    Yeah but it's not really PA related so I don't know how to go about it...

    Call it a PA community thing?

    Besides, I doubt anyone would really get up in arms about this not being "general balance discussion thread #5720" :p

    Don't be simple minded. If odd numbers, 3 people or everyone, will circle-cycle their gifts. So basically...

    PersonA > PersonB > PersonC > PersonA.

    I would enter, but I would get someone a copy of Shadowgate Zojol, and they would look at me like I am stupid, so as of right now, I pass.

    I could but I'm not going to be around for a number of days because of funerals etc so you might want to keep me as a reserve rather than a definite.

    I have a lot of time commitments atm geers, I'm not confident I'd be able to commit to this or I would happily be getting much more involved :(

    Would either of you be able to assign senders/recipients if you're not participating? Otherwise I'd have to do it and then I'd know who would be my secret santa.

    You can pass gift copies around on steam? What about the issue with regional price differences on steam?

    I'm not sure that will effect anything. Everybody is just going to buy indie games and I've never heard of regional differences for those.

    True.
    So to reiterate as Santa I do:
    - collect list of people
    - pair up people randomly
    - collect steam gifts from them
    - send steam gifts to the people on the 24th

    nobody knows who got his present from who?

    I guess I can do that.

    Pretty much. Mind if I do a shameless plug on the PA forums to possibly nab a few last minute participants?

    It was tehtrekd's idea he made me do it.

    It's clearly related to the PA community isn't it?

    EDIT:
    The countdown is screwed though?
