Come on people, join up! You know you want to.

uh, how come I’m not listed anymore :(

edit:oh I forgot to submit the form, I’m an idiot.

First I was alarmed, then upset, then realized that my shitness at paperwork is a lifelong issue. Submitterrated!

Just in time.

Great tradition.

This lists the deadline as Sunday, October 31, but today’s Sunday, October 30. So is there one more day for stragglers?

(Mainly posting this to bump it… Join the fun, folks!)

I assumed it meant October 31st lol :)

October 30? October 31? They’re both behind us – welcome to November!

Sign-ups are now closed.

We have 17 players this year and here is where they’ll ship:

More on this soon… stay tuned.

Over the course of the QT3 Secret Santa games (well, the subset of games for which I have data), we’ve seen 156 unique players. By my data set, 2009 was our biggest year, with 54 Santas. The smallest game years were 2015 and 2021 with 21 players in each year.

This year will be the smallest – and most intimate – with 17 players.

This year I’d like to honor those who have played the most number of times so far. Again this is with incomplete data so please don’t publish these results in a peer reviewed journal.

@tomchick !!

Congratulations!

And an honorable mention to @ChristienMurawski, who would be right up there with Tom, having 8 years of Santa’ing.

Love the data, and the last bit of it absolutely tugs at the heartstrings. Thanks for pulling this together, fire <3

Tom is the best at being a secret santa! :)

YOU’RE BLURTING OUT THE SECRETS!

I’ll pour the Chanti.
