Secret Satan 2018 - Gifts Received Thread

That is correct. You are scheduled to receive one copy per year for 99 years.

A package appeared on my doorstep smelling of sulfur and brimstone.


First a lovely note.


Like many other Secret Satan packages, I feel like Satan just emptied out the junk drawer of the Abyss:











To be continued...

I like the retro theme of the box- well done. I think I previously owned that Dewey Evens baseball card when I was a kid.

Now onto the meat of the satanic sandwich:









An accessory for a game I don't own, a D&D splatbook, 2 decks of MTG cards (another game I don't play), and a hilarious adult party game. All excellent Satan package staples.

Now for the piece de resistance:


It even came wrapped! A highly regarded rpg that I had read good things about. I'm glad to have it.
I enjoy going thru these boxes of crap, and seeing everyone else's box of crap every year. It's one of the better things this community does. Thanks, Satan.

Either there are a shit ton of people not posting or we had a dismal turnout.

People tend to lag like a MOFO on this.

I've been doing my best to sort out what exactly my situation is. Barnes, I don't know if you have received any of my PMs but if so or even if not please let me know.

I've searched Hi and low for the tracking number Satan used to send my recipient the package but it's apparently lost in the chaos of my recent life.

Edit: Or it's in my wallet....Yep, it's in my wallet.

Yes, I got it. Took a picture and meant to post, but spaced it. Will share Satan’s bountiful blessings later.

I'd post if I got the package. Nothing so far.

My package is presumably waiting for me at my new place of residence halfway across the country. Waiting until XMas to open mine, anyway.

Space Ghost, your package of brimstone and treacle has arrived at your locale of higher learning.

Get cracking with the presentation, jackanapes!

An ominous box was lurking outside the garage. My wife refused to bring it into the house earlier fearing some sort of infestation would occur.




A note instructed me to open an empty container of nuts first. It contained this beauty:


I did try to drink some choice alcohol from the vessel, but no matter what is poured in, only Bud Light comes out. Devilish indeed.

Some assorted Warhammer Fantasy figs for Shadespire? I game I don't play. So far, standard satanic tricks.



The next layer revealed a couple decent games, one still included the punch out sheets. I must conclude that this particular helper of Satan is a denizen of the boardgames subreddit based on that behavior.




Receiving a subpar Magic clone is like getting those knock-off sneakers for Christmas that end up turning your feet blue because the dye was cheap like your parents.





My wife liked the Castle TV show. I'm sure she will like these in spite of your editorial notes.



More to follow......

More garbage:

I was tempted to include a video of me trying out the Buti yoga. Perhaps it will be a present for someone next year.





A Vulcan guidebook.



There was some Gaslands items under the last batch of detritus along with some candy fruit chews of questionable origin from Hitler himself.

A true follower of Satan would have only included the banana flavor.

Hiding at the bottom, as if it was afraid of being found, was a copy of Kaosball.



I was only familiar with this in passing, but it may be a good companion to Blitz Bowl at work. Obviously some poor sould in Hades felt that they had to make up for the Buti Yoga inclusion.

One final item:



A dog toy. I have no dog. This is the pet equivalent of receiving an expansion for a game you don't have. Well played.

This is the note that accompanied the parcel.







This was another great year! Hail Satan indeed.

I love how some postal worker slapped a sticker on the “hail” of “hail satan”
