FAQ

What can I gift?
We are looking for gifts of fanart or fanfiction. If there's another sort of online gift you'd like to make, please message us first so that we can decide if the medium is suitable or not.
What information do I get to work with?
You'll be sent at the very least your giftees name, the account they've signed up with, their likes and dislikes and whether they're okay with NSFW gifts. You'll receive as much detail as they've given in their sign-up. If you'd like more information, let us know ASAP and we can ask them on your behalf.
I signed up but can't make/finish my gift on time. Can I withdraw/quit?
Of course! But please let us know ASAP if you think you can’t manage! This is so pinch-hitters have time to complete a gift and someone isn’t left without one. If you only need a few more days to finish, and are certain you'll be done by then, ask us for an extension instead.
What do I do after finishing my gift?
Let us know you're done but don't post it publicly until the gifting period! begins. When that time comes, post them with the hashtag #touransecretsanta2023 so we can show them off! If you'd prefer to remain anonymous, send us your gift via DM or Discord so that we can post it for you.
Can I create/request NSFW content?
You are free to request whatever you want but do not create something NSFW unless your giftee has stated that they're happy to receive it. When posting NSFW gifts to the hashtag, please provide a link to the content so that the hashtag itself remains suitable for everyone to browse.
I don’t think I got a gift, what do I do?
Message us so we can look into it for you! Please do this ASAP. Queries received once we've gone back into hibernation will not be pursued.
I want to pinch-hit but not sign up as a normal participant. Is that okay?
Absolutely, you legend. Just send us a DM.
I no longer use Twitter, can I still take part?
We don't want you to miss out just because the site is now on fire. You can still sign up via Discord, join the server and DM the mod account there. We might get our minions to advertise on other sites too this year (Tumblr, Dreamwidth, etc), and if we do, the post will have details on how else to take part.
Who are the mods?
We have six Santa hands and a whole lot of love. Mod 1 is the ultimate mastermind. Mod 2 is the matchup wizard. Mod 3 is the IT genius. We spend most of the exchange period screaming incoherently from the shadows of anonymity and then fall into a deep sleep for the rest of the year.
