LAST CHANCE!!! The draw is Thursday/Friday AM, so if you've received an invite and haven't yet responded (*coughcough* @justdairy simpsongaltarheelsemjacobskayliektzmohboiler717sjh722pumpkin) please do so ASAP! If you're interested in participating but for some random reason haven't yet contacted me about it, please PM me ASAP with your email so I can get your invite to you.
If you thought you should have received an invite, but haven't, and you weren't mentioned above, please PM me - it's possible I somehow missed a past participant.
UPDATE: There are a number of participants from last year who haven't responded yet - I'm concerned that the elfster emails did not go through for whatever reason. If you participated last year and didn't get your email, please PM me asap so that I can resend your invite. Again, if you didn't participate last year and are on the fence for this year (*coughcough* treedimensionaldavescatch), the correct answer is DOOO EEEET. PM me, and I'll get you set up.
Note: Participants from last year should receive an email from Elfster with an invite to this year's exchange. Please respond ASAP.
DETAILS: *You may respond/sign up until November 27th (Thanksgiving Day). The draw will occur on November 28th (Black Friday). *Drop-dead shipment date is December 18th. *Recipient may determine whether they want Naughty, Nice, or Both (Non-Ornament, Ornament, or Doesn't Matter) as their gift. Additionally, if you want to send someone a genitalia decor item, PLEASE ASK FIRST. Respect your recipient's wishes in this. *I set the limit at $15-ish. Please use your own best judgment for anything over or under that amount. (i.e. you get an amazing deal on the perfect gift ... you don't have to buy extra. If you find the perfect gift but it's a little over, if you're comfortable with that, I'm fine with it too. Just don't be excessively stingy or amazingly generous.) *The exchange is set to NOT give anyone the same recipient as last year. IF THERE IS SOMEONE YOU ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT as your exchangee, please let me know via PM asap. I promise not to judge this in any way, shape, or form.
If you have never participated in the exchange before but would like to, please send me a PM with your email address and REAL first/last name. I promise to respect your privacy.
Questions, comments, or smart-aleck remarks? Post below or send me a PM, depending on the level of vitriol. LOL
Naughty = I do NOT want an ornament (R- or X-rated could be yay or nay-ed by the recipient) Nice = I want the ornament, just like always. Both = I do not care what you purchase for me. (Again, R- or X-rated should be at the discretion of the recipient)
This looks like fun I've been burned before in the ornament exchange but this sounds like a great exchange to participate in!
DT, we're a pretty safe exchange. I've been coordinating for three years now (WHAT?) and I think it's gone pretty smoothly. I don't think we've had a single flake in those three years (at least I can't remember one).

OK you have officially shamed me into joining lol! JK - I have to admit that the holidays are just extra hard for me. I haven't participated in many many events since my son Jonathan's passing. So this is a BIG STEP for me.
I PM'ed you my email address.
Thanks so much Maybe this will bring a little of the holiday spirit back into my heart. I know it's still there, I just have to find it again.

Thank you so much for organizing this. I really want to participate, however, I feel lately like I'm drowning in so many other thinks that I just think I'm going to have to pass this year, even though its something fun.
ETA: and evidently my brain is working on run-on sentences too
