    Well, I've found out that my Child's Play paintings arrived in Seattle on time, which is a relief, cos they made it to the dinner/auction. My santee's third parcel hasn't arrived though :(
    What did you paint for the auction? I saw the pictures Gabe linked to, and all the paintings that could be seen are pretty awesome


    I did a Professor Layton - an image of the Professor and Luke looking at the time machine, and a screenshot from Limbo, the same image as the one I did in the Solid Saints thread in SE++. They're both on my blog, if you want to see their progress.

    Some DMs will refuse countdown dice and some Magic folk will refuse traditional d20s. For some reason.

    As both magic and D&D player, I have both, and I use spindowns for magic, and d20s for D&D, and for rolling dice in magic where applicable.

    In case people don't know how dice numbers work...opposite sides of dice add up to equal the number of sides plus one. so on a six, the opposite sides should be 1/6 2/5 3/4; d20 1/20 2/19 3/18 etc etc.

    My DM is pretty cool, so he shouldn't care. And I've already used it with the kids to practice their numbers. :D My daughter knows them all really well already, but trying to get Jeremy to learn his numbers from 11-20. Each would get 3 rolls and then they'd have to say what the top number was.

    I can understand not wanting countdown dice for dice rolls, but why would you disallow a regular d20 as a counter? Actually, I've never heard of counting dice before.

    Why? As long as it's not weighted then it should make fuck all difference what number is where.

    So my Santa has been insanely awesome over the course of this event. First, they sent me a photoshop of the view down my street turned into a Warhammer 40k Imperial recruiting station. Then a couple days ago I got his:

    because my Santa is incredible and understands how huge of a 40k nerd I am.

    Today I picked up the package from the post office. Hmmm could this be the most homosexual of gifts? No wait, it's-

    Hhooolllyyyy fucking shit. It's a giant, 400 page hardcover rulebook for a tabletop RPG based around the Deathwatch! I didn't even know this existed until right now, it's like my Santa knows me better than I know myself. There's just so much stuff in this book, it's incredible. I can't wait for the holidays next week so I can try this out with my brother, he's a giant 40k nerd too. I wonder if this gets played on the forum too? I haven't been into the tabletop forum for a while.

    Thank you so much Shrieking Emu! Many foul heretics, xenos and witches will die as a result of your generosity! And Merry Christmas!

    PACKAGE GET!

    I'm not as good at fancy type as others here, but I'll do my best.
    Got home from the longest day of work I've had in a while, when what to my surprise there's a package waiting for me!
    img0187p.jpg

    Now I was cautious as I had received a false alarm earlier in the week when my fiance's present arrived in a box as well. As I examine the package, I notice something that catches my eye...
    img0189nm.jpg
    WHATTHEF...customs decleration?!?!



    Instantly cooler because it had to cross international borders. And possibly an ocean.



    Opening, I find
    img0191u.jpg
    a missive (I think I used the right word) and a CD entitled "Music to Play Games By".
    img0192j.jpg
    img0193sq.jpg



    Excellent choices good sir, for I truly enjoy both games, and the music...this combination will, I'm sure, play me sweet sweet raptures as I....type a 5 page paper for my final....

    RAHHHH! But school isn't your fault, in fact you may have just provided me what I need to make it to the other side sane.[/SPOILER]


    tl;dr
    Mrs. P, Lewie did just fine!

    Now to finish up my project for [redacted due to North Pole regulations].

    Your image tags won't work because you're using links to a webpage where you image is shown, not the image link itself. If you don't see ".jpg" or similar in your link, it won't work with an image tag. You'll need to upload to an image host that allows direct linking, like imageshack.us.

    And all I see in your flickr photos is a CD? You mentioned games in your comments? I'm confused.

    Let's peek at what's within the plastic, eh?
    IMAG0082.jpg
    Being that I was raised on TV, I must assume this is a huge bag of cocaine! Thanks Santa, you nailed it!

    Let's slooooowly unwrap this

    Within the package, another similarly wrapped package. Also, I need to recycle some of that junk mail back there...

    HELLO AND HAPPY X-MAS FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE!!!
    Upon realizing that you were to receive giftings from me, I harnessed the power of the interwebs to discover you had an interest in some sort of Super Meat Hobby! This was great news because here in NH we take great pride in our meats! Have a spicy holiday mystery interweb person!!


    It appears I am not getting any cocaine. Let's crack open this package marked "Gift 1" and see what's inside!
    IMAG0105.jpg
    Damn, I feel like going to go floss right now. It's a bit fuzzy in the picture, but that Gummy Bacon is strawberry flavored


    Let's crack open "Gift 2". Is it more bacon?
    IMAG0106.jpg
    it is a mystery ooooOOOOooooo

    IMAG0107.jpg
    Rotten meat? Is that code for cocaine???
    IMAG0108.jpg


    Let's just spend a moment to take it all in before we uncover what kind of rotten meat is within this package of rotten meat.

    HAPPY XMAS BROSEPH -> OR BROSEPH-ETTE!!

    YES! I'm glad to see the parcel arrived in one safe piece! Sorry about the distinct lack of cocaine, I usually save that for New Years!

    I'm glad you liked it though, I was a bit nervous custom painting a Munny as I've never done it before, but always wanted to. When I saw the official Super Meat Boy vinyl figures, they left something to be desired and seemed way overpriced. I figured I would give making my own a shot. It was sad to see my little Meat Pie go, but I know you'll give it a great home. Happy Xmas!

    I agree, but there's something to be said for being annoyed that a roll was almost a 20 but is actually much lower. Countdown dice don't have that as often.

    I always send my Secret Santa gifts out so they get there (roughly) the week before Christmas. I find it's much more festive that way.

    I have part one of my gift (as mentioned in a previous post) which was awesome, and which will be used ON Christmas day :)

    Just got a message that my super secret custom gift should be on Santees doorstep TODAY. Im nervous because I havent ACTUALLY seen it in person. So I hope it came out alright...

    I hope they enjoy it. Gift #1 should have gotten there a little while, and #3 is slated for December 21st.

    So much cheer!

    Framed Serenity money? Awesome graphic novels?! A BOX OF SERENITY MONEY?!

    Slacktron, me and my giant hard on for all things Joss Whedon thank you tremendously!

    Well, ain't that fancy. My new hope now is that Whedon becomes like Zombies and PS3 next year.

    Only problem is...

    It's gift 2 of 2!
    17122010001.jpg
    Look at them flaunting me with their neat wrapping paper and decorated tin!

    Do I patiently wait for the other gift to arrive before Christmas Eve? I mean, it's only one week, right?

    Ahh, yes. The last day of work complete and significant progress made on my final project that will be over and done with tomorrow at 5:00, wrapping up another successful semester of grad life. Things are good, really, and its hard to think of what could make the day better when suddenly I see a package with a return address that reads:

    Council of Treasure Placement

    Oh yes, it's-

    GiftGet4b.gif

    Indeed! I even set aside the Hibachi I was salivating over on the ride home, and let me tell you what, it takes some serious excitement to get me away from hot food.

    Camera: Check
    Cat Companion: Check
    Christmas Cheer: Oh yeah

    On to the presents!
    Companion Cat keeps the package contained:
    DSC00033.jpg

    Upon opening, me and Cat Companion discover... Peanuts!
    DSC00035.jpg

    After a bit of digging, I come upon a card and treasure! Literally, a treasure chest!
    DSC00039.jpg

    The card says to open first, so I do and find the identity of my santa to be a certain Arcadian named Belligerent! You sir, are an awesome human being.

    I took a picture of the letter, but the words don't come through, so hopefully blligerent has a copy he can paste up here. Though, to give you a taste, here is how it began:
    Dear ADVENTURER KIAS,

    Congratulations on your latest conquest and adventure. We at the COUNCIL OF TREASURE PLACEMENT sincerely apologize for failing to place sufficient loot in your latest victim's carcass. We have taken the effort to ship the missing items to your [lair/castle/tower/guildhall]...

    On to the loot! First in the chest are some new figures to terrorize my players on Satruday game night:
    DSC00046.jpg
    DSC00048.jpg

    Yess, yess, perfect! Spell Martyrs and Warcaster Kreoss! My players recently received word of a unique magical trace a little while ago they were planning on looking into. Guess who they will find upon arrival? Oh yes, and they are due for a tough encounter :twisted:

    Then there was the discovery of coins, of a delicious nature, shiny gems, and delicious Ghiradelli chocolates, to calm my GM nerves and quicken my thinking. And beneath them was a book of inspiration about a particular girl, who also happens to be a genius, that happens to one of my all time favorite graphic novels ever.
    DSC00047.jpg

    Seriously, if you never heard of Girl Genius, get to reading. Like now. So much awesome and SCIENCE here I am surprised the book doesn't explode! I actually have a copy of this already, but I am using it for my thesis, and toting it around with all my other text books has lead to serious damage and marked up pages. I was planning to pick up a fresh copy and collecting the rest of the series in paper, but you beat me to it! Well done sir!

    Now if only I had something to hold my beer in while gaming that reminds the players just who is in charge in this table. Oh snap, how about:
    DSC00041.jpg
    I need a new camera! Its a metal beer mug that reads:
    Kias
    Master of the Dungeon
    Penny Arcade
    2010

    Absolutely awesome Belligerent. And to wrap things up, here is a shot of the entire haul:
    DSC00054.jpg

    Thanks a ton Belligerent! This is a fantastic gift package! Merry Fracking Christmas you classy fellow, you!

    By the way, here's the full text of the letter I sent Kias.
    Dear ADVENTURER KIAS,
    Congratulations on your latest conquest and adventure. We at the COUNCIL OF TREASURE PLACEMENT sincerely apologize for failing to place sufficient loot in your latest victim’s carcass. We have taken the effort to ship the missing items to your [lair/castle/tower/guildhall]. We have included a list of items enclosed so that you can ensure no goblin or footpad has made off with any of your [TREASURE ITEMS]. On the bright side, you will not need to wipe the viscera off of these items this time. Unfortunately, we were unable to ship you some of the more common items like bear asses, gall bladders, or rusty weapons.
    Included in this chest should be some or all of the following:
    • Several Coins of the Realm ™ *
    • Many Exotic Gems ™*
    • Rare and exotic consumables designed to bolster intelligence and Stamina*
    • One (1) manual designed to entertain and enlighten based upon extensive Research**
    • One (1) container designed to contain all manner of liquids, both hazardous and inert***
    • Several Effigies designed to remind you of past and future conquests.
    If any items are missing, please make your complaint known to your local TREASURE PLACEMENT representative. We will notate your noncompliance with our policies and deal with you it accordingly.
    Sincerely,

    Belligerent
    Slayer of Player Characters
    Peon of the COUNCIL OF TREASURE PLACEMENT
    P.S: As always, you may keep the chest container as long as you are carrying it during the time of your demise so that the ADVENTUERER that slays you may reap the rewards of their own ADVENTURE!
    *cannot be exchanged or traded for items of real value.
    **Research was completed by an intern and may not reflect actual content.
    ***Do not place hazardous materials inside container. Do not taunt container.

    I don't care about Whedon or Serenity at all, but even I can tell that's a fantastic gift package.

    Kudos to everyone. This is a freaking amazing thread.

    Holy crap! That made it to you already!? Go ahead and open it, as I have no idea when 1 of 2 will make it to you, since it wasn't sent directly from me.

    For the record, that package was mailed from Springfield, IL to the Netherlands in a matter of 4 days. Holy fuck.

    You're welcome, SniperGuy. We aim to please.

    You may find that Serenity box o' cash a little light, because I couldn't resist framing up a couple of those bills for myself. It may seem unfair for me to take a cut, but remember: “About 50% of the human race is middlemen and they don’t take kindly to being eliminated.”



    And Icemopper/Radiation: it appears that I am a Santa so secret that I am not even on the list. Now that my cover has been blown, it's safe to add me.
