    @KoopahTroopah strikes again with my new favorite mug. Pictures didn't do this one justice, so I had to get a video. Thanks Koop!

    Hey I'm new to this high tech stuff. I don't know what I'm doing.
    Does it do anything with cold liquids?

    Nah, just stays dark. Only activates for coffee, tea, cocoa, etc...or I guess just hot water if some reason you like drinking just hot water.

    Presents away! One package is guaranteed today and the other should arrive before Christmas so have fun (hopefully) opening stuff twice!

    Or once if you're a person with patience. Either way, Merry Christmas!

    We may have a potential code red (with white fur trim) situation. I found an unexpected Amazon package on my doorstep this morning when leaving for work. No time to investigate fully but a quick peek showed the green shine of Amazon gift wrap within so it's unlikely to be something I've forgotten I ordered.

    Wow, Christmas is coming up quickly! I'm a bit behind where I usually am at this time. Really need to turn-and-burn this week, so that items can arrive to the appropriate destination at the appropriate time.

    ...Sorta? I got these great-lookin' two Kindle books in my email:

    PGjt97q.png
    MmNInD9.png

    I actually don't have either of these books, and I have actually been meaning to get around to reading the second one! Only small issue is, because I live in Canada, for some dang reason, I can't accept those specific Kindle books (even though both are available in the Canadian Kindle Store). I *can* accept them as an Amazon gift card and then should be able to use that to buy them in the Canadian Kindle store, so I *will have* these books eventually, just... it might take a bit of a weird trip, and Santa if you see me claiming them as a gift-card instead of accepting your very kind, well-thought-out gift, that's why.

  • RadiationRadiation Registered User regular
    DAMNIT! It wouldn't let me purchase them on the Canada store. What the heck is the point of globalization if these problems still crop up?!?

    Glad you didn't have either. I have the first book on my to read list. I listened to the second one (and the other 2 books) via audible. @metaghost had suggested I give it a try and it took a while for me to get through it, but it was a really neat series. I hope you enjoy it! There's still more on its way.

  • ImperfectImperfect Toronto, Ontario, CanadaRegistered User regular
    Thanks, though, you really tried, and Amazon has weird-as-hell rules about this stuff. I appreciate it and I'm going to find a way to read these books. I've PM'd you a potential solution - let me know!

  • cooljammer00cooljammer00 Hey Small Christmas-Man!Registered User regular
    That's actually a pretty good workaround, gift card credit in place of a book you can't accept.

    I was right! A short picture story with bonus background Christmas Lego because it is currently infesting every flat surface in our house.

    Awesome! I love deck builders and I love everyone being eaten by the dragon whilst failing to get any treasure in Dungeonquest and this seems like a glorious mash up of the two.

    This is going straight out to game night tomorrow!

    Massive thanks mystery Santa.

    jclast is innocent in all this.

    Because I am not. :twisted:

    Glad to see you like the gift, @Jam Warrior! I'm not the most knowledgeable as far as board games goes but as noted, I saw you were interested in a Clank! game and Space seemed the "friendlier" of the bunch according to a few forumers. Oh, and you wishlisted it too. :p

    There's another package coming your way, a small one I mailed, and I planned on revealing myself with it. Problem is, I was a bit too careless and unfamiliar with international shipping options, and I don't think said package will arrive in time for Christmas or even the New Year. My own mistake. Still, keep an eye out, it could come in at any moment.

  • jclastjclast Registered User regular
    Yeah, that was super not me and amazon let me down. I hear Clank is awesome, though, and I hope you enjoy it!

    And now that wait between shipping a gift and seeing the gift received post, where you spend your time growing increasingly worried that you somehow screwed up the address despite copy and pasting it from the message and wondering if the box has taken an unintentional side trip to West Virginia because of that.

    I live in Canada. There was a time I bought a few single cards from a guy in the US, and when the envelope arrived several weeks later it had stickers from Germany on it. One of the stickers marked entry, the other marked - if I may paraphrase - "WHY THE HELL IS THIS HERE? SEND IT BACK AND ROUTE IT PROPERLY." That was a good detour. XD

    I've had a Santee misspell their own address in the PM. Good thing I caught it in time.

    I did that once, the package was returned to the sender because I transposed two numbers.
    I felt terrible about it, and still double and triple check my address each year now, despite the fact that I copy and paste it directly from the previous year's sign up.

    Oh wow! More surprises to come? You are a super Santa. Sadly a last minute lurgy has scuppered games night tonight so next opportunity for Clanking it up is on Friday if there’s time after the current planned game.

    Thanks again.
