Fighting against the effect of the abundant wine that the day imposes to us, and amid the tears of our family and friends we have taken our dices to accomplish our fate. No better game that Twilight:2000 in these days of concord and love. No better place than and old and isolated catalan masia (country house), in front of the fireplace, to decide about the actions of five motivated characters trying to lead the way of their parent unit across Poland...and fortunately they have survived with the mission successfully accomplished. :cool:

hope you get this together this year too .

tradition sessions are great .

We have our summer boathouse tradition that is really an awesome time - every time.

bon natal - in Catalunyan -correct ?

Merry Xmas, Happy New Year

Didn't have time to check for new languages of our user base this year so a simple "Merry Christmas" to everyone must suffice.

Hope everyone has a happy holiday.

What's the atheist equivalent of Christmas?

I guess it's any time I have money...so it's equally rare...:p

Targan 12-22-2009 07:53 PM

Merry Christmas all.

I'd love to come to the Northern Hemisphere one year for a white Christmas. Here in Perth Christmas is usually blazing hot.

Grimace 12-22-2009 09:42 PM

You really should Targan. I'm sure there's some of the guys on this board that would put you up for a few days so you could enjoy some wintery Christmas rather than sweltering Christmas.

Bon Nadal HQ! And Bon Nadal to everyone else! Mmmm...I've been lost for some weeks. Hopefully I will have enough time to read all your posts in these holidays. A pleasant homework. And about our Christmas roleplaying tradition, it continues very healthy and with some new faces. Tradition is tradition. My best wishes to all of you. Keep your dices warm!

sorry man, I'm trying to help.

What about Boxing Day? (day after Christmas) technically it's Canadian, but it hasn't passed yet.

Adm.Lee 12-24-2009 05:06 PM

Merry Christmas from me. A special one to those deployed or otherwise alone.

Muti 12-24-2009 06:25 PM

Buon Natale, or merry Christmas!!

Here in Italy it's almost 2.13 of the night and it's time to go the bed because a loooong day is waiting for me!

I leave you with a nice Christmas video :D

Boxing Day is Canadian? I thought Boxing Day is celebrated everywhere that Christmas is. Certainly in Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

pmulcahy11b 12-24-2009 09:24 PM

OK, I give. What's Boxing Day?

This is basically cut & pasted straight from wiki
Boxing Day is a bank holiday or a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Germany, Greenland, New Zealand, Hong Kong, and countries in the Commonwealth of Nations with a mainly Christian population. In South Africa this public holiday is now known as the Day of Goodwill.
The name derives from the Anglo-Saxon tradition of giving seasonal gifts to less wealthy people and social inferiors. Until their distribution, these gifts were stored in a "Christmas box," which was opened on December 26, when the contents were distributed. In the United Kingdom, this was later extended to various workpeople such as labourers and servants.

Being agnostic I don't follow the traditions myself.

Legbreaker 12-25-2009 06:24 AM

Boxing Day, as I understand it, was a day for the servants to celebrate Christmas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_day

Merry Xmas to all my fellow TW2K friends.

I agree with Targan. I've never experienced a snowy christmas or even seen snow in my whole life. I should go over somewhere to the northern hemisphere during christmas to see how it is.

The whitest Christmas I've ever seen was in Korea. Three days earlier, our Sergeant Major had us have a giant snowball fight, under the guise of "Fire and Movement Training," as he put it. It was great "training!"

Merry Christmas a day late
