G-Man does have a new game that just went into signups.

I've got everyone's information. You can expect to see your exchange assignment shortly!

Please let me know if you don't receive a PM from me by the end of the day.

At long last, all of my goodies have arrived! Now I just need to assemble it all and ship it out. Be ready!

Has anyone received anything yet? I think we got off to a late start this year. I apologize for that.

Mine came yesterday.

I don't have a picture handy, but I can tell you that nutella catered to me throughout.

Why, there's a packet of El Chupacabra medium roast coffee out of Gladstone, Oregon. "A serious bite and a trace of chocolate and hazelnut."
There's Tillamook country smoker old fashioned beef jerky.
Albina City Nuts Smoky Hazelnuts made with honey and applewood smoked sea salt.
Jacobsen Salt Co. Black Garlic Salt made with caramelized garlic.
Cafe Yumm! Roasted Garlic Yumm! Sauce which I've never heard of but I'll do her first chance I get.
And my personal favorite, the Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce, which has a cocktail recipe for hot beer on the back that I'm going to try, and probably commence to double fisting- the drink in one hand and a glass of milk in the other!

Thank you so very much nutella. This is a dream, an absolute dream. I feel like I won a prize.

Woohoo!! Glad it arrived safely. Enjoy

I just mailed mine out today! The recipient should be getting it Thursday!

Same. Though probably Friday.

Eliminated all in the same evening.

I'm a butterball.

Just like last year, I sent my care package out after Christmas. Keep an eye out!

Never fear - it's been a very busy holiday season, so my recipient won't have gotten their package, as I haven't sent it out yet. Rest assured, however, that it is assembled and just needs to be boxed and mailed!

That being said, my package arrived today, hooray! I did not find a note, but I believe it was from [mention]speedchuck[/mention], who just seems to keep getting matched up with our household (and correct me if I'm wrong, please!)



I've already eaten two of the peppermint patties and a chunk of the chocolate bark because I have zero self-control when it comes to either of those things, and we're digging into that tea tomorrow morning. Thank you so much!!

Need to see you again lady. Good to see you here though. Hope your Christmas was lovely.

I'm glad you enjoyed the gift. And yes, it was me, not Lunalee. :P

I was just thinking the same thing myself! Good lord, it's been a busy couple of months. Our Christmas was nice, especially the part when we came home, ate snacks, and watched MST3000 with the cat by our damned selves. It was glorious.

Got my gift yesterday! Some basil, Hot pepper jelly, BBQ sauces, and coconut cookies, which're pretty great.

oops [mention]Epignosis[/mention] [mention]Elohcin[/mention] I'm assuming since Buford NC?

Also my package should be there by Monday!

Buford, NC?

I know I have good penmanship, so I am going to blame the lack of quality ball point pens at the post office.

I have questions for the good folks who named their product “Bone Suckin’ Sauce.”

Typo?

I received my goodies today! Thank you [mention]Lunalee[/mention] for the tasty peppermint patties and the cute ornament. My girls are napping right now, but I'm sure they will love it. Interestingly enough, I consider myself more of a cat person than a dog person, and I am a Pisces, so the cat and fish fit me perfectly.

Glad you like it! I had fun making the ornament.

I love that ornament! It's so cute!

I checked the tracking info on my package I sent and it's taking a little longer than expected. Maybe by tomorrow

I received a package from [mention]sig[/mention] today! I've already eaten one of the coconut bon bons, and a few of the assorted chocolates. :P Looking forward to using the nice mug too!

Here's a pic of the goodies. Thanks sig!

And I want to take this moment to randomly note that I love speedchuck and Lunalee. They're good folk. If you have not met them, it would be in your best interest to do just that.

Aw, thanks. Love you and your family too, Epi. <3

[mention]sabie12[/mention] got me some RPG books, with their own DnD-lite adventure system and a few dungeons to crawl! I took a quick look, and these look very 1st-edition-ish. 80s-style. I'm going to use these, either as fuel for my ongoing campaigns and as their own thing!

She also got them signed, which is super cool.

Thanks!

Yay! I'm so glad you finally got it. I've been tracking the package because the post office told me it was going to be there last week. I'm glad you like it! I went to a con and the guys from the company were there signing books. I was like this is perfect since you said you like D and D. I hope you enjoy the game!

Very cool indeed.

I haven't received a tracking update in a few days. If it weren't for the holiday, I'd be nervous.

I never recieved anything so not sure if there was an issue with the package or anything.

I have confirmed that your gift is on its way. I need to follow up with a few others though.

Thanks to [mention]MacDougall[/mention] for the delicious treats.









I have eaten most of the Mint Slices, and Mr Koala is ridin' a moose...

omg, that's awesome

Dope

You could not have picked a better spot for the koala.

Cherry Ripe is the greatest candy bar of all time.

Nothing yet

Hey. Yes sorry I messaged you about it subtly on discord. Thanks I'll make a better post about it.

I had G-Man. He sent me some excellent stuff all Pennsylvania themed which was really neat.

I still haven't recieved anything yet.

If he didn't include anything from Philly then it's all trash tbh.
