Hello, all! Welcome to a new holiday mini-game (mini as in it will be open for the next month or so and then closed). This game is pretty simple, but hopefully will be fun. The general gist is this: The first poster asks what gift you would give to someone, the next poster answers and asks what gift you would give for someone else, and so on.
Rules:
1) Don't use copyrighted characters.
2) Do be creative, both with answers and with questions.
3) Gifts don't have to be explicitly tied to a holiday, but they can be.
Example:
Poster 1: What would you give the man who has everything?
Poster 2: A great big box of nothing - he can put everything in it!
What would you give to the stressed holiday party hostess?
Poster 3: A major disaster that you can then turn into a minor disaster; once that has happened, any other problems will be insignificant!
What would you give to your favourite NW Mod?
