Christmas is coming!
Dear lovely SentinelCrafters, it is time to get festive for Christmas once again!
Do you have someone you admire? Do you have friends or staff members that you would like to express your appreciation for?
Or maybe foes you would like to send boxes of coal to?
Well, now is your chance!
We proudly present to you our 2021 Christmas Event:
Christmas Delivery Service!
(With lots of love)

What is this Christmas Delivery Service?
Over the past two years, Eli and I have hosted this event with great success. When members of our community reached out and asked if this was happening again this year; I figured, why not? I'm happy to announce that the event has had some upgrades to the venue and the process, so be sure to read carefully down below! I'm especially excited about this padlet (https://padlet.com/brendaxnl/SentinelCraft)!

How is it going to work?
Preparing your gifts
- Gather the items you would like to send and write your love letters.
- Put everything (even if it is only one item) in a shulker box.
- All senders MUST rename their shulker box to: "To:<Name of receiver>" so we know who to deliver it to.
- You can add "Fr: <your name>" after "To: <Name of receiver>" if desired, this is optional.
Example: To: Eli - Fr: Brenda - make sure we know who the nickname is!
- You can send gifts to as many people as you would like (we encourage you to send gifts to as many people as possible!), but you can send only one shulker to each person.

This is where the biggest change gets explained; please read carefully!
How to send your gifts
1) Now that you have your shulker box (filled with either love or hatred) ready to go, and have signed up here on forums,
you teleport to the venue using the command: /christmasgifts!
2) Find the chest assigned to you in our Elf Factory!
(If we have not assigned you one yet, please be patient, MHGUforPresident, bugsy12 or myself will try to get you assigned one as soon as possible!)
3) Put your shulker boxes, full of gifts, inside the chest. Don't forget to name them, like explained earlier!
4) A secret Santa will pick up the gifts afterwards and deposit them in the corresponding mailboxes inside!
Note: Keep in mind that not everyone has registered for a mailbox. Please check the table below for a list of players who registered mailboxes.
How to receive your gifts
Any non-staff members are eligible to register for a mailbox. (All staff members already have dedicated mailboxes!)
The fun part is, you will not be able to access it until Christmas!
We highly recommend everyone to register for one. What if someone wants to send you a gift but you didn't have a mailbox registered? ):
You can register by replying to this forum post below, following this format:
