Noticed two items went 'poof!' from your set, so I'm sending them again.

"Oh now I get it! Yeah!" Derpy grabs a small notebook and a pen and starts making notes.

Getting ready, morning routine. For example preparing breakfast:
#1 collect fresh eggs from the chicken coop
#2 milk the cow
#3 roast the coffee beans
#4 grind the coffee beans
#5 put water kettle on the stove
#6 brew coffee
#7 put tablecloth on the table
#8 put plates on the table
#9 put cups on the table
#10 put napkins on the table
#11 put cutlery on the table
#12 cook scrambled eggs
#13 cook pancakes
#14 cut fresh bread
...and so on. Everyone who wants to play can pick one task (they all got to help together to prepare breakfast). Then either a random number generator decides which tasks could be carried out with success - meaning a luck based game -, or there might be a secret pattern if you prefer a logic deduction type game.
Next game round has a different overall task (eg. "crafting presents", "cleaning the house", ...) which again is split into several smaller tasks people can pick from.

"DON'T WAKE DERPY! What kinda tasks though?"

Whatever you enjoy ^^
You could let people decorate donuts (sort of like an art contest, providing an empty donut template). Or "Don't wake Derpy from his nap" which might use a list of tasks others have to do (by posting in the thread) and it includes trigger words or a random number generator to determine who was noisy enough to disturb your nap time. Or a coffee maze where people have to find coffee beans, cream and sugar, but can also run into unpleasant surprises like the veggie cake (game mechanics similar to Glitch's maze game from an earlier event). Or a trick-or-treat with friends, similar to an avatar contest but players have to find at least one other user to dress up together as a famous couple/group, eg. Bonnie and Clyde, Dr Frankenstein and his monster, tin man and scarecrow and cowardly lion from Oz. Or... well, what kind of game do you think sounds lots of fun?

Derpy takes a big bite of a donut and scratches thoughtfully at the side of his snout while he chews.
"But what game should I do?"

*hands Derpy a box of donuts*
You know what would be really cool? If you tell Gallagher you'd be interested in running a staff funded game during the nox event. Any game hosted by a dragon is a great game.
