The Annual TCoD Gift Exchange
Every year, a mysterious building shows up at the heart of ASB central. Beneath its festively decorated eaves a tantalizing pile or wrapped presents slowly accumulates, just waiting for eager ASBers to come in and find out what other members have given them. They say that to give is better than to receive, but here you can try your hand at both!

They say that to give is better than to receive, but here you can try your hand at both!
This is the place where, through December 24th, you can give other ASB members a gift(s) of your choice. To do so, simply PM me (do NOT post it in this thread!!) the gift that you would like to give and who it's going to. I will then add it beneath that person's name on the list, along with whether it was a monetary or pokémon gift. This is in the interest of keeping all gifts a surprise until the Big Day and so that distribution is more coordinated.
If you want to send a gift to me, PM it to Kratos Aurion instead.
You may also include a short message to the recipient of the gift, which will be displayed along with the gift on the list (like a tag, basically).
Gifts will again be collected up until the 24th, and on the 25th will be "unwrapped" and distributed. Members then have until the 1st of January to claim their gifts by posting in this thread. At that point you can also post to thank people, talk about the gifts, and so on. This year gift distribution may be slightly delayed because I might not have internet access on the 25th, but I'll try to get the list up as close to that date as possible.
After January 1st, the exchange will mysteriously disappear, hopefully to find its way back the next year...
Just a few quick rules to prevent abuse:
1. If you want to give someone a pokémon, it must be a registered member of your team. You cannot "make up" a pokémon and then try to give it away. However, the pokémon given can come from either your PC or active squad.
2. You do not need to take money out of your bank account right away if you want to give money to somebody, but you will need to deduct it eventually when they come to pick it up. If at that point you've spent enough money that you don't have enough in your account to make out the gift, then you'll have to pay an additional fine (once you make some dough).
3. Do not give away more than 50% of your bank account to a single person in the form of a monetary gift.
4. If a person fails to claim their gift by the 1st of January, then the giver gets whatever it is back.
PM me with any questions; please keep this thread uncluttered until the gifts are distributed.
