I'll participate. Hopefully this year goes better than the last.Never mind, I don't want to do this anymore.
I'm not good at making things for people.

"I want it participate - wait no I don't." - Half of the people in this thread[color=#006FFF]Seriously. This is just for fun people; I understand some may not be too confident in what they might have to offer as a gift or may worry they won't get someone they know and therefore feel unable to give a "gift" but I doubt anyone expects anything stupendous or anything like that--it's just a fun thing to do.
I hardly know any of the participants exceptionally well but regardless of who I get I'm going to draw something for them based on some background checking and hope they like it because I like participating in these (plus I enjoy surprising people with a drawing).
If you're dropping out of it for other reasons (e.g. traveling and therefore won't have time, etc.) then I understand. Otherwise, I think it'd be great if those who put their foot in could keep it in. It's fun, people!

I have anxiety issues and a problem getting far too anxious about things like this.
I try waaay too hard, I lose sleep, and I hate the thought of being judged by people I don't know very well.
Is this a good enough reason?
Spoiler:
[color=#006FFF]If you have your own reasons, that's fine--I don't mean to call the attention to any individual so much as just to say that this is one of those things where "The more, the merrier" is a definite factor, and with people dropping after joining it can feel a little disappointing since that's one, or two, or however many people less being involved.
If you don't want to participate in it, that's totally fine. I just hope that it doesn't make for some sort of domino effect where people think "Well if _____'s dropping out, then so am I."

It really isn't hard to make a gift.You might link them a youtube video, smut, wallpapers, a picture, or a really good song you really liked and then say "Merry Christmas!". And it doesn't even have to be to a single user. Link some stuff to those users you really got well with or laughed like hell froma post of them. Some people are really overthinking this.
@OP: You might want to say something similar to what I just said at the intro. That was just a thought though.
well I"ve stated what you can give and it pretty much follows what you said, I would much prefer if people can make something original(rather than say Google > Christmas greetings > pick a random picture > send to user) takes like a minute and doesn't seem like the person cared as much. However it doesn't have to be anything as complicated as a personally made game, or story, as some people in the past have done. The gift is of course yours to make whatever you want, I just feel it would be better if at least a little thought or even time went into it, that's why I'm giving people a month to get the gift ready ^^

[color=#006FFF]I for one am pretty excited and looking forward to seeing who I might get this year.
Oh that actually brings a question: What if we get the same person we got last year? I know the chances for that are rather slim but it's still a possibility. Should we go one with it regardless (I'd be fine with that but I'd prefer someone different just to keep it interesting) or should notify you about it?

it sort of follows the whole "if you don't like who you got? bah humbug" they will be completely random and so while the chances are low, I can't offer people a way to change who they picked just cuz they had them before, but I'm sure the person at least wouldn't expect it haha

[color=#006FFF]Alrighty, sounds fine enough with me. Since the chances are slim it's not a major concern so much as just a sudden thought, lol.
Also, just to throw it out there to people who might not know what to give, I've seen sigs and avatars (ie. shop'd anime girls with effects and such) being given to people. So when it doubt, make a neat little sig/avatar of someone's waifu maybe! Just something to maybe get some thoughts going for anyone struggling or worried at all.
