I wouldn't mind some tokens or a little bit of PC but anything else is unnecessary. I'd like to give though!

Isn't it all going to be a moot point if everybody asks for tokens, cash and End/AE creatures? They're the three things everybody is going to ask for, making it just like a cash exchange, or the giving threat without the free manips.

I think it would work better and be more special if you ignored everyone's contant need for tokens and cash, instead concentrating on a particularly special colour or variation someone desires. And I mean be specific, not "Oh, and AE or End please!"

It would make it personal, rather than everyone asking for and recieving the same gifts.

OK umm you will have to explain that to me

I Think Ferox means We should be specific about it and not so general, then everyone would basically be getting the smae thing and it would be almost kind of the same of the giving thread.

What I mean is that the three most common things people will ask for are:

- Tokens
- Cash
- As many AEs and End animals as they can get.

Which translates as "Gimmie the best stuff in the game!" This is rather greedy.

If everybody asks for the same thing, then you might get people giving 25 mil and recieving 1mil, or vice versa. It becomes a dull 'give cash away and hope you recieve a similar amount in return' sort of affair. Less people are likely to participate and be generous because they wont be sure that other players will do the same. In addition, cash is just cash. It's not special, and doesn't feel like a gift.

Compare it to the situation where somebody says for their wishlist:
"I have a female Endangered fox that I bred and would dearly like an endangered male that I could own to be her mate" or "I've been looking for a male orang utang that I can dedicate to the Discworld Librarian Character" or "I have a black and white cat that I'd like to make a SBF equivalent for" then those gifts are really specific and special. People have to put effort in.

It's like the difference between recieving a book voucher or the book you've been wanting for several weeks now.
