Jeric 46,851 December 16, 2018 Share December 16, 2018 Starting today I will begin matching donors and volunteers to the Hearths Warming Helper event. I’ll PM you with your matched user. For those that donated before today, and those that have volunteered, you will be matched with another donor. The idea is to figure out what they like and let one of us know so that way we can design a badge specially tailored for them from you. For those that want to make this easier, you can add likes/dislikes on your About Me. It doesn’t have to be holiday or pony related. On December 24th a special character will send all of the gifts out. If you donate today or later there will be a second event after the holiday so don’t worry. If you want to be excluded from this please PM me. The only rules about this are simple 1) You can try and trade as long as you don’t do so publicly 2) Keep your Hearts Warming Helper secret from the user 3) Nothing abusive or NSFW I’ll leave this open for questions while I prep this. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Guide 21,360 December 16, 2018 Share December 16, 2018 You can Try and Trade what? Who your Hearth Warming Helper is? Or the holiday badge that is specially designed?

Right now there area 50+ people in the pool which includes anyone with the MCM donor badge, MCM helpers, and select staff that have fallen prey to the challenges. So yes. If you were gifted the badge you are included 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparklefan1234 170,510 December 16, 2018 Share December 16, 2018 Does the person who donated make a badge for their secret Santa or do both donator and the recipient make one for each other? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be posting more detailed instructions in a PM, but no. @Lord Valtasar made a Badge background. Basically say you pulled my name. You’ll get a PM from Events with your Hearths Warming Helper (me in this example). You know I like a bunch of things. You would reply to the PM with “I want to give Jeric a Lightsaber”. We’ll take that gift idea and create the badge and your gift will be sent to them on Hearths Warming Eve. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, however if an artist wants to draw his “gift” image and can make it transparent and look good we will use it. I can see some wanting to do that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeric 46,851 December 20, 2018 Author Share December 20, 2018 Hey all. Some of the requests we are receiving are really off the beaten path or complex. We aren't custom drawing these. Requests like "I want his OC to be fishing down by the river wearing a bowler hat while music notes are playing" won't be done. Look at the awards section for what we typically do with these. They are almost always existing vectors layered on a shield template. We also have 60 of these, so .... please understand we can only do so much. Some ideas are "This type of car" and a "X Character Plushie". That stuff .... that's what we are looking for. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeric 46,851 December 20, 2018 Author Share December 20, 2018 I made two already finished ones visible (with no indication who they are for) https://mlpforums.com/awards/category/9-hearths-warming-helper/ thats is what the request should be. A small gift signifying that you know something about the other person and got them something personal for them. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brony Number 42 10,069 December 21, 2018 Share December 21, 2018 I think you get a badge as long as you are a donor. I can't wait to see what I get. 1 This is my new signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
