Hi! Just checking to see if you got my email

I did!!😁

[seasons-beatings]

Would you like us to notify you when we submit so you know if something should have come through?

Not required, but definitely helpful!😄

[seasons-beatings]

just checking in to make sure you got my email

Got it!!

[seasons-beatings]

Hi! I would like to ask if you were able to receive the email in which I sent my gift for the exchange ^^

I did get it, thank you!!

Wait, I thought the deadline to send stuff in was the 25th, and they'll be sent out the 31st. Why does it being 3 days away from the 27th matter? Is that like the "late submission" deadline or something?

The deadline was pushed back a few days since I was late with the asks- December 27 is the cutoff day for getting gifts sent in. Those extra three days before the 30th are for my standby team in case I need to call them in. Gifts will probably be sent out the 30th or 31st, depending on which day is busiest for me!

The three days is just me letting people know they’ve got three more days to finish their gifts!

Hey all!

Just letting everyone know- as of right now, we have three days left until December 27, and I’m currently still missing 27 gifts. I’m not immensely worried, I know I like to push deadlines until the very last second. But I do want to make sure everything goes smoothly.

If you haven’t sent me your gift yet, I’ll probably pop into your messages at some point today to just check in, see how it’s going, offer assistance. This is also when I might need a few extra hands, so standby team- be on standby!

just checking…did you get my email? The wi-fi was weird when I sent it in.

It doesn’t look like I have it- would you mind sending it again?

[seasons-beatings]

Question: if we have a fully completed gift ready and send it in on the 25th, could we add something to that gift in the following days? (For example, sending in a story on the 25th and then a drawing to go with it a few days later)

Totally ok if that gets too complicated, just wondering :)

Of course!! You can always send in more!

Quick announcement- I’m once again dancing in The Nutcracker, so for December 20-22 I probably won’t be around answering questions and so on. Sorry for any delay!

[seasons-beatings]

What format would you prefer writing to be sent in? Like as a PDF, copy-pasted straight into the email, or something else?

If you can get it in some form of document- Google Docs, Word, Evernote, whatever you use- that would be amazing, but if not, copy-pasted is just fine!

[seasons-beatings]

Twelve days left to submit your gifts! How’s everyone doing? I’m always available to help if need be!

HI!! just wanted to say thanks so much for putting together and running this event!!! i did it last year and it was super fun and i’m so excited about this years!! :D thanks again and i hope u have a good day/night!!

You’re so welcome!! I have a blast running this thing😄

[seasons-beatings]

Hiya!! Hope this is okay to do over anon asks, I may have a slight problem: I only have the info for my characters stored on a website that requires an account to view (the website is what I linked in the form). Could this be a problem for my gifter and if so should I quickly find somewhere else, rewrite their bios there, and then dm you the new links? So sorry about this, I’m sure running this is already stressful enough 😓

Hi! Sorry about the delayed answer!

If your gifter has an issue with that, they’ll probably message me and I’ll fix it. But if you want to find somewhere else and DM me, I’ll send them the new links just in case!

[seasons-beatings]

Hello! Thank you for running your awesome event again, I had lots of fun last year. However I'm a little rusty; are we supposed to submit our gift to you to publish all at once? If so, HOW do we submit them to you again? Or do we publish it on our own blog? Thank you!

Hi!!

So you’ll email me your gift at saintwhumpolas@gmail.com. From there, I’ll take over and publish all the gifts at the end of December. But once the gifts are posted, if you’d like to repost your gift on your own blog, that’s of course welcome!

[seasons-beatings]

I’ve gotten a question that raises an interesting point! I had someone ask if they could create a gift using their gift person’s whumpees and their own whumpers. I am fine with that, and I think it could be fun! Just make sure you ask me first if you’d like to do that- I’ll check in with your gift person and make sure that’s okay, some people might want their gift just with their own characters (and that’s fine too!)

[seasons-beatings]

We have a Discord!!

And for the first time, I’m tagging all of this year’s participants!

@all-the-gory-details @i-eat-worlds @randowhump @voidwhump @watermelons-dont-grow-on-trees @lights-out-knives-out @where-is-my-whump @shshshquietnow @string-of-broken-hearts @melpomenelamusa @what-if-i-just-did @wollemi-whump @teine-mallaichte @write-kin @roxenworks @whumpinthepot @pigeonwhumps @cupcakes-and-pain @todaywasamaritale @gallegher @appy-polly-loggies @thecareandkeepingofwhumpees @hurtwithallthecomfort @inhurtandincomfort @ninjasylveon @kingxlinkwrites @whumpeewoes @whumperwithwings @thatsgonnaleaveamark @loonybun @southstardrabbles @newbornwhumperfly @whumpy-wyrms @zoeywhumps @tictac-murder-spaghetti @lettherebepain @whumble-beeee @painsandconfusion @keeper-of-all-the-random-things

Some things about the Discord:

It’s not mandatory to join! The event will still take place here on Tumblr- the Discord is just to hang out and another way to access me if you need to!

If you’re not participating in the event this year, feel free to join the server anyway!

I won’t be keeping it going year-round- unfortunately I’ll be very busy in the spring and running a Discord server permanently is just beyond my bandwidth right now. I’ll probably turn the server to read-only sometime in January, and resurrect it when I run the event again!

[seasons-beatings]

At this point, everyone should have received their ask! If you have NOT gotten an ask, please let me know!!
