The 2012 Music Banter Secret Santa Event
 


Welcome to the second annual Music Banter Secret Santa Event! The last year was such a success, the party has to be thrown all over again. The Secret Santa event is a fun community activity, and a chance to give someone the album they didn't know they were wishing for. Or a bigass lump of coal. Your choice!

Signups will run until DECEMBER 1TH.

OBLIGATORY RULES:
  1. If you'd like to sign up, tell us you're in and post a link to your RYM, LastFM, or list your favourite albums. Sign-ups end DECEMBER 1st.
  2. Users will each be given a random Giftee who they will carefully select an album for that they believe their Giftee will enjoy. BACK UP RECOMMENDATIONS APPRECIATED, just in case the album's been heard!
  3. This album is to be PMed back to me with a download link, and the name of the person it is for no later than DECEMBER 19th.
  4. On DECEMBER 25th I will send each user their gift album, after which they can listen at their leisure, try and guess who sent it to them, and post a brief review (100-250 words) of how they enjoyed it.
  5. On January 1st I will reveal who all of the partners were and you can see how well you guessed it!

I enjoyed doing this last year, so I'm in. Last.fm and RYM links are in my signature as well. Thankfully, I won't be gone during the last week of December like last year, so I'll actually be able to review my gift.

Janszoon 11-09-2012 05:46 PM

Mediafire links are the most common these days.

Since you don't have a Last.fm or Rate Your Music link in your signature (if you have an account for either of those sites, feel free to put them in), what are your favorite albums?

Mrd00d 11-10-2012 06:41 PM
