Have fun Trick-or-Treating!

Happy Halloween!

Tis the season for gift-giving! 

This year theoldguardevents is holding a Gift Exchange! Calling all writers, artists, editors, gifmakers, fanmixers and everyone in between! Come join the festivities!

❄ How does it work? ❄

Once you sign up, you’ll be sent someone’s name, their preferences, and your task is to create something for them! Don’t worry, someone will be doing the same thing for you too! During the event you are to remain anonymous to your recipient. After the event is over however, you can reveal yourself! 

Due to two Big Bangs going on at the moment, one here and the other run by @oldguardbigbang2021​​, as well as a few other smaller events happening during December, this year’s Gift Exchange will have no minimums! If you would like to submit doodles or drabbles, feel free! All gifts are accepted!

❄ Schedule ❄

Sign ups will close November 30th! Use this form to put your name down, and list your preferences!

December 1st you’ll be emailed your recipient, then you’ll be free to create!

Check-in will be Sunday December 13th - this is when pinch-hitters will be assigned. 

Gifts will need to be submitted to this tumblr by December 24th at the latest. 

Gifts will be posted December 26-28th! 

❄ Notes ❄

Due to the range of talent we have in this fandom, you will not be able to request what type of gift you’ll be given (ie. fanfic, edit, art etc.). Whoever receives your name will see your preferences and create something for you in their medium of choice!

There are no themes for this event, you can write whatever preference you like! 

All gifts will be posted on this blog, tagging the recipient. This blog will also be tracking the tag TOGGIFT2020.

Remember to stay anonymous until the event is over!

Once you have revealed yourself after the event, you can repost your work anywhere!

I've already got a few ideas, but I thought I'd open the floor early in case any of my followers want any "personalised" treats (or, indeed, tricks 😏)

In line with the event, I won't post anything before 31 October, but feel free to drop me an ask that says something like "Trick or Treat?" leading up to the day and I'll treat it like a prompt!

❄ It begins! ❄

An email has been sent to you containing the name of your giftee! 

❄ Please let me know if you have not received an email. ❄

Remember to remain anonymous throughout the event until your gift has been given!

Go ahead and stalk your recipient to find out what they like, draw some inspiration from your immortal-muse and create!

Again, there are no minimums set for this event - if you’d like to make a fanmix, gifset, write a drabble or draw a doodle; it will be no doubt be wonderful and absolutely cherished! 

Thank you all for participating and I cannot wait to hear how you’re going at the check-in on December 13.
