Secret Satan 2012 Pics! Post 'Em Here!

Ack! Youngblood! A thoroughly wicked Secret Satan, indeed!

Jokes on you, sir! Space Cadets is tedious and overhyped! Oh wait...

And no, I did not send that package. So someone actually shelled out hard-earned cash for that.

Love the asymmetry here.

Got a small but tightly packed gift from my Satan a couple of days back. Since I didn't want to ruin the mood on christmas eve (yes, that's when we open gifts in Denmark) I opted to open it right away.

Inside I found some nice postcards telling me about all the cool games Satan has and how he'd love for me to come and play them. Grail games, he promises, which surprises me since I wasn't aware that Milch und Gurken was even on the market yet.

But also games ...

Before I kill you mr. Bond from Cheapass. It's the self proclaimed "better edition" and not the one with the totally renamed name and I think it could be a hoot.

Pompeji some abstract german card game about building stuff before the volcano erupts (because obviously you do not care about being covered in lava if you've succeeded in building the most buildings in certain shapes and colours). Could be good, but the graphic design looks like shit with brown stuff on it.

Vive le Roi which is (strangely) another German game. It's probably something about impressing a kingy dude, but then again it has both swords and an executioner on the cover so it could be not quite shit.

Robot Rampage: Rise of the appliance on the other hand looks like one of those card games that's just ... well, neither a really good idea nor a good game. And I see now that it has an average score of a whooping 4.29 on TOS. Not bad, Satan, not bad.

The rules for DaBol - el juego de Johan Cruyff which looks like a pretty interesting football game (that's soccer for you overseas morons) with loads of custom dice. I do read Spanish (or I used to), but with only the rules I'm not sure I'll ever get to play the game. However, I'm certain that Satan has heard about how I like to just read rules for the fun of it. Yes, I'm that crazy.

But the prize goes to two starter decks for Magic. They each come in a small box marked with player a and player b and tell me to refer to the play guide and to not shuffle. But the thing is that the play guide is not included and that I have no way of knowing whether or not they've been shuffled.

Oh, almost forgot. I also got a book about economic history in Danish, and since I only know of one Fattie besides myself who speak Danish I'm pretty certain whom my Secret Satan is. And he's a cool dude with excellent taste in shitty games. Thank you.

The cones man, that cracked me up. You guys are really adding another layer to this stupid tradition.

Yeah, that Youngblood issue is up there with Spellfire right now for shittiest "gift".

I wasn't aware that Milch und Gurken was even on the market yet.

Essen 2013.

I got an awesome package yesterday. Pics to follow asap.

Ha! My first thought was, "Rob Liefeld, ewwwww."

Hey Loter!

Lay smoke you dick, and report the contents of your Secret Satan packages!

Dear Satan,

Just wanted to let you know that I'm heading out on vacation tomorrow, so if your gift arrives between now and New Year's it's going to sit and wait.

So hopefully it doesn't contain anything toxic, or anything that will turn toxic.

If I come back and see a smoking crater I'll be coming after you.
