A Twisted View of the Gifts

So let's look a the gifts from CCP :

* A book : "Public Portrait : How to ". Right. Are they trying to tell me something??? But I'll hit back. I'll send them 'Game Design for Dummies'. That will show them.

* A piece of carbon. Finally a confirmation that they read my forum-posts.

* A pair of female boots. I've told them before. I don't cross-dress to satisfy the sick fantasy of some CCP-devs! They just don't listen.

* A Sukuuvestaa Heron. Bloody hell. A Caldari faction ship. I'm a Gallente pilot. What do I do with a blasted caldari ship? I always suspeced those devs to be Caldari-lovers. Just see what they did to my drones. What do you mean I need to turn it and the message becomes clear? Ah. like that. A side-view. Oooh. It's giving me the finger ! Or atleast I hope that is a finger. Not so sure considering those boots above. Where is that sexual harassment form ?!?

* 3 cards with names. Clearly a kill list. I'm not a pvp-er so it's probably a list of some suggestions for easy kills. Somehow I think they are setting me up.

* Snowballs...I'm sure that just another sick joke about drone-survivability. Yeah. Yeah. They melt as ice. I get it.

* An implant. Don't they know that I don't have a hole open for that. What? What do you mean they want me to use the other hole? What? WHAT???? THOSE < BEEEEPS >. I'LL < CENSORED >


Thx for the gifts and a Merry Chrismas to all Big smile
Disclamer : yes this is humor. Or atleast an attempt to it .

My Amarr pilot got Heron.
My Caldari pilot got Imicus.
My Gallente pilot got Magnate.

So it looks like it's just random.

Feh, be glad for variety. ALL of my accounts got almost precisely the same thing. One card different over all accounts.

Damn kids will probably be fighting over it too...

Some prankster gave me the Twilight saga! Must have been naughty this year! Sad

Edit: In fairness, I'm scrathing my head as much as the next person over these cards. Still though, it's nice to get a few surprises in the cargo deck. Big smile

Got the following:

- Military Experts and You
- Rules of Engagement
- Shuttle Piloting for Dummies

Is CCP trying to tell me something?

I mean, I know I suck at PVP, but really CCP? Do you have to rub it in?

Surrender is still your slightly less painful option.
