🎁 How It Works

1. Pick a division that fits your gift budget.

   • Need to switch divisions? Message me in-game Stable ID #72343 or The Joker #227034 or Angels #256628.

2. You’ll be matched with a “Secret Santa” and receive a gift within the division’s value range.

3. Register on Elfster to participate. Returning elves may need to delete last year’s account and create a new one.

4. Sign up by the deadline — gifts can only be sent after names are drawn on Dec 20

5. Check Elfster after Dec 20 to see who you’ve drawn. This info is not shared in-game.

6. If you haven’t received a gift by Dec 27, PM me or one of the other partners in-game (#72343, #227034, #256628).

7. If still missing a gift by Dec 30, either I or one of my helpers will send you one.

📝 Signing Up

• Use your Stable Name in the First Name slot and your Stable ID in the Last Name slot.

• Click your chosen division link in the main thread.

• Do not use real-life info; use a fantasy address if prompted.

• You must use your Stable Name and ID# — otherwise, Elfster will send reminders, and you may be removed.

🎄 Who Can Join?

• Open to all HEE members!

• No premium membership required, but indicate it on Elfster so gifters know what to send (e.g., straws).

🎁 Stable Rules

• Only one entry per tier per stable.

• You can enter more than one stable, however you are only allowed to enter one per tier to prevent getting yourself as a Santa!

💰 Gift Values

• Divisions range from 20k to 250k+.

• Send gifts within your division’s value range — midpoint is a good guideline.

• No real money needed unless gifting an upgrade, money fairy visit, etc.

• Gifts can exceed your division’s minimum, but please remember just because you may be able to afford more does not mean your santa can so only gift what you are comfortable possibly recieving!

🎁 Wishlists

• Wishes are guidelines, not requirements.

• Popular ideas:

  • Artwork

  • Breeding stock

  • Upgrades

  • Straws or free breedings

  • Show geldings

  • Items (maps, glass, etc.)

  • EBs

• Please be fair — only wish for items within your division’s budget and what you could give in return.

🐴 Valuing Gifts

• Horses: Check pedigree, progeny, and use the Search Horses tool to find average prices.

• Items/Tokens: Search Member Items or the game Store for average values. Gifts may need to be multiple items to meet division value.

• If you believe a gift doesn’t meet the value, PM me in-game (#72343 or #227034).

🎅 Tips for a Merry Holiday

• Check Elfster regularly!

• Keep your wishes reasonable and festive.

• Remember, the magic of Secret Santa is spreading cheer, not just receiving gifts.
