Hey again, Basinites.

I've got a healthy crop of Ironbeard Incognito sign-ups, and I'm just waiting on the three magic words from a few folks who couldn't decide on theirs when they first registered. I'm gonna leave the sign-up period open until I get those lists, so if you've been on the fence 'til now, this is your last chance to get in on the fun until next Solstice! If a little competition motivates you, consider this: After Gaudiguch, I have the most sign-ups from Celest, then Magnagora and Serenwilde, and finally Hallifax and Glomdoring. Who has the most Solstice spirit, hmmh?

Remember, all y'need to do is message me 'Sign me up for Ironbeard Incognito!' and give me three words about your interests, preferences, or favorite things.

In the next couple months, I'll be using a highly sophisticated machine to randomly pair up participants, and I'll send out letters revealing your giftee and their particular likes. From there, you do your best to put together a lovely, thoughtful gift, and await further details about the when and how of the actual exchange! And if you want a little reconnaissance done on your giftee, to learn more about what they like without revealing yourself, I'll be on hand to help!

Be well and be good, and sign up if you haven't already! I'm looking forward to another sweet Solstice season.
