Attention all homers meatballs and superfans: it is once again time for our most sacred of traditions:
We're gonna stay on the old-school rules. The rules are listed in Phase 2, below, but to briefly spell them out:
1) sign-ups will be open for 10 days – we cannot guarantee inclusion if you sign-up after Monday, Nov. 18th
2) no accounts under 1 year old
3) accounts must be active, we won't disclose the threshold we'll be setting but we'll be looking at everyone that signs up for account activity and history
4) gifts must be sent no later than Monday December 16th – keep a receipt or something just in case, sometimes proof is needed/items are lost in shipping
5) required minimum gift value of $25 (not including shipping) – does not apply to handmade items / artwork / etc
SIGNUP
Send an email to secretditka@gmail.com
Subject: PLEASE include your username as the Subject Line. Your Reddit Name (and only your reddit name) please.
Body: a clickable link to your reddit username – please use the old.reddit format if you can remember. For instance, mine would be old.reddit.com/u/TurnerJ5 (this is just for vetting purposes).
Also include your name and shipping address in simple "'Name' – 'Address'" format, please. International participants are welcome!
Please do not include any size/preference information – if you plan on participating you can, if you wish, make a comment in THIS THREAD with your size info and your Ditka will be able to easily look it up if they need a little guidance on what gift to purchase.
Signup deadline is Monday November 18th (11/18/2024) at midnight central
PHASE 2
After you send a sign-up email we will take a look at your account and check your username against The Naughty List; a member of the mod team will message you later for clarification or notification if you are determined ineligible. All accounts participating must be minimum 1-year-old.
Assuming you come up clean we'll be in touch at the end of the period (+ a few days, maybe) with your Secret Ditka assignment.
Rules
To keep it simple gifts must be sent no later than Monday Dec. 16, minimum gift value of $25. Scammers/deadbeats are banned and shamed.
Again, I will REPLY TO YOUR EMAIL WITH YOUR MATCH INFO so keep an eye on it! No excuses, after you sign up! Let's go!
RELIEF DITKAS?
And like always – if you are one of those kind souls that is willing to be a Relief Ditka and send gifts to those that are shafted or screwed over in any way– shoot an email to us as well, and bless you.
