I'm in the same boat. Kinda giving up hope as time goes by though.

Original SS didn't send anything. Backup SS didn't send anything either, even though he reached out to ask a clarifying question. So...

I never heard from a backup SS, so I'm guessing they weren't able to cover all the ppl that didn't receive which is okay but sad

Who hurt him? Who does this? It's horrid, not sending a secret santa.

Wish he was tapping his face fingers.

I signed up to be a backup SS and mailed mine out in February. Why sign up as a backup if you're not going to follow through?

I know the feeling @OP. At least I was able to be a back up SS and make someone's day :)

same boat @op shit the way people do this. scummy thing to do. i spent far too long figuring out what to get for mine too

9 years ago | Likes 30 Dislikes 1

Same thing here. I even shipped internationally

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Agreed. The way things are to be handled this coming Christmas will be rather different and far far better than prev. years.

Same boat here too. I was impressed, though,at how well @MartynMage managed the whole affair. I had fun getting gifts for my person.

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Me too! I signed up hoping for a little connect seeing as I wouldn't be getting anything from family. And turned out empty handed. 1/2

The sting was greater than anticipated 2/2

2015 secret santa never came. I find it pretty sad when people sign up for these things but have no intentions of joining in.

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

I don't understand why people sign up to be back up SSs and then don't follow through.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Still waiting on my gift. Love it when I don't get a response on the email or messages.

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Not that it would deter me from entering again, but I'd like to know the numbers of what percentage of imgurians that sign up get a gift

9 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

All available stats are on the giftagiraffe site at any time.

9 years ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 0

What more statistics would be worth publishing?

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

For anyone reading 82% of participating Imgurians received during the initial time period, which honestly is pretty great

This is why I refuse to ever take place in an online secret santa.

Honestly, redditgifts seems pretty well put together. Even if you don't get a gift, you're entered into rematching. If you still get no 1/

gift they make sure to pair you with someone known to give good gifts next go around. And the more you do it, the more credits you build 2/

up that let you enter in higher tiers of gifting, so that you're only gifting with others who you know have done it a few times already.

I didn't receive, and I convinced myself I was getting nothing, but it was so amazing making someone else happy on Christmas

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

I too am a non receiver. I got an amazing gift the year before though.
