    Okay, I have been slacking. I received a second package from my Satan days ago but was unable to make a proper post but now I can! My pup wasn't around to inspect things this time but...

    kbxf1oshw3rf.jpg

    A wild, heavy box appears!
    The package contains bottles!

    lsqbjq9bv6v6.jpg

    SO MANY BOTTLES.


    lrve2rgk6myo.jpg

    A big ol' selection of brews from Hi-Fi Brewing. The labels may be hard to read after I resized the image down from HUGE so from left to right: Pre-Amp Blonde (x2), Sitar IPA (x2), Da Newbie Vienna Lager (x2), Woofer Porter (x4), and Whiskey Vanilla Woofer Porter (x2). I've since gone through two bottles of Woofer (I have a fresh pint next to me for this post), Whiskey Vanilla Woofer was a hit with the beer drinkers at the New Year's Eve party I attended, and my neighbors quite enjoyed the Pre-Amp Blonde that I shared with them on New Year's Day. High marks all around.

    Thanks again Satan! I may not know your (forum) name but I have raised several glasses in your honor.

    I win at Secret Satans forever.

    Cheers mate, glad you enjoy them!

    Okay, first, big apologies to @Okami for the worry. I got home at a later date than I thought I would. Everything arrived safely.

    Ash (usually called Ash Potatoes) wanted to help, but he made a better door than a window, so I took a new shot so you could see the awesome book.

    Okami, you apparently found it humorous for the same reason I did and it's not messing around when it says "Not-Even-Remotely-Artisinal" as here is one of the "recipes."

    Thanks @Okami, I'll have a lot of fun putting together the Ecto 1 while sipping on VERY low brow drinks.

    Gimme stuff. Please. And I don't just mean my Secret Satan.

    Yay! I tried to plan it out for about when you said you'd get home, but I'm glad it arrived safely all the same. I'm giving some serious consideration to getting that book myself, as a person that doesn't drink often, I love me some lazy drink recipes.

    Hey, people who haven't sent anything out yet -

    you probably should do that really soon

    especially if you have anything that needs to go overseas

    I got a gift! And I know it's from my SS because I didn't order anything and they wished me a Happy Christmas when I'm in fact Jewish. Very clever, Satan.

    No indicator of who it's from, but that's ok. I'm one step closer to having the full Dominion set.

    Nope, not the King. He was just a guy to us. I did have a happy Christmas though. I spend it every year with my husband's family and it's always a good time.


    In any case, I got a second thing! I don't know if these cards are separate from the 2nd edition base set I got for Hanukkah this year but even if it's not, I'll have more copies and that's always appreciated.

    The note did mention that another thing was coming if this came first but I received Adventures first so I don't know if anything is coming afterwards. If not, I thank you very much whomever sent me these fine gifts.

    A thing has arrived! Several a things, actually!

    a6y7NEkl.jpg

    I rip the box open in confusion and am greeted by a note and three separate things!
    First, the note
    eQcTvc7l.jpg

    It would appear that my awesome satan is @Rayze ! Sorry for being impatient and inquisitive, haha. Not knowing stuff drives me batty sometimes.

    Let's look through this last box of loot, shall we?

    First up is a bag of freeze dried dog treats? I have never seen these before and they smell surprisingly not awful and Pixi loves them.
    lx0DtTUl.jpg
    1pqoUEhl.jpg

    Next is a little jingly mouse thing for cats. Our cat normally dislikes this kind of toy but she has spent the past half hour throwing it to herself and flipping around like a weirdo, so I think this toy is a big hit.
    A3WYI1jl.jpg
    km71uEjl.jpg

    And last but certainly not least we have a tin of freshly made brownies!
    o7pQrCll.jpg

    I have no idea how to properly photograph brownies it seems. Anyway they smell incredible and i will be making a pot of coffee tonight and sharing these with my wife and with @N1tSt4lker (i guess, if i haaaaave to)

    And I will definitely be raising a drink in your name at PAX in a few weeks and spreading the love!

    Thanks for an awesome Christmas and for being a real rad Satan

    I took a chance with the toy and treats but figured the treats would be neutral enough for Pixi to enjoy and the toy has catnip in it so maybe that's why your cat likes it so much.That's definitely why mine loves it.

    Enjoy.

    YO!

    This guy came home to a proper 18x18 inch folding game board,
    and a set of 50 blank playing cards.

    cgbimw5f36u4.jpg

    Most of my work on games have been in digital design files and scrambled color copy print outs,
    so I'm super pleased with having a board and cards that I can apply decals to.

    Thank you for the Gift, Satan!

    Well, now that the holidays are over, it's good as time as any to reveal myself.

    I am the Satan for Abracadaniel, and I hope he's enjoying office supplies and fancy cocktail shaker! His gift of Wishlist Yet to Come will be arriving when it releases in a couple months.

    If you get a chance to read this duder, hope you had a Merry Christmas!

    A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM @Abracadaniel
    Thank you so much for the office supplies, we're actually getting ready to renovate our office at work so I'll actually have room for stuff!

    The shaker is perfect, we kept on meaning to get one for making cocktails at home so it's awesome.

    Things like Secret Satan are why I love this community, and I really, really appreciate being able to participate this year. Things haven't been easy but stuff like this reminds me how great it is that a bunch of internet randos can come together over the years and form a big weird awkward family type thing and do something great for one another.

    I think cats just don't appreciate toys from their owners. Every time I buy toys for friends' cats, they say "ah, my cat doesn't really play with toys" and then next day I get a text "oh my god he won't stop playing with it how did you do this"

    but then they also say I'm a disney princess, because anytime someone says "My dog/cat isn't friendly with strangers" they get all up in my shit. One of my friends gets upset when I hold her cats because they won't let her hold them.

    @cabsy GIRL I just want you to know that I have other gifts for you still! I just literally haven't had a weekend at home when the post office was open since before Christmas :bigfrown: I'm going to try to skip out during the day this week and mail your last gifts!

    @Rainfall hey so i've been trying to get this one last thing to send to you together and i don't think it's going to be happening sorry. My brother is a ceramicist, and he makes lovely works and I was hoping to comission something but his life has just been a bit too turbulent to be accepting commissions and it looks like it's not coming together.

    I really hope you've been enjoying the cocktail stuff, though!

    So according to my calculations the people who haven't gotten gifted yet are
    Mortal Sky
    Tam
    Tynic

    There's still 3 weeks left, and things may well be underway, but maybe @Brolo you want to give their Satans a heads-up?

    I somehow didn't see that there and the instructions said to use scissors because I assume (now) that they reuse the same booklet for multiple models

    @Tynic thank you for the lovely gifts and the seasonal card!

    (Your Art is the best OMG, I did a quick scan)

    I wanna print out a man sized one at work and pose with a face cut out so bad....

    But outside of work, I've enjoyed the books, and since it's kindle, I've shared them with family who are also enjoying them.
    My Mom and Oldest Brother especially.

    Thank you for making this Winter a bit less dreary for all of us!

    I jacked back in to The Internet after the holidays to discover a bounty of digital treasures! On Steam, I scored XCOM and XCOM 2, two very highly regarded games that somehow I'd managed to miss all this time, and also a healthy dose of Blizzard credit! Obviously I immediately bought a few loot boxes in Overwatch. First one even had an epic in it, much better than my usual 3 greys and a blue. It's not 100% clear to me if @Romanian My Escutcheon, Doxy was my Satan or just a proxy, but either way, thank you very much! Hail Satan!

    edit: rereading the message I think RMED was just the messenger, so the true origin (of all lies/darkness) remains unknown.

    @Tossrock I have been informed that apparently something will be arriving soon that may clear up this most mysterious of mysteries.

    Okay so apparently @Romanian My Escutcheon, Doxy lied, in the manner that the Prince of Lies would lie, and he was actually my Satan all along! How do I know?

    A fuckin' rad ass gift, that's how!

    Seriously I am going to use this... basically all the time? I do a lot of outdoor camping/harebrained hacky projects and having a multitool I can carry around for permanent access to a knife/pliers/screwdriver/etc is awesome.

    Thank you so much!

    @Tossrock I would apologize for my duplicitous nature, but I'd like to think it worked out pretty well.

    I hope that multitool serves you well, and that you find XCOM and XCOM 2 to your liking!

    It was an absolute pleasure serving as your Dark Benefactor. <3

    He's my favorite Wrestler too, and I thought business card size would be good and easy to share.
    Or good for labeling things. The decals were made with vinyl & laminate rated for 5 years and are outdoor durable.
    So a bunch of kids/adults could decal up whatever and where-ever

    Oh, I did have a few other ideas for KY stuff to send, but I wasn't sure of your opinion of Bourbon/Liquor.

    You def have some Ale-8 (it's a fruity ginger ale soda), and Virgil's Root Beer on the way though!
    Best of Luck with 2017
