Last year we had a very nice gift exchange:

Let's make it even better this year! For those who don't know, for years we have been exchanging gifts amongst ourselves. It works this way: everyone who wants can join, and he/she receives a gift related in some way to video game music, and also gives a gift to another person. Here are some unofficial rules which everyone should keep in mind when giving a gift:
1)Gifts can be of any value, but should be something the forum member is interested in..and, uh, related to game music Of course, no one has to break the bank, but at the same time this should not be a way to simply get rid of a couple of CDs you never listen to! I recommend you have a "wish list" which can include "rare" items as well as fairly easy-to-find items. Remember that "rare" does not necessarily translate to expensive.
2)Obviously CDs make great gifts, but games and other "things" should also be considered good (it's up to you and your giftee to decide what is acceptable).
3)Let's set the deadline date (for entering the gift exchange) as January 3rd. At which point, I will choose gifters and giftees.
4)Try to have your gift sent by the end of January. Gifter pays for shipping. You should ship your gift carefully, so it does not get damaged.
If you're interested, just reply to this email with: "YAY" or "I'm in!" or something noting your unparalleled enthusiasm.
This is my favorite thing we do as a community, so join us! The more the merrier, and of course happy holidays!!
