And what the heck, I'm posting my list too: VJ9BT1OBNF7

i hope it's ok if my list isn't /co/ related
i'm just asking for a dedicated chess set
i've been getting a lot better now and nothing feels better than actually feeling the pieces
thanks and merry christmas!

>>88533747
people generally gift each other books in the $5-20 range, asking for a $40 chess set is kinda...out there.

>>88533768
haha i know it's kind of "dear santa, i want a ferrari" tier
i just thought i'd put it out there

>>88533816
fair enough

Anyone got any tips for buying gifts for a 5 and 10 year old? I've got to get my youngest siblings something but I'm out of ideas.

>>88534139
Can't go wrong with some plushes.
They make plushes of all kinds of stuff, including monsters etc.

That Mexibro's wishlist is a bit ridiculous. Who's going to pay $285 for a funko pop?

Merry Christmas guys. Here's my code

Also, what is your favorite /co/ related Christmas special?

>>88534452
Muppets Christmas Carol. Can't go a Christmas without watching it.

>>88534181
Do ten her year olds even use toys anymore though

>>88534477
This so much! Best interpretation of a Christmas carol

>>88534525
Depends.
My nephew is stitched to his tablet, but when he gets a good toy he'll go wild.

>>88534477
Muppets are great. I always liked their movies and renditions of classic stories.

>>88534439
I think that might be Mexican Pesos since it's .mx, so 285 would really be about $14.

By the way, when's the next stream?

>>88534587

How does a stream of all of the Planet of the Apes movies sound...starting about Wednesday?

>>88534139
Those big art supply sets that have like colored pencils, markers, watercolors, etc could be a good choice. Combine it with a sketch book and you can't go wrong.

>>88534933
If I hadn't already spent $60 on anons gifts I might've bought it if it were /co/ related

>>88534673
Those are great if the kid likes to draw, but the absolutely cheapest ones are usually pretty crappy so it might be a good idea to buy a slightly more expansive one.

There's quite a few Anons who should be receiving gifts this week part of the benefit of buying early is you can take advantage of Amazon's deals for slower shipping, which means Anons will get them closer to Christmas. I have a shitload of pantry dollars now apparently.

If anyone wants some movie digital copies im probably going to dump them all here tonight after work. Also posting my wishlist 1AFNGL2SDUUM2.

I just remembered seeing this earlier and forgot to respond. Do you want a drawing or a scrib? POFG might be a better choice for a drawing.

The Fight Before Christmas was amazing. I loved Megas growing up, and it hit so many of the right story beats. Little heavy on the Gurren Lagaan for my taste but I know it was done with love.
>They’d probably be written off for tax-purposes or something lame like that!
It still hurts, dammit!

I enjoyed Very Watchmen Christmas a lot for what it was. Had some character issues And when you're dealing with these ones, that isn't surprising, they're hard to pin down for a Christmas Dinner scene, but the core relationship between Nite Owl and Rorschach was very solid so kudos to you. Really liked the beginning in Rorschach's apartment.

Order of the Triad was short and sweet. I haven't watched Venture Bros. but I'm generally aware of the characters. Opening paragraph is hilarious, even without not really knowing the characters too well.
>I heard there was a Blacula nearby
Love it.

I've only been aware of Usagi's existence, and haven't read anything with him, so I was a little concerned heading into this one, but was relieved to see how well the story unfolded. Probably the most well written out of the bunch. It's a nice little plot, too. I was worried at the end that they'd follow the footprints back to their house and cause trouble for the family.


AND TIME FOR THE RESULTS:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poV2mZuVOjI

I've got to give it to Fight Before Christmas.
It's written just like an episode of one of my all time favorite shows, and the characterizations were all perfect.
Hell, you even rewrote the theme song!
>Uh, Coop? It's Santa.
Had me dying in the first minute of reading.


So thank you all that entered, it was very fun reading them, I hope it was fun writing them.
Be sure to keep practicing, and maybe one day if you're lucky, it will get a stranger to buy you $50 worth of nerd stuff.

Merry Christmas and HAIL HYDRA

That went better than expected.

Oh man, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun with the concept. Now if a drawfriend would just draw Megas doing a Giga Drill Breaker with a Christmas tree drill, life would be perfect.

Merry Christmas, Hydra.

Congrats to the winner! Man, it was fun to write it none the less. I hope people enjoyed it if they went through it.

Planning on making a gingerbread house now that finals are over.

Anyone have any tips/know-how?

>>88540489
Call up the city to see if there's been any documented reports on the lot to check for flooding or other domestic complaints.

>>88540489
Get some friends together & copy the competition rules from this year's Bob's Burgers Christmas episode.

>>88536564
Does it have something to do with that code in puzzle one?
is it also a numeric substitution cipher,

>>88540489
Be sure to do a coincide analysis of the blueprints to check for collisions before you finalize everything.

>>88540489
Check your planning permission. Bake based structures usually require more paperwork than traditional brick and mortar ones.

We're finally getting some snow again today. The weather report claimed it was supposed to snow non-stop from Thursday to Sunday last week and we only got a light flurry. Now it seems to be coming down pretty well, so I'm cuddled up with my kids and watching old MMPR episodes on Netflix out of nostalgia from our discussions a few threads back.

Speaking of, can anybody offer opinions on the Zyuranger DVDs from Shout! Factory? I've always wanted to check out some sentai stuff without it having been American-ized first.

>>88535916
Oh, cool. I've been looking forward to these.

Now if only we can convince Mexico to extradite Kamalanon, we can wrap up the art contest too.

>>88536631
>I have a shitload of pantry dollars now apparently.
Yeah... What the heck's up with that? I saw there was like a day's difference in shipping options with the choice of receiving a $5 credit for the later one (which is still supposed to arrive before Christmas). Thinking I'd just use it toward another gift purchase, I accepted, only to find out it's only good for grocery items or something?

>>88540552
It is indeed a substitution cipher, but the key is shall we say, a bit wordy.

>>88540760
Yeah it's basically grocery money

>>88540760
What is Amazon even in your countries? You have these deals and cashback stuff and drone delivery and same-day delivery and student discounts and whatever Amazonsmile is supposed to be while stuff barely makes it to my country at all. Did you sacrifice a smaller and weaker country to them or something?

>>88540874
next time anon, try a little more consumerism, a little more CAPITALISM.

>>88540874
Not yet, but we have something in the works. Where do you live?

>>88540874
I'd honestly not ever heard of this Amazon Pantry thing before, but it looks like you place grocery orders through it. I've always primarily used the site for books and movies, but I guess they're branching out to groceries in a big way now.

>Did you sacrifice a smaller and weaker country to them or something?
No, but the little town of Amazonia doesn't appear on maps anymore for a reason.

>>88540552
Is it absolutely necessary to read those pastebins for this puzzle?

>>88540994
Buttfuck nowhere, Sweden. I guess it's less "barely makes it to my country" and more "postal services don't like bringing stuff to the middle of nowhere".

I've ordered food from Amazon a few times now. It's really quite good. Got some stupidly cheap prices on cans and dried stuff to try it out. Baby food was cheap as hell as well. It's worth doing if you see things that you need or fancy.

I've noticed an interesting thing, apparently if you have a small enough wishlist (mine was four items) amazon won't even bother hiding what's been bought.
And since nobody here mentioned gifting me anything else (I've been gifted previously), I'm going to assume it's someone from my family.
If it isn't, I guess I'll post a pic on Christmas.

>>88541358
How do you know you are gifted if it isnt removed from the list?

>>88541384
Because it was.

>>88541399
Oh, my bad. Misread it.
Weird...

>>88541358
You can turn the hiding option on or off.

Oh boy! I thought that paired letter one was going to be the last? Are you going back to the old format?

Kamalanon mentioned something about receiving bad news, so they might just be working through some stuff at the moment. I do hope they come back soon.

>>88541644
I'm doing great, just happy to be home. How are you feeling, Hulkster?

>>88541543
Well, it was on when I got my first gift, and two weeks after getting it, the item anon bought for me is still hidden.
I mean, it's within the realm of possibility that my sister ordered the thing, got on my pc when I was otherwise occupied, either at a store or on a crapper or whatever, went to amazon and checked if it can be seen from my account... but it's a little far fetched because of the timeframe it would've to happen.

>>88541738
I'm actually better, I've just been sleeping insanely poorly since I got better.

Still nice to feel better though.

Hey gang, are there any current open contests? I mean besides the cipher stuff which I have NO idea how to even approach so I didn't even take a shot at.

>>88541738
All joking aside, I do hope they're doing well.

Same here.

That sounds identical to how I've been doing.

It's left me feeling 'ok', but I'm so drained I'm trying not to do to much.

Swoon.

>>88542302
>>88542129
I've felt like this for weeks, but I just chalk it up to winter semi-depression due to the wonky sun-time hours during the winter here.

>>88542536
Well, to be fair..

This is after I was horribly ill for half a week, and dealing with recovering from the damage down to it for another almost week (I still have muscle soreness and have been occasionally waking up with a charlie horse in the middle of the night.

>>88542577
For me it was a head cold and chest congestion/sore throat for about a week. The sore throat was pretty bad, I couldn't speak for a few days, and the coughing fits kept me up most nights. Once I got over it I was finding myself waking up after only sleeping a few hours, which is what's still going on now.

>>88542577
Sorry, I wasn't trying to belittle your actual illnesses, just stating that I don't think mine's due to illness so much as environment at the moment. more often than not lately, I just feel exhausted, no matter how much sleep I get.

>>88542536
>>88542642
Do you get no sun at all during the winter? I know waking up to stuff like rain/overcast skies makes me feel tired the whole day, I can't imagine waking up to basically night time.

>>88542642
I know you weren't.

I was just saying that while ours may be more specific to us both being ill.

For about 3 days I effectively didn't eat, and even once I wasn't sick I didn't want to eat because of how terrible it made me feel.

How do we know if someone on the list has already been gifted?

>>88542673
I think, currently, we get daylight from about 9:30AM-5PM.

>>88542792
There are 2 lists.

One list only has people who have not been gifted as of the last update.

if you want to double check, you can look for the 'purchased' selector when on their list (this won't show anything if the person deleted the listing after it was purchased.)

>>88538806
I'll be sure to add it to my list. How is Edmonson's run with Punisher anyway? I hear it has a rocky start but really improves as it goes on.

>>88542792
You can go to your own list and sort it by Purchased, then swap their code with your own in the link. That will bring you to their purchased list and you can see if anything was bought within the last few days.

>>88542813
That's right around how it is for me. I think the sun comes up at about 7am and goes down at 5 or 6. At least you don't have the 30 days of night and have to fend off the vampires.

>>88542875
Once you get pastnthe electro part it gets good. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The skull mask was dope.

>>88542875
The middle arc was fine but the opening and closing arcs were lackluster at best. He had a good look but the blatant art swiping took me out of it at times.

I do need Rucka's ruin though. If it didn't cost a kidney.

Many thanks to the person who gave me the Volume 3 of Transmetropolitan.
I'm gonna browse through the list and see who hasn't been gifted yet!
Apologies though if it doesn't arrive by Christmas, my wallet has gotten pretty stretched thin as is.
Also apologies for this crummy looking quality.

Hey folks. Finally all done with classes, free to enjoy the last week until Christmas and beyond.

To make up for last Saturday's painful Star Wars stream, this Saturday night I am planning on streaming some of the BIG Christmas Classics. I might find comics I can storytime through the week.

Hope you guys look forward to it!

Ok... I looked through the few people that haven't been gifted. I noticed that all these people customized their list to the point where you can't see if they were ungifted or not.
Like I see their "unpurchased" section of their lists but there isn't a "purchased" section. Anyone else notice that?
Cause I feel kinda iffy about getting one of these guys something on the off chance that they were already gifted and an ungifted anon gets looked over.

>>88543911
On my list at least, there hasn't been anything bought at all yet. I'm not sure if there would be a "purchased" section in that case.

>>88543911
You used to be able to switch to Purchased on stranger's wishlists, but can't anymore. If you want to view their purchased list you have to do what I said here: >>88542883

>>88543959
Oooh, thanks for that tip, much appreciated.

>>88544052
Another little tip, purchase lists may not be sorted correctly, so look around for December 2016 dates, they may not necessarily be right at the top.

May I think I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, everything just seems as an annoyance.

Just updated the lists, we're at 175 registered and 7 ungifted, a 96% gifting rate!

>>88544178
If you're talking about the one purchased on the 13th they didn't post their list until yesterday so it's not from us.

>>88544178
That doesn't necessarily mean they were gifted from the thread though. I'm sure if they were Elusive would have caught it.

Page 7? not on my watch.

Wow, I just realized that there are a LOT of Walking Dead trades on our shelf that I've not read. I got like ten volumes back in the day from my old buddy/roommate when he lost a DVD box set I lent him because he insisted I take them and Essential Tales Of The Zombie as repayment for the fact, despite my protests. I don't think I've read past those, but I guess the missus had picked up a lot more than that when she got into reading the series, as we have eighteen volumes now (up through Negan's first appearance). I honestly lost interest in the show after the first season, but I may have to check back into the comic.

>>88539234
>did you guys have a good weekend?

Yes. Spent two nights at the gf's, because I somehow lucked into being just normie enough to pull it off.

This story reminds me, is Wolverine & The X-Men worth picking up? I always thought it looked fun, but never checked it out. I think Amazing X-Men: The Quest For Nightcrawler was the most recent X-Men story I read, which, as an old-school X-Fan, is kind of sad.

>>88546129

It's very Jason Aaron. Sometimes he just does too much.

>>88546280
>You made out like a bandit there.
I forgot that I also got the Marvel MAX Zombie trades as well. He basically bought a ton of zombie-related stuff at our old LCS's 75% off New Year's sale and passed it off to me while REALLY overestimating the worth of a $30 GetBackers box set. Then again, he may've just wanted to be rid of them for whatever reason.

>It's very Jason Aaron. Sometimes he just does too much.
I liked his character interactions in Amazing X-Men, especially Kurt and Logan, but I didn't care for his Thor all that much outside of the gorgeous art.

Any good or bad B/C-list Christmas specials for that Holiday spirit (or a good laugh)?

>>88546721
It's similar to his Ghost Rider with over the top stories, old characters thrown in, his own characters being awesome at damn near everything. If you like that, it's for you. If not, avoid it. I had trouble enjoying most of the run because Aaron's writing there bothers me.

>>88546721
I still need that Marvel Max Zombie book, too. I have the sequel to it The Zombie Simon Garth.

>>88546832
>I have the sequel to it The Zombie Simon Garth
I think that one was the better of the two. Last I checked, the first one was fairly cheap too. I think the only MAX horror reboot I didn't read was Devil Slayer or whatever it was called. I recently sold my Hellstorm MAX trade, but kept Werewolf By Night, Man-Thing, and Zombie.

>>88547479
I keep Hellstorm for the art. I liked the idea they attempted in Devil Slayer. I have it saved to buy for later.

All around, I feel that /co/, /fit/, and /sci/ are the comfiest/friendliest boards. /lit/ and /jp/ are alike in the way that they attempt to actively dissuade newposters and are difficult to get into but redeem themselves occasionally unlike /a/ and /fa/, which are intentionally trivial. I'm pretty sure that the first two are eventually going to be removed at some point or will dwindle due to lack of newfags through their own efforts. Every board not mentioned is alright (except /d/, fuck them).
But hey, its just an image forum. Merry Christmas from a Chrismatheist.

Last month my gf saw my waifu folder of Magik, you can guess how embarrassed I was.

Came home tonight to find out she drew me a pretty decent lewd and on top of that, she started a Magik cosplay that I got to enjoy up close.

Suffice it to say this has been a good year to be in love at Christmas.

My Litten is pretty neat too.

>>88548334
She does sound like a pretty rad gf. And there I go forgetting my name again.

Just got back from Rogue One, pretty damn good movie. Surprised how it really steps forward into it's own as a story. Not like Episode 7, IE New Hope 2.0.

I only really visit /co/, /tg/, and /diy/ these days. Even then there's resistance and people being dicks for dick sake.

Amazon really needs a way to check what the status of incoming gifts is. Over two weeks later and I have no idea where mine are... damn Canada

But the ones I gave have all been successfully delivered, so that's good at least

>>88549902
Perhaps the person who sent them to you could give you an update.

I know a book I ordered for myself came in this morning and is still "shipping" according to Amazon, but it was from a third party seller.

>>88549902

I wanted to make a good Canada joke, but all I had were the stereotypes... hockey, Tim Hortons, maple syrup, etc.

how long does stuff take to ship anyway? like on a non holiday a package inbetween states or provinces or even between countries? Anyone have any idea?

>>88550762
Amazon's default shipping is UPS, which is the absolute bottom tier of shipping companies.
In general, within the states it's four business days unless you live close to one of their depots or the place that the item is shipping from.
which is why you should never order from them late in the week if you want to get your stuff quickly

As for international, I honestly don't know.

>>88550908

DHL is bottom tier.

That was a point of contention last year,

so... are these creations up in the workshop? The only thing I've found is Spider-Man. Also Central City by far has the comfiest theme in Unmasked

>>88553541
Well I'd be down for Rise and Dawn, those are some fantastic movies. I think I've only seen the first of the original series. Are any of them after Planet good?

>>88553806
Rise is actually one of the ones I find to be the worst haha, while Dawn is pretty fantastic.

Escape (the third one) is great in being silly and campy, Conquest is a prefiguration of Rise and I prefer it.

The only bad one is Battle.

Good afternoon! How's everyone doing?

Haven't had time to post much this busy weekend or give many thanks to the anon that got me Spider-man and the X-Men! Merry Christmas and thanks again! (obscured your name with tactically placed candy cane.)

The Bratislava based anon I gifted "V for Vendetta" Amazon estimates your package to arrive this Friday, making it JUST in time for Christmas which is great!

>>88554733
It actually arrived yesterday, I got the note in my mail, but unfortunately didn't have the time to pick it up in the post.office. I will snap a pic when I do.
Thank youu~

>>88554809
Even better! Merry Christmas!

There was an anon a few threads back who said they've been having a rough time and I'd gifted them shortly after. IT looks like their gift of Danger Girl: The Ultimate Collection should have arrived a few days ago (Amazon says it was left near the front door/porch). Let me know if you got it, anon, and I hope you enjoy it as much as the missus because it's one of her favorite series. Nevermind the fact that it's got an introduction by the man himself, Bruce Campbell.

>>88554733
Oooh. I was asking about Wolverine & The X-Men last night, but Spidey & The X-Men is another I've been interested in. I hope it's ever bit as fun as the solicits made it sound, Dutch.

Just a heads up for PhoenixN, your copy of Planet Hulk shipped from the UK today and should arrive within 7-14 days according to BookDepository. Sorry it won't arrive in time for Christmas, but I hope you enjoy it all the same.

>>88555047
>I hope it's ever bit as fun as the solicits made it sound
It definitely is.

>>88555232
No no, it's ok. I just hope my christmas money from my work arrives tomorrow so I'll be able to gift something to someone else.

>>88555047
Spidey and the X-Men is fun as hell and I wish it was 12 issues instead of 6.. Gonna have to get that one day next year.

Is planet of the apes livestream today or saturday?

Saturday might be some Christmas favorites on autoplay.

We've made it a tradition since my wife and I got married.

The kids and I change it up a bit, but the missus seems to have chosen a Batman-related ornament every year but one. She's gotten a comic version of Batman, Catwoman, and Harley, then '66 Batman and Catwoman, and last year's was a Wonder Woman '77 that plays the theme.

I've made the mistake of looking up older ornaments on eBay and finding a ton of awesome Star Wars ones that are way too pricey. They apparently made a musical one of the Modal Nodes that plays the Cantina music, but the cheapest I've seen it for so far was $50.

>>88557879
I mentioned before my mother gets us an ornament every year, but I don't really care for them, so I think I might make it a tradition to get one for myself starting with this He-Man ornament.

I just looked up the Cantina Band one and now I want it.

Here's a friendly Christmas shill for you all. A friend of mine is finally releasing the game he has been working on for a while, here's a trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XOSWhRdL3E It comes out on Christmas day 'Straya time on android. It was made for the artist's children, he wanted something that could actually make them think, it does get pretty challenging though, or at least on the build I've played. If you have the time and feel like it, download it and give it a try. I want to see this succeed for him, he's a great programmer and deserves it.

>>88561038
Not shitting on your He-Man decoration or anything Scribs, I think it's neat I'm just more accustomed to regular ol' baubles hanging from trees (and these Hallmark ones aren't sold here) though this year I did spot a range rover shaped one sold at a garden centre.

>>88561436
I didn't take it that way at all, just wondering why you thought they were weird. Some people do the bauble sets for sure, but most everyone I know has personal ornaments like the Hallmark ones. There was a time when I wanted to get an ornament set and be done with it, but I quite like having different ones like these.

Good evening everyone!

It's been awhile since I've posted, partly because holy shit teaching at the end of the year is nuts, but also I had hit my gifting budget already.

HOWEVER, I just got a bunch of Amazon gift cards and I'm going to pass on the Christmas giving to you guys by doing another contest!

Since it's a little last minute, I'm actually going to post recordings I've made in previous years. Same rules still apply, I'll give you guys until Thursday evening to put in your guesses, but I'll post hints tomorrow night if everyone is still stuck.

I'm already familiar with Black Pete. If you want weird, look up Spain's Poop Log.

Don't even get me started on this shit. My sister strongly implied she needed a comfy bathrobe and new slippers in which she could go out to the back yard for a smoke (it's almost never below freezing over here), so I ordered them for her, and a personalized lighter with a Freddie Mercury pic, because she loves Queen as well.
A package came in today, it was the slippers. I accidentally bought her child ones.
And the lighter guy can't handle pictures that are linked instead of attached, so today was a shit day for gift-related stuff.

500 man

I'm going home in two days and my brother's gift is supposed to arrive tomorrow according to Amazon but the mail has been super slow lately so I'm not sure if it will arrive before I leave. I should probably start shopping a little earlier next year...

>>88566161
I feel old suddenly. And there's no longer a time bonus for pictures I see.

Very well, this thread it is.

As I said, I've been gone for a good long while.

I'm dropping by to say three things:
1. 246KDL8BVR2BU .ca can be taken off the ungifted list.

2. 1AFNGL2SDUUM2 .ca can be taken off the ungifted list.

>>88554733
I'm glad it arrived in a timely manner, hope you enjoy it and that my (half-googled) Dutch wasn't too far off the mark!

>>88533617
I have multiple. Here's all the /co/ related things. I've never been on /co/ this time of year, but I enjoyed secret s/a/nta.

3. Can't mock the Shock.

>>88566247
and 4. 1396E7APOEHQ1 .ca

That is all. My hard drive with all my Christmas comics on it died so I can't help with storytimes this year. (I was the anon dumb enough to do Happy one year, so maybe that's for the best)

Thanks again! You actually got it right, though it's not as commonly used or said anymore.

Can I interest you in a storytime out of the following list?

>>88566642
Which Ant-Man isss that having a Big Chrissstmasss? If it'sss Hank Pym, no deal.

>>88566668
Yup, sorry Judge.

>>88566642
Starman or any of the Spider-Man ones would be really cool

>>88566668
It's a Hanukkah story. What should've been one slap lasted for eight nights.

>>88566709
Oh roll it anyway. Perhapsss I can get over my Pym allergy.

Since there already is a Spidey story some posts up I'm going to go ahead with Starman.

>>88566668
>>88566709
On the upside is that it's written by Bob Gale.

You should've been here when JSA anon did the entire run. It's a fantastic ride.

And I'm still pissed off at DC for cancelling the vol. 3 paperback printing. Twice.
