There will be a wish list thread started once we know who's participating for sure. There, you'll be able to post a list of interests/favorites or things you'd like to get. Alternatively, you can post a link to the DVDs you have for people to get an idea for something they think you might like.
Gift certificates are acceptable, but discouraged. It's much more fun if you put thought and pick out something for your assigned recipient. If you do decide to go the gift certificate route, or order online and have it shipped to your recipient's address, a personal touch (like sending a card, in addition) would probably be a good idea.
If you are interested in participating, send an e-mail to santa@ultimatedisney.com with
1) your full name and address
2) your forum name
3) what holiday you celebrate
The deadline to sign up is <b>Friday, November 12</b>. The random assignments will occur sometime that weekend, and you should know who you'll be getting a gift for by that Saturday, November 13. Like last year, I'll be coordinating the assignments.
Regular forum members are encouraged to participate, no matter what part of the world you're from. If you're a minor ( under 18 ), you're welcome to join in the fun, but you'll have to get your parents' permission to participate.
I think we'll try to set the first week of December as the deadline to get gifts shipped out. While most who are participating are located in America, there are a few from Europe, and shipping internationally will take longer. It's always better to err on the side of "too early" than "too late."
Oh, it's worth mentioning that we'll have to set some time frame for members to do this. Last year, one member thought it would be cool to get a present and not give anything in return. It should go without saying, don't do that. I think anyone who has been a regular/semi-regular poster since August of this year or earlier is entirely welcome to join.
I've tried to cover all the bases, but I'm sure questions will arise. If so, feel free to post them here.
There's freedom to make this as fun as you'd like. Last year's was quite fun - we had 12 people. I expect we'll have a bigger turnout this year. Let's try and make this be even more fun!

I have a few questions about the Secret Santa project. 
I'm from Québec, I guess I can particiapte ?
