I have seen a lot of people confused about Galore today, and decided to create a poll to see who did and didn't receive a gift. The current theory seems to be that people who weren't on the site last year have received a gift, and those who were haven't. I decided to create a poll to see if this theory is true.
Link to the poll:

Please let me know if it works - it was created very quickly, so there may be some mistakes, but it should work. Apologies for grammar!
I will share the results either by tomorrow, or when the devs make an announcement, so please take the poll! If you want me to ping you with the results, just let me know and I'll make a pinglist ^_^
Edit: for clarification, when responding wether or not you were here last year, don't worry about wether or not you accepted the gift then. I'm mostly interested in wether or not it's just new accounts that got the gift!

The question is a little off. It asks if we got a gift and did we get one last year, but the answers are about if we got a gift and were present on the site last year or not.
I was indeed here last year, but I got a gift today. Some seem to think if you didn't get one last year, you got it this year, but I very much doubt I would just skip getting a gift from last year if I was online so I'm not sure if that's the case. Edit: But I cannot recall if I received this gift last year or not. But I do know I was around.

@FOXBODY that's a good point! I'm kinda working on the assumption that if people were around last year, they picked up their gift - I don't really know why anyone wouldn't, but included it for the sake of being complete.
Regardless, if you think that it would make more sense to change the question, I would be happy to do that (or at least try [emoji=veilspun tongue size=1])

@
ginnay I'd love a ping for any outcomes of this
@
FOXBODY You're an interesting case, sometimes the outliers are the most informative of all. Do you recall participating in Rockbreaker's Ceremony last year at all? All of your forum posts around that time are food bank requests, and none are within November or December, so if you hadn't said anything I would have assumed you were on hiatus like me.
Does anyone have any information about how long the gift was available last year? If it was only a day or two it might have been easy to miss, but less so if it was a week or more.
edit: it was 5 days hmmmm

By here last year do you mean a member of the site? Or active on the site?

@
Zeco5000 Active on the site to claim the gift or not is the thing we suspect matters

So "here" would mean active? I was on hiatus last year and it was available to me this morning

I'm same as FOXBODY, I was definitely around. Posted in the Forum Games around that time as well. :3 I also don't remember if I actually accepted the gift, but I did today.

my personal theory is that it's whether you actually claimed the gift or not!

i wonder if this is functioning similar to the.. spring swarm? i think? whichever micro holiday started early this year, where it kinda got stuck a bit. maybe the system that checks whether a player has claimed a gift is somehow stuck on last year, so only accounts that didn't claim it have it available? a gift that can only be claimed once but comes back every year seems odd, even if it is the same items, but maybe the fact that its the same items is throwing off galore.
