TWEWY Secret Santa
A Secret Santa Exchange for the TWEWY Community. Not to be confused with TWEWYSS on Tumblr and Twitter.
Guidelines
The World Ends With You Secret Santa event
operates in EST (UTC -05:00), so all stated times are in EST.
Even if your timezone is PHT (UTC +08:00), and it’s Dec. 24, the start of the gift-giving period, you still abide by EST rules. There are some who forget about time zones. It’s a blessing and a curse after all.
Keep in mind this is a Secret Santa event, so please don’t share your progress around. If you’re having trouble with the gift and need to communicate with your giftee, I’ll be your little messenger. All communications are done through the giftee’s contact preference. Communication is key if you want your gifts to be done in a timely manner.
Creating your Gifts
In the sign-up form, you will be asked to pick what content you'll create. In other words, the gift of your recipient. There is a minimum requirement for them.
Type | Minimum Requirement | Notes |
---|---|---|
Fanart* | One (1) completed art | No sketches or lineart by itself unless you're doing a manga artstyle. |
Fanfiction | One thousand five hundred (1500) words | Can be a one shot or multi-chapters |
Edit/Graphics | One (1) edit/graphic | |
Music | Forty-five (45) seconds | |
Video | Three (3) seconds | In case your recipient requests for something shitpost-y. |
Other | Depends on the content |
*If you’re drawing it traditionally, be sure that it’s scanned cleanly. Alternatively, take a picture of your art. Please don’t draw your traditional art on lined paper.
Procedure
The process is simple.Fill in the sign-up form, and you’ll receive a confirmation email from me and a Discord invite to the server to hang out. Joining the server is optional since announcements will also be made on Tumblr and Twitter, so don’t worry about it.When the sign-up process is done, the organizers will look over the Players’ wishlist and preferences to ensure you—the Player—can create the gift without feeling uncomfortable.Check-ins are how the organizers know the process is running smoothly and gauge the Player’s process if they have reached their expected minimum requirement. These are mandatory.
Check-Ins
How does the check-in process work?An announcement will be made through Discord, Tumblr, and Twitter,
followed by an email. You can choose to reply to your check-ins listed in the email.You are given a three-day (3) grace period to send in your progress. Failure to respond will receive a strike and be on the verge of being removed from the event—you’ll be notified through email. Miss two check-ins, you are removed from the event, and you’ll have to sign-up for next year.If you missed your first check-in but responded to the second check-in, your strike will be lifted.Communication is key.
