out good =D

I hope my Santee likes it that's always the worst part, waiting to hear what they think

>>1500
I got a prompt that left a lot to my discretion, so since it wasn't stated that it had to be happy, it's gonna be hella sad.
Hope that's cool. c:

i hope my giftee forgives the terribad perspective i used

what is wrong with me

...I hope my giftee doesn't mind me completely drabbleifying his thing.
School is crushing my writing time. Why is school doing this now?

I'm gonna need a beta for my fic, but I guess the beta thread disappeared since the forums got wiped?

I want to get this thing looked over but I don't want to actually get my santee by some crazy stroke of luck. What should I do?

>>1524
Well since you're still anon you could probably just say at the beginning the prompt.(I mean, it's no spoiler that someone's going to be filling their request called 'anon anyways) And hopefully the person who owns that prompt won't continue to read?
Meanwhile mine's pencilled... lots of work to do.

Well, I'd rather not post it on the boards. If anyone wants to beta they can email me. The pairing is Demo/Sniper. If you requested that you need not apply.

>>1528
I'll pick that up. That's email to watch for up in the email field.

Sent mine out. LOTS of fun to draw, put a good 6+ hours into it, haha, hopefully it is enjoyed.

Sent mine lol First attempt at slash EVER so i hope it is received well

GAH. TypetypetypetypityTYPE. Where is my brain going!? Stoppit!

There we go. Sent it in and an impressive amount of stress was just lifted. The fuck? Apologies for it being a drabblerush. Gotta go write an essay now.

I am SO SORRY, giftee. Spy's head is the biggest thing on the page, and he's not even looking at you (out of the page). I still hope you like it though.

Sent mine in earlier this afternoon. Ran into kind of a block with the coloring (and a timecrunch) so I hope you don't mind that it's mostly uncolored ; n ;

Sent mine in, oh yeah. Not 100% happy with the line art, but damn I am proud of the coloring I AM A FAGGOT HUMP MY RUMP

>>1593
wut. I don't even.

fucking with my posts. That's mature.

>>1594
it does that when you type el oh el :P I figured that out recently too

I might be a little late posting mine. I got a late start because my stepdad decided to wait until just now to start putting up decorations.

>>1596
apperently there's more triggers than that, concidering I can't recall the last time I typed it. Good to know though, thanks!

I'm excite for the reveal! Just sent my finished piece in tonight. Happy Holidays all!

FFFFFFFFffffffffffffuuu--

I might not make it in time. Shit. Sketch is taking me forever.

Aaaa- Sorry, gonna be a bit late too. I hyperextended one of my main fingers on my drawing hand. But by Zeus I'll get it in before Christmas!

Got a scare when I initially sent it in on Friday and double-checked tonight to find it hadn't gone through. Bleh. Hopefully it went off without a hitch this time.

And I have to say, out of all the requests I thought I would receive in this I was not at all expecting what I got. It was definitely a challenge for me, but I enjoyed writing it and I hope the person who requested it enjoys it. <3

Oh yeah, mailed mine off yesterday. Hope it's not too bad and the giftee likes, I've been too dang busy to do much more than what I did.

Try to get them in for today folks! I can accept there's gonna be a few stragglers, but if you can't get it in within the next day or so I'll need to know so we can ask a helper.

Mine will be in before the end of tomorrow, definitely. Just finishing up this 'Finals Week' nonsense and it'll be good to go.

Finals have been consistently kicking my ass over the last week. I'm done now and I have time to write something, but I don't know that I'll be able to finish by tonight. I should have something in by tomorrow evening at the latest.

>>1607
I'm not sure if you already have helpers picked out, but if you needed a little extra help I'm sure I could whip something up. Just email me if the need arises. =)

WHEEOO, NOTHING LIKE PROCRASTINATION

It's done and sent. I hope the requester likes it. I think they will. I had fun writing it.

I'm so sorry! I have a research paper due tomorrow so I had to work nonstop on it. My picture is almost done, and I'll definitely get in by tomorrow, no matter what!

I hate to add to the growing pile of unfinished gifts, but my computer won't hold a charge long enough for me to work on it. I'll finish by the end of the 21st for sure.

I should be done with my own in a couple of hours or at most during the day on the 21th. Sorry for the short delay.

I am going to need just a leeeetle more time as well, since I am predictably terrible at deadlines!

I should have my prompt done either by midnight, Pacific time, or mid-day tomorrow. I apologize for the tardiness, I seemed to be writing more than I thought I would.

>>1637
Myself as well. Sorry for the inconvenience :V

My apologies of adding on to unfinished gifts as well, but tomorrow evening, I should be able to get mine in.

I'm adding last touch-ups on mine! Sorry for the delay, but I passed out yesterday after another allnighter of commissions and diploma, and was unable to finish the request on time. :(

Adding to the list of apologizes, but between the gift trying to be worked on and trying to balance real life issues, I'm just glad I was able to finish off over night. Maybe next year we can have a two week work period just in case of unexpected real life issues?

>>1652
The main problem was we organised it pretty late this year. Next year perhaps the sign-ups start mid november and end near the beginning of december? That way you can easily get two weeks to do things.

>>1653
Yea, I totally forgot the week of my finals were last week. Many a sleepless night has ended.

I shall also add to the list of apologies, but I'm glad I at least got it done and hope the recipient will be happy with it!

This anon got hers done. It wasn't easy, but I HOPE it's at least compelling.

Late to the party but hopefully my contribution won't disappoint!

Mine is finished and sent in!

Hope it's not too late.

Huzzah! I just sent my entry in. Feels good to have finally finished. I just hope my giftee likes it.

(Mostly) Finished! I hope my Santee isn't horribly disappointed with it.

Just sent the email. Hopefully nothing went wrong in the processes of sending it... Added something extra into the gift, hope the giftee doesn't mind. Oh, geez, I'm exhausted...

okay helpers have been notified for the unfilled requests

>>1675
I hope that mine went through! :D

oh my god i'm a terrible person- I SENT AN E-MAIL BACK I'M SORRY.

i worked really hard on my gift but i couldn't find this thread and i couldn't remember the due date and i'm sorry! ):

i'm sorry to the helper who got assigned my person's request, i'm still sending mine in tonight, and i guess my person will get two things :c

i feel so bad.

Ah shit - sorry to the helper as well.
Still sending mine in, gah sorry!

>>i'm sorry to the helper who got assigned my person's request, i'm still sending mine in

Ditto, I think

Much more difficult than expected.

I feel bad about it, I'm sorry helper.

I feel like the biggest king douche, but hey I at least turned mine in, even if it's late.

Sorry to the helper if you already started on my request. :<

Sent my helper request in. I hope the receiver likes it! These are fun!

Dang, I can't wait til all the art and fanfics are up... I'm like a little kid waiting for Christmas!

Submitted mine. Psh, me- late?! NONSENSE.

Completion: 3/5ths
Could do with fixing up: 3/5ths
Deadline: Dec 20th

Time management? What's that?

I'm so excited for tomorrow! I hope everyone gets a gift this year!

I bloody hate it when I think of something I want more than what I requested once it's way too late. Oh well. Some happy gore is always nice.

Anyone absolutely terrified to bits that their santee will think of their gift? Because I know I am.

>>1736

Solution: assure yourself that they'll think it's horrid and that you're a terrible person. If your preconceptions are dashed, it will be a good thing.

There are five of you left to hand in secret santas, we will be submitting the thread soon, please have your work in ASAP. Seriously mang otherewise I'll have to call on some helpers to do a complete rush job and you've said you'll do it.

OH GOD I CANT WAIT OR PUNCTUATE

I am terribly excited about this.

>>1736
I am in the exact same boat.

>>1751
Thirded. I do hope they like it--I even tried incorporating both of their suggestions into one piece and I'm keeping my fingers crossed in wishing it's what they had in mind.

>>1751

Ditto.

Had to rush quite a bit, as I was very late due in part to thinking I had been replaced by a helper already which I don't think is the case. Anyways. Yeah.

HFFFFFFFFFF oh boy oh boy, cannot wait. If you still need helpers I can whip up a drabble or something really quick if it helps the stuff get posted.

are we STILL waiting on 5 people? It'll be New Years before the threads go up.

>>1752
Fourth'd.
My look on receiving my gift is the fact that it's the thought that counts. Someone put their time and effort into it. Plus you get a cool piece of art/fan-fic made just for you (And it's free too)!

I at least hope the stuff is up by tonight. Still can't wait! Come on you five people, Move that gear up!

Is anyone else extremely paranoid that they're one of the five people whose requests aren't getting filled because the person who got them thought it was stupid and now thinks less of me tor requesting it

Christmas is almost over in most places, if they haven't finished at this point I think it's safe to say that they aren't going to do it.

>>1762

Or that it's karmic retribution for making a shitty gift. :\

>>1762
Don't worry, me too.

If you're going to post the gift thread on New Years, you could send me the requests so I could try and do a rush job.

Guys, the thread opened up over in /dis/.

>>1768
Why did I become scared $hitless all of a sudden...
and extremely excited...

can we lock the thread now? I think the SS is done and nothing of value is in this thread.
