Chicken Smoothie Secret Santas are members of the great and vast CS community who build up a collection of gifts for another user for Christmas.

Chicken Smoothie Secret Santas was an old idea created by Lyu back in 2011, almost six years ago! Many CS users had a fantastic Christmas due to the number of generous users participating in the event. Since then, the event has changed and grown, but the festive, giving spirit is still there and stronger than ever.

  • 2018 Chicken Smoothie Secret Santas is now up and open!
  • Updated the FAQ! Seems like a bunch of people aren't sure how to put in their profile link/username and I've gotten quite a few questions asking when registration will close, so I added two new FAQ questions to help answer those questions.
  • Registration will end at 11:59 PM GMT (CS Time) on Friday, November 30th. Click here for the current time in GMT (CS Time).
  • Registration is now closed! I'll be waiting a little longer for some people to fix their incomplete forms before I finalize things and assign everyone. So if anyone still hasn't filled out a membership form but still wants to participate, do it ASAP! I'll post another announcement once everything is finalized and absolutely no more forms will be accepted.
  • Everything has been finalized and forms will no longer be accepted! Everyone should receive a PM from either me or one of the Little Elves with everything you need to know, including who you're assigned to gift, within 24 hours. We all live in different time zones, so some people may get their PM's later than others. Bear with us, guys! We've got 427 PMs to send out!
  • All assignment PMs have been sent out! Everyone should have gotten a PM from either me or one of the Little Elves with their assigned person. If for some reason you didn't receive a PM from one of us, PM me and let me know.
  • This weekend, we'll be sending out PM's to everyone to check up on everyone's progress. Please reply to this PM and let us know how you're doing!
  • Send your gifts now! Merry Christmas, everyone! It's now officially Christmas on Chicken Smoothie! We'll be sending out a PM to everyone, reminding you guys to send your gifts out now.
  • I've already sent out the final mass PM, so everyone, please reply asap! This way I can finalize things and make sure everyone gave and got a gift.

  • Don't say who you are a Secret Santa for. Or else why would it be called Secret Santa?
  • Don't harass or be rude to other Santas. Eg: "Your pets for the person are absolute rubbish! Haha!"
  • Don't spam this thread. Keep all discussion on-topic.
  • Don't ask for donations. This defeats the purpose.
  • Do PM me questions. I may use some for the FAQ.
  • Do try your hardest. You should give this your all!

What is Secret Santa?

Secret Santa is a popular holiday game/event where everyone gets to be a Secret Santa and is randomly assigned someone else to gift. You aren't allowed to tell anyone who you are gifting and you won't know who is going to gift you. The whole point of this game/event is to collect gifts for the person that you are a Secret Santa for and give it to them on Christmas.

How do I participate?

Just fill out the membership form completely and post it on this thread.

How do I put my profile link and username in the form?

Here's a link to a little mini tutorial.

Who do I gift?

Once registration closes, you will receive a Secret Santa and have someone to be a Secret Santa for. The pairings will be assigned randomly from the list of Secret Santas in the Secret Santa Army so that it really is secret and you really won't know who you're assigned to gift. This also ensures that everyone who participates will get a gift. I'll be sending everyone PM's with everything you need to know, including who you're assigned to gift, the day after registration closes.

When does registration close?

It depends on the number of people that have signed up so far. Once a deadline has been decided, I'll make an announcement and it will be posted in the thread's News section and title. Registration will definitely end sometime in mid/late November, though. I give about a month for Secret Santas to collect gifts for their assigned person.

When do I gift?

On the 25th of December. Or if you know you can't get online that day, tell me in advance and you'll gift on the 24th of December.

How do I get the pets?

You get the pets just like how you get any other pets: trade, adopt, etc.!

How much do we give them?

It's up to you. Go crazy!

Does the gift have to be on their wishlist?

It doesn't have to be, however, it's highly encouraged. People are more likely to keep what they get if it's on their wishlist. You could, however, gift tons of hoard pets which a lot of people avoid putting on their wishlist. Or if they're interested in getting art, you could gift them that. But it's completely understandable if it's too hard. Just try your very best to make them happy!

Do I have to gift a dream pet?

No you don't. Sometimes these are really expensive, so I wouldn't worry that much about it! You could definitely try, though.

Can I gift items, art, characters, etc.?

Yes you can. But try to see if they'll like getting art, characters, etc. first!

What if I don't have any wishlist pets/items on their wishlist or I don't know what they want?

You can PM me to ask them what they want, and I'll ask them for you. That way, you don't have to reveal your identity. You can also check the posts on this thread, since some people have written "letters to Santa" and included what they want for Christmas.

When the time comes, what do I say in my message?

Something along the lines of... "Hi ____, I was a Secret Santa this Christmas, and this time I was yours! I hope you enjoy my gift!"
Personalize it, make them feel awesome, and try to make their day!

Can I be a Secret Santa for more than one user?

Because of the way Secret Santa will work, technically no. However, don't be afraid to send out gifts in the mean time. It's up to you how many people you want to gift!

What happens if someone that joins as a Secret Santa doesn't give a gift?

I will contact them personally, asking about their situation and asking them to immediately gift whoever they were assigned to. It may just be because they forgot to gift it at the right time, they were busy, or some other reason. However, if they knowingly didn't gift the person they were assigned to, refuses to give a gift, and just takes the gift that was gifted to them by their Secret Santa, they will be banned from ever participating again. I will personally gift whoever doesn't get a gift.

Why are you starting so early? It's only November!

I'm starting early to gather up Secret Santas so we can assign the Secret Santas early and give everyone enough time to start collecting to gift in December. It's to make time for preparation.

Are Secret Santas auto-accepted, or...?

Yes, anyone can join as long as you completely fill out and post a form.

Why is this not in the Free Adoptions?

The Free Adoptions forum is where one person gives gifts and the Secret Santa event is where multiple players give gifts, so the thread wouldn't belong there. Because this is an event based around a group of players, the Clubs and armies forum seems suitable.
