On the outskirts of ASB Central sits a small, mysterious building. Boarded up for most of the year, it passes without notice. Only as November wears on and the air turns chill is there any sign of activity around the little building, and only upon the arrival of December, now decked out in lights and offering free hot drinks to any who stop by, does it finally welcome in visitors. Brightly-wrapped presents accumulate in its one large room as the month wears on, until at last trainers from all around gather to claim their gifts...
If you're feeling a little holiday spirit and want to spread it around, you can give other ASB members a gift(s) of your choice. To do so, simply PM me 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 below, along with what kind of gift it was. This is in the interest of keeping all gifts a surprise until the Big Day and so that distribution is more coordinated. Gifts are not limited to tangible ASB items (e.g. people have given custom sprites before); if you want to know whether or not you can make such-and-such your gift, feel free to ask.
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 be collected up until the 25th of December, when they will be distributed and "unwrapped". People 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, or whatever.
After January 1st, the exchange will close up again, hopefully to reopen the next year...
Just a couple quick rules:
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. The same goes for items or money.
2. You do not need to take money out of your bank account right away if you want to give it to somebody, but you will need to deduct it eventually when they come to pick it up. If at that point you've spent so much 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. If a person fails to claim their gift by the 1st of January, then the giver gets whatever it is back.
Because profiles are no longer a requirement, not everybody has a convenient place to stick a wishlist. Therefore, you may make a post in this thread with your wishlist if you'd like. Just keep it to one post per person, please.
