I am clearly NOT a genius at Secret Santa. But if you look at the original "questionnaire" VS peoples responses, a lot of people omitted certain questions for whatever reason.Originally Posted by catbehaviors
Do you have to answer every question? Just wondering.
Now grant you crazy me answered all of them
But to answer your question, no you do NOT need to answer all the questions. At least that is what I suspect
But someone who knows more about Secret Santa sure should/could answer the question better
It's very helpful for your SS to know your interests, etc. I think that's why the list of questions is so long.Originally Posted by catbehaviors

Happy TCS Secret Santa 2011 everyone!
Thanks all for your answers! I was just wondering if it was required. I still haven't gotten around to it yet... gahhhh....
Its not required that you answer any questions at all, but it sure helps your SS know what to buy
One more question????
Can you ask the snoopers if they could ask your Santee to answer the hints, or what?
Absolutely! But I would give your santee until after this weekend to ask. Work weeks can be very busy for some people. But yes, if you have any questions or want to clarify anything a snooper can do that for you.Originally Posted by catbehaviors

No rush or anything like that, but your Secret Santa might want you to fill that out somewhat soon. Why you ask
I need my recipient to fill out there questionnaire, as I need all the help I can get
Maybe next year I will get you, since you would be much easier to shop for
JUST AN FYI....if you read this book, you will be bawling uncontrollably. And I DO mean UNCONTROLLABLY!!!! Only read it if you will be alone LOL!!!!
Snoopers come in very handy. Say, you want to buy your person a book, but you don't know if they've already read it. The snooper could inquire for you. One year, I had picked out a throw blanket that I wanted to get my person. It came in three different colors. A snooper found out for me which of the three colors my person liked best. (My person didn't know I was getting her a blanket...just an item for the living room.) Snoopers are great and they hold themselves to a high moral code of conduct that prevents them from revealing a Santa's true identity.Originally Posted by catbehaviors
I was just wondering their purpose.
Yes, I do that as well, though I tried doing it all just again one year and still said almost the same thing! LOL So, it is updated though!Originally Posted by katiemae1277
I'll admit i copied last year's and made a couple tweakswhat can i say, I'm very steady
Yes, Snooper Santees are SOOO SOO much help!Originally Posted by nurseangel
