Draw a crude picture of a cat, then either place it in the shot or crudely crop it into the image.

Pictures have been uploaded! Sorry for dubious quality; the BF's phone is apparently bad at autofocus, and also I touch cameras and they turn into potatoes.  A gift! A gift comes!  Thanks, Rhjamiz! And... "trust exercise?" Hoo boy.  Hey, it's Avalon! I've been told I need to play this, what with the Mafia and all (did you check my post history, Santa?), so I'm sure this'll get a lot of play. Thank you! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the contents of the smaller box: a Rider-Waite Tarot deck! It's really cool to finally own one, and I will have to find excuses to integrate it into games. Or just learn some of those old-timey Tarot-card games, I dunno.  Obligatory picture of a cat investigating the box. The other cat wasn't interested in playing along, since there was a critical bird situation outside the window, but perhaps I'll get a shot of him and the Tarot deck later. My desire to harass cats is nigh-infinite.

They will get to enjoy a rousing game of Richard Little's VCR Charades Game-- I suddenly had something come up this Sunday, that does not involve me avoiding that game in the least. Nope not at all.

And no, I did not look at your post history, I am just very good at accidentally being a good Santa. I've been playing a lot of real-life Mafia and Avalon lately so I figured I would share.

Okay, so I got another package today. Also without a name attached anywhere or note! Exciting. On the off chance that this is one of you fine goons, I received the copy of Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear! Can't wait to tear into this one.

Dear Santee, I have just placed an order with two vendors from Amazon with expedited shipping for two separate packages to arrive at your address some time before Christmas (at least, I hope that's what my money is paying for). I have also sent some instructions to the Santa Taskmaster concerning this!

I am also signing up for lightning round 3! Gift Preferences: I like board games and MtG, and I'm not really into pen and paper RPGs anymore. I also like cooking stuff, books, and other random nerd stuff. General Location: Central US Solemn Vow: I solemnly swear I will send presents and post about what I got and all that good stuff!

Mystic Mongol posted:So, uh, can I get in the final lightning round? yes, but you need to post to that effect, and also send the email Vidmaster posted:I am also signing up for lightning round 3! You are also in! everyone, Due to the timing, I've let this round stay open for a couple extra days because I'm going to make it the last round. If you want in on a lightning bonus round, you have about 24 hours from this post. As of right now we have around six or eight goons in the round, but I'll hold it open till tomorrow night regardless, so nobody gets left out.

LIGHTNING BONUS ROUND 3 emails are away! And this means TGSS 2014 signups are now closed for the year. Will the following goons please contact me as soon as possible, because I'm worried about you: Froghammer Mr. Maltose Old Doggy Bastard I have no status for you having sent anything. With just 8 days left to get something delivered, you really need to get a move on. Or, if you've already sent something, just let me know!

Instructions for the Royal Mail:  I played Zeppelin Attack with my girlfriend last night, and it was great! As Gorilla Khan I shot down her Ice Queen (hah) zeppelin fleet in a close but really fun match. Thanks, secret Santa! Hoping to get a 4-player game on the go on Wednesday and Sunday, that seems like it'll be total chaos.

 Tum ti tum. Hello meatbag owner.  What's that?  What the gently caress is that?? Calm down Cicero! Its only my Secret Santa Present!! Please note, Cicero is a Special Cat (that's a polite way of saying an inbred farm cat with a heap of issues) so Big Black Eyes (always capitalized) s normal for him. As is freaking out at new things.  Like a good boy, I open the card first.  Dungeon World, some more Marauders (You can never have enough boom-doggies) and some walls - as well as what seems to be every character sheet for DW pre-printed! But wait, theres more!  Bonus Treasure (and a close up of the walls) - A collection of PDF's for Dungeon World! Thanks a lot Santa! I've been meaning to get Dungeon world at some point, so its going to go into the line of RPG's for my group! I'll have a lot of fun reading it before then!

A package arrived! Well, the GPO tried to deliver it and failed because I'd nipped out to get some lunch for ten bloody minutes. Buggers do this more and more. Anyway! After liberating the package from loving Telferton, where it took three people looking at the Awful app on my phone to demonstrate that I am indeed my forum name, I got it in my grubby hands! My cat wasn't impressed. He was asleep at the other side of the flat. It was a book-wrapper rather than a full on box, so he can't hide in it. The finger's to hide my address. Inside...  Fantastic! Santa delivers again. This goes perfectly with my other gift from Santa, which was the Netrunner base game. Thanks so much!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! A present for me! A box! Excellent! Best present ever received today so far!  A collection of classical haiku! None of this Western bullshit where it's like "i took a big poop / i hope i didn't wake up / the kids or neighbors" poo poo.  The Bansenshukai! Wikipedia has a quick summary here: quote:Bansenshukai (萬川集海, translated 'Sea of Myriad Rivers Merging') is a Japanese book containing a collection of knowledge from the clans in the Iga and Kōga regions that had been devoted to the training of ninja.[1] Excellent, now I can learn how to form all those goddamn hand seals that they use in my JAPANESE ANIMES so I can turn into a log! I imagine the translator credited on there must have had a tragic childhood with a name like that. Now that I have haiku to meditate on and a real life manual of ninja arts, all I have to do now is hone my chakras...  oh that's cool i guess it's a bag - empty   Woah - stones to help me hone my chakras! Chakra (plural)? I think they might have something to do with that bag. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE  Alright, uh, maybe there is a joke I'm missing here.

Posting to confirm that my Santee's gift is on its way and that my gift came in! It got mixed up with some other holiday packaging so I had it for a while without realizing it. Pictures incoming when I can get my pet in proper position.

Glad you like the sound of it! I bloody love it, and if you fancy a game online there's usually a few on SA at any time. The hardest bit is definitely choosing a class, even with only the base 8, so good luck with that now

In other news, I got a thing in the mail today!  An Anima Tactics starter (the faction I was looking into starting, as well!) and a Steam Arachnid swarm. Even better that they're the one-piece metal ones, I've heard some horror stories about assembling the multi-part metal spiders. Thanks Santa! I tried to get an obligatory photo with the cat, but she wouldn't stay still thanks to the pugs.

Did one of my Santas send me a small opalescent pyramid? I got a small package from the UK recently and have no idea where it's from. It looks really cool and I'm probably going to try taking pictures of it on my day off in any case.

It's the first night of Saturnalia, and it's time for me to open the first gift: Thanks a bunch! Io Saturnalia! Also forgive the backwards image; it's a Sign of the Pagan board game, and I can hardly wait to see how this game works. Tomorrow, I'll open the second gift and show it to all on the thread.
