I have 8 siblings, and several years ago, I took it upon myself to organize the our gift exchange. Every since then, it's been my responsibility to come up with the list of who buys for who.
At first I just randomly generated the list of buyers and recipients using a python script, but last year I got creative and made a puzzle website for my siblings to solve:

I had fun working on it, and [some of them] had fun solving the puzzle, so I'm doing it again this year. Oh, the possibilities.
