    I've been looking for a successor to Witcher 3, and I've heard good things about HZD.

    @Ladybug2332, thank you again for the wonderful gifts. It really means the world and I'll try to pay forward the kindness and generosity you've shown me.

    I am so glad you had a wonderful Hanukkah and that I was able to be a part of it with you. I had so much fun piecing everything together and seeing your posts. I’m glad you enjoyed them so much!

    Sorry this post is late.... @Blackhawk1313 parents brought the gift of a deadly cold to our house and I’ve been in a drug induced coma for a few days.

    Sagat Satan did it again.

    This time they sent me a pair of Sennheiser earbuds I've had on my wishlist since my last pair of the same model wore out like 5 years ago.
    s-l300.jpg

    These are, hands down, the best sounding earbuds I've ever owned.
    I hope Sagat doesn't mind, but I just got a pair of headphones from my Satan so I gave these buds to my wife, whose earbuds just wore out a couple of months ago. She's very grateful!

    Thanks again, Sagat! Stop sending me things.

    God damn, Sagat Satan. You're making the rest of us look bad! Although I'm happy that Pipe is overflowing with gifts since I'm broke as shit right now and it doesn't look like I'll be able to do a second wave :(

    Thanks to our kind neighbours accepting a package for me I got my final gifts before Christmas!

    fowds9ewaf09.jpg

    There were two more notes, the rhymes as great as before:
    Your dear old Scratch, he reads a lot,
    Though oft 'tis naught but tripe and rot.
    From that chaff, the two books herin
    Inpressed him so, so please, dig in.

    With this expansion of your shelf
    There's one detail I must straighten,
    For now I shall reveal myself:
    Sincerely, Straightzi, your Satan.

    I can honestly say that I have never heard of these books, which makes me very excited. I noted in my wishlist post that I hope to get something my Satan likes and @Straightzi delivered.

    Thanks a lot for the thoughtful gifts, Straightzi, this has be a great Satanmas for me!

    After paying for expedited shipping, I'm super pleased my package has been possibly checked into a receiving facility near my Satanee. A day after it was supposed to be on the doorstep. And is just sitting there.

    Good. Good good

    Hey Satan, just wanted to let you know that I'm at my parents house through Monday. If something is getting delivered between now and then, please let me know and I can ask my neighbor to grab it and hide it in their house for me!

    Please and thanks

    So, it looks like I got something in the mail yesterday.
    a41ymh7qfh0w.jpg

    Somebody sent me five pounds of cookies and cookie dough (and some sweet-ass packing bubbles).

    343kvzdbwdgc.jpg

    Again, I'm not 100% that this is a Secret Satan, but if it isn't, the world is a lot weirder than I thought it was.

    3ip27qj0ry8t.jpg

    I tried offering some to Rocko. He was not entirely interested. More more me, I guess. A lot more.

    Also, I'm sorry, I just realized that the cookies aren't misshapen: They're dicks.

    Photos to follow?

    Also, thank you to @SagatSatan. I just figured out what the message in the Amazon package meant.

    Again: I thought I might have been drunk and typed "Tiger!" into a gift message for myself. Because, you know, tigers!

    Satan’s helper, in the guise of a UPS driver has dropped off 2 packages. I’ve been instructed by our dark lord to not open them until after family gifts have been opened, so details will come later.

    The dark one has finally revealed themselves to me!

    I will finish this post from a computer shortly.

    Lo! A dusk angel with burning wings did alight at my door, leaving behind a parcel filled with torment!

    iNo07zH.jpg?1

    rlbRJ0V.jpg?1

    CXuxDOJ.jpg?1

    The fudge is quite delicious. (I might request the rocky road recipe, because I don't often like fudge with nuts, but this was my favorite of the lot!)

    Enclosed was also a personal note with dark tidings that ultimately revealed my benefactor to be the great @Madican! There was also a URL within the note to a humblebundle gift for a game they claim is their GOTY 2017, but the resulting page says it's a bad code (I've checked it three times - DMing might work better in case there are letter glyphs being clipped improperly in the printout?), so I don't know what game it is yet!

    All around, a wonderful gift experience. Madican mentioned in their note that they enjoy crafting a narrative for their satanee to accompany the gifts, and I quite agree both as the recipient and as someone who's tried to do this myself whenever possible - part of the fun of this experience is dialing up the roleplay of it :D

    Thank you Madican, and @Brolo and all the imps for organizing this experience! Y'all are the best <3<3<3

    Okay! Got a pair of boxes yesterday and just had the chance to computer the pictures.
    Also I totally opened the boxes and disgorged them before realizing I did not take the requisite box pictures.
    Therefore, here is the content:
    First!
    Booooooks to help rebuild my classroom library! I cannot put into words how happy I am about the books. It's a great variety and selection, and I know my students will enjoy them. I intend to read a couple of them myself. haha
    lqm3ErT.jpg?1
    Second!
    Cookies!
    ynIrU7P.jpg
    I shared them so I wouldn't eat them all at once. haha. I ate one, and my boyfriend asks, "What kind are they?" and I say, "Delicious," so he ate one and says, "You're right. They are delicious."
    Third!
    Games! Oh man! I have been wanting Yoshi's Woolly World! And my bf and I are always looking for games to play together (or battle each other in haha), so I'm looking forward to trying out some Pokken Tournament, too!
    rwrTm0y.jpg?1
    I broke out the Yoshi last night despite currently being less than 5 hours from the end of Horizon Zero Dawn. I just couldn't resist the adorableness.

    I will upload pictures later, but I just wanted to come in now and say a huge thank you to my Satan, who gifted me Breath of the Wild and a Zelda themed controller for our new Switch.

    I’m very excited to play...once I can wrestle a controller away from my kids who dove right in to Super MARIO Odyssey.

    I didn’t see a name at all, so my Satan remains anonymously awesome.

    Thank you!

    Glad you enjoyed the fudge! It doesn't seem as though my impromptu packing held up as well as I was hoping so it's good to see it all arrived intact. I will be certain to DM the Humble link as soon as I can get back to my computer in a day or two.

    I'm glad everything got to you. The guy at the shipping place thought it might arrive on Tuesday and considering I wasn't thrilled with how the cookies came out (too crunchy), I thought they would get stale.

    In any case, it's a good reminder to get everything out before the week leading to Christmas.


    Edit: Wait, how many boxes did you get? There should be 3.

    Apparently I may have been gifted? I've got a package waiting for me when I get home from work!

    So the last couple of days have been... a lot. Let's say a lot.

    So I haven't had time to post about a mysterious package that may or may not be related to the exchanging of gifts between Internet chums?

    Somebody sent me a movie! A movie about gangsters? Is this a threat? Am I being threatened with gangsters? And is one of them Tom Hanks???
    yNWRHHe.jpg

    Road to Perdition has been on my must-get list since Mikey Neumann did a retrospective on it! There was no note in the packaging, but I am assuming for the moment that one of you fine folks sent it to me? Am I correct in this assumption?

    Two boxes. I thought there might be another forthcoming based on the edit in your note, but since the other two came on saturday, I figured if there was another it wouldn’t get here until tomorrow. (That’s a sentence with weird tenses.) I didn’t want to wait to post in case you were tracking and it said boxes had arrived.

    That's pretty weird. They all went out on the same day, with the cookies and games shipped out at a different location. Hopefully you'll get the other box soon.

    I added a penny to the shipping to make it truly evil

    Inside were a note and an envelope.
    Envelope says open last, and I obey.

    I don't even have an SNES for Shaq-Fu-nanigans, so all is forgiven!

    Curious as to what the letter means, I open the envelope to find... A check?
