@Hachi: OMG you are doing this again this year?! This was my favorite Christmas thread last year! I am so happy! Thank you for organizing this! I haven't decided if I will join yet but I am really excited to see all the art that will come from this!

@Q t e a p o n: ahh okay thank you so much! I hope this will convince more people to join
I'll give the volts back to you if we don't end up getting that many sign-ups, but I hope we do!
did you have any preferences on how I distribute the other prizes? like do you want it to be the same raffle, or a different kind of giveaway?

@Amber lynne: ME TOO it'd be great if the numbers increased from last year. I'm gonna try a lil harder to promote the event this time

@Lina: thanks for asking in advance!
your gallery thread can definitely be used as a request reference!
I looked over the rules and it's okay to use the bases for your gift. all you have to do is include that link when you submit your artwork.

@Saeyra: YEAH I'm really excited about all the art too
I hope you'll join again this year, but I understand if things are too busy on your end nonetheless I really appreciate the support!

@Hachi: Here's hoping~<3
I threw it in my post style, so MAYBE that will help? I'm not the most social, so I dunno... but... but maybe? XD

Honestly, best way to advert it might be to just hang out in a hangout thread and chat with peeps.
Best I can think of anyway. I dunno for certain. ^ ^:;;
(advertisement is NOT my forte. LOL)

    Ooh, I was hoping this would come back again this year!
    You know I'm participating again!

    Edit: I don't think editing pings will work but i don't want to double post xD
    @Hachi: I just submitted my app. c:
    Also, please don't enter me in any of the giveaway stuff. However, if you need volts for the sign-up bonus, I'm more than happy to help out!

    @Totalanimefan: Thanks! I know it's allowed in your own thread, just wasn't sure about other people's threads. xD I should probably refresh myself on that rule. XDD

@Amber lynne: DYING so I gotta be social huh... I'll try my best

@Valefor: approved, thanks for signing up! and got it, I'll leave your name out of the giveaways. and thanks for offering volts

@Totalanimefan: in real life or on here? I remember someone on another avatar site did a secret santa with items. It'd be cool if Voltra had a gifting feature for something like that!

@Wildfire: nice, looking forward to it

@Amber lynne: at some point I thought about telling people about it directly but is that pushy?? AFLKAJF I just think the event is more fun with more people also more art to look at....

@Totalanimefan: ahh that would be cool! you should totally do it

Report

Donator — Female Posted 5 years ago ( 2019/11/17 23:33:26 )



@Hachi: Oh totally.

And honestly, if you come across someone who arts and isn't already joined in, I see no issue with being like 'hey, if you're interested.....' and telling them about it.

But that's just me.
I also realise it ain't easy sometimes. ^ ^;;

But I don't think it's pushy if you just mention it. It's pushy if you KEEP telling the same person over. and over. and over. Especially if they've already expressed a lack of interest or something.

@Lina: approved, thanks!

@Totalanimefan: ahh the best advice I can give is to stay organized! I make spreadsheets to keep track of everything. Sending out assignments takes the most time, so try to give yourself enough time to do that.

From what I remember on other avatar sites, I think item secret santas usually had a price tier? So you could sign up to give/recieve gifts for the 1-5k range, 5-10k range, etc. Wishlists were also a thing, although I can imagine it'd be difficult if everyone is questing for rare items.

Voltie Posted 5 years ago ( 2019/11/19 13:43:06 )

@Totalanimefan: yeah that's definitely an issue I think maybe you just gotta have people write more general wishlists, or just get rid of the list altogether and make it a surprise. I like getting items even if they're not on my list, the surprise factor is the best part haha
And for the higher price tiers, you can have people give multiple items that add up to that price.

I think it's a cool idea so people would be interested! I remember it being pretty popular in the past.
